Hello, anon! Aww, thanks for the kind comment! You have a nice day/night too! Anyways, a Legend x Mermaid Reader, huh? Alrighty then! My askbox is always open for Linked Universe x Reader and LU drawing requests!
Anyways, onto the story!
Making A Splash
Y/N was a mermaid, a very rare creature to see. Most thought they were merely myths or legends. Most people assumed it was just people misinterpreting seeing manatees for the first time. Well, mermaids did exist and Y/N was one. Most mermaids stayed in secluded areas deep in water faraway from Hylians.
Though some mermaids were curious about Hylians and would linger in areas where Hylians were. Beaches and islands were popular choices. Sometimes they lurked in lakes, rivers, and in caves behind waterfalls. It didnât always end well for the mermaids who lingered around Hylian areas. They often got captured for various purposes, and none of them good.
They were captured for their scales. Their scales were desired for make jewelry, to make potions, and to scalp for really high prices. They were also captured because of their beauty. Both as a slave or as a wife. They were never treated very well and would frequently die because they were away from water too long.
Many mermaids didnât like Hylians all that much due to their fellow kin having awful experiences. So theyâd warn each other to hide as best as you could and to be careful if you do encounter a Hylian. Some didnât always fully listen despite being warned a lot.
Y/N happened to be one of them. She was tired of hearing it over and over again. She wasnât stupid, she knew to be careful! She was always on the lookouts for danger whenever she happened to swim near where Hylians were. She also knew not to linger too long in one spot.
âŚ
She had been swimming around near a popular beach. She was saying hello to the fish and other sea creatures as she swam on by. Unsurprisingly, she found trash littered by Hylians. Didnât they have specific places to dump their trash, why in the water?!? Y/N sighed and started collecting the trash.
She had practically gotten armful of trash! Sheesh, the Hylians have been messy and lazy lately. She surfaced with her armful of trash and swam to the shoreline. She dumped the trash onto the beach; hopefully a nice Hylian will come pick it up. She then swam away from the shoreline and dived back down.
She repeated this process a few more times. She also had to rescue a few creatures. She gently picked hooks out of the mouths of fish. She also freed some young turtles that had their heads stuck in empty bottles. These poor things, all getting hurt by lazy HyliansâŚ
It was exhausting work, both doing cleanup and saving animals. She knew that sheâd need a nice meal and a good nap once she got home. She did a brief swim around the edges of the beach again. Looks like she got everything taken care of! She felt that she did good today; time to head back home!
She did some stretches to reveal some stiffness. Ah, thatâs better. Now itâs actually time to head home. Faster than she could react, she suddenly got ensnared by a huge fishing net! Uh oh.
She was abruptly hoisted up out of the water, along with a poor school of fish. The fish flopped around in a panic from being out of the water. The ropes of the fishnet dug painfully into Y/Nâs skin and scales.
âOh ho! Looks like we nabbed a mermaid!â a nasty voice chuckled.
âWow, sheâs a beaut!â another nasty voice stated.
âI want her scales to get loads of money!â a third nasty voice said.
âNo! I want her as a wife!â a fourth nasty voice snapped at the nasty voice.
Y/N managed to twist herself around in the net to face the voices. She had been clearly captured by Hylian bandits! They looked and smelled awful. They didnât take good care of themselves, especially their teeth. She wasnât sure what they were going to do with her, but it wasnât going to be good regardless.
âŚ
The bandits dragged her to their base. They didnât care that the net got snagged on things along the way. Each time it got caught on something, itâd dig into Y/N painfully on various spots. The fish that had been captured along with her had all died. These poor fish didnât deserve thisâŚ
The banditsâ base happened to be nearby a lake. So they freed Y/N from the net roughly, causing some rope burns on her. They then unceremoniously dumped her into the water.
âYouâre staying in there until we decide what to do with you.â one of the bandits stated gruffly.
Itâs not like Y/N had much choice. She wasnât very strong or resilient. Some mermaids have escaped their Hylian captors by crawling away on their hands and dragging themselves along until they reached water again. They couldnât move very fast, so theyâd either get captured again or theyâd die before reaching water. Some mermaids had the magic capabilities to transform their tail into legs so they could run away faster.
The water in this lake made Y/N feel sick. It was a bit too polluted for one. She was an ocean mermaid, not a freshwater mermaid. So the lack of salt plus the pollution made her weak and nauseous. She didnât complain and tried to power through it because she knew that these Hylian bandits didnât really care for her welfare.
She bided her time, waiting for the bandits to leave for pillaging. She had found a window to try to escape about a week after sheâd been captured. Everyone had gone go to pillage and probably wouldnât be back for a while or even a few days! She hoisted herself out of the lake and began dragging herself forward. Hopefully the nearest ocean wasnât too far awayâŚ
She had made some mild headway with escaping. Her luck was about to run out. Not all of the bandits had left to go pillaging. One had been ordered to stay behind to keep an eye on the mermaid. He had caught sight of Y/N escaping and hurried after her.
He quickly caught up to her. He roughly grabbed her by the fins of her tail. It caused her to yelp in pain and she tried to fight him off. She wasnât strong enough or flexible enough. He easily tightened his grip and put another hand on her to keep her still.
He dragged her, purposefully going on a path with pebbles. Sheâd gotten pretty scratched up by the time they reached the lake again. He flung her back into the lake like a bag of soil. Being thrown in the water like that hurt. He wasnât done causing her pain.
He fished out a lightning element magic rod and started zapping her with it! She screamed and screamed in pain, pleading him to stop. He eventually stopped when she was about to pass out from pain.
âDonât think about trying to escape again. If you do, youâre getting zapped.â he growled.
âŚ
And so Y/N made sure not to try escaping again. She swam morosely in the lake from then on. She was feeling sicker and lonely. She really hoped that someone would come rescue her. She had a feeling she might die before that happens.
âŚ
Again, the bandits were gone to go pillaging again. Y/N knew not to try to escape again. There was probably someone hiding, but keeping an eye on her. She suddenly heard voices and the footsteps of boot-cladded feet. It canât be the bandits, they wouldnât be back this early.
She knew to be cautious, it could be another group of bandits coming to raid this base. She silently dived underwater, trying to not choke and gag on the pollution. She kept an eye on things around the surface of the water. She was able to make out nine figures of varying heights. They moved too orderly and calmly for bandits.
Were they Hylian knights coming to investigate bandit activity? She swam a bit closer to the surface. They werenât really dressed like knights, but they were armed to the teeth like knights though. She was immensely curious about them. She knew to stay hidden incase they were dangerous.
âŚ
The Chain had came across a seemingly abandoned bandit base. There were signs that the residents of the base had been here recently. They mustâve recently left to go pillaging. The Chain wandered around, keeping an eye out for potential bandits in hiding. They had found some stolen goods that had been reported as missing, so they picked it up and pocketed it.
They were about to leave when they heard something splash in the nearby lake. It immediately piqued their attention. Something large must be in it. They cautiously approached the lake, anticipating a monster to jump out. The water surged and a woman surfaced instead!
The woman gasped shakily and collapsed onto the edge of the lake. She looked weak and sickly. They did notice that the lake was polluted. Her breathing sounded a bit raspy. It was clear sheâd been suffering for a while.
They noticed something odd about her. She had weird slits on her neck. They suddenly fluttered weakly. Were those gills?! Her ears also looked more like fins.
They then saw her tail flick weakly above the water. It was scaled and had large fins much like a fish. What was this creature? Almost everyone in the Chain had never seen something like her. Legend had seen only one of her kind before; he knew she was a mermaid. He was the first to approach her.
âHey, are you alright?â he asked softly as to not startle her.
She blearily opened her eyes. âDonât⌠feel⌠goodâŚâ
Legend could see that. She was pale and her skin was clammy. She had various wounds on her body and even had a few scales missing. Those missing scales had to have been torn off for selling purposes. She had burns on her body, both rope burns and what looked like lightning magic burns.
She had clearly been tortured; how disgusting. Legend motioned Hyrule to come closer. She needed her wounds healed first and foremost. And so, Hyrule activated his Life spell. Her wounds got healed, just leaving behind faint scars. Her breathing got less shallow, her clamminess faded, and her color returned some.
âThank youâŚâ she thanked him.
âOf course. Now letâs get you back to the ocean.â Legend replied.
Legend gently scooped her up, bridal style. He jerked his head, motioning the others to follow him. So they did, keeping guard around the pair. It was a tense journey to the nearest ocean. They thankfully reached it without any problems.
Legend gently put her back in the water. She almost immediately got better. Her breathing returned to normal and all of her color was back. Her eyes lit up with life again. Her scales seemed to shimmer in shine.
âThank you so much!â she said.
âYouâre welcome.â he replied.
âHey, Iâm Y/N. Whatâs your name?â she asked.
âYou can call me Link.â Legend answered.
âWhat a nice name!â she said.
Then she suddenly took a whiff of him. âHey, I must not be the first mermaid youâve been around! One mustâve given you the ability to become one. Itâs faint thoughâŚâ
Legend was surprised that Y/N pieced that together. âUm, yeah. Years ago though.â
âDo the scales you get pink like that bit of your hair?â she asked.
âY-yes.â Legend stuttered, blushing slightly.
âHey, no need to be embarrassed! Pink is pretty color on anyone!â she exclaimed.
Legend didnât reply, so Y/N continued talking. âAnyways, thanks again for saving me! I should really head home now. Everyoneâs probably worried about me. Goodbye!â
He waved awkwardly. âNot a problem. Bye.â
âŚ
And so Y/N returned home safely, much to the relief to her family and friends. That Link guy was an oddly nice Hylian. Legend had found her odd, just like the other mermaid heâd met.
The End!
I hope you liked it, anon! Again, my askbox is always open for LU x Reader and LU drawing requests!
What if the Chain had the reader to join them always though they were a boy ... they looked like a boy and had a boy name...
But after some days of travelling they find out they a GIRL!
And then love at first sight â¤ď¸
Warriors x Reader
Will the Reader return the feelings or... break someone's heart!
Hello, anon! A Warriors x Reader, huh? The first name I could think of that is a unisex name was Taylor, so thatâll be Readerâs name for this fic only! Anyways, Iâll get on writing it! My askbox is always open for Linked Universe x Reader and LU drawing requests!
Anyways, onto the story!
