Summary
A hundred years after the Calamity and the story of the Hero’s heart, everything has changed.
The surviving knights of Hyrule’s army have adapted to a new world — learning to survive in a fractured economy, to live with the lingering shadow of disaster, and to let go of the hope that a hero would ever return.
But on an ordinary, sunlit day, a familiar face reappears.
And with him… everything begins to shift.
For the better — or something else entirely?Series

Summary
As serene night fell in Hateno Village, a baby girl was born to the highest ranking family in the village. An exhausted mother cradling her crying newborn to her chest to allow them to feed, and an enraged father expressing his disgust towards the birth of a girl instead of the boy he wanted to pass down his family’s legacy. The man would approach his wife and express his desire to hide the child's biological sex in lieu of keeping their reputation as the strongest family of warriors in their village.
Without much of a choice, the baby’s mother hesitantly agreed, bestowing the name Link to her child.

Summary
Following the defeat of the Calamity, Link takes Zelda to Kakariko Village. Neither of them are sure what to do with their lives now that the evil has been defeated...at least, not that they're willing to admit to the other. The Cucco of Enforcement takes matters into her feathery hands— er, wings?
In other words, I saw that this tag was added to the No Fandom canonicals in the latest update and I spat out my iced coffee.

Summary
The Calamity is over, and Hyrule is free. But while Link has had months to come to terms with the world he left behind, for Zelda it is only now beginning. As her body heals, she finds it is not just physical recovery she needs. Wracked with guilt that her powers woke too late to stop the calamity and haunted with dreams of Link dying in her arms, she must make peace with all she has lost, before she can find a way to move forward in the world she saved.
[Post-Calamity. Zelink. Healing, grief, and choosing the life you want.]

Summary
'Younger than the rest of the guard, with his boyish face and bright blue eyes, and yet with a more stoic countenance than any of them. I didn't know his name, and, truthfully; I didn't want to.
He couldn't have been much older than me, perhaps thirteen. I had heard of a young knight, the youngest ever to be appointed, among the castle gossip, but I hadn't paid it much attention. It seemed that he had been placed on door duty during our banquets.'
Filling in two of the voice memories from Zelda Notes: Dreading Banquets and The Royal Family's Dining Table.

“Is this a dream?” he asks. “Or a memory?”

After rescuing Zelda from the Calamity, Link decides to remember her.
