❝ i was shattered. i lost everything. ❞ ❝ i warned you not to take me lightly. ❞ ❝ we’re partners, aren’t we? ❞ ❝ ever since we’ve met, you’ve been disobedient and rude. ❞ ❝ take suffering as your companion, and unease and fear as friends. if you do, darkness will become light. ❞ ❝ it’s a cold world out there. you’ve gotta learn to trust folks. ❞ ❝ as you stand before me now, you’re all desperation and bravado. that is not true bravery. ❞ ❝ you can’t change your past and you can’t change who you were. you can only decide who you’re going to be. ❞ ❝ resentment is a trap of the heart into which everyone falls. ❞ ❝ you don’t look well. are you ill? ❞ ❝ you were born into life with a destiny. you cannot run away from that. ❞ ❝ you carry a smouldering darkness inside you. ❞ ❝ it’s considered impolite not to give your all in a fight. ❞ ❝ at dusk and dawn…it’s easy for all sorts of things to sneak by. ❞ ❝ since that day, so much has changed for me. ❞ ❝ i’m sorry. it’s been hard, huh? ❞ ❝ a true hero must shoulder a heavy responsibility. ❞ ❝ stay calm. move cautiously and remain vigilant. ❞ ❝ one more time. try telling the truth. ❞ ❝ why keep fighting until you’re just a broken wreck? ❞ ❝ if we start a fight, we must be ready to hit back. ❞ ❝ in the end, it’s easier just to be selfish. ❞ ❝ i was lost without you. i was lonely. ❞ ❝ why do i so often taste this sense of loss? ❞ ❝ i think both our journeys are pointing to the same place. ❞ ❝ power does not inhabit a blade without bravery. ❞ ❝ did you hear something? like the cry of a beast… ❞ ❝ what’s wrong? if you’re too weak, then just leave. ❞ ❝ what is strength? is it displays of power mocking the weak? destroying beauty simply to satisfy your greed? ❞ ❝ you get too worked up over things. ❞ ❝ easy for you to say. i’m the one getting beat up. ❞ ❝ i don’t need thanks. i didn’t do it for you. ❞ ❝ depending on your attitude…i might be able to help. ❞ ❝ if you don’t do as i say, i’ll take your arm off. ❞ ❝ as leader, i will not choose the path of pain and death for my people. i must protect them. ❞ ❝ strength isn’t about power…it’s about being brave. ❞ ❝ you have good eyes. the eyes of a proud beast. ❞ ❝ if the need arises, i will not hesitate to pick up a sword and fight. ❞ ❝ i guessed you had a secret past. people can try to hide it, but nature shows through. ❞ ❝ i was lying when i said i’d never held a sword.❞ ❝ there’s no time for sentimentality. ❞ ❝ if someone comes in who knows about your past, i’ll protect you if they try to hurt you. ❞ ❝ is there something strange about me? ❞ ❝ be careful…there have been monsters around here lately. ❞ ❝ choose…surrender or die. ❞ ❝ when i feel uneasy or afraid i just think: ‘this is my mission’. ❞ ❝ don’t take me for nothing more than a fine doll good only for decoration. ❞ ❝ i’m nothing more than dirt. i’m not worth all that effort. ❞ ❝ why do you think we’re any safer here? ❞ ❝ don’t die on me now. ❞ ❝ ha! even you have a good idea sometimes. ❞ ❝ i fought through all kinds of monsters to get here…and i survived. ❞ ❝ i’ve spent so long looking for you! i’m so glad you’re safe. ❞ ❝ people are always hovering over me…and it’s so suffocating! ❞ ❝ some detours lead to unexpected good luck. ❞ ❝ you say whatever you think…i’ve never done that. ❞ ❝ there is no greater joy than helping a friend. ❞ ❝ what do you mean ‘never mind’? ❞ ❝ these days such peaceful travels are rare indeed. ❞ ❝ wildly rushing into danger isn’t courage. ❞ ❝ didn’t you say there’s something you need to do, no matter what it takes? ❞ ❝ i sense unprecedented danger approaching. ❞ ❝ how do you feel now, looking back upon yourself at that time? ❞ ❝ as usual, you’re a wimp. ❞ ❝ resentment is dangerous. it comes in through the slightest crack in your heart. ❞ ❝ i’d go to the ends of the earth for you. ❞ ❝ it really hasn’t been that long, but you’ve grown into a fine man. ❞ ❝ now is the time for us to take back all that was stolen. ❞ ❝ one thing’s certain — those aren’t human. ❞ ❝ what do you fight to protect? answer. ❞ ❝ i wish you wouldn’t do such dangerous things. ❞ ❝ if you got hurt due to my mistakes…i don’t think i could live with that. ❞ ❝ why would you do all that…when we’ve only just met? ❞ ❝ it’s a pretty name. perfect for you. ❞ ❝ once your wounds heal, you’ll need to leave right away. ❞ ❝ the hero on his knees! quite a sight. ❞ ❝ how does it feel to be so strong? quite a rush, isn’t it? ❞ ❝ you’re all puffed up on your own arrogance…drunk on your own pride. ❞ ❝ i once wondered how good you are…now i see you’re really skilled. ❞ ❝ i’m not physically strong like you…but my wits, brains and analysis can be helpful. ❞ ❝ don’t say you can’t accept that this is the end. ❞ ❝ you just want to satisfy your own ambition and lust for power. ❞ ❝ it’ll be all right because we’re together. ❞ ❝ why would you leave me at a time like this? ❞ ❝ for the first time i feel like i’m overflowing with incredible power. ❞ ❝ there’s no time for doubt. you are the chosen one. ❞ ❝ your problem is that you demand absolute perfection. ❞ ❝ there is no easy path. but you can definitely overcome it. ❞ ❝ i’m so very sorry. i broke my promise. i hurt you. ❞ ❝ that’s the spirit. hate me more. only then will this fight be worthwhile. ❞ ❝ i thought you were dead. ❞ ❝ well…? say something. or has my beauty left you speechless? ❞ ❝ i never forgot you. not for one moment. ❞ ❝ sorry for killing the mood. ❞ ❝ light and shadow are two sides of the same coin. one cannot exist without the other. ❞ ❝ if you desire something…then that is my desire too. ❞ ❝ who says i’m afraid of you? ❞ ❝ your weapon is little better than a toy. ❞ ❝ all that awaits you is despair. ❞ ❝ i’ve done the unforgivable. i betrayed you. ❞ ❝ i’m here to repay you for what you’ve done. ❞ ❝ since i’ve met you, we’ve travelled a long way…and a lot has happened. ❞ ❝ are you on a journey of self-discovery? ❞ ❝ that was a great strike. if i was a hair slower, you’d have gutted me. ❞ ❝ when i was young, i wanted to be a hero. ❞ ❝ your struggle is futile. ❞ ❝ as you can see, i know how to fight. ❞ ❝ my hatred toward you will not be satisfied by merely killing you once or twice. ❞ ❝ you’ve been through a lot. ❞ ❝ whose side are you on? light or shadow? ❞ ❝ if you run then we’re done for! fight to survive! ❞ ❝ i’m not strong enough. not good enough. ❞ ❝ i must crush your bones, rip out your organs and relish your lingering cries of pain. ❞ ❝ that was close, huh? ❞ ❝ rest now. you don’t have to fight any more. ❞ ❝ i bear this sword so i can protect my home in times like this. ❞