Youâre Tailored To My Fancy
A new member has joined the Chain! He wasnât a Link or a hero. He was a mere traveler that would occasionally save villagers from monsters. His name is Taylor. Though he wasnât anywhere as skilled the heroes with fighting, he was a good tailor. He and the others thought his name was hilariously fitting for what he was skilled at.
With how often they all had to fight monsters, it kept Taylor busy. Tears and holes in clothes were very common; both big and small. Stains from grass, dirt, and blood(both monster and the groupâs) were common too. Thankfully Taylor knew how to clean out stains. He also carry spare pieces of cloth in his bag to stitch in when the damage wouldnât be able to be repaired by just sewing.
Taylor made sure to be careful, leading to him getting the least injuries and the least clothing damage. These heroes were quite reckless with their safety! Sure, the monsters needed to be killed as soon as possible, but they needed to be careful too! They all needed to think first, act later. Not the opposite!
Taylor had the closest bond with Warriors out of everyone in the group. They had a very siblings based dynamic. They liked to fight alongside each other and liked to do activities together. Theyâd roughhouse with each other too, plus some hair ruffling. They liked to playfully steal each otherâs things and bits of each otherâs food; Warriorsâ scarf was the frequent item that got stolen.
Despite the sibling bond they had, Taylor felt that he was falling in love with Warriors. He was so cool, so handsome, and so nice despite everything heâd gone through. Taylor was honestly a little jealous. But would Warriors fall in love with Taylor if he revealed who he truly was?
âŚ
Taylor had been in the middle of combing through hair to get ready for the day. Just the undershirt and pants were on, but other layers hadnât been put on yet. Ah, the tangles are out! Then a knock on the inn room door was heard.
âHey, Taylor? You decent? Can I come in? I want to ask your opinion on something.â asked Warriorsâ voice from the other side of the door.
Taylor had only been listening at the end of his sentence. âHmm? Yeah, go ahead!â
The door then opened and Warriors strolled in obliviously. âHey, Taylor. Do you think I should-â
Why did he suddenly stop talking? Wait- Iâm not fully dressed yet! Oh no. Here comes the fallout between us.
âT-Taylor? Y-Youâre a woman?!â Warriors sputtered out in surprise.
âUm, yeah? Sorry for not telling you or anyone else soonerâŚâ Taylor admitted.
âWow⌠Youâre beautifulâŚâ Warriors mumbled, his tone showing clear awe.
She blushed redder than a red rupee. âYou really think so?â
âOf course!â Warriors replied ecstatically.
âYouâre not mad that Iâve hidden that Iâve been a woman the entire time?â Taylor asked shyly.
âNot at all. But you shouldâve told us sooner though.â Warriors assured.
âI was worried that Iâd get backlashâŚâ Taylor said.
âYou didnât have to worry. All of us have met fine female fighters. Iâm glad you told me actually.â Warriors stated.
âHuh? Why?â Taylor asked.
âI knew there was something special about you.â Warriors started.
âYou had suspicions then, huh.â Taylor replied.
âI had to learn to keep a keen eye on those around me.â Warriors mumbled bitterly.
âIs there a reason youâre bringing this up?â Taylor said, knowing Warriors was getting to a point.
âIâve actually started developing a crush on you.â Warriors admitted.
âSeriously? Me too!â Taylor practically squealed.
Warriors wrapped an arm around her and had a suave smirk on his face. âYou and I should go on date. You in?â
âYou bet I am!â Taylor replied, wrapping an arm around him too.
âŚ
And so, Taylor and Warriors had went on a date once the rest of the Chain got over the reveal that Taylor was actually a woman, and not a man. The pair went to a candlelit dinner at a fancy restaurant. Of course, the date ended with a passionate kiss between the two. Whenever there was downtime, theyâd go on dates. The others were glad when they did.
One reason was because it was nice to see two people much happier than they used to be. The other reason was that it gave the others a brief break from those twoâs cringy lovey doveyness. If the journey to hunt down the Shadow ever ended, a wedding and wedding rings will be involvedâŚ
The End!

Angst with a happy ending of Reader and Legend? :D
Legend and reader got into a heated argument and have been avoiding talking to each other. Both are still mad, but truthfully, they do want to apologise to each other, so they subtlety (although it is very obvious to the Chain's perspective) did favours to each other without both of them knowing
Tired of this, one of the boys demanded they stop and finally communicate with each other, so they privately had a talk with each other
(Im so sorry if my english is bad :'D)
Hello, anon! Donât worry, your English is understandable enough! An angst to fluff Legend x Reader, huh? Okay then! My askbox is always open for Linked Universe x Reader and LU drawing requests!
Anyways, onto the story!
So Tired of This
Legend and Y/N had been discussing past life experiences with each other. If anyone was paying attention to their conversation, theyâd be surprised. Legend didnât really like talking about himself and his past experiences very often. The conversation was going rather pleasant for a while. Then one of them said just the right thing to turn it into an argument. Everyone elseâs heads turned at hearing raised voices.
âUgh! Iâm such a burden! You must be so annoyed that you have to help me get back to my home!â Y/N grumbled.
âHey! Donât put words in my mouth! But yes, you are one! That doesnât mean that Iâm not willing to help!â Legend snapped.
âYou didnât need to confirm it for me! Maybe your mouth and attitude is why Marin left you!â Y/N replied shrilly.
This was getting way too tense. Theyâre going to say worse things to each other if this continues. They might even start hitting each other! This needs to stop now. Time then walked up to them to pry them away from each other.
âThatâs enough out of you two! You two are being childish!â Time huffed.
âBut he/she started it!â Legend and Y/N replied indignantly.
âI donât need to hear it. Your responses are just proving my point. You two need some time away from each other to cool off for a while.â Time stated firmly.
Time pushed both them apart. They gave each other the stink eye before turning away from each other. They both had their arms crossed and had slouched postures like pouting children. Time sighed deeply as their actions. Things between those two are probably going to be tense.
âŚ
For the past week, Legend and Y/N were avoiding each other. It was mostly silence between them. Sometimes theyâd shoot each other looks, both mad and sad. At most, they might exchange a few words, but they were always stiff and stilted. Despite them being mad at each other, it was clear to anyone who paid attention to them that they still cared about each other.
It was starting to annoy everyone else. Just stop dancing around each other! Is that hard to grow up and apologize to each other? The way them two would look at each other and never initiate an apologetic conversation! Ugh!
âŚ
âVet. Canât you just go apologize to Y/N? I know you two miss talking to each other. Itâs just going to get worse the more you two avoid each other.â Warriors stated.
âI donât need friendship advice from you, pretty boy!â Legend huffed.
âI know, I know. Y/N has been making you relax and making you happier. Do you truly wish to go back to being hard shelled again?â Warriors reprimanded.
âI donât. Iâm just worried that Y/N wonât forgive me or that Iâll make things even worse by saying the wrong thingâŚâ Legend sighed forlornly.
Warriors just sighed deeply. Legend needs to put his big boy pants on. Maybe thatâd be a pair for him to wear if he ever decides to wear pants for once.
âŚ
âHey, Y/N. I think you should go apologize to the Veteran. I know you two like each other. You two are going to get more and more mad at each other the longer you two dance around.â Four stated.
âI know, Smithy.â Y/N sighed.
âSo why donât you go apologize?â Four asked.
âIâm just worried that he wonât listen to me or heâll snap at me. One of us is going to accidentally say something stupid and weâll start bickering againâŚâ Y/N sighed morosely.
That made Four sigh deeply. Y/N needs to chin up. Four knew Y/N would need some help, but he wasnât sure where to start.
âŚ
Another week had gone by. Legend and Y/N still havenât apologized to each other. They didnât seem as mad at each other now. So they mainly looked each otherâs way sadly. This was getting supremely annoying! Canât those two grow a pair?
So the Chain hatched a plan. They were going to individually send Legend and Y/N on patrol. Purposely in opposite directions so theyâd be forced to talk to each other. This is a perfect plan! They just had to wait for the perfect moment and to time it well.
Legend got his task of doing a patrol and was told to start his loop around the perimeter of the camp by going left. He did so with nary a comment or complaint. Y/N was not even aware heâd left, they were lost in their own little world while reading a book. The Chain waited a few minutes and then sent Y/N on patrol the opposite direction theyâd told Legend do. Y/N walked off without a comment or a complaint.
Legend and Y/N calmly walked around, keeping an eye out for potential threats. Neither of them were aware they were going to run into each other. They also didnât know that this was set up by the Chain. Everyone was getting sick of them two avoiding each other and not apologizing. Despite that they still clearly liked each other.
Y/N and Legend eventually crossed each otherâs paths. They surprised to see each other on patrol. Was there a goof up? Wait⌠the others probably set this up! Thereâs no beating around the bush anymore, itâs time to finally apologize.
âU-um, fancy meeting you out here.â Legend started.
âU-um, you as well.â Y/N replied.
âThis is a setup isnât it.â they said in sync, which caused a weak shared chuckle.
âIâm um, sorry for calling you a burden. Thatâs not a nice thing to say to someone; ever. Especially when the person youâre saying it to is already upset.â Legend apologized.
âIâm um, sorry for saying that the way you act sometimes is the reason why Marin left. That wasnât okay for me to say to you. Sheâs clearly someone you cared about deeply.â Y/N apologized.
They stared at each other for a moment. They then crushed each other in sync with an apologetic hug. They stayed like that for a few minutes before leaning back away from each other.
âFriends again?â Y/N asked.
âFriends again.â Legend agreed.
âŚ
And so, Legend and Y/N had made up with each other. They walked back to camp, holding each otherâs hands. The Chain practically let out a sigh of relief at the sight. Theyâre finally best friends again! That was an irritating two weeksâŚ
The End!
I hope you liked it, anon! Again, my askbox is always open for LU x Reader and LU drawing requests!
I realized that I didnât write in the part of the ask where the anon mentioned that Legend and Reader secretly did favors for each other! Oopsie! I hope they still like the fic despite me forgetting a part. The curse of an amateur writer :(

I hope you liked it, anon! Again, my askbox is always open for LU x Reader and LU drawing requests!
Hi again!!! I got another idea that might be cool!
The chain meets a reader who fleeing from a hoarde of monsters who are chasing her and her newborn relentlessly. They had killed her husband and where after her but the chain saved her. They're wondering why they were so desperate to catch her but then Wind asks about her baby and she's all like-
"This is my son, Link."
