~~This fanfic takes place pre-calamity, but is more of a spin off.~~
The Princess of Hyrule has spent her whole life trying to figure out a way to awaken her inner power, she's read books, she's prayed to statues of the Goddess Hylia throughout Hyrule, but she's never once taken time for herself. She's never fallen in love, or even thought of getting married. So when her Father, King Rhoam Bosphoramus Hyrule, said she would be getting married to a prince she had never met... she was not happy. And to make matters worse, her Father has appointed a young man to be her personal knight. Will she be able to awaken her power with so many changes and in her life, or will they distract her from her responsibilities?

Force of the Wild
Zelda was everything a royal should be: poised, articulate, and trained to wear the weight of a kingdom with grace. But beneath the crown and courtly smiles, she carried a secret frustration. Despite years of effort, she still couldn't access the sacred light magic buried within her. And without it, she had no way to stop the destruction looming over her people. Link was a quiet guardian, always just out of reach, his presence steady but unreadable. Legends named him the chosen hero, the one destined to save Hyrule from a rising darkness. But legends said nothing of navigating a tense partnership with a defiant princess who had yet to awaken the power she was born to wield. As the threat of Calamity grows, the two must learn to trust not only each other but themselves. Because if they can't... the kingdom they're meant to protect may be lost forever. **This is a work of fanfiction based on The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. All rights belong to Nintendo.

Brave Maiden - The Legend Of Zelda
A young girl born as a bastard, Forsaken as the town's pariah, A lending hand that comes unexpected, The door to a new life opening, Visions calling for the destiny's hero, A divine call for one to rise. This is the tale of the Brave Maiden, the legend of Zelda.
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.

Mountaintops!
His motions were a subtle but steady pushing, an undulation of that warm frame behind her. His steady hand just over her hip was dimpling her nightshift and soft bellyflesh somewhat all together; the pressure was like the first of a line of dominoes, and Zelda bit her lip as heat woke to life between her thighs. His breaths came shorter against her ear, tightening the strings of her own flush, and Zelda began to pant as quietly as possible, wistfully curling her spine a degree and folding her knees together. A pinpoint of desire had focused itself at her core, Zelda felt keenly she ought to shout out and awaken him, but something unspoken held her back.

Χβ°ββ€π !ππππππ«π±ππ’π§π€* The Hyrulean Royal family found themselves in quite the predicament on the day the Queen of Hyrule gave birth to twins--two healthy, beautiful baby girls. They named the first daughter Zelda, hoping the Goddess Hylia would answer their prayers and keep the tradition of her unlocked the sacred power to seal Calamity Ganon. The second daughter, (Y/n), was hidden from the public eye at the request of the King. Zelda spent almost her whole life with government studies and prayer being stuffed into her face, her personal passions being frowned upon. (Y/n), on the other hand, had no duties to fulfill and instead studied alongside her sister, became a knight, and made a certain special friend. Despite having a place among those she's closest to, she still feels confused, as if something in her life quite hasn't clicked into place yet... ...that is, until her entire world crumbles whenever she realizes that her true purpose is that of which her sister had been promised her entire life. ππ€π§π πΎπ€πͺπ£π©: πππ πππ¨π© πππ£π ππ£ππ¨: #1 in thelegendofzelda #1 in zelda #1 in link #1 in linkxreader #1 in breathofthewild #1 in botw #1 in totk #1 in ageofcalamity #1 in hyrulewarriors #1 in zeldafanfiction #1 in hyrule #1 in ganon #1 in hylia #1 in nintendo ππ/ππ/ππ ββ€ ??? *ππ©π¦ π§πͺπ³π΄π΅ π§π¦πΈ π€π©π’π±π΅π¦π³π΄ π°π§ π΅π©πͺπ΄ πΈπ°π³π¬ πΈπ¦π³π¦ π±π³π¦π·πͺπ°πΆπ΄ππΊ π±πΆπ£ππͺπ΄π©π¦π₯ πΊπ¦π’π³π΄ π±π³πͺπ°π³, π£πΆπ΅ π©π’π·π¦ π΄πͺπ―π€π¦ π£π¦π¦π― π³π¦πΈπ³πͺπ΅π΅π¦π― π’π―π₯ π³π¦π±πΆπ£ππͺπ΄π©π¦π₯.

"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. [This story is set in a fusion of Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom, with a couple tweaks and some familiar faces'n'places from older games joining along the way!] Thank you for the #1 spot in the Zelda tag! π And thank you for #1 in PrincessZelda, LinkxZelda, Zelink, Midna and BreathoftheWild tags!!

A Princess's Problem.
Follow Link and Zelda's struggle to unlock her powers and help her father look after the kingdom of Hyrule. But what will happen when they are alone? Link and Zelda will have a rocky start but eventually, Zelda warms up to him and they journey through Hyrule together. They will face creatures such as Dodongos. It will include much loved characters from Twilight Princess and Ocarina Of Time and maybe a few others. This is the ultimate adventure packed with fighting, love, friendship and of course mind boggling plot twists. I also need your help with suggestions from other Zelda games and I will somehow make it into this fanfic even though it is based in Breath of the Wild. (I do not own The Legend of Zelda, it belongs to Nintendo. All fan art/ pics are not mine unless I have said otherwise) I do not own the Legend of Zelda game series or characters. I'd also like to give credit to the YouTube channel, NintendoBlackCrisis for all the awesome Zelda theories he makes that I take inspiration from. YASSS! I JUST GOT #1 ZELINK! thanks guys for your support, even if my ranking goes down!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.