MUN MONDAY TUESDAY: GETTING TO KNOW YOU
respond to the following prompts out of character, then tag others you'd like to get to know a little bit better.
Roleplayer name: Ale
Roleplayer pronouns: he / him
Muse name: Link
Preferred communication: discord because tumblr doesn't always notificate me of messages and I can end up missing them or answering pretty late.
Experience: I have been writing Link for 2 months now but I have been writing my other muse, Robb Stark, for 4 years I think it's going to be 5 soon.
Preferred roleplay type: dialogue. I usually write between 2 or 4 paragraphs depending on what is is ( a starter, a reply to an ask... ) and how much muse I have at that moment.
Pet peeves & dealbreakers: mostly that people hurry me for a reply to something because, come on, this is something we do on our free time and when we feel good enough to be here ( and I don't need to feel pressured ) and because I will never do that to you. Also, we are all here to have fun so I don't like to see a lack of respect towards someone or that people break the basic rp etiquette.
Plot or memes: memes, I think they are really good ice breakers to get things going. However, I'm, of course, always up to plotting so feel free to like any of the post I reblog for that ( if you are shy and you want me to message you ) or send me a message!
Long replies or short replies: long replies. You can never be sure with short ones if you are gonna have enough things to work with for your own reply.
Best time to write: I write mostly on the late afternoon. Though I sometimes also write in the morning, specially during the weekend.
Are you like your muse?: well Link is far cooler than me but I would say that I'm like him in some aspects because I would do anything for those really close to me and because sometimes I need to keep my feelings to myself to be the strong person in the group.