And he's got the sterotypical Blonde hair, blue eyes and even the triforce of courage on his little baby hand. Reader has no clue her baby is another incarnation of them.
Time would be like- "Ganondorf really is coming after us in our cradles, the coward!"
Hello again, bud! The Chain meets a Reader with a baby named Link, huh? Iâll get on it! My askbox is always open for Linked Universe x Reader and LU drawing requests!
Anyways, onto the story!
The Infancy of Courage
Y/N and her husband were a wonderful and happy couple. Y/N had worked as a maid in Hyrule Castle. Her husband was one of the Hyrulean knights. They had initially tried to keep their relationship a secret, but virtually everyone knew. This included Zelda and the King, much to the coupleâs chagrin.
Everyone was excited when the couple announced that they were trying for a baby. A good month later, Y/N was pregnant! After around nine months, a beautiful baby boy was born. He had an adorable mop of blonde hair. When he eventually opened his eyes, they were a beautiful blue.
The baby looked just like those depictions of the hero of legend. Link would be a fine name for him. The couple agreed that will be the babyâs name. Link hardly ever cried, which was a blessing for any parents. He had a penchant for liking to grab sticks and waving them around like a sword, babbling cutely as he did.
His parents couldnât wait to see him grow up. Would he want to become a knight like his father? Would he want to do something similar to what his mother does? Or would he choose his own path? Whatever he chooses, his parents knew that theyâd support him no matter what.
âŚ
The coupleâs happiness didnât last very long. Ever since Link was born, there had been a strange uptick in monsters. Child kidnappings were on the rise too. It caused the couple many sleepless nights because they feared that their baby will get hurt or kidnapped. They swore their baby could sense that something wrong too.
One night, the couple crashed to sleep after they were both done with work for the day. With how tired they were, they had forgotten the lock the door⌠At one point, sniffing and snorting was heard outside. It let out a quiet squeal, as if delighted by what it smelt. With a push of its gnarly hand, the door swung open.
The moonlight filtering through a window lit up the unexpected guest, a hungry Bokoblin. It snuffled and snorted around some more in the house. It caught sight of a crib with a baby sleeping peacefully in it. Score! The best kind of meal, a defenseless animal!
The Bokoblin reached into the crib and roughly scooped up the baby. It licked its lips, it couldnât wait to chow down. The baby sleepily blinked his eyes open, expecting that it was his parents picking him up to coo over him for the umpteenth time. He didnât expect to see that it was a pig monster that picked him up! Sensing danger, he started screaming and crying at the top of his little lungs, pounding at the Bokoblinâs face with his puny fists.
His parents were immediately awake and alert despite being so exhausted. Link never cried and screamed like that. Something was very wrong. With a thrill of fear, they saw a Bokoblin manhandling their baby! Y/Nâs husband immediately rushed to grab his sword and shield.
He deftly bashed the Bokoblinâs head with his shield, stunning it and making it drop the baby in surprise. Y/N dove forward to catch her little Link. She scrambled away with him in her arms. She shushed him and rocked him to calm him down, along with keeping an eye on her husband and the Bokoblin. It took a surprisingly long time to kill it, even with her husbandâs skill.
It was spurting black blood from its wounds. There was something off with this Bokoblin. Was it infected with some disease or some form of dark magic? It was also noticeably more aggressive too. Eventually the Bokoblin was defeated, it collapsed onto the ground and didnât move anymore.
Though it was dead, they were on alert in case this monster wasnât alone. They kept an eye out for another hour before finally relaxing. Howâd this monster get in? They then realized that they had been so tired that theyâd forgotten to lock the door! Something told them they shouldnât stay in this house anymoreâŚ
And so, they moved into the castle. There was more people to keep watch and to guard them, and it was more fortified than their house. As the days passed, tensions were rising. More monsters were appearing, especially the odd black blooded ones. More and more children were getting kidnapped.
Everything turned for the worse for the couple and their baby. On one terrible night, Hyrule Castle was swarmed by an army level amount of monsters. All of them were that tough and aggressive black blooded kind. Many soldiers were losing their lives trying to protect Zelda and the King. It was not looking good for anyone.
âY/N! I think the monsters are after our baby! Take Link and go!!!â her husband shouted.
âNo! Donât talk like that! I wonât leave you!â Y/N cried.
âIâve got this! Go! Keep him safe!â he promised.
Y/N reluctantly ran away with Link in her arms. She sobbed as she ran, nimbly avoiding combat. She had a feeling in her gut that this was the last time she ever got to see her husband. She kept running and running, not really knowing where she was going. All she was that she needed to get away from the monsters and find a place safe from monsters.
She happened across an old temple dedicated to the Goddess of Courage, Farore. She could use some courage right now. Before she passed out from exhaustion, she prayed for protection for her and her baby for this one night. For the first time in ages, she had a good night of sleep. No nightmares and she felt a lot better than she had been the last few weeks.
She knew that she and her baby couldnât stay here. The monsters were probably looking for her and her baby. She thanked Farore for her protection. She then hurried out of the temple and continued aimlessly running away. For the rest of the day, she only paused to occasionally feed herself and to let Link nurse.
She really hoped sheâd find somewhere safe to stay soon. She was already over her limit and overexerting herself. She feared that sheâd even need to leave the Kingdom of Hyrule completely. Maybe the monsters would stop chasing her then. Oh gods, hopefully someone comes to save her and her baby.
âŚ
A few extremely stressful days later, she just about crashed into a group of nine people. They were dressed a lot like her husband. Even more so like the old heroes of legend! Maybe they can help her? Maybe they can protect her as they lead her to a safe space?
âWhoa there, miss! Whatâs got you all in a hurry?â Time asked, holding a hand out to halt Y/N.
âMonsters have been in pursuit for my baby and I! Iâm trying to find some place safe for us!â she babbled out.
âYou look haggard, miss. You mustâve been running for daysâŚâ Hyrule stated, his tone concerned.
âYes, those monsters wonât leave my baby and I alone!â she replied.
âHow peculiar. Monsters usually donât chase after someone for that long.â Wild murmured.
âI donât know why they are.â she sighed.
âHey, whatâs the babyâs name?â Wind asked.
âOh! His name is Link!â she cheerfully replied.
Everyone in the Chain froze upon hearing that the baby had their shared name. Itâs just a coincidence, he could just be named after them. But the baby had the typical blonde hair and blue eyes. He was dressed in a green baby jumper. He was sucking on his left thumb and said hand had the Triforce of Courage shining on it.
âGanondorf, you pig! Youâre so afraid of us stopping you that youâre coming after us in our cradle?! What a cowardly man he isâŚâ Time thundered.
What were they going to do about this? They clearly needed to get this baby Link and his mother somewhere safe! But where would safe be? No place truly stayed safe for long. Especially with the Shadow causing problems in many erasâŚ

part one | part two is here!
The young boy strides further down to the bushes, a yellow golden shines brightly between it. He was deep within the woods once more.
The Kokiri had told him once about a girl, roughly around his age - traveling amidst the forest, covered in mud, and holding plants. He was aware of it, but not once had he saw her in person before.
Every step he took had sped up.
Glancing around cautiously before continuing his pace.
As he ventures further, his entire surroundings were filled with tall trees - very alarmingly easy for an ambush.
The bushes in front of him suddenly started bustling, unsheathing his sword. Ready to swing his blade at the monster whether it was about to pounce on him abruptly.
But his sword briefly lowers down, his mouth slightly gaps open. It was you. The girl he saw by the fountain! What are you doing here of all places?
Link shook his head, sheathing his sword back. Just as the words about to escape his mouth, your palm urgently raised up to stop him from questioning any further. Your eyes were shut tight, standing up properly with the other hand clenching your skirt, wrinkling the fabric with your grip.
âIâm only just a kid collec-â Your eyes gradually opened just as your words dies down. â⌠tingâŚâ your hand slowly descends to your side.
Oh?
Oh!
Connecting the dots inside his head. A collector? He hadnât expected the mysterious girl who wanders around forest and has been unaware treading close to dangers would be you. Unbeknownst to him, his mouth curved up into a small smile.
âYouâre that⌠thatâŚâ You tried to formulate a few words, your finger consciously moving up-and-down pointing towards him. âThat boy!â
He perked up, however you didnât give him much time to recollect on what you have just said before you abruptly got close to him. Face-to-face.
âUm-â
âSorry!â You pulled away instantly, taking a few steps back between the two of you. Hands clasped together excitedly, followed by a hopeful grin on your face.
âWhatâs your name?â
He blinked, scratching the nape of his neck sheepishly before he responded back.
âââ
Several months have pass.
Nine portals.
Meeting a group of heroes who share the same goals as him; to find out who's behind the portals and to stop them from causing anymore casualties across eras.
It took him an awful a-lot of time to get back within his own Hyrule, although it would only be a short-while visit. He just hope he arrives in time to see you.
He could tell these parts of the woods are the closest to the Lon Lon ranch, Time couldnât tell if youâre still helping Malon or back in Castle Town. What type a husband would he be if he canât even get to pay a visit to you at least once before leaving again without telling you.
From the letters heâve sent; he was open about his adventures through the portals, never leaving any details to closure, and carefully not smudging the ink on paper. The postman is dedicated, and he never missed any deliveries from your mails. It was like the holy grail for him.
Along the way, Timeâs gaze lingers far too long on each parts of the woods. Whether would it be just a bush or a tree, no-one spotted anything strange on how he's acting, the old man is far too indescribable for one to even know what he's truly thinking. He might be just analyzing the forest or whatever.
All except for one, the rancher saw how his ancestorâs looks was filled with familiarity around the place. Twilight couldâve swore he even saw how the corners of his mouth slightly twitch.
He could ask a question later. Twilight was equally as curious to meet his other ancestor, and in person too. To see this woman that gotten this old man fighting trying to keep up his poker face.
It was only vague hints about your appearance and your name - that peeked his interest. His thoughts was interrupted by a yell.
"Hey!"
The postman sprints towards the group of travelers, humming a cheerful tone rummaging inside his backpack, presenting an folded envelope. "A letter for Link!"
There was no response, a quiet conversation exchanged between all of them and glances on who's taking it, or better yet, which one. "Anyone?" The postman raises a brow, noticing that no one's moving forward to get the mail.
"I got it." The Skyloftian stepped in, taking the letter. Reading the language written on it to figure out on who this truly belongs to, he then momentarily handed it over to the sailor - pointing out that its written in the young boyâs hylian.
