"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.

Trapped in another World(LoZ fanfic.)
Bri was a normal girl in a normal world. But one day she is teleported into a game by a never-meant-to-be released Legend of Zelda game and meets Link himself. Together, they both find their strengths, weaknesses, and fears on a journey to save Hyrule from the evil reign of Ganondorf. And then, maybe, just maybe, Bri will be able to return to her world and see her annoying sisters, Father, Mother and closest friends once again. • • • I was a young child (12-13 but I call all young teens children) when I wrote this story. It's not the best and it was highly inspired from Neriburns fan fiction. I really suggest you read their story if you haven't already-it's a heck of a lot better than what my younger self could've ever done.Complete
Back in Her Hands (NOT MINE)
[Original Description] Link has finally returned to Hyrule after being forced by the Hyrule goddesses to sit aside for seven years so that time itself can continue to flow smoothly. And naturally everyone is excited over the return of the Hero of Time, especially Princess Zelda. When Link tells Zelda of his journeys through other lands, one of those tales becomes all too real for the princess. What is it? Only one way to find out! To reiterate, this story isn't mine. It was written by someone going by the name "Grey" on VGGTS World all the way back in 2005 while the site was still active. While I don't possess ownership of this work and all credit goes to the original creator, I decided to upload it here because I wanted more people to read it, as i don't think too many people did untill now, which is a shame because I personally found it pretty good. If there's a need for this to be taken down, feel free to contact me. I'd be happy to comply.Complete
Botw Reimagined: The Past
After thinking about it for a while, I want to share a sort of reimagining of the legend of Zelda breath of the wild (skip bellow the following text to the actual story if you just want what the story is about) I have loved botw since it came out, however, I, like a lot of you probably, thought there wasn't enough to the story, and I guess the community has influenced my Invision of how botw should have gone, but I'm getting ahead of myself I want to make this reimagining somewhat realistic in terms of how characters react, but don't expect that much from me in those terms (how I want the story to go) this will mainly focus on building Link's past and actually giving him his character, but I will also somewhat change the other main characters, but I will make them as close to their in-game personality as possible (the actual story) Link has always been a prodigy in combat ever since he was a child. His father is a newly retired member of the royal guard and lives with his family in a ranch (if you know the location, you know what I'm talking about) and was the first to realize Link's skills. His skills were so good, that he was able to beat most adults, albeit with a suitable weapon and the adult isn't a soldier. his skills had gained him a reputation whenever they traveled. What kind of adventures will be in store for Link later in life? This is my first story that I'm willing to put out, I plan on getting this story and the botw changed story out, but I'll have to consider if I want to continue after that point P.S. I can understand that the first chapter may not be that interesting, so if you don't, then skip to at the very least character 4 or 5 as that's when the story picks up the pace. But if you stick through the other chapters, I heavily appreciate that as well. All rights to any named character obviously belongs to NintendoComplete
Legend of TUSM, a Zelda/Metroid Mashup.
This is a fanfic I wrote several years ago. I created a character, who is kind of a mix between Link and Samus, and placed him in the world of The Legend of Zelda. This was my first attempt at writing something on my own, so there are plenty of grammatical errors, and the story may not make a lot of sense. However, since I spent so much time on the story, I figure I may as well show it to the world.Complete
No Woman Beyond
"There isn't a woman in Hyrule or beyond that could satiate me like you." Alright ladies and gents, It's wedding season in Castle Town and on this season of the bachelor is non-other than the Hero of Time! Link has defeated Ganondorf and Hyrule has once again recaptured its' reign of peace and prosperity. Or has it? Mayhem has returned to the land of Hyrule as news sweeps the nation that the Hero of Time must be wed! The royal family will hold a competition/ball, and all are welcome to enter. However, our hero Link has only eyes for one girl... and that's you dear reader! (For the sake of the story we are going to pretend Zelda does not send Link back to the child timeline.) This is a Link x Reader romance and my first time writing something of this genre. There will be a PG-13 ending AND an NC-17 one. I'm giving a whirl at some smut writing (you can thank the lack of romance in my life for that.) I will add a warning disclaimer for the romantic and friendly ending for those that do not like strong, sexual content. A/N: I DO NOT OWN ZELDA! I kinda wish I did though because I'd be stanky richhhhh. All of Zelda belongs to the royal family of Nintendo and King Shigeru Miyamoto. Art for cover done by the fabulous wren stout! Whose art I use quite a bit. Wrenstout.comComplete

✔Love triangle (Miphlink, Zelink)
《COMPLETE》 - Note: this series is under ongoing editing - Before the Calamity, there were no troubles to face, no hardships, and no sacrifices that had to made for the sake of Hyrule. Instead, there was love. A blossom of new feelings to emerge and possibly old ones to die. Over time, Zelda starts to have feelings toward Link and tries to deny them, while Mipha already liked Link from the start of childhood. Link being his oblivious self, doesn't realize that the two girls are having feelings toward him. But once he does, how who will he choose? Or will he have to sacrifice his growing love for another in order to save Hyrule?

