Preface

If you enjoy, hate or are lukewarm to any of my chapters/overall plot, please post a review! I want to improve as a writer and can only do that with honest opinions. Thanks!


Hi! Thanks for clicking.

Back in 2019 or so, I read SelphieKinneas' "What Makes a Hero" story and loved it. I'd played through the HD release of Twilight Princess and wanted a more meaty dive in to the characters of the story and see how the old ship of midlink would be handled in it.

I enjoyed every bit of it, so Selphie, thank you.

Then, I went and read her original follow up story to that, "What Made a Hero". Unfortunately, that one didn't grab me like the first one did. Sorry Selphie!

So I thought of a plot and decided to try and write one myself, a follow up to her original "What Makes a Hero". Five years later (currently Dec 13th, 2024), I'm finally two thirds done with it.

It helps to have read that before this, but it's not essential. You can generally infer what happened in hers if you've played Twilight Princess.

If you read it, then thank you. Your time spent here means a lot to me. I would love to hear any thoughts and critiques you have of it.

Edit 13/Dec: Apologies, the formatting is a nightmare on this site. Trying to fix it currently so the chapters don't show as walls of text

Edit 15/Dec: Think the formatting should be much better now. Deleted old chapters and re-added them

Edit 16/Dec: Currently got 29 chapters total. Going to update x2 a day as I write the rest

Edit 17/Dec: Published chapters 14 & 15. Please review and let me know what you think. 15 was a favourite to write

Edit 18/Dec: Published chapters 16 & 17. The plot thickens!

Edit 19/Dec: Published chapters 18 & 19. The plot thickens more!

Edit 22/Dec: Published chapters 20 to 23. Also got a swell of new readers! Thank you guys, even if you only read this preface

Edit 24/Dec: Published chapters 24 to 27. If you celebrate it, Merry Xmas! Nearly run out of finished chapters to post. Going to slow down my posting rate as I chip away at new chapters. See you in 2025! Thanks for reading

Edit 28/Dec: Published chapter 28. Sorry for the slow upload speed. Xmas was very tiring but very fun. Got a bomber jacket! Please enjoy chapter 28, it was a favourite to write and I hope I didn't take too many liberties with it. If you feel so inclined, please let me know by a review of the chapter of what you think. Thanks :)

Edit 31/Dec: Published chapter 29. And now we're all caught up to what I currently have! I'm going to keep writing as time permits, but expect a slower update schedule. At best, I can write a chapter per week. Ill do my best to not let this die, I've already written a fair amount. Please follow if you want to be updated when I post a new chapter. And don't forget to leave a review of any chapter you want to. Thanks!

Edit 21/Jan: Happy new year! Published chapter 30 finally. Thanks for being patient. Let me know your thoughts as major plot is revealed here