While the others were in disbelief at the prospect of the postman managing letters that wasnât supposed to be in this era. He swiftly ignored the blazing questions thrown at him like wildfire, gingerly pushing another neatly folded envelope towards Timeâs chest. âThis oneâs for you, Mr. Lon!â
He hummed a cheerful tune all the while deliberately sprinting away to deliver another mail. Leaving the others in a state of confusion on what just happened.
Time eyed at the letter, his eye briefly lit up when he saw the handwriting. Not hesitating at all - he opened the envelope to start reading what youâve wrote.
Dear, Link.
I truly hope youâre faring well. I am just glad youâre not alone to fight off - whatever it is that you have been dealing with. I can assume its a far greater enemy that you cannot fight alone, and needing all the help you can get.
Youâve told me that these boys are heroes like you, and that theyâre capable, you spoke highly of them. I just hope all of you are unharmed heavily from danger along the way, if all of you ever visited our Hyrule, please be careful.
The last time Iâve visited the forest, trying to find the spot when we first talked. It was awfully quiet, the solitude wasnât pleasant as before. Whatever it is, it isnât supposed to be here.
Time could only frown, perhaps you were referring to the sick-blooded monster they have fought earlier. It took them plenty of blows just to fight off a single enemy when one of them can take it down easily, it was unlikely.
And - you need to stop venturing far into the woods again. Youâre a stubborn little fiend at heart, that heâs in-love with, but your safety is his priority, he needs to talk to you about this soon.
Iâm staying at the ranch for a week before going back to assist Queen Zelda. I can only dream seeing you again during my short break, Iâd be working tirelessly as soon as I step foot inside Castle Town.
With all my research hindering due to⌠potential threats looming around the forest. Writing this letter to you could only bring me at ease.
Oh, and I just canât wait to meet these boys youâve told me about! They bring such great news coming from your letters, except the part of them causing a headache for you.
Love, (Name) Lon!
Your husband smiled softly, folding the paper neatly. Unfortunately, he wasnât aware someone was eyeing at him, too engrossed of his wifeâs letter.
âSo⌠is that one from your missis, old man?â The captain questioned in a playful manner, elbowing his arm with a grin plastered on Warriorsâ face.
This could only earn him a sudden shift of Timeâs face - a deep frown and a disgruntled glare at his way. Time doesnât want to indulge into this conversation any further, giving a dismissive wave to Warriors - which is enough to fuel the captain into laughter - and signaling the other heroes. âFrom this path, there will be a narrow space. Which is enough for us to camp for the night.â and the closest to the ranch. The heroes collectively listened and followed him without question.
âââ
Low steady rumbles of flames smoldering from the campfire. Twilight raises his palms facing the embers sensing the warmth against it, and momentarily rubbing his hands together. He took a glance towards his ancestor - Time was sharpening his blade calmly from the opposite side of the campfire.
It was only the two of them awake of this hour. Initially, it was supposed to be just the rancher to keep in watch, Time insisted to stay with his eyes wide open for a few minutes. It has been a awkward quiet lengthy night between the two.
(Name), Twilight ponders, staring off into the glowing embers dancing gracefully against the wood it burns. The wind ghostly-whistling across him, not knowing the sword that Time was sharpening has gone silent.
âHead in the clouds, boy?â He queries, sheathing his blade back and putting it aside.
The rancher raises his head up towards him. His mouth slightly opened but no words came out, Time perked a brow at the reluctance given by his descendant. âIf you have something to say, go ahead.â He added. âItâs only us awake at this night.â
Twilight nodded, crossing his arms against his chest. âRight,â he pauses briefly, shifting his gaze to the flames. âUh, howâd yaâ two meet?â
His ancestor let out a gentle smile, eyeing at the ring wrapped around his finger. âIt was a long time ago, when we were kids, we met by the fountain and then it was this very forest Iâve met her the second time.â
Of course, the old man would be sentimental. Twilight could observe of how fond he looks at the ring, even though it would look cheap in someoneâs eyes - it holds more value for a manâs love for his wife.
âI was wonderinâ whyâd yaâ look so at ease.â Twilight commented with a polite smile. âIt makes me wonder on how yaâ manage tâbe away from âer fer so long.â
Time chuckles under his breath, his face crinkled in delight. âAh, youâll get used to it.â
Itâs the truth. Youâre a busy woman yourself - but in some days, you make enough time to spend with him in Castle Town, every moment spent with you was delicate. He remembered on how you often spoke about retirement - though it may be early to think that type of decision, you have no doubt with it. Living inside Castle Town wasnât a big deal for him, as long he gets to be close to you.
Twilight seems to be lost in his thoughts again, it was noticeable for the Old Man simply staring at him. Clearing his throat to catch the young blondeâs attention. âI suppose you have more to your words judging from your hesitancy.â He spoke firmly. âI wonât be upset on what you have to say.â
â⌠I have a friend back home, same name ân all.â
âItâs jusâ gotten me a lilâ off guard when yaâ first introduce me to âer âfore we went tâyer Hyrule,â Twilight explained, resting against his palm, a soft smile on his face. âItâs not exactly common in my era⌠ân I ainât the type to jump into conclusionsâŚâ a mere coincidence, most likely.
Silence suddenly engulfed the area after the rancher trailed off - small snores coming from each side of the camp, crickets, and the smoldering flames can only be heard between them.
âAh didnât mean tâbeat âround the bush.â Twilight sulks down at the crinkets given, but he knows his mentor in front of him was in his mind too before giving out a lighthearted chuckle. âBut I want tâsee her soon. She seems like a great person.â
This earns the old man to briefly smile before deliberately raising his hand half-way. âWe can have this talk someday, for now, get some rest. Iâll keep in watch.â
He didnât protest at the sudden order given from his ancestor, Twilight understood this conversation would take them hours - he nodded wordlessly, walking towards his bed roll.
Time watched him lay on his bed roll, then turning his head forward leaning towards the fire with his elbows resting against his knees.
âââ
Some of the boys groaned waking up early in the morning, thanks to the sailor volunteering to be the alarm clock. The Old Man was already suiting up his armor, wasting no time.
Facing towards his group, there was evident fatigue with some of them. Hyrule almost passing out to slumber towards Legend, only for his predecessor shaking him off to stir the former awake.
The Skyloftian was.. a special case of a heavy sleeper, with Wind frantically shaking both of his shoulders in an attempt to wake him. It did work, only took a good seven minutes.
It was a short journey, even though the forest isnât that quiet anymore - with some fairies peeking through the bushes. Itâs best to keep their guard up, and not another ambush by a greater enemy. Once theyâve reached the open field of Hyrule, Time had spoken to the other heroes that the place theyâll be staying at is close enough - which brought a sense of relief from the others.
The Old Man seems to be enthusiastic, speeding up his steps as the boys behind him tried to match his pace. âHere we are.â Time simply spoke with an evident fondness of his grin, basking beneath the sun admiring the scenery of the ranch. Ignoring how the others grumbled and one catching his breath. The old man was searching around, particularly looking for someone.
âLink!â
You hollered out his name dropping your rake to the side, running towards him albeit being careful with your steps in case you might trip over. He approaches with the same pace, wrapping his arms around your waist into an embrace. Your hands gently touched his cheeks, momentarily pulling in for a kiss.
Pulling away, you took this chance of smothering his entire face with quick pecks. He chuckled at the sudden affection before gingerly tapping your shoulder, leaning away enough for you to see a group of boys behind him.
Link proudly introduced you to the heroes, his hand rests against your waist. âEveryone, this is my wife,â he says your name with evident fondness.
âMy goddesses,â You sighed, glancing over to the boys, you noted most of them are young - he did mention that in his letters but seeing them in person only brought you to fuss worry over them. âYou boys must be exhausted, my sisterâs house is over there - come along.â
Leading them while tugging on your husbandâs arm, Malon wasnât home for the record - she went with Talon delivering goods for the Castle Town, theyâll be back before sundown. It was you for the day to take in-charge of the farm work, which you certainly didnât mind the heavy loading, kinda.
Stepping inside, you told the boys they could rest here for awhile. Preparing meals was one of your specialties, rummaging through the storage to find anything to cook with. A gentle hand on your shoulder caught your attention.
âFlower,â Link calls out quietly, making you look over his shoulder to see his companions marveling at the souvenirs and swords displayed around the house, they were engrossed within their conversations.
Eyeing at your husband back, momentarily placing the ingredients on the counter. âI know youâre excited, but you need to slow down for a moment.â He says, patting your shoulder briefly.
âBesides,â he peeks over to the rowdy crowd of chatters from behind, before leaning towards you. âWe need extra hands around the ranch, it gets the work done efficiently.â
You promptly shook your head, then sending him a faux offended glare at his way, opting to take back his words. âYou all have been through a lot, I canât simply let you and the boys work around here, especially just coming back from a long journey.â
âIt only took us an hour to get here, (Name).â
âReally?â
âYes, really.â Apparently the small bickering between you caught their attention, turning your head towards the silence instead of usual conversations blooming around the house.
You coughed against your fist. âSorry, Iâm sure you all have been through so much. Why not make yourselves at home?â
You certainly got ahead of yourself, forgetting you still have tasks to accomplish around this place. Cooking delicacies for them might have to wait, wiping your hands on your apron. âI have a lot of work to do around here, if any of you have any questions -â
âDo you need any help? We can do the work around here too!â The youngest raised his hand, then the others soon collectively agreed with his words. They probably heard most of the words spoken by the two of you.
Nonetheless, you couldnât refuse especially from a child who seems energized at the moment. âAlright.â you raised your hand towards your husband in defeat who gave out a chuckle. No use in refusing the offer, and there is no settlements for arguments.
It didnât take too long for Malon and Talon to come back from their delivery to Castle Town, she was glad thereâs people volunteering to help around - as the Owner of Lon Lon Ranch, she went straight to business leading the way for them to get started with; assigning roles to each of them, heavy-lifting bags of flour and soil, gathering scattered hays, and leading the cuccos back to their coop.
Youâve spoken to each of them, they are their own person and their own selves, their meetings across portals had brought all of them closer like brothers. Working together as a team efficiently to figure out certain enemies to each eras.
