Previous Volume   Volume Five: Maracas   Hero, hero, please! I seek your help! Now that I know you can see me, a wonder in and of itself, I know that you can help me. Many have passed through here from the village at the end of the path, but they all look right through me as I stand bereft. You, though, have seen me, so I beg your aid to recover what is lost. My dance. My soul. My…

Previous Volume | Next Volume   Volume Four: Hunting Memories   I am impatient. Not exactly the best way to start a tale, I realize, but you must realize, I am also very old. Many revolutions around the sun have passed in my life, many seasons come and gone. I do not have much time left, and I am ready to go. Truthfully, I believe I lost my sprouthood and became an adult the day the Calamity rose. I remember…

Previous Volume | Next Volume   Volume Three: Brave Pilgrim   I am not afraid. I look around me and see these trees are not the trees of my home; they twist and smile. They look mean. The winds echo with laughter, and the fog obscures my way. I know beyond the canopy, the midday sun shines high in the sky, yet within these woods, everything even feels so very dark. But I am not afraid. And I will keep…

Previous Volume | Next Volume   Volume Two: A Glowing Dream   Glowy. Hoppy. Glowy hoppy! They hop and they glow! Blue and shiny and perfect. And someday, I will meet one. I’m still too young to leave these woods, you see. I have a few more seasons before I can finally step foot out of the Korok Forest and make my way through the vast land of Hyrule. But when I do, oh…I will find one. I can hardly…

Next Volume   I have been here for so long. Empires have risen, empires have fallen, ages of golden peace and blackened terror have reigned among the people of this Goddess Land. And through it all, I have watched among the trees and spirits of the forest. I know fire. I know sun. I know rain and moon and time. Once, I knew an evil so dark, it ate me alive from the inside, completing one cycle and beginning the…

Please, Don’t Wake Up I know your world awaits your return, that you were never meant to be here. Once you open your eyes, I know that you will disappear, never to look back.   It pains me to realize that I shall never again cast a glance upon you. You shall never again listen to my song, and my voice will fade into the winds.   So, please, don’t wake up.   Perhaps it is selfish of me to…

Hylia plopped to her haunches in exasperation, burying her face in her hands. “How do they not see…?” she mumbled under her breath, clutching the long, golden locks that framed her face.  “I don’t know what more I can do! Calamity Ganon will rise to power in no time, at this rate!” “For one thing, Your Grace,” her hero sighed, sitting next to her in the grass, “you can calm down a bit.” Hylia glared at him, and he winked…

I have the worst job in Hyrule. Please, don’t laugh. Trust me, I get that enough whenever I mention this at the local pub. Just hear me out. I have the worst job in this entire land. Sure, you have Her Highness, who, Goddesses bless, does her best day in and day out to keep us all together and keep the forces of evil at bay. She bears the weight of all her people with grace and dignity, and she…