[ Discontinued ] When The Last Petal Falls [Link x Reader]
- DISCONTINUED Legends have told it themselves. If there was ever an era wherein the Hero had his heart residing in a girl not of the royal blood, it was the era of the Sky and the Wild. Your past reincarnations have went through a lot, two achieved his heart, the rest had failed. A twist was made after the era of the Wild, and things became hectic. It wasn't that of the human race anymore. It was told that Hero had lost his lover in the Era of the Wild due to her sacrifice to save his life, thus, in the next era.. You were born to be 'temporary'. Your only hope of living is for him to love you. But that isn't easy. Especially when you two are sworn enemies. - (This fan fiction is entirely different from the rest of what I did. The characters will remain the same, however, the setting will be altered. Like mentioned before, it isn't the humanrace anymore. This one is basically fantasy mixed with LoZ. If yu no like, I'm sorry. Thanks for reading though!) Cover made by me~ Disclaimer : I do not own you and Link. Have fun!

Noble by Nature
~~~ Sequel to Hero by Heart ~~~ Link and Zelda have started restoration of Hyrule, and are well on their way to establishing a peaceful, prosperous rule. But what neither of them expected was to uncover secrets that might have been better left hidden. After everything they have been through, it seems like they still can't catch a break, and danger is ever close, lurking around every corner. **Disclaimer: I started this story after the first trailer for TotK, so this is loosely based on those events, but is first and foremost a result of my imagination. Over the course of writing this story, I have added elements from the game as I saw fit. In the end it does tell a very different story.Complete
The Silent Princess - A Breath Of The Wild Fanfiction
Time has passed. Hyrule is getting rebuilt. Zelda on the other hand is not quite sure what to do. She is no longer a princess, She's a queen with responsibilities. A dark force is looming. Old friends are getting rediscovered but that boy. That man. Link. There's an unfinished story with him. This is my take on the universe. There will be new characters that aren't canon. There will be a few POV swaps but let's see if I can make this a cohesive story.Complete
BOTW: The Lonely Knight
It has been 100 years since the Great Calamity befell the land of Hyrule, leaving the once prosperous kingdom in ruin. After a century of slumber, Link wakes up alone with no memory of who he is. The voice of the long lost Princess Zelda calls to him, telling him to save her kingdom. With nothing but his courage and his name, he takes on the responsibility to put it back on track. But as his memories begin to creep to the surface, he soon finds not all is as simple as he once thought. Will he be able to cut himself off from his feelings to complete his quest? Or will he be swallowed by them, as every new memory unlocks another secret buried in his heart? A novelization of BOTW's story. (A/N: If anyone is confused about the writing style in the first few chapters, I apologize. I wrote this fanfic when I was still very new to writing. I was still using this odd script style before transitioning to a more normal novel writing style. I hope this clears up any confusion.) (Other A/N: None of the artwork here is mine.

Multiverse react to Y/N
As the title says, different fandoms will react to Y/N. All of the fandoms mentioned in the story exist together in one world. Basically a crossover. The backstory will be revealed as the book goes. I also want to apologize to all of you for not updating my books. In this 2 weeks I had a lot of assignments and essays to write and I'm finally free. At least till December, then there will be hell. Welp onto the book and ty for your attention.Complete
TP Link x Trans Reader (ftm)
One day you got transported to another universe, with all your memories of that universe being erased. You woke up in this mysterious world, with no memory of any of your past, or how/why you were there. when you suddenly you run into Link. (Cover Art isnt mine) (I'm not good at descriptions, but to clear things up, the reader is originally from this universe, and was absolutely in love with the Legend of Zelda universe before his memories were wiped. Oh, and Link is in a Abusive relationship with a made up character.) 《p.s, this takes place after he saved Hyrule, cause yes :)》 《Also, I forgot to mention, the lore and what not, like character personalities, is my own combination of the game and books combined. Forgot to mention that sooner, and finally remembered to.》Complete
✓Someday
After witnessing Link and Zelda's on and off relationship, Y/N had had enough. Link was always sad, Zelda was sad and confused. Everyone was just, done. Everyone needed a vacation, however, after the Calamity had struck, there was a lot of build and fixing up to do. Y/N is Zelda's younger sister, it was all good and well, until Link and Zelda started dating. One relationships ends, and a new one starts. *** A Linkxreader fic. Yay! Please know that I do not own any of the Legend of Zelda characters. This story takes place after the Calamity happened in Breath of Wild. This is also a year after. And in this story Zelda's father is still alive. Also, I added one of my own kingdoms. Added some of my OC's so I guess not everything is canon. Started: 8|20|21 Ended: 1|14|22Complete
