Hey guys. Arana here. With… something I need to get off my chest that I have discovered today.
I got my first flame reviews on this story. Only one of them I kept, since it was the least rude out of the four.
Why do I think people flamed this? Because I changed up the story with Mitari being the Heroine instead of Link as usual. And the fact that Zelda confuses Mitari for Link, and the fact that Mitari is a Hylian/Zora hybrid.
Now, I wouldn't be like this if the comments had been constructive criticism. That's why I kept the least rude one, I can consider it constructive criticism.
If you are going to flame me, and not give me constructive criticism, do it when you are logged into your account and not as a guest. This way I am sure that you are unhappy with my story, and can possibly fix things. Besides, hiding behind the guest tag gives me a feeling you may be too shy or just trolling me instead of seriously angry with my work.
Do not use my Autism as an explanation on why I choose this idea. And saying that I am "so Autistic that I do not want to not be Autistic" is very, very rude to someone who has Autism, even if it is half true.
Now, I will explain some things that I want to keep in this.
-Link will still be in this story, just as a ghost companion to Mitari, like Zelda was for Link in Spirit Tracks.
-Mitari is not my self-insert in any LoZ story I choose to make. My only self-insert in any story is Arana the Ten-Tailed (she was born with two and still gained eight tails, for clarification) Kitsune, who can transform to fit in with the story she chooses to do stuff in. Mitari may seem like a self-insert, but she is a fledgling OC who still need to be fleshed out.
-The form of telepathy used in this story, known as "connecting," does not allow one to see the appearance of the person they are connecting to. Only people who connect in person can use this over long range, but the connection bond had to be very, very strong.
-Zelda mistakes Mitari for Link because Mitari's aura, or personal "feel," is very, very similar to Link's, and since she is Link's reincarnation, she is connect to Zelda as that bond went to her when she was born. Zelda hadn't connected to Mitari before because Zelda had been focusing her connection-aura-tracking-thing around the Great Plateau.
-Mitari is a Hylian/Zora hybrid to change up the common idea of someone replacing Link. Instead of a plain old Hylian, Zora, or any other race of Hyrule, Mitari is a "mule" so to speak of the Hylians and Zoras.
-Mitari is engaged to Prince Sidon as an attempt at a peace marriage to a neighboring Hylian settlement that just happened to have Mitari living there with her mother, who is Hylian, while her father is missing, or in hiding. This initially unhappy marriage became one of love as they had to wait for Vah Ruta to stop flooding Zora's Domain.
-Gan, the horse, had been tamed by a random person who later was selling Gan because they could not truly tame the horse. Mitari had been passing by and had taken Gan since she knew something was off about hi.
-Mitari is not a Hylian man named Link because there was very little time and not enough choice to reincarnate into another Link. Calamity Ganon was already there and Zelda was still alive and there needed to be a new hero fast. Mitari was picked for her abilities because it would be useful in the situation at hand, not to mention allowing her to not have to truly worry about most monster so she could live longer and have the chance to be trained by Mus the Lynel.
-Yes there will be a story on why Mitari was trained by a Lynel in the future.
-This idea has been toyed with for a long time and I want to write it the best I can.
Please think twice on flaming me. Thank you.