The more I watch a gameplay and the more I read the manga of tp the more I love Midna.
Honestly loving Link's new icon
I swear, the tp maga is just... purely a masterpiece.
Trying to come up with a modern au for Link and honestly the closets I'm getting to his role in canon is that he's a bodyguard of the royal family.

Just saw the new trailer for echoes of wisdom and let me just tell you that it's looking even better than it already did.
Just finished the ocarina of time gameplay I was watching to help me remember the story and now it's time for twilight princess.
❝ this is your fate. don’t feel discouraged, even in the darkest of times. ❞ ( from zelda ! )
Legend of zelda starters / Accepting
HE MAY HAVE BEEN CHOSEN, BUT THAT FATE WAS FAR GREATER THAN HIMSELF. A mantle of responsibility bestowed upon him by forces beyond his understanding that, at times, seemed almost too heavy for any shoulders to bear. How could anyone in his position not have doubts ? Not wonder the reasons why it was them and not someone else ? NOT BE AFRAID OF NOT BEING ENOUGH IN THE END ? The questions swirled incessantly in his mind, each one more haunting than the last.
However, courage was not the lack of fear, but continuing despite of it. And it was the moment she said those words when the hero felt it coming back to him. Her calm and resolute voice carried a faith that made the path ahead, which was still daunting, now seem a bit less insurmountable. She was the same as him. Both thrust into roles that intertwined their lives with the destiny of their land. She understood what he was going through, he was sure. And that was perhaps what gave her the power to lift some of the weight from him.
❝ I will not fail you nor Hyrule, princess, ❞ Link finally spoke, letting go of her hand as he stood from his knee and regained his full height ❝ I promise ❞ his voice was soft yet resolute, carrying a tone of personal conviction along with the determination, which was now unmistakable in his eyes, that revealed that his words were far more than a mere declaration of his duty. They were a pledge of unwavering commitment, not just because it was expected of him, but because he believed in the cause.
❝ it seems shadow has been moved by light. ❞ ( so there are options! )

