Shattered Times

by eatyourradishes

14 years after the events of Ocarina of Time, Hyrule is thriving- none remember the Hero's deeds, the Princess's sacrifice, and the Demon King's reign. This is changed in an instant, as a familiar, powerful threat returns, forcing a legendary hero to return home to fight for everything he values and loves, while his courage begins to die. [Rated T]

30. it's been a while (whoops) some updates

uh, hello lmao.

I haven't gone on this site in nearly two years, so I'm not really sure how to preface this, or if I really can.

I'm at university now, but because of quarantine, I've kinda wandered back to this "creative writing" hole that I dug for myself since I don't have many things to do other than make some word salad.

I notice people still check out this fanfic, which is really endearing, even if I kinda just abandoned it, which I'm really sorry about. Which regarding that, I don't think I'll continue this fanfic.

I can imagine that some of you may be really upset about that and that's understandable. I've tried multiple drafts of those next few chapters and I can't write anything that just...works I guess. It all comes out really bad when I think I have a somewhat good idea. I guess that's what happens when you sit on a fanfic for years and kinda lose that initial drive.

I hate to say it, but... I guess the ending is up to your guys' imaginations. I had one idea for an ending, but weave that little bit of it in your head and put a nice bow on it. I'm really sorry.

This fanfic is my first baby, the first one that I seriously shared with people besides myself & I got a lot of positive words that gave me serotonin lmao. I started this when I literally wasn't even in high school yet, which is really absurd to think about. I grew up a little.

I've actually been writing around another idea for a while, a little older, a little more up my alley now I guess. I'm planning to maybe start sharing that idea on here, maybe on Ao3 too if I want to make an account or something, I don't know.

This "being stuck at home" thing has really gotten my creative juices flowing again, and this sudden message is a sign of that. However, it's no longer towards this fanfic. It feels like a breakup which, breaks my heart (& I know the feeling, believe me, I still miss that dumb boy). But, it's something new, not necessarily with something different, but just something new. I hope y'all understand that!

I'm officially making this fanfic discontinued, so I no longer have to worry about it. I shied away from that label for a really long time but I gotta do it now.

Anyway, whether you just randomly clicked on this fanfic or actually have been following it, thank you. Hope you stick around.
