"A time so far back in the past, it has become legend."

Zelda's travel to the era of Hyrule's founding surely isn't a coincidence, and Rauru and Sonia are keen on helping her to get back to her time. But as time goes on, Zelda becomes increasingly concerned with the rising evil in this time, rather than focusing on returning to her time. She then realizes that there are sacrifices that must be made in order to prevent both times from certain destruction.

Dark Side of the World {A Legend of Zelda Retell} (Completed) by TheBoomStick
27 parts Complete
Link: a rogue troublemaker who steals from village people, flirts with all the women, and tortures the people of Hyrule. Living life the way he wants it, no rules, and not a care in the world. Zelda: a woman who gets tangled with the wrong people and doesn’t know that she was kidnapped as a child and is really the true ruler of Hyrule. She has a split personality where she thinks she’s Sheik, a worrier who fights for good. Ganondorf: the ruler of Hyrule who killed the king for his throne. He knows about Zelda being the real ruler but has kept that a secret this entire time. He also knows that Link is suppose to be the hero of time but doesn’t seem threatened by a rogue troublemaker. This story takes on a whole new twist of the Legend that I created. I do not own any characters, settings, or history in this story. This is just purely a fun fan fiction of the best video game ever. I hope you enjoy!
Age of Calamity: The Seven Anomalies by JJules95
20 parts Ongoing
Age of Calamity - with a particular twist. What happens when Zelda's powers don't just transport the small Guardian to the past to stop the Calamity? Seven ordinary humans: Maria, Julia, Marissa, Ethan, Andrew, John, and Gavin are sucked into their television while playing Age of Calamity. Now in the land of Hyrule 100 years before BOTW happens, they have to mask their identities and join forces with Link and the Hyrule Warriors to stop Ganon's resurrection. However, with a familiar evil prophet lurking through the trees and the Yiga Clan biting their ankles at every turn, do they still have what it takes? Can they defend Hyrule? Give all the characters to their respected owners. I own anything new! Beware, fools, the Eye of the Yiga.

"At least you have me to keep you company, huh?" you remarked, looking up at the rito cheekily. The flame licked at the bottom of the pot, crackling quietly. Revali only stared at you, feigning annoyance. "Oh, don't give me that look," You scoffed. "You'd be utterly depressed without me out here." Revali finally laughed a little as you nudged him playfully, content with the warmth he found in both you and the fire. • • • • • A cursed traveler stumbles into something bigger than themself, clueless to the incoming threats, but hopeful to make sense of their situation. This, however, comes at the price of aiding in the defeat of an ancient evil, known as Calamity Ganon. Stakes are high and time is short, but why not have a little fun on the side? • • • • • Cover is "Girl with a Burning Torch" by Johann Conrad Seekatz this story was called tardigrade but i changed it get fucked (No beta-reader we just fucking die!!! Gender-neutral pronouns are used to be as inclusive as possible, gay people are allowed) THESE CHARACTERS BELONG TO NINTENDO! Except for a few from me actually yolo

Just when Link and Zelda thought all was well in the kingdom of Hyrule, Ganon's evil magic strikes again. It is soon revealed that some of the dark lord's dreaded malice wasn't completely eradicated upon his defeat. The very little that remains seeks to try and rewrite history in Ganon's favor, by going back in time and erasing the existence of the four late champions. Now, it's up to the knight and princess duo to go back in time to try and stop the malice from destroying the kingdom they treasure and the friends they dearly loved. Cover art by Wazzitooya, and cover editing was done by me ✨

The Tears Of The Clock by LegendOfBink

It's best not to mess with time. Zelda has been searching for Link for years after sending him off for his personal journey he never returned from. She's the only one who believes he's still out there, everyone else has moved on but her. She's stuck in a repeating cycle, her mind only focusing on one thing. Link, on the other hand, has far less control over his own repeating cycle. ~*~ Cover art by my friend @bookworm6310 ^^ The characters, world, and The Legend of Zelda all belong to Nintendo. I only own the story. 9/28/18-- 2/26/19 First Published ~ 10/8/18 Total write time is five months!

When Link unwittingly unleashes a horror upon Hyrule, Zelda must protect this foolish prince and help him defeat the impending evil that is lurking in Hyrule.

Alone We Fight by SilvermistAnimeLover
16 parts Ongoing
"Well, Wild? This is your Hyrule. Have you figured out why we're here?" Time asked. "Yeah." Wild swallowed thickly, forcing bile down his throat. "Well?" Legend raised an impatient eyebrow, and Wild turned away. How was he going to explain this? He'd told them virtually nothing of his journey. How was he supposed to convey how terrible this situation was? That the Blights had been revived. "Come on. We're heading towards Zora's Domain." A gang-meets-Wild fic with an actual plot (I think). Featuring a Wild who's a tad more secretive about his journey. Linked Universe belongs to Jojo, and I'm just a fan. :3 Cover art by Quasar Crew
