First of all, I would have classified this story as a crossover, but I could not for the life of me find Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events in the books or movies.
Second of all, this story takes place in the Wind Waker part of the Zelda timeline.
Third of all, enjoy.
Picture happy music playing. A cheery forest. Birds chirping in the background. Happy bunnies and deers running around. Then, popping out of a tree, a happy little Deku leaf.
"Hello," the Deku lead greeted, "My name's Makar and I love you. Come frolic with me."
Makar then frolicked along the path leading from his house. He waved hello to some squirrels, bunnies, birds, deer, and a bear. He then proceeded to frolic along the path, playing his little leaf fiddle.
I am sorry to inform you that this is the exact opposite of the type of story that I will be telling you. The story I will be telling you involves death, sailboats, Zoras, pasta, quills, and Gramma's Soup. If you want to stop reading this and maybe read a Diary about a Wimpy Kid, then I would completely understand. But, if you think that you can stomach this, then continue on.
Hello. I am Shigeru Miyamoto and it is my sad duty to chronicle the events that transpire in the lives of the Hero of Time, Link, and all of his descendants. I've already covered the descendant whom could travel to the dark realm and the descendant whom possessed the Ocarina of Time and saved the land of Termina from Majora's Mask. But, today, I am discussing the descendant whom possessed the Wind Waker.
More specifically, him and his two sisters. Let's discuss them one by one.
Link. He was the middle child. He always wore those iconic green tights that the original Hero of Time wore. He was also crafty. He solved many a puzzles in many a dungeons. You could tell he was thinking when he took off his iconic green hat. He was a strategist. Always thinking outside the box to get himself out of sticky situations.
Then there was Aryll. She was the youngest. She was a pretty young woman. But, she also had brains behind her beauty. She had read many books in her Gramma's library. About nearly every possible subject.
Then there was Tetra/Zelda. She was actually adopted. Actually, nobody was really sure that Tetra was a she until they checked for themselves. Anyways, she used to be a pirate. But, Link and Aryll had taken a shining to Tetra. So, they invited her to join their family. She took a shining to them as well. So, she accepted. However, she still, in a way, kept her pirate nature. She still thieves on occasion. However, it was only small things and she would still return them and apologize.
Together, they were raised by Link and Aryll's Gramma. She lived them all very much.
Then, something happened. Something that made them ask questions. Questions like "Why are we on a beach," and "Why is a sophisticated looking talking sailboat sailing towards us?" When it finally reached the shore, Link, Aryll, and Tetra approached it.
"Hello children," the sailboat greeted, "I am King of Red Lions, the banker for your Gramma. And, it is my sad duty to inform you of an unfortunate event." The children were listening. "I am afraid that your Gramma's house burned down in a mysterious fire, taking her life."
The three children were completely blindsided by the news.
See what I mean? Pretty heavy stuff. If you want to stop reading now and read something more cheery, this is your chance. There's no turning back now.
Link, Aryll, and Tetra walked upon the burned down remains of their once home. Aryll was in tears and Link was stroking her back. Link and Tetra seemed fine on the outside, but on the inside, they were blubbering like Aryll.
Aryll and Tetra stayed in the living room, Tetra comforting Aryll. Link, on the other hand, had gone off to explore the remains of the house. In Gramma's room, Link found a box. And in that box, Link found a tiny telescope. Similar to the one Aryll have him for his birthday. This one, however, seemed to be coated in gold. Link decided to hold on to it in his pouch.
A short while later, Link, Aryll, and Tetra were sailing in the King of Red Lions.
"Well," King of Red Lions reassured, "Don't you children worry. You are going to be placed in the very caring hands of your beloved Count Gannondorf."
"We don't remember any Count Gannondorf," Link stated.
"Of course you do," King of Red Lions stated, "He's either your third cousin, twice removed, or your second cousin, thrice removed."
"Something's brain has been removed," Tetra mumbled.
"Tetra," Aryll scolded.
Not long after that conversation, King of Red Lions docked in front of an island with a cozy cottage on the shore. As Link, Aryll, and Tetra stepped out of King of Red Lions, a lady in her 50s stepped out of the cottage.
"Oh," the lady stated, "Who are you?"
"I'm Link," Link greeted.
"I'm Aryll," Aryll greeted.
"And I'm Tetra," Tetra greeted.
"We are here to live with Count Gannondorf," Link stated.
"Well," the lady greeted, "Hello there. I'm ."
"Hi ," the three children greeted.
"Well," stated, "Don't you three have such nice manners. You stop by and visit anytime you want."
"Wait," Link asked, "Visit? You don't live with Count Gannondorf?"
"Count Gannondorf," asked, "Oh no. He lives on the island just across from here."
points to an island harboring a scary looking house with bats flying around it and the tail of a sea serpent slithering on by.
"Let's sleep outside," Tetra suggested.
