Summary
The silence grew cloying, only cut by clockwork. The air was suffocating. The temple walls echoed with a held breath. Groose’s knee bounced uncontrollably. He had done his part. The world teetered on the edge of a blade, and he could do no more.
The Gate kept time, counting the seconds of purgatory.
Groose tried to do the same.

Summary
There are many stories that have been told. Great legends of epic battles waged across time and space. Small tales about the simplicity of life in brief moments of respite. Stories of heroes and villains and heroes pretending to be villains and villains pretending to be heroes. Stories of young children who faced impossible odds and still came back out alive. Stories of the greatest people in the world trying to put themselves back together after life attempted to tear them all apart. Stories of friendship, of bravery, of a love that burns like wildfires across millennia. Stories of mind-shattering loss that twisted the kindest, most innocent souls into jaded warriors with skin darkened by the sun.
But what would you do if it turned out that it all could’ve been different?
If it all could’ve been stopped?
The Links answer these questions.AKA the Chain finds out a secret or two and everyone takes it the worst way possible.
AKA Shit's fucked up and everyone has problems. Lucky that they can all blame someone, huh?This is the last prompt for the Chosen and the Champion (Switch Gang Tribute)!

There it is again, that funny feeling... by Illegible_Handwriting for Raylin_James_Shire

...uh, yeah. It's called deja vu.
There is a boy, and there is a mask.
There are stories that say there are two boys, or three. Some say that the mask is bloodthirsty, but some say it is benevolent.
Some people whisper about the glorious battles that were won because the boys and the mask worked together. Some people say that those wars were fought between the boys and the mask itself.
A few stories say that the boy and the mask are one and the same.
Hm.
I wonder what the truth is.Unrelated one-shots about/surrounding Sky and the Fierce Deity. Let’s see how many ideas my new favorite underrated idea can create

Summary
The Sealed Grounds were silent on the night the world ended.
The Chosen Hero had stood against Demise in all his dark power, standing up straight despite the raw waves of evil coming off of the god. He had bargained for a duel to the death. Demise had accepted, allowing the Hero to follow after him into a realm beyond reality. And the Chosen Hero had fought through the waves of dark magic pushing against him, entering the portal without a glance behind him.
And high above the lingering portal, a young man clutched the body of a dear friend.
~~~
AKA what on EARTH was Groose doing during the Demise fight?

Summary
Sky feels guilty. Ever since the end of his adventure, he had known he had fucked up. But it was only after he had met his future reincarnations that he realized just how much he had failed. Even so, he does his best to enjoy his new friends' company, knowing that it can't last forever. Not after they figure out what he's done.
Wild is scared. He will never admit it, but he is the most terrified of his new friends - his new brothers - learning just how badly he failed. He is scared of them all learning how he died and left his best friend and his world to fend for themselves. He is scared of being shunned, of being thought of as any less of a hero than everyone else is.
And unbeknownst to our heroes, a darkness lurks, its millennia-old bitterness festering for just a little more, but they're patient. They can wait for the opportune moment where just one light push will make it all worth it. It has been ready for this moment for a long, long time. There is someone who wronged them, sent them spiraling into the most hellish existence possible.
They are going the watch the Chosen Hero of Hylia break, and they'll be wearing a smile.
Started because of SkSwHD, and now it's got plot.

Summary
"Something was in that sword,” Legend told them all. “Where did it go?”
They both stared at Sky. To Time's horror, a slow smile began spreading across the Skyloftian's face at their words.
“Oh,” the thing wearing Sky's body pouted. “You guessed, did you? I suppose that means the game is up.”