IT WAS THE ORDER OF THINGS, HOW THIS CIRCLE THAT NEVER SEEMED TO COME TO AN END WORKED. The demon king had finally been defeated, and the hero was the one who remained standing. As the smoke cleared, he emerged from the haze, with slightly torn clothes and dirt and sweat smearing his face, illuminated by a gleam of blue light. The battlefield, now visible all around him, was a testament to the ferocity of their clash, with charred earth and shattered stones bearing witness to the struggle.
All of his muscles should be resenting from it — begging him from some well deserved rest. Though perhaps the adrenaline coursing through his body was what was keeping him from collapsing right there and then. What was giving him the necessary strength to address the question that had been gnawing at his mind ever since he had learned of the destiny awaiting him ❝ tell me, ❞ the knight began, turning around as he placed the legendary sword back in its sheath when he heard their voice from behind.
❝ is it truly over now ? ❞ Link asked between heavy breaths, his voice a mixture of both hope and doubt. Sapphire eyes remained steady, locking onto those of the sheikah. Their enemy had been sealed but, would it be enough ? And if it was only temporary... how long would peace last before Hyrule had to face such chaos and malice once more ? As he awaited their answer, he could feel his heart pound quickly inside his chest. Yet, regardless of what it might be, he wanted, needed to hear it.
Okay! Carrd is finally up!

Hey listen! I know that in botw/totk it is the sword that gets more strength when it faces Ganon or monsters created by him but, what if it was because when it shines with its blue light Link gets somewhat connected to the spirit inside the sword (Fi) via a very subtitle melody in the back pf his mind (which are actually words he can't even understand yet) that guides his movements?

TARGARYENS HAD ALWAYS HAD FIRE RUNNING THROUGH THEIR VEINS, AND HIS QUEEN WAS NO DIFFERENT. It had passed down through generations and to extinguish it would be to rid her of the very essence that made her who she was. A leader who inspired love and loyalty in anyone around her. But fire could be as dangerous as it was magnificent if allowed to blaze without control. As her servant, the knight felt it was his responsibility to shield her from that double-edged sword.
❝ If I may speak freely, your grace ❞ Link began, with the respect she was due ❝ it is not your temper that frightens me ❞ After all, without the strength she seemed to draw from it, he was sure it would have been impossible for anyone, let alone someone so young, to accomplish what Daenerys had. She was the girl who saw solutions no one else was capable of — the girl who had walked into the flames with three stones and walked out with three dragons. How could she not believe she was destined for great things ?
❝ but rather it leading you to danger ❞ her growing conviction in her own infallibility had made her ignore her advisors' arguments more than once. It had blurred the fine line between bravery and recklessness and caused her to step into many risky situations because she believed her fate was to sit the Iron Throne and nothing would stop her before that. Yet fate was a fickle thing, as changing as the wind. And it wouldn't be the first time the world had witnessed the fall of a dragon.
Not me having a theme for boys who are absolutely more mature than they should be for their age because of the tragic events they have had the bad luck of living.
OMG I just saw this quote about being a god's chosen meaning you are also a god's cursed and like... it's so true for Link? Having the triforce of courage may be seen as a blessing, but he is also doomed to continue fighting forever this great evil which threatens humanity and doomed to never actually die or come back if he does because Hylia just can't afford his loss?
I believe you all should let Link be your muse's protector. He will literally do anything for them.
I still need to work on Link's origins but in his hotd verse he is a young knight (19-20 years old) who is more or less famous for helping those in need and eventually becomes the substitute of Erryk (for the blacks) or Arryk (for the greens).

THE KNIGHT MOVED SILENTLY THROUGH THE MOONLIT ANCIENT RUINS. The air was cool and crisp, the stillness of the night broken only by the distant hoot of an owl. As he navigated the labyrinth of pathways, he eventually noticed a large open courtyard where vines twisted around old pillars, and the remnants of what might once have been a grand fountain lay at the center, now dry and cracked. They had told him that he may be able to find clues that helped him understand what had happened to her there. But where ?
He began examining the area though suddenly a chill ran down his spine. As if there was a palpabable energy there, an undercurrent of magic that made the hairs of the back of his neck stand on end. He had company. His hand instinctively moved to the hilt of his sword, drawing it out of its sheath and readying himself for anything that might come ❝ whoever you are I suggest you come out ❞ Link's voice broke the silence that had reigned up to that instant. And, despite his calm demeanor, there was an unmistakable edge to his words — a subtle warning.
