A deaf and silent stableboy kept as a slave in the Great King's palace finds his monotonous life interrupted by a mysterious stranger. The events that follow his liberation serve to shape himself, his comrades, and to his great surprise, the destiny of the entire country of Hyrule.

Three strangers, three curses, and a smiling man who knows far too much. When Zelda, Ganondorf, and Link are given an opportunity to free themselves from their fates, they find themselves embarking on a quest that will take them to all corners of Hyrule in search of a mysterious power said to grant wishes. They just have to survive long enough to find it.

In the throes of war, Calamity Ganon pierced Link, striking him down. The Princess swiftly sealed Link away, but unbeknownst to them, he had been infected with Malice. For 100 years it festered inside him, transforming him into something less than Hylian. Though on the outside a monster, a hero lies within, and in spite of his trials, he will rise to right the wrongs of Hyrule.

As Ganon attempts to renew his grip on Hyrule, Link sets out to reclaim the Sheikah-built Divine Beasts to combat him - as well as his own memories. As he does, Hylia's fallen Champion grapples with the true cost of his failure and the harrowing guilt that assails him. This contains the first two volumes of a six-book series based on The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

"But courage need not be remembered... for it is never forgotten." Though struggling with both the loss of memory and the incredible weight of past failure, Link must find a way to recover what has been lost and bring hope back to the land of Hyrule. An epic fantasy-style novelization of Breath of the Wild. Complete, with afterword and deleted scenes!

"I don't know who I am," he said. "You took that from me. You took everything from me. There was a woman who loved me, and I don't know if I loved her back. I stood at her grave and I felt nothing. That's your fault." How do you mourn if you don't know what you've lost? Post-BOTW.

A hero is someone courageous and empathetic. A hero is someone who will bear their duty to those in need with a smile. A hero is someone who will do what must be done, even if it's painful. A hero is someone who knows the true meaning of sacrifice. By this definition, Link was a hero to a fault.