Some of them were a bit curious or maybe enthusiastic to listen pertaining to your relationship with Link - not that you would mind sharing the details of how youâve met or how the feelings between you surfaced. Especially questions about his actual age, though you could only brush that off. Link, being sixty?
Starting to see the sun slowly coming down, you begrudgingly decided to leave the rest to the group, no matter how many times you insisted. Leaving you and Link to watch over them:
âHard-working, are they?â Link commented, leaning over slightly for you to hear him. You could only huff a laugh, the amount of questions to handle around like it weighs more than a bag of flour.
âYou could say that, I barely even lift a finger around here.â You said, wrapping your arm around his. Tugging him closer to your side, your cheek lying against his shoulder. âAlthough, you would do the same thing.â
âThat so?â You felt him brushing your loose hair to the side behind your ear. âThen you should know better than to tell them to rest for the whole day, flower.â
âBut - I didnât say you were wrong.â You rolled your eyes playfully. âIt makes the work around here easier. More time for us, donât you think?â
He hummed in response, silently watching some of his comrades chase the remaining cuccos. He called out your name then gently tapping your arm, causing you to lean away to look at him questioningly.
âI have great news, one of them is our descendant.â
âWhat?â You awed, then suddenly holding both of his hands out of excitement. âYouâre serious, right? A descendant!â
He simply stated a âyesâ to reconfirm that youâve heard him right. âAnd?â You dragged out, thinking that he would continue his words to reveal who it is. He didnât.
âYouâre cruel.â
âNot cruel, beloved. It would ruin the surprise.â He wrapped his arm over to your shoulder, bringing you closer ignoring you begrudged glares sent at his way. âBesides, youâre a fan of mysteries as much as Malon conspiring about aliens.â
Heâs right, as much as you donât want to admit it right now. Arguing with your husband who knows so much about you would lead to nowhere. âAnd youâre using it against me?â to which he nodded boldly.
âFine, Iâll figure it out in no time.â
âââ
You have no clue on who it is.
Youâve talked and interrogated questioned each of them. You had one, but that quickly disperses once another forms to contradict it instead. You would often see them work, go-a round the ranch, even seeing them bickering for a few times, and trying to look closely to see if you find any of their features familiar.
However, you do have a guess but what your husband had given you was sparse and it completely holds up your conclusion; only a descendent, a couple of centuries? millenniums?
You had spoken to each of them; mentally taking notes of their eras theyâve described in their own words, although it was minimal it did help out a bit.
You quickly turned your head at the sound of a door opening to your shared room, Link greeted you with a small peck against your cheek, then steadily leaning behind the wall. âDid you figure it out?â
âNot quite,â You tapped under your chin. âI could only assume.â
âThen youâre close.â He crosses his arms around chest waiting for your answer, you gave a second thought from all the observations youâve had. âOh, out with it!â You tried your best to contain your impatience not wanting to make tumultuous noises to disturb the guests, the reveal was easily a few feet away from you - right in front of you.
Link only huff for a moment, then maneuvering closely to the door for him to knock for a few times. âYou can come in, rancher.â He simply called out. You quickly raised your head enough to see the young boy approaching within the room, of course, he was the first you've had your rupees on.
"My word," Your hand hovers around your chest, you felt the corners of your mouth curving up. "I knew you hafta be the one! Look at you, I don't see my husband's nose, lucky you."
"He was practically waiting outside, couldn't wait to see you."
"Perhaps you told him to keep quiet of this whole ordeal, didn't you?" You remarked albeit a hint of sarcasm.
"Nonetheless..." trailing off, this news brought to you only made you feel at ease. It truly meant that, possibly, you haven't stayed around Castle Town that much.
A modest life that you'd always have dream for, a thought about children hadn't crossed you and Link's mind. Though, with the presence of a relative from a far future fuels that idea. "That would certainly mean we could be a family soon, and our children would have their own."
A hand quietly brushes against yours, his thumb stroking gently, tightening your grip around his.
"So it seems." The hero acknowledged, finding your quiet ideas and thoughts identical to his, a family with you doesn't sound bad.
Twilight silently watches the scene before him, fondling with the hem of his shirt. "Thank you for lettin' us stay 'ere, Ms. (Name)"
"No, no. No formalities." You quickly dismiss it, "You're a family to us, now. Isn't that right?"
"I-..." The former opened his mouth slightly, glancing to his mentor who gave out an approving nod, then it was briskly replaced with a bashful smile. "Thank you."
You got to hear about the adventure, as much as you're worried about the dangers have been circulating the further they venture down to the portals. It was pleasant to hear Twilight talk fondly about his people, the boy certainly holds them in a tight grip within his heart. The night finally closes in; you couldn't tell how many hours it took until Link pointed it out, and letting the rancher finally go back to his own room to rest for the night.
Turning around to face Link; who was adjusting the lantern by the bedside table. "He does act a little bit of yourself, I could see the similarities." you commented, approaching to his side.
"The first time you've met me, (Name), I was no different from a young boy." His hand reaches out by your waist, bringing you closer enough to him.
"Don't remind me the time I fell -"
"I'm just fooling around."
You sighed, shaking your head briefly. "Of course," you huff in amusement. "You keep writing those letters once you leave to the next portal."
"It depends on where that mailman goes." Link leads you to your shared bed with the support of his palm on your back. "However, it's better to speak to you in person."
The night was quiet, a comforting presence by your side. It was only two days left before returning back to the Castle, you still have errands left around the Ranch to fulfill. The lanternâs bright flame slowly dims, the light itself was minimal - only then the moonlight glows across the surface.
The proximity shared between your husband was putting you in a state of fatigue, briefly yawning against your palm. Bringing the covers close, you felt fingers gently brushing against your face - placing the loose hair to the side enough for him to press a light kiss to your brow.
âSweet dreams, beloved.â
a/n: omfg i APOLOGIZE this took so long, i was double taking on Timeâs personality. goddamnit old man im turning you into a slime then putting you into an incinerator lovingly. this turn out longer than expected, I had to proofread some bits but not too much! Iâll probably try to expand their background together. Initially I had also double takes on Twilight and Timeâs talk together, it wasnât the entire focus but just a few grain of salt sprinkled. I mean, this is Time x reader. Maybe ill make a few rambles of this story. đ Thank you for all the support!
Yay, part 2! I liked this! A multiple readers au I see đ Canât wait to see rambles about that and the next chapter for this! Thanks for the tag, bud!
I thought of a request, the chain Find the next hero of courage (reader) who is a descendant/child of Wild.
More information about Link/reader:
The reader would be the Link for echoes of wisdom;
He lost his voice;
Zelda and Reader are siblings (whether by blood or not);
After his adventure, Link spends more time at the castle with Zelda and in the forest;
Zelda knows something more has happened to Link, and she becomes more protective when someone asks about the hero.
(I don't know if it's just my wish, but if I ever magically end up in the Linkend universe, I want to be a Link, with my own backstory. )
Hello, anon! Iâm doing alright. If I was in Linked Universe, Iâd want to be myself. I donât think I could be a Link, but itâs nice to imagine myself as such.
Anyway⌠A Chain with a Mute Hero Reader fic, huh? Iâve never actually played Echoes of Wisdom, but Iâll see what I can do! My askbox is always open for Linked Universe x Reader and LU drawing requests!
Anyways, onto the story!
An Eerie Silence
The newest member of the Chain was quiet. He was mute, but none of the Chain was sure if it was by choice or because something had happened to him that caused him to become mute. Heâd communicate with sign language and writing. Heâd never answer when they asked him about why he was mute. They knew not to pry too much because heâd briefly be more closed off when they did.
Despite not being willing to bring up why heâd become mute, heâd share other things about himself. He and his Zelda were basically siblings to each other. Some the Chain understood that feeling because they had that kind of connection with their Zeldas. His Zelda was quite protective of him especially after she had rescued him. The Chain was mildly surprised that a Zelda had taken the role of a hero, but they also werenât surprised at the same time with courageous Zelda can be at times.
He seemed to bond the best with Wild. Wild initially assumed it was because he himself used to be mute. Eventually this Link revealed that he was Wildâs descendant. What surprised Wild even more was that he mentioned that he was a blood descendant. So Wild actually settles down at one point and has a child?!?
He noticed this Link had a similar fighting style as his. Did older him teach this guy or did older him teach one of his kids and it got passed down to this guy? Wild figured it was one of his future kids because of the time gap. This Link said he thinks that heâs a century or more after Wild. Nonetheless, it seems that Wildâs era eventually had the chance to rebuild a bit better.
Despite his muteness, he was just as much of a hero as the others. He was courageous just like them. He helped those in need with nary a complaint.
He was the one who wanted to take down the Shadow the most. It surprised the Chain a little because he seemed scared of the Shadow. He must have some vendetta against it. Maybe he has a trauma about evil monsters possessing others. Some of the Chain knew what that felt like.
There were certain places he liked to stay at when the Chain decided to rest for the night. For indoors, he liked to stay in the various instances of Hyrule Castles if he was allowed to do so. The Chain figured that he liked it because of how much he liked being around his Zelda. For outside, he liked to stay in forests. Everyone knew how that felt, there was always something mystical and peaceful about forests.

I think Iâm going to end it there, sorry for the abrupt ending! I couldnât figure out what else to write đ Turned out more headcanon based, but I hope you like it anyway!
Again, my askbox is always open for LU x Reader and LU drawing requests!
How would the chain react to a child hero Reader who is younger than Wind? The detail is that they don't know that Reader is a hero of courage, until Zelda reveals it to them.
Hello, anon! The Chain reacting to a kid hero Reader, huh? Alrighty! My askbox is always open for Linked Universe x Reader and LU drawing requests!
Anyway, onto the story!
A Bitter Nostalgia
The normally dark purple portal was a different color for the first time in ages. It was a dark blue this time, signifying that another hero named Link from some era was getting dragged into the mix. It had been several months since the last Chain member of the current group had joined. They made sure to be at ease as to not scare the new hero. They were anticipating a hero to be anywhere between Wind and Timeâs age.
But the person that stumbled out was a child younger than Wind. This kid looked no older than 8. His appearance did fight the common Link appearance though. Bright blonde hair, prominent eyebrows, and sparking blue eyes. Dressed in a green tunic, green hat, brown boots, and light colored pants. Donning a sword and a shield. The weapons looked more like toys thoughâŚ
Was this kid a fan of Link and wanted to pretend to be the hero? Was this kid a younger brother of a Link? Either way, this little guy mustâve got lost. He was probably exploring and didnât realize how far heâd wandered off. He probably slipped out of sight of his family or his guardians.
