Summary
“Thank you Link, Hero of Hyrule.”
Her voice flows over him, filling him the way it had so many times since he first heard it in the Shrine of Resurrection. He forces himself to look at the princess he fought so hard to retrieve.
She lowers her head, clasping her hands against her chest. “May I ask…do you really remember me?”
She meets his eyes again, and something inside of him cracks. With pity. With pain. Because, as he stares at Princess Zelda, descendant of the goddess, the one who has guided him and called to him all this time, he knows he is about to break her heart.
Because he does not remember her at all.
----
After the defeat of Calamity Ganon, Link and Zelda set off to unite Hyrule, despite the fact that Link does not have his memories, and Zelda is still recovering from her imprisonment in the castle. Along the way, they wrestle with their relationships with each other, themselves, and the people they want to protect.
This story serves as a loose connection between Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, exploring the relationship between Link and Zelda in the wake of disaster.

“Well then?” There’s a wry smile on her face. Link wonders if it doesn’t seem a little forced. “Aren’t you going to ask me if I know any nice girls?”
You're a nice girl, he wants to say.
Except she isn’t.
Because Zelda isn’t nice.
She’s perfect.
Suitors arrive in Hyrule for the chance to claim Zelda’s hand in marriage, much to the chagrin of the Princess and her chosen knight.

Summary
A century ago, Link walked behind her. Steps in sync with hers, eyes always upon her back, his face a mask of indifference. Zelda wanted nothing more than to rid herself of his constant presence.
Five years ago, he walked beside her. A smile upon his face, mischief in his eyes, his expressions loud and free. Zelda basked in their joint freedom, their choices finally uninhibited.
Now, he walks before her. Sword drawn, eyes vigilant, ready to shield her from any danger, to keep her from being torn away from him once again. Zelda, truthfully, is at a loss for how to react.
A look at their lives before the Calamity, after the Calamity, and after the Upheaval.
