Prologue

Darkness, darkness as far as he could see and remember. Or maybe he couldn't see, he could be in every way asleep or worse, dead. Though he dismisses the thought of being dead with the ever glowing light directly above him. Though even if he is asleep and all this is a dream scares him, even the slightest chance that your entire existence will do that to a boy.

Besides if he is asleep, where is he? Someone must be taking care of him, or else he would definitely not be alive right now, but he knows of no one who would do that, though he didn't have any memories of anyone. This brings him back to the thought of being dead, and the cycle repeats itself.

This is the thought process that goes his mind all the time as he floats through the darkness that enveloped him so long ago that time doesn't even remember. During this time he has done two things, think, and attempts at remembering his past, after all, there isn't much to do in a sea of darkness.

No matter how hard he tries to recall he doesn't remember a thing about the past. It is like there is a thin mist that obscured all his memories, the feeling of knowing but not knowing like it's at the tip of his tongue. Despite all of this one thing has managed to slip through, a word. This word was Link, and he quickly selected this as a name, his name.

Though what was Link a link to? A link to hope and despair, a link to the light above him and the darkness all around him, or perhaps a link to the living and the dead. No matter what he thought of he could not find the answer.

Though he does have an idea of who or what has the answer. This brings him to the ever glowing light above him. It has always been there for as long as he could remember, he thought of someone on the other side of the light watching with curious eyes. This scared him at first but as time went on, it started to comfort him, he often found himself checking if it was still there. He also started to talk to it at times, but with no surprise, it didn't answer back.

Some more time flew by and he heard something, something quiet and soft. The sound startled him it seemed to be everywhere, echoing off of walls that the darkness concealed. Link strained his ears to not only find the location of the sound but also to hear what it was. The sound appeared again clearer than the last time but still incomprehensible, he instantly realized that it wasn't just any sound but words, words from another human being, With this he instantly knew where it was coming from, the light above. For the third time he understood, barely, it said "Link, Link, you must wake up"

Author's Notes:

This is my first time writing, so of course, it is not going to be perfect. I realize that I will need a few pointers in order to improve the quality of my writing. With this in mind, I will gladly accept any form of criticism.

I get little to no time to write every day, so just keep that in mind if it takes me forever to get the chapters out.

I will most likely be doing some slight changes to the story as I thought that the story was not as fulfilling as I hoped it would be. I will not list what these changes are to avoid spoilers.

These are the only notes that came to mind, I will diligently work on the next chapter.
