Link Of All Hyrule - Tumblr Posts

ok, I’ve been working on this one for quite some time and I think it’s finally ready AU concept: In OoT, instead of Link getting the master sword and sleeping for seven years, he’s not able to pull her from the pedestal (you know in BotW when you try to get the sword with not enough hearts? something like this happens). So, Link travels across Hyrule and trains and lives with the many races of the land, learning their ways of fighting and their wisdom. He slowly becomes a hero to the people of the land and starts to be called “Link of all Hyrule”. He keeps learning to get stronger in heart, body and mind, so one day, he may have the strenght needed to wield the sacred blade, and finally be able to defeat the king of evil. I plan to work a little more on this AU. let’s see where it goes!




So I decided to pick up again this au ideia I had some months ago, the “Link of All Hyrule” au. basic premise: OoT, but instead of Link sleeping for seven years, he has to travel and train and grow stronger to one day become fit of wielding the Master Sword. Link: As he travels trough Hyrule, he starts to become a sort of myth. Many believe he is, in fact, the hero of legend meant to save Hyrule. They start calling him “the link of all hyrule” as he trained and lived with all the Hyrule races, carrying all of their teachings and strenghs (and in his armor, each piece a token from some time with a different race). His design was meant to show this, and also be a little reminiscent of the First Hero. Zelda: Design meant to mirror Hylia, with elements of Tetra. She lost her memory while living as Sheik to protect herself from Ganon, and travels many times alongside Link while in disguise. Even as Sheik, her desire to protect Hyrule shines strongly, and she ends up sharing a deep bond with Link. Ganon: As he became Demon King, he slowly started to lose more and more of his humanity, eventually reaching a form similar to his beast one. He was the one to scar Link, as the boy tried to protect Zelda, who was fleeing from the castle. Design inspired by that concept art in Hyrule Historia with a half-beast Ganondorf that I think too much about, with a bit of HW Ganon. that’s it for now. Also happy new year four days late, everyone!
