Summary
The War of Eras ended suddenly. One second, Mask and Tune were fighting side by side, and the next, the monsters retreated, Cia bowed out, Ganon disappeared, and a portal appeared to take Mask and Tune home. They never even got to say goodbye to the Captain.
Years later, Time and Wind return to the exact spot they disappeared from with six more brothers by their side. Eager to reunite with the Captain, they set out to find him—but on the way, they run into a fairy fountain. And with the fairy, trapped in a bottle, is a familiar figure.
Aka Captain Link asks a Great Fairy for help with the War, and she doesn’t release him when the War is over.

Summary
Said someone else promptly goes sprawling, and Link sees it’s a kid. He peers up at Link with hazel eyes blown wide, seemingly frozen where he fell.
Link’s heart gives a pang when he processes how skinny the kid is. His wrist bones jut out of threadbare sleeves, cheeks thin, and Link can count his ribs from here. He can also see the fear painted on the kid’s features, plain as day.
Link raises his hands on instinct, taking a small step back to reassure the kid. “Ah, ‘m real sorry ‘bout that,” he offers, keeping his voice low. He carefully drops to a knee, making sure he’s just as disadvantaged as the kid is, and reaches out a hand up. “You alri—?”
The kid punches him in the face.

Ignorance is a Curse by Usagisama68
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms, Linked Universe - jojo56830 (Webcomic)
29 Nov 2020

Summary
It was enough to make him wish he was back in his cave, hopelessly lonely but confident he knew everything he needed to survive. It turns out his ‘everything’ was actually ‘nothing’ in the wider world; but back then ignorance was a bliss, instead of the curse it is now.
(When you have been alone your entire life, how do you rely on others?)

Summary
Hyrule’s nerves are frayed and shot.
So who can blame him when he finds the best tree and all but collapses to the ground, soaking in what bit of nature he can? It feels different than most forests he’s been in, perhaps because he’s not really connected to the land below? But it’s familiar enough.
What’s also familiar is the deep, soul crushing weight of everything he feels.

Summary
Three weeks ago Wild found himself whisked away from his home by eight travelers claiming him to be a Hero. His life has never been the same, but you'd be hard pressed to get a straight answer on if this change was for the best or not.
But now he's got eight brothers. People who he quickly finds he cares about, much to his confusion and inexperience with, well, people. He's only known what a person was for four months, and he could count the ones he cares about on one...

Sorcerer of the Wilds by OrcusNoir
Fandoms: Linked Universe - Fandom, Linked Universe - jojo56830 (Webcomic)
01 Feb 2025
Tags
Summary
The newest member of the ragtag group of heroes throughout the ages literally falls from the sky in front of them.
It doesn't take long for them to realize that he's not a fighter like the rest of them, at least not anymore. And that's ignoring the fact that he's a shy nervous wreck who clearly isn't used to being around nine other heroes with questionable social skills.
(AU where Wild is the last to join the Chain and he's not a swordsman like everyone else, but is instead a sorcerer because his chronic pain meant he couldn't fight with an actual sword anymore. He's got a lot of healing to go through with that, and the Chain will help him because he's one of them, even if a sorcerer Link wasn't what they were expecting.)

Summary
“Don’t touch me,” Hyrule hissed, his hand moving toward his hip like he was going for his sword. Legend realized belatedly that he didn’t have it with him. “I’ll - I can’t - I will not -”
“I’m staying right here,” Legend assured him. “Just take a deep breath for me. We’re here to help you, if you could just -”
Hyrule shook his head violently, overbalancing and lurching to the side as he did so. “No, no, you can’t have it, you can’t, I won’t let you!”
Or: We hurt Hyrule very badly. and then give him a hug

Summary
“I don’t know what job do you have for him, but let him be. He brings catastrophe anywhere he goes. Look at the land, look at the people. Hyrule does not need a hero” spoken in a bitter tone, it made Warriors furrow his brows. They were always beloved in their times, well, unless they ended up in a timeline where people forgot about Time’s deeds. It was just one of them, however. He was praised in Wind’s, it wasn’t like he was completely forgotten about or despised. It seemed that this Link however, was very much not popular amongst the common.
“Thank you, sir. Safe travels” he smiled as politely as he could, almost seeing Legend roll his eyes, even if the Vet was turned around so he couldn’t see his face. “So…I suppose we have to find another one?”
or!
your local hyrule-centric writer decided to write a hyrule meets the chain fanfic! includes a hopelessly romantic sky, gremlin wild, four being the only one amongst them with a funcioning braincell and way more!

Summary
Link paused, just before throwing the rope down on the far side of the wall.
This was stupid. And dangerous. He was going into unfamiliar territory, at night, alone. But he had put on the least ostentatious tunic he owned, there would be no better time, and he was thoroughly sick of his father’s shit.
He threw the rope down and started to climb. When he reached the ground, Link hurried away from the wall, grinning despite himself. He’d made it out.
Time for the dangerous part: exploring.
Or: Prince Legend goes for a walk. This has far-reaching consequences.

Summary
"Link had always been a stunning example of how an exception to the rule could unravel an entire system. How one instance of impossibility, one unexpected result could undo any logic no matter how world-defining.
And for as long as Link could remember, his entire world had been governed by one rule: survival of the fittest."
A look at Hyrule and his home, and what would happen if he was ever truly cornered.