The little guy was a bit startled by the big group of people standing here on the other side of this strange thing he walked through. These guys were kinda intimidating, theyâre armed to the teeth like the knights that protect Zelda! Once he processes them a little more, he realized that he recognized them all! They were all those heroes from this storybooks he liked to read! Hylia mustâve heard his wish of wanting to meet the heroes of old!
âHiya, misters!â he courageously greeted, hiding that he was scared of them a little.
The Chain all blinked in surprise. This kid has the guts despite being out of his element. What a courageous kidâŚ
âUm, hello. Mind telling us your name?â Time asked kindly, kneeling down to the kidâs level.
âIâm Link!â he answered cheerfully.
âAre you though? Are you sure youâre not just pretending to be him because you think heâs cool?â Legend scoffed.
âI am though! Iâm the chosen hero of legend! I know Iâm young!â Link squawked indignantly.
He drew his sword, a sword roughly around the same length and size as the Kokiri Sword, and swung it around. He was surprisingly deft with a sword for a kid. Maybe someone taught him and he was actually patient enough to learn. He also showed off he knew how to how to use his little shield. He showed he could block with it and use it as an offensive piece of equipment.
âDo you guys believe me now?â Link asked.
âSure.â they replied, but only said that to humor the little guy.
Did they seriously look just like that as a kid? Looking that goofy? With clothes and weaponry that was a bit too big?
âAre you guys all Links of the past?â Link asked.
âYeah?â Wind responded.
âDo you guys have nicknames for each other so you donât mix each other up?â Link questioned.
âYeah, we do.â Wild chuckled.
âCool! What are they?â Link queried.
So the Chain told him. He nodded approvingly. He then asked, âWhat would be my name if I was part of your group?â
âHmm, how does Squire sound?â Warriors offered.
âOkay, Iâll be Squire then!â Link answered.
âSquire it is!â Four chuckled.
âCan I travel with you guys?â Link asked.
âAinât yer family or guardians worried âbout where ya are?â Twilight questioned.
âProbably? But theyâre used to me wandering off.â Link answered, seemingly unconcerned that his family or guardians might be worried about his disappearance.
âStill⌠itâs not safe out here.â Sky stated.
âI know, I know.â Link huffed.
âLetâs get you to somewhere safe for the moment.â Hyrule said.
âFineâŚâ Link grumbled.
They felt that the longer they all lingered, the more likely theyâd attract the attention of monsters. Though this little Link probably knew how to fight and could probably deal with weak monsters, they didnât want him to get hurt. So they all left the forest with him in tow. Thankfully there was a village not far from where they were at. With a bit more walking, they reached Kakariko Village.
Hopefully someone would be willing to keep an eye on him and make sure he doesnât wander off. The lady who tended to the villageâs Cuccos offered to keep an eye on him. Maybe heâll behave with someone who owns the surprisingly devilish birds⌠Trusting her to keep an eye on him, they left him there. They asked around the village for rumors and information about the Shadow and the powered up monsters it summons.
They got a lead that a grouping might be lingering around Death Mountain. A good enough place to start, it was close by. Even if the Shadow isnât there, it might lead to another portal that it leaves behind. So they all began marching up Death Mountain Trail. None of them realized that Link had snuck away from the Cucco Lady and was sneakily following them.
Twilight had shifted into his wolf form, trying to see if he could track down a scent. He sniffed around for a bit and then finally caught a scent. He barked, signifying the others to follow him. They continued up the trail after Twilight. Looks like the scent is leading to Dodongoâs CavernâŚ
As they walked in, they immediately noticed the lack of monsters. Maybe theyâre further in? They hopped across a few platforms, Twilight leading them to the door in the skull of a giant Dodongo. Time opened the door and they continued onward. Since the Gorons had been eating the rocks here, there was now a tunnel that led to King Dodongoâs old lair.
So none of them had to jump down a hole and fall a decent way down. There was still a surprising lack of monsters in this cavern. In fact, it was just a portal and nothing else in the old lair. They shrugged and walked through the portal. They still didnât notice that Link had been sneakily following them this entire timeâŚ
They ended up somewhere none of them recognized. No familiar sights and no familiar scents. Whose era was this?
âYay! Iâm back home!â Link cheered.
That startled the ever living daylights out of everyone. âWhere did you come from?!?â
âUm, Iâve been following you guysâŚ?â Link replied.
âWhere do you even live?â Legend asked.
âHyrule Castle! My family works there!â Link answered.
Okay, thatâs good. Maybe someone can confirm who this little kid is. Is he actually the next hero of Legend? With Linkâs guidance, they walked to Hyrule Castle. After a good thirty minutes later, they reached the gateway drawbridge.
âHey, Link? Whoâre your new pals?â One of the guards asked.
âThe old heroes of legend!â Link chirped.
Both guards seemed surprised for a moment. âWe got to tell Zelda about this!â
They motioned for Link and the Chain to follow them. Everyone hurried across the drawbridge and to the castle. They walked straight to the throne room. Zelda and the King seemed to be in the middle of a conversation. They both stopped upon seeing Link and the Chain.
âAh, Iâve been expecting you heroes.â Zelda started.
âYou have?â Wild asked.
âYes, Iâve been having dreams of you all coming.â she replied. âI assume youâre wondering about Link.â
âYes.â Warriors responded.
âHe is the next hero of Hyrule. Hylia apparently decided she wanted an even younger hero this time.â Zelda sighed.
âSeriously?!?â Legend yelled.
âYes. Can I trust you all to keep him safe until heâs a bit older? Hopefully evil waits to target him once heâs older...â Zelda asked.
âOf course. We swear will do our utmost to keep him safe.â Time replied, his tone resolute.
This was going to be a doozyâŚ
The End!

The End!
I hope you liked it, anon! Again, my askbox is always open for LU x Reader and LU drawing requests!
iâve written a one-shot few years ago and thatâs all. forgive me. i accept criticism, PLEASE do let me know. i know there wasnât much dialogue from the others, but i wanted this to be more reader-centric or something idk. do let me know if this entire thing made any sense idk.
this was something i was thinking of while i was working and i wanted to try writing it out. also, i'm kinda new to the fandom and i've been wanting to get into writing lately, so why not try it out? don't expect this to be great lol (lowk scared to post this (highkey))
a linked universe & reader angst? (maybe, i hope i got the emotions down.)
âWho is everyone with?â Time yells from his room, voice filled with worry. He knows everyone can handle themselves, but heâs more concerned about the one who isnât experienced with these things, maybe some concern over Warriors. All he can hope is that heâs with someone who knows how dungeons work. â[Name]? Are you there?â
[Name] hums as they get off the ground. Of course, they had to fall into a hole. All by themself. This was not good, and with their own experience (which was technically zero), they had to figure this room out on their own. âYeah, Iâm here.â
âAre you with anyone?â
They looked around again to make sure that they were going to give him the correct information, which theyâd lie about anyway. They were definitely alone, and they hoped it stayed that way (unless it was any of the Links). They only had that short sword Wild had given them. âuh, yeah.â
âWhoâs with you?â
Of course heâd ask that if they was that hesitant to respond, now they had to choose someone from the group. [Name] didnât know who he was with. â⌠Wild.â
âOkay, thatâs. Wildâs with me.â he huffs, as if he were trying to calm himself down; it seems they chose the wrong Link. âYouâre alone, arenât you?â
âHow could you tell?â [Name] retorts, enough of this standing around. They have to get going, and yeah, theyâre alone. They still have to find their own way out. Looking around to see if there was anything they could use. Nothing. Just a door up ahead. They got this in the bag, easy. They assure him, and whoever is around to hear. âIâll be careful.â
âââ
Being separated from the others was not ideal when youâre inexperienced with dungeons. Yet you were doing super well, you werenât hurt, and this was the sixth door. Youâre actually impressed with yourself! The puzzles havenât been too hard, finding the key for the door was fun, but you still wanted to find the others. It felt safer around them. With Time and Wild in a room nearest to yours made things feel easier to push through, at least you can still talk to someone if needed. The only way out is forward, and so, deeper into the dungeon you go. Holding the shortsword in your dominant hand, you check your surroundings as you walk through the door.
A âwhooshâ shot through the air, you blinked, and sudden pain shot through your body. Confusion rose until you looked down to see an arrow shot through your chest. You didnât check well enough, how annoying. It was an easy trap to see. You felt so stupidâit was an obvious arrow trap. Well, to be fair, you only had that sword, and you couldnât easily dodge like Link. Still. This is just great, and you had nothing on you to deal with the wound. Your best bet was to leave the arrow in and get through the rooms quickly, but with your luck, the puzzles in this room werenât going to be as easy as before, and you knew you had a low chance of surviving with this arrow in you. Yet you wanted to live, and so with every step you took was a desperate fight to escape the lurking death. It shouldnât be long til you exit this dungeon, right? But with your lung punctured, both you and death knew who was winning this dance.
Should you tell Time and the others? Absolutely, but would you? Not yet.
âââ
Pushing heavy objects around wasnât easy with this arrow; you could feel the blood pushing through it, and it hurt like hell. You were still in the seventh door, and no huge progress was made. You missed breathing normallyâhell, you missed functioning normally. How did the heroes deal with this? Theyâve gained so much more respect from you right now, and you already held so much for them. It wasnât long before you realized you wonât get through this. Youâve gotten so much weaker since you got shot, gasping as you breathed in and wincing every time you breathed out, but you were actually surprised to get this far, and that was something to be proud of, in your eyes. With no experience, you did well, and you really did try to hold on longer, but the whereâve you been punctured was too vital. You should not have lasted this long, and you knew this. You just thought the goddess above could spare you, but why would it be you?
You knew you had to say something before anything happened. You were very reluctant, but you knew it had to happen. You couldnât keep them in the dark, lest they come and find your body on their own. You donât want them to blame themselves, do you?
âlink, you know iâd forgive you, right?â You say breathlessly, you really just want to assure them. You were leaning on the wall to help you walk. Your rasped words caught everyoneâs attention, or those who could even hear them. You gulp, trying to stay strong to talk to them before things get too dark. ââm just dumb. sorry for messing up.â
â[Name], what happened? Whyâre you talking like that?â Wild called out, his voice came out urgent.
