    Summary

    Two months after the events of Follow The Lights, The Chain return to Wild’s Hyrule for the first time.

    When they last were here, the Shrines were behaving weirdly, they left in a hurry, and everyone had a bad time. Now the Chain has to face what they left behind.

    Not only do they have new enemies to face and a missing brother to find – there are fears to overcome, mysteries to solve… And where are the black-blooded monsters they’re here to hunt, anyway?...

    Summary

    The one who wielded me for the first time wished for me to store certain memories from our time together. The memories, he said, that I believed were the most important. Soon after, another asked me to do the same with her memories. I did so, and I have kept those memories within me ever since.

    And now, it is once again time for me to tell their story.


    "Powerless" is a story told from the perspective of Fi, the Spirit of the Master Sword. It recounts the adventures of a Link and Zelda from the Era of the Sky, whose lives were ever so slightly different from their original counterparts. With Link as a musician and Zelda as a knight, how will the events of the story unravel this time?

    Summary

    Takuto Maruki has put his entire life into his reality. Years of blood, sweat, and tears. Countless sleepless nights and dreary days. He's given everything he has and more to achieve his perfect reality.

    But some of the very people he wishes to save seem to be so vehemently against his utopia. Takuto can't wrap his head around it, he can't imagine why ANYONE - let alone the Phantom Thieves - would want to return to the old world full of nothing but pain and sorrow and trauma.

    This is a short look into Takuto Maruki's mind as the Phantom Thieves continually reject and push back against his utopia, and how he copes and processes that fact while continuing to try to convince them of his righteous cause.

    Summary

    Latin; a dead language with no practical applications except perhaps the deciphering of old texts and as a particularly quaint party trick.

    Thankfully, as Harry finds out, Latin is not as dead as he was first taught when he decided to learn the language. It wouldn't have mattered anyway, of course; he loved Latin, and would have been proud to know it even had it been as useless as it was pretty. But in the world of Wizards, the world of Magic, Harry realizes his rare talent with words is particularly valuable, and allows him to use magic that no one's ever heard of, that no one's ever seen. But as time goes on, and he becomes more and more entangled in the webs spun by those around him, he starts to realize just how deep the magical rabbit hole goes and how dangerous power like his can be.

    All Harry had ever wanted was for the world to make sense.
