Old Grudges Look What They Can Cause

by Dovahkiin's Reckoning

Legend of Zelda fic. Post game, so finish it first! When the kingdom of Hyrule is grief stricken, by the tides of a war with a kingdom overseas, shall the Hero once again emerge to save them, from the fury of a young king. Can Link put aside his own feelings and fears to protect those of all others, or will he fall victim to the terrors of war? All of this caused by an Old Grudge.

1. Lengthy Summary

Dear readers,

So, this is not the first chapter to a new story I know. This is just a lengthy summary of what I'm going to be doing. First to discuss is the idea. I plan on making this a multi chapter story called Old Grudges… Look What They Can Cause, Based off of The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess. The story will be updated every one to two weeks. So that most likely means that every Sunday or every other Sunday you can expect an update to this story. If anything comes up that would cause any delay in the updating process then, I promise, I will inform you right when I know of it. That way you won't be coming here all excited (or unexcited depending upon whether or not you like the story) and then be disappointed when there's nothing there. And if that does ever happen please feel free to send me as many hate messages as you desire! Ummm … I plan on posting the first chapter on December… let's see (checks calendar on phone) … Sunday December 9th 2012!

Alright next on the agenda, The Plot, Ooooohhhhhhh! Bear with me hear it may be a little choppy. I haven't exactly figured out all of the kinks yet. The story takes place post Twilight Princess. That means this is after you've finished the game (which was amazing!). So if you have not finished and or played the game then I would seriously advise you not to read this story. If you read it and have not finished the game it totally kills the intense affect the game gives off! "So heed my warning! Turn back and finish the game! Then come here and read my story." Now, for the "actual" plot of the story. Now I don't want to give too much away too soon here, so it'll be just enough to leave you wanting more . It starts out with Link leaving Hyrule Castle Town right before Princess Zelda can announce to all the citizens, gathered there for the big ceremony to thank the hero who saved them, who he is. He leaves because he doesn't want anyone to learn of his identity, to make sure that no one would be put in danger because of it (Ya know all "lone wolf", "hero" like). So he resumes his life as a lowly rancher in Ordon village. All the while trouble is brewing overseas in the land of Atlem where the king lays on his death bed and his son, whom has a long standing grudge against Hyrule, for killing his Uncle Mordas in a battle long ago, makes preparations to claim the thrown. And you can only assume what will happen when he has the power to control one of the largest armies in the world, rivaled only by Hyrule, plenty of allies at his back, a treasury to make the richest man in the world's jaw drop, and when his grudge grows heavier than ever. And I'll stop there…. That was pretty intense, huh? Did it leave you wanting more like I said?... I thought so. What did you think? Please let me know.

So that's about all that I really had to say, so ummm... I guess that means it's your turn. Let me know what you think. Oh and if you have any suggestions as to where the story could go, characters that could pop up, plot ideas, anything really, let me know about that as well. Ooooohhhhhhh, I can't wait!
