This is my first published fic, so bear with me. Let me make myself clear:
I don't own Zelda, or any of its characters, though I do own my
characters. Please, Nintendo, don't sue me, I am a poor college student,
not able to feed myself, due to lack of money.
Ok then, now let me explain some things: My fic will start out several years after the events of the first Zelda game (The Legend of Zelda, for NES) and I will be using a Timeline similar to the one in use at www.Zeldauniverse.net, with a few modifications and such to abide my story, I don't own their stuff either.
I am, as I said, using the Timeline there, modified as I need it to be to help my story make sense. Here it is:
I use Hylian Ancient Era, instead of what the actual site says: "Hyrulian Chronology" because "Hyrulian Chronology" doesn't sound right to me. Below are the highlights as I see fit.