You were no hero, or even a traveller; the most outdoorsy stuff you did was go camping, and you never did that alone. You had no experience with these kinds of things, you shouldnât have been sent here, but you were, and now youâre bleeding out. Guilt fell upon you as you felt like a huge burden, you knew you just added so much on the Links when you came along. You just thought it'd be fun. You learned their ways and tried to catch up, but they were meant to be on this journey, you just happened to fall in. Now they're going to carry your death on their shoulders. You shouldnât have come alongâyou could have made a life in one of the passing towns. That small farm town you guys passed recently was beautiful, and felt so peaceful. It would have been fine to just restart, to forget the life you had before. Anything, but putting yourself in danger. You could have been working on a farm and selling crops, having small conversations and enjoying life, not worrying the chain by being around, but here you were. ââ[Name]?â
âyeah?â You didnât hear anything before your name, sitting down with your back against the wall. You could feel your body weakening. This was just great. This was your final moments, wasnât it? It was not the best way to go, you admit. Tears were falling down your cheeksâyou didnât want to die alone. Why were you alone? The room was too empty, too dark, and it scared you. You were scared. You just wanted to be held by someone right now. To feel someone's warmth before you go. Hylia, please. You werenât strong enough to handle this, to survive this. And maybe being around the chain made you too courageous, that you thought you could make it all the way, that you could live to tell the tale. Whyâd you even think? Everything hurts, crying hurts. There really wasnât much to do now, but beg. You hated this. You wished you had more time. You were just having fun, why now? Everything just started to make sense, and it was getting easier. Why are you dying now?
âTell us whatâs goinâ on!â Twilightâs voice popped through, he sounded like he was in a hurry. Did he sound closer, or was that your mind playing with you? Where did he even come from? You could only really hear Time and Wild the most, and a hint of Legend sometimes whenever he yelled (to whoever it was). He definitely feels something bad happened. âTalk to us!â
You zoned out a bit there before answering, your words coming out slurred together. ââm here, just tired. âm just going to rest âre a bit. thatâs okay?â
âNo-!â
âAre you hurt?!â Hyrule exclaimed with worry. Twilightâs frantic yelling mustâve gotten his attention, or were they together? You wouldn't know. You didnât know where the others were in the dungeon, but Time and Wild. Hyrule was not close. He had to yell to talk to you, and with how you were speaking, your voice would not reach him. âDonât close your eyes!â
âyeah.â A pause. âyeah, âm hurt,â Yet they still respond to him, but they know itâd reach him somehow. Your head bobbled before you corrected yourself, tilting your head up in hopes youâd stay longer. âpretty bad, wonât lie. sorry.â
There was a lot of blood lost now, and you donât even know how long itâs been. You had no sense of time here. You can hear the others trying to talk to you, but youâre too focused on your breathing to even listen. This is bad. So bad. And it wasnât like you didnât know the risks. You knew this was a possibility, you just thought itâd be a monster thatâll get you.
âi was stupid.â Getting disoriented, you started to chuckle at your own circumstance. Your voice was getting quieter and quieter, your tears stopped falling, everything around you just stopped. Sleep felt nice right now. When was the last time youâve gotten a good rest? Your eyes slowly closed as you took a breath. You were so tired. âdonât, donât blame yourself, link. please.â
The last thing you heard was your name being called before darkness took you.
I like this! My only criticism is that you need to fix your capitalization in the dialogue. There is multiple spots where the first letter isnât capitalized and couple instances where Link isnât capitalized. Otherwise, this fic is fine!
SO SO glad you liked it!! but uh funny thing, the lack of capitalization was on purpose. i wanted the reader to sound weaker, if that makes sense,, but i DO appreciate you saying something!!
iâve written a one-shot few years ago and thatâs all. forgive me. i accept criticism, PLEASE do let me know. i know there wasnât much dialogue from the others, but i wanted this to be more reader-centric or something idk. do let me know if this entire thing made any sense idk.

But with your lung punctured, both you and death knew who was winning this dance.
Should you tell Time and the others? Absolutely, but would you? Not yet.
âââ
Pushing heavy objects around wasnât easy with this arrow; you could feel the blood pushing through it, and it hurt like hell. You were still in the seventh door, and no huge progress was made. You missed breathing normallyâhell, you missed functioning normally. How did the heroes deal with this? Theyâve gained so much more respect from you right now, and you already held so much for them. It wasnât long before you realized you wonât get through this. Youâve gotten so much weaker since you got shot, gasping as you breathed in and wincing every time you breathed out, but you were actually surprised to get this far, and that was something to be proud of, in your eyes. With no experience, you did well, and you really did try to hold on longer, but the whereâve you been punctured was too vital. You should not have lasted this long, and you knew this. You just thought the goddess above could spare you, but why would it be you?
You knew you had to say something before anything happened. You were very reluctant, but you knew it had to happen. You couldnât keep them in the dark, lest they come and find your body on their own. You donât want them to blame themselves, do you?
âlink, you know iâd forgive you, right?â You say breathlessly, you really just want to assure them. You were leaning on the wall to help you walk. Your rasped words caught everyoneâs attention, or those who could even hear them. You gulp, trying to stay strong to talk to them before things get too dark. ââm just dumb. sorry for messing up.â
â[Name], what happened? Whyâre you talking like that?â Wild called out, his voice came out urgent.
You were no hero, or even a traveller; the most outdoorsy stuff you did was go camping, and you never did that alone. You had no experience with these kinds of things, you shouldnât have been sent here, but you were, and now youâre bleeding out. Guilt fell upon you as you felt like a huge burden, you knew you just added so much on the Links when you came along. You just thought it'd be fun. You learned their ways and tried to catch up, but they were meant to be on this journey, you just happened to fall in. Now they're going to carry your death on their shoulders. You shouldnât have come alongâyou could have made a life in one of the passing towns. That small farm town you guys passed recently was beautiful, and felt so peaceful. It would have been fine to just restart, to forget the life you had before. Anything, but putting yourself in danger. You could have been working on a farm and selling crops, having small conversations and enjoying life, not worrying the chain by being around, but here you were. ââ[Name]?â
âyeah?â You didnât hear anything before your name, sitting down with your back against the wall. You could feel your body weakening. This was just great. This was your final moments, wasnât it? It was not the best way to go, you admit. Tears were falling down your cheeksâyou didnât want to die alone. Why were you alone? The room was too empty, too dark, and it scared you. You were scared. You just wanted to be held by someone right now. To feel someone's warmth before you go. Hylia, please. You werenât strong enough to handle this, to survive this. And maybe being around the chain made you too courageous, that you thought you could make it all the way, that you could live to tell the tale. Whyâd you even think? Everything hurts, crying hurts. There really wasnât much to do now, but beg. You hated this. You wished you had more time. You were just having fun, why now? Everything just started to make sense, and it was getting easier. Why are you dying now?
âTell us whatâs goinâ on!â Twilightâs voice popped through, he sounded like he was in a hurry. Did he sound closer, or was that your mind playing with you? Where did he even come from? You could only really hear Time and Wild the most, and a hint of Legend sometimes whenever he yelled (to whoever it was). He definitely feels something bad happened. âTalk to us!â
You zoned out a bit there before answering, your words coming out slurred together. ââm here, just tired. âm just going to rest âre a bit. thatâs okay?â
âNo-!â
âAre you hurt?!â Hyrule exclaimed with worry. Twilightâs frantic yelling mustâve gotten his attention, or were they together? You wouldn't know. You didnât know where the others were in the dungeon, but Time and Wild. Hyrule was not close. He had to yell to talk to you, and with how you were speaking, your voice would not reach him. âDonât close your eyes!â
âyeah.â A pause. âyeah, âm hurt,â Yet they still respond to him, but they know itâd reach him somehow. Your head bobbled before you corrected yourself, tilting your head up in hopes youâd stay longer. âpretty bad, wonât lie. sorry.â
There was a lot of blood lost now, and you donât even know how long itâs been. You had no sense of time here. You can hear the others trying to talk to you, but youâre too focused on your breathing to even listen. This is bad. So bad. And it wasnât like you didnât know the risks. You knew this was a possibility, you just thought itâd be a monster thatâll get you.
âi was stupid.â Getting disoriented, you started to chuckle at your own circumstance. Your voice was getting quieter and quieter, your tears stopped falling, everything around you just stopped. Sleep felt nice right now. When was the last time youâve gotten a good rest? Your eyes slowly closed as you took a breath. You were so tired. âdonât, donât blame yourself, link. please.â
The last thing you heard was your name being called before darkness took you.
I like this! My only criticism is that you need to fix your capitalization in the dialogue. There is multiple spots where the first letter isnât capitalized and couple instances where Link isnât capitalized. Otherwise, this fic is fine!
Very clingy Koridai who's been trying to grab reader's attention, who is very hot-headed (but really likes him but shhh.. :>)
Hello, anon! A Koridai x Reader, huh? Okay then! My askbox is always open for Linked Universe x Reader and LU drawing requests! And since Iâm doing this, Iâm showing that Iâm willing to do stuff for non canon members of the Chain!
Anyway, onto the story!
Maybe Heâs Actually Not That BadâŚ
The newest Link that had joined the Chain got on Y/Nâs nerves a lot. He got dubbed as Koridai because that was the name of the kingdom that he saved from Ganon and his minions. Said kingdom neighbored Hyrule. Koridai looked like he was Legendâs estranged long lost cousin. There were differences in appearance and a major difference in personality.
Koridai had fluffier and longer hair, along with it being a darker blonde and having no pink strip. His eyes were dark hazel green instead of blue like Legendâs. He had a more rounded face and more prominent nose, making him look younger than he actually was. He was much more jolly; always raring to go and very expressive.
He was pretty talkative and had very cringeworthy lines he liked to say. Such as âIâm so hungry, I could eat an Octorok!â and âOh boy! I canât wait to bomb some Dodongos!â He said it the same way, pitch, and cadence every time. His usage of âgolly!â was through the roof! Who even says golly nowadays?
One of things he did that infuriated Y/N to no end was when heâd frequently ask her for a kiss for good luck for a battle. Y/N would always snap at him, but he was never bothered by the rejection. Heâd just chuckle into his hand like he was the funniest gremlin in the world. He mustâve been desensitized from his Zelda constantly rejecting him. But that didnât make him lose any steam or made him stop trying.
