With Hyrule in danger, it falls upon the chosen hero to save the world from the ruinous plans of the evil king, Ganondorf. The same story as always, of course. Except this time, the hero is a she. And she's brought some serious backup on her journey. Nobody expected her to somehow befriend a small army of powerful monsters, especially not Ganon himself.

In an attempt to sort out his feelings and show his appreciation for Link, Linebeck writes him a letter- only to regret it the moment he sends it, his already-present anxiety worsening further.

New year, but old school! Shadow's dealing with grief, Link's dealing with financial problems, Sheik's dad is still transphobic, Midna's still in a political mess, and SURPRISE! Vaati transferred to their school! And he has two lackeys following him around . . . (READING BOOK 1 NOT REQUIRED)

The Rito collect shiny things to try and get a mate. It's a fact that is seen in the young Rito, presenting each other with shiny rocks and jewelry to please each other. Link's earrings make his heart ache in a way he doesn't understand.

On an unchanging island, the connections and dreams of two are bound to part. A re-telling of Link's Awakening focusing on the relationship between Marin and Link as they discover the truths of their world.

Or five times Volga actually acted like a normal human being without trying. Plus one time he had to be reminded of his own humanity. A sequel of sorts to Being Human (can be so difficult). Still takes place in the Never Possessed!Au.

Although the true fight with Demise has ended, Link still battles with the demons and insecurities in his head. He pushes away from the world, trying to find solace from isolation, avoiding the one person who has the ability to save him.

Elina was just a simple girl living in a small village with her twin brother, Link, & her Grandparents. Until the day she & Link went to Hyrule Castle to take the Knight's Trial. Join the twins as they save two lands from darkness.

"Your path seems to mirror your father's...but what if, one day, you realized you just weren't meant to be a fighter? Would you have chosen a different path?" How was Link's path like his father's? What was his life like before becoming the appointed knight? And how DID he claim the Sword that Seals the Darkness?

Link thought shooting down that hornets' nest was a good way to clear himself a path to one of the stolen Zora eggs. Turns out it wasn't, and now he's been caught by Aveil, leader of the Gerudo pirates. (Aveil/Link)

Ah, yes, it's finally time for Link to learn the story of who he is, and what he must do about Calamity Ganon... Unless, you know, a minor setback comes along that changes everything... Rated T for said, um, minor setback. (Yeah, we'll just call it that...)

After saving the region of Holodrum from certain doom, Link is treated to a farewell party by the inhabitants of the island. But he has one hell of an experience before he leaves, and that's only the start to his naughty adventures throughout the lands. WARNING! MATURE CONTENT IS INCLUDED! MATURE READERS ONLY!

However Lana, her remaining goodness has made unconscious wish on the Triforce that changes Link in unexpected ways. Link/harem rated for future lemons.

Calamity Ganon was stronger than anyone had anticipated. Link and Zelda gave their lives to seal him away in the ruins of Hyrule Castle. But an unexpected complication with Mipha's Grace has given Link a corporeal ghost form. Now stuck amongst the living, with one foot in the realm of the dead, he must struggle to figure out what Hylia needs him to do.

Another story where an AI-generated story inspired me. That added to the request to write something based on The Legend of Zelda series, considering I don't like the games and have not played more than like 20 minutes of them total.

Malon is feeling playful, and challenges Link to a milking contest. Who will win? Read more to find out! ... Oneshot. Written for the weekly LU prompt. Is technically Linked Universe, but could easily be read as simply a Link/Malon au.

It was just another day in Ordon Village, or so everyone thought. What would happen if Link got injured one day and hides it from the entire village? And who is that girl who looks almost exactly like Link?

Zelda needs a place to contemplate and breathe. Takes place after the memory: Zelda's Resentment.

Exactly what it says on the tin.

There once was a legend... of a being of pure evil. This being was so strong it could rival being such as Hylia, Majora, or even Demise, the goddess Hylia made a plan. She needed to defeat him to bring peace, and offered him to talk, fortunately he said yes, in his own stupidity she managed to catch him of guard and seal him in a mask. But.. is that really what happened?(OG on AO3)

Link is a member of the Hylian Rangers. When out on what was supposed to be a simple scouting mission, he encounters a new evil threatening to ruin Hyrule. Link will have to usher in a new age of heroes as prophecy repeats itself after laying dormant for millennia, or else he will face the death of the country he loves.

El esplendor de sus alas era todo lo que podía llenar su campo de visión cada vez que entrenaban juntos. Pero no era sólo eso, su porte, magnificencia y severidad en sus palabras bastaban para derretir su mente; él lo enloquecía de muchas maneras, incluidas las negativas. ¿Cuándo sería honesto con él?
