"Princess!" he yelled after her. "Where are you going?"
"Back to the castle," she replied without stopping.
"Not by yourself you're not!"
"I'm sorry,"-she whipped around-"I didn't realize you were my father?"
"Your father, the king, would execute me for letting you travel by yourself."
"Oh, so this is about self-preservation?"
"Yes. Yours. There are monsters all over Hyrule now, Your Highness." Blue eyes pointedly looked her up and down. "And by the looks of it, you're not equipped to handle that."
She mirrored his scrutiny and scoffed. "What, and you are?" She gestured to the cairns beyond the trees. "Are you going to protect me as well as you protected them?"
Calamity is upon Hyrule.
The Goddess Hylia appointed but two children to prevent the end of the world. The powers they were promised don't come easily, and after years of outright failure, Princess Zelda can't help but wonder if Hylia chose wrong. It certainly doesn't help that the boy fate has tangled her with makes her seethe.
Devotion, heartbreak, inadequacy. Faith, perseverance, and courage.
This is a story of finding what lies within.

Authors Note: Hello! This is my first ever story and I was really bored one day so I decided to just start typing! I did not plan for this story to go for this long but since so many have been reading it and loving it I have been adding in extra chapters! Thank you for checking it out and I hope you enjoy :) P.S. Yes, this is a Zelink type of story but there is NO 18+ scenes between the two, I kept the romance light, HOWEVER there are slight mentions of violence and blood! Just a small warning if those topics make you uncomfortable :) #2 in Zelda #4 in botw Thank you all so much for your love and support!! *I do not own any characters used in this story!

Between Timelines: A Legend of Zelda Fanfic
One year ago, Link defeated Ganon, freeing Zelda and saving Hyrule. After not having seen Link in many months, they are finally reunited at Zelda's coronation on her 18th birthday. The circumstances of their meeting, however, are not what either of them imagined. This story takes places between the end of the botw story line and the beginning of the totk story line, and tells the story of what happened in that time. P.S. this is a zelink story, but there will only be fluff here, sorry :) Disclaimer: the characters in this story are not mine, they belong to Nintendo, and the cover art is not mine either. There might be some slight totk spoilers, so be warned.Complete

Tears of the Deity
Link, the Hero of Hyrule, has just learned of Princess Zelda's fate after seeing the final dragon tear. Overcome with grief, he sets out to seek a legendary power, one he believes will guarantee Hyrule's victory...and his revenge. But will he lose himself in the process? A HUGE thank you and shout out to @fire_bird_ana for making the cover art for this fan fic! She has some incredible LOZ art you should check out, as well as her own fan fic that I highly recommend. Author's note: This story takes place during Tears of the Kingdom, right after Link discovers the last of the dragon tears. It combines elements from that story, in addition to some of my other favorite Legend of Zelda games. Though I generally try to stay true to lore, at times I made adjustments to help things flow. I don't claim to be a professional author or Legend of Zelda expert, I just wrote a story that I would enjoy. *I do not own any characters used in this story.

Stayed in-universe and in-character (or what I consider to be in-character, though opinions may differ). (Special commission for Alana and Bri - Hope you enjoy!)Complete
