It's So Bittersweet That The Reader And Link Finally Managed To Fulfill That Promise, Even If It Took

It's so bittersweet that the reader and Link finally managed to fulfill that promise, even if it took another lifetime to do it. First really hits differently with the fact that he was doomed by narrative.

Spending years in imprisonment by the people he wanted to protect, the goddesses not doing crap to help, only to be released because they realized their "mistake" and kinda need him now, and dying in the end.

His love for the land and its people will always have me shambles because it was never fair. I love the idea that he created a connection with a person who's in a similar situation as him. And I appreciate the fact that he was given some sense of gratitude in the end because he really deserves it.

It's wonderful to see you again! And blessing with another piece of your writing. I hope everything will go well for you, take it easy!

One of my favorite things about LOZ is how it tackles the subject of cyclic reincarnation and how some things parallel and mirror each other even when not quite staying the same (a consistent temporal leitmotif if you will), I adore angst and tragedy but Link has gone through enough so I'll give him something good as a treat even if it took MANY years and timelines to get there lol.

First really does hit different which is why he's honestly one of my favorite Links to write for, this man was given absolutely no chance by the narrative, he tried so so hard to keep his people safe with the tools he was given, to be scorned by the people he loves and wants to protect the most, spending so many years deprived of his freedom, he loved them so so much and it didn't matter until he was actually proven right and needed, he had all the right to turn away from everything once he was free and yet he didn't, he still chose to fight for them and protect them and died for them and it really wasn't fair at all and it destroys me a little on the inside every time.

(Especially taking into account that the reason Hylia let it happen was all because it was part of her plan as a 'trial', man already had some indiference towards the divine and that probably didn't help which makes it even more impressive that he took up arms nonetheless.)

Hopefully when I actually expand on this I can fully bring that feeling to life and do it justice, I really feel like First deserves happiness and I'm really happy you liked it! He tried his hardest for Hyrule and honestly deserves all of the best for it! ^^

(Sorry if I'm all over the place I have zero sleep and no coffee-)

It's great to be back in the swing of things! And I'm always happy to write for this fandom and these guys who are so important to me, thank you so much for reading as always and for the well wishes! ^^