Y/N has the suspicion that Koridai knows that her hotheadedness towards him is just a front. He probably knows that she actually isnât that annoyed by him. Y/N will admit that she likes how joyful and carefree he is. Most of the Chain was stoic, stubborn grumps. So he was reliever of the staleness.
He was also extraordinarily clingy too. He loved to be a fake drama queen sometimes when Y/N refuses to give him something he wants. Whether that be attention or actually giving him the kiss he desires. He cling to her waist, arm, or leg; and would let Y/N drag him along while he whined at her. Y/N thinks he finds enjoyment in being a weirdo.
He had the habit of showing off, but being all cocky about it. Like bragging he just saved Y/N from a monster, even if it was something as harmless as a singular Zol. More often than not, heâd blast enemies with bursts of fire from his Fire Diamond infused sword. He also liked showing off how many of Harbannoâs cakes he could eat in one sitting. His current record was 32 of those little rectangular cakes; heâd probably never beat that record because eating that many gave him a real bad stomachache.
âŚ
There was one time everyone ended up in Koridaiâs era. He of course pulled Y/N everywhere, holding her hand almost the entire time. Sheâd try to yank her hand away, but he was stronger than he looked, so heâd just tighten his grip just enough so she couldnât let go. He finally let go of her hand when he went to go get some supplies from Morshuâs shop. Y/N decided to follow him in.
She found a beautiful necklace for sale, which looked very out of place here. Morshu was selling stuff that was more useful for adventuring and fighting monsters. Things such as lamp oil, rope, and bombs. She read the sign next to it. Oh, itâs a necklace infused with a protection charm. It was kinda pricey thoughâŚ
âHey, can you give me a cheap deal on this? I donât have quite enough.â Y/N asked.
âSorry, miss! I canât give credit! Come back when youâre a little, mmm richer!â Morshu haughtily replied.
Y/N was about to rudely reply, but Koridai cut in. âFor once, I have enough rubies to pay for that.â
Koridai pulled his wallet out and dumped a sizable amount of cash on the counter. Wait- they were clearly rupees! Are people constantly mishearing each other or do rupees actually have a different name in this era only? Morshu scooped up the money and put it the cash register. He then handed the supplies Koridai had purchased and handed the necklace to Y/N.
They both left the shop, satisfied with their purchases. Well, Koridai was more happy. Y/N was still fuming over Morshuâs snide remark.
âGolly! Morshu hasnât changed a bit.â Koridai chuckled.
âYou mean heâs always been like that?â Y/N grumbled.
âHeâs actually not that bad. Heâs good at keeping stock and the items people need. If you bug him enough he will give you an item for cheap.â he replied amusedly.
âThank you for buying me the necklaceâŚâ Y/N reluctantly admitted.
âOf course!â he grinned.
âDo you want me to pay you back at some point?â she asked.
âOf course not! I wouldnât mind a kiss as payment though~!â he answered, wiggling his eyebrows.
âUgh, fine. Just this one time because you did something nice for me.â Y/N sighed deeply.
âYes!!!â he squealed.
Y/N and Koridai leaned into each other for a kiss. Despite how excited he was, their lips gently met. It was a simple, yet short kiss. Heâs actually not that bad of a kisser. Maybe heâs not actually that bad, heâs actually fun to be aroundâŚ
The End!
I hope you liked it, anon! Again, my askbox is always open for LU x Reader and LU drawing requests! Which also includes non canon members such as Koridai!
So my Idea was the chain meet a stranger later it turns out that it is the sibling of Midna! Twilight is the most confused, how would They be Midnaâs sibling and how did they get here, when the Mirror is broken.
Turn out Midna doesn't know she has a sibling, and that sibling lived their whole life in Hyrule, in a Hylian Form... Zant abandoned them in Hyrule because they are a mix of Twili and Wolf!!
Twilight Ă Twili Reader
Hello, anon! A Twilight x Twili Reader, huh? Alrighty then! My askbox is always open for Linked Universe x Reader and LU drawing requests!
Anyways, onto the story! Sorry for the delay!
The Familiarity of Twilight
Everyone was in Twilightâs era today. They were asking around for rumors and information about the Shadow and the powered up monsters it summons. They started with Hyrule Castle Town, which had the most dense population in one spot. They werenât having that much luck. Some didnât know what they were talking about and then would prattle about something else. Some mentioned rumors and information that theyâve already heard.
They were about to move to another location when someone called out from the alleyway not too far from the Fortune Tellerâs place. The person who called out motioned them closer.
âSorry, Iâm not much of a fan of being out in the open. I have actually heard information about what you all seek.â they explained, their voice sounding female.
The Chain all trailed cautiously into the alleyway, having to form a single file line to due to the size of their group. The woman who spoke up was a tall, redheaded Hylian. She was dressed up in purple robes in a similar fashion as the fortune teller here. She had beautiful amber brown eyes that almost seemed to glow in the shadows of the alleyway. Something about her entire appearance seemed otherworldly, but why? She was just a normal Hylian, right?
âAs you already know, powerful monsters have been on the rise despite the land having been at peace for years thanks to him.â she stated, eyeing Twilight for a moment before continuing. âI know where a grouping happens to be. They have been loitering about in Faron Woods, most likely in the Forest Temple there. Iâve been feeling intense dark magic and signs of monsters being around there. Just earlier today, it felt rather intense. Perhaps their leader or summoner is in thereâŚâ
The Chain nodded in response, letting her know they were listening and knowing she had more to say.
âI could lead you heroes there if youâd like. I have magic thatâll help track it down. Iâm sure you heroes are used to seeing unnatural magic, but still⌠Donât be alarmed.â she offered.
Suddenly her entire form was shrouded in very familiar looking magic. Black squares of dark magic. Twili magic. But how? Twilight was the only one who had access to Twili magic nowadays!
In the womanâs place was a solid black wolf with glowing sea green markings and eyes. On the forehead of the wolf was a metal mask not too dissimilar to the kind that the Shadow Beasts wore(Think like the wolf Midna rides in Hyrule Warriors). The wolf form felt eerily familiar to Warriors and Twilight. It reminded them both strongly of Midna. The wolf huffed, jerking her head to get them all to follow her.
They crowded around her so people didnât freak out and draw the guardsâ attention. Nobody in Hyrule Castle Town reacted kindly to wolves. They all left through the southern exit of Hyrule Castle Town. They marched down the marble staircase and continued southward. They continued this way for a couple hours.
They traversed through Hyrule Field, eventually reaching the forested pathway that led to Faron Woods. They took a turn that was a shortcut to the area in front of the Forest Temple. The woman shifted back, but this time her appearance was different. She was clearly a Twili; bright yellow orange hair that glowed, vibrant red orange eyes with yellow sclera, pale skin with sections of black littered with sea green markings. But how is she here? The Mirror of Twilight had been shattered years ago!
One thing for certain, she looked a lot like Midna. Like she was her sibling. But Midna didnât have any siblings, right? Who is she? Twilight had to know.
âExcuse me, miss. Thereâs something Iâd like to ask you. It might be personalâŚâ Twilight started.
âNot a problem. Ask away, Hero of Twilight.â she replied.
âDo you know of someone by the name of Midna?â he asked.
A sad, yet nostalgic look crossed her face. âI do know of her. Actually⌠Iâm her older sister.â
âW-what? Youâre her sister? She never told me.â Twilight sputtered.
âI canât say Iâm surprised. I was taken away from the Twilight Realm when she was just an infant.â she replied somberly.
âWhy?â he asked.
âZant feared one of us would take the throne from him. Though he wasnât a member of the royal family, he was eligible for the throne due to being a trusted scholar by Midna and Iâs father. Since I was older, he deemed that I was more of a threat. With magic Iâd never seen, he blasted me out of the Twilight Realm. Then I was suddenly in the Realm of Light. Knowing old tales, I knew Hylians wouldnât trust me. So I lived on my own, disguised as a Hylian fortune teller.â she explained.
âIâm so sorryâŚâ Twilight replied softly.
âYou donât have to apologize. I do thank you for helping my sister. I caught glimpses of you and her, but I was afraid to make myself known. I bet she made out to be a fine ruler thanks to you.â she said.
âOf course. I bet she hasâŚâ he replied wistfully.
âCan I rely on you and the others to deal with the monsters here? Their presence ruins the quiet tranquility of this place. I like to have peaceful picnics here again.â she asked, lifting a hand up to cup his cheek.
How nostalgic⌠Twilight thought. With a smile and nod, âOf course we will.â
The End!
I hope you liked it, anon! Again, my askbox is always open for LU x Reader and LU drawing requests!
(Submitted to @welcometothefairgrounds, but posted here. Enjoy!)
Yandere poly chain that obviously aren't into each other but are all obsessed with you.
They would definitely make it a competition of not only how many times you can cum but how much you can take at once.
Could your pretty little mouth fit two dicks at one time? It can now.
Maybe Legend and Wars at the front, competing as to who can fill your mouth (and belly) faster.
Maybe Time at the back, ruthlessly pounding into you and filling you further with load after load with Four slightly underneath you, playing with your sex and giving your hips and thighs little kisses and hickeys.
Maybe Twilight hunched over you on the left, growling and panting in your ear about how you're theirs and theirs alone, you belong to them only; leaving pretty little marks all over your shoulders and neck, so everyone at every village you stop at knows who you belong to.
Your moans and squeals make them all crave you so badly.
Maybe Hyrule on the right, on his knees, pawing at your tits (and the bulge beginning to form in your stomach), kneading them and playing with your nipples, gently pinching and rolling them between his fingers as he coos softly in your ear at how well you're taking everyone.
Maybe Sky just beside him and close to Time, rubbing away that bulge for you, unable to fight back a groan at just how pretty you would look all swollen with their child forming inside you. He uses the other hand to ease his hardness down below.
If stuffing you full with a kid was the only way to ensure you never leave, then so be it.
Maybe Wild, using his sheikah slate to take pictures of the whole thing. He can't help it, you look so pretty like this.
Maybe him saving those pictures for later when he feels a bit needy for you.
Maybe they know it's a lot to have them all surrounding you at once, but they simply can't leave you alone. They can't keep their hands (or mouths) off you, either.
Maybe them all taking a small break after you use the safe word to let them know you're too tired for more. They'd of course bring you a little snack and some water and cuddle you, and afterward, they'd rotate (despite your probable protests) and continue to fill you until you look a few months pregnant.
