@bokettochild (I’m @ing you because you’re probably the biggest person who reblogged and I want to get this around)
I think everyone misread the tone about Legend and Fable. Like, everyone is entitled to their opinion about them, I have no problem with that
The post was mostly dogging on my For You because they always came in pairs. I found the parallel funny, not disgusting or bad
The post wasn’t a bash at anyone who shipped those two and I’m sorry if it felt like that
But yeah, I hate when people take things the wrong way and jump on my back about it
I made the post about Time holding Wolfie and how that was attractive and the only thing people took from it were HIS GAUNTLETS MAKE HIM STRONGER like…that’s not the point of the post, but I digress
So yeah, everyone read the tone wrong and I’m sorry if it came across as rude. I’m literally on no one’s side with that ship. I mean, zelink is probably the most popular loz ship, but like…
With the defeat of ganondorf in totk, it’s hard to think where the franchise could go, especially that it seems that in the botw universe, the entity of ganon has been defeated. Here’s my theory (or dream) of what is in store for Link and Zelda.
I think that it would be super cool to use botw and totk’s world and characters for one more game, making this series a trilogy. However, I don’t think the enemy should be directly gloom or malice (or ganon) related. I think the game should continue to focus on the zonai, and what happened to them.
In totk, we learn that Rauru and Mineru are the only two zonai who stayed in hyrule, while the rest left after some time. It’s possible they returned to the sky. Additionally when botw concept art was being released, there was an image of Link looking at a ufo like object. While the tech that appeared in botw (and totk) is some of the most advanced tech that has been in the franchise, nothing like this truly appears in either game. So, what if this ufo like thingy is in fact the zonai?
This is where the story for the third game in the botw world begins. After defeating Ganondorf and integrating zonai tech into the world of hyrule, the world finally seems that peace. However, one day, the zonai return, wanting to take back their technology that Rauru and Mineru provided. In fact, it could be possible that the other zonai resent them for sharing their power, and use the upheaval as an example to why they need to take all secret stones and zonai tech back. However, their approach isn’t totally peaceful, and link, Zelda, and the sages have to work to stop them.
For links powers in this game, it could be really interesting to see the creative team lean more into the powers of the goddess hylia, since the theme of the game would surround the ancient magical powers of the master sword, and of hyrule, going up against a foe that is much more advanced than them.
That’s all, sorry for the kind of messy brain dump, but I think this concept would be super awesome and I’m honestly not ready to let go of the botw and totk world yet!!!!
The world was hidden in a curtain of grey and white. The sound of heavy rainfall echoed in the air, water pelting his skin as he sat on slick stone. Whether it served to bring him to reality or help hide him from it was another matter, but his mind was certainly lost to the white noise.
Abel stared tiredly ahead. The rain brought life to Hyrule, promises of renewal to a land scorched by evil. He hadn’t thought much of it in the past. There was nothing to be renewed for him. He’s lost nearly all he knew and loved, and he’d tried desperately to hide what remained from the malice that had claimed everyone else.
Lyra never listened though.
Every raindrop felt like a bite, promises of renewal felt like a cruel joke.
Tilieth had always loved the rain. Link had never been a huge fan of it.
“Sir Abel?”
He barely heard the words. It wasn’t until the fourth call, with a gentle hand on his shoulder, that he turned. The Lurelin teenager looked back at him, eyes worried.
“She’s going to be okay,” the swordsman said earnestly. “The healers even said it.”
The rain was deafening. He didn’t register the words. He still saw his boy, bleeding and broken, skin charred, bone exposed, all washed away in the torrential downpour as golden light shone from the castle.
“Sir Abel?”
Ice hovered near him, it seemed. His right side was freezing. The swordsman, on his left, looked behind him as if asking someone something, but no one else was there.
She’s going to be ok, the wind seemed to whisper.
“We’ll destroy it,” the new Hero assured Abel. “I promise… we’ll get it right this time.”
Abel came to life in an instant, eyes sharp as he glared at the boy. “No.”
The boy flinched despite how quietly the command was spoken. It held such strength and bite to it, he might as well have screamed it.
No one else was going to get hurt. He would face the Divine Beast alone.
