    Summary

    "See, all we have to do is put our savings in this here jar! Eventually, we'll have saved enough to buy anything we set our minds to!" Partitio declared proudly.

    Osvald, at last, spoke. Perhaps his silence had been forcibly broken by exasperation, because the professor's voice was even more brusque than usual. "...One hundred thousand leaves. For a boat that has yet to even be fully built."

    Either Partitio failed to notice the tone, or he was willfully ignoring it as he merrily patted the jar. "That's right!"

    "That is–"

    "What a wonderful idea." Temenos interrupted serenely.

    Summary

    kriegspiel,/ˈkriːɡspiːl/ (noun) : an unorthodox chess game in which the players only know for certain the moves of their own pieces.

    The tales of Power, Courage and Wisdom have been written in history. Their roles are engraved in stone. However, humans have this ineffable attachment to their free will, and sometimes act in unexpected ways. One of three chess pieces is sent on a journey across his land to another, and finds things aren't as prophesied :
    Perhaps the stone has begun to crumble.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    The characters are enthralling, the world building is gorgeous, and the whole fic in general is superbly written. I highly, highly recommend reading. I honestly think this fic would make an incredible Zelda game and it is genuinely one of the most well-written pieces of fanfic I've ever read.

    Summary

    The day before he fought Ganon the first time, he’d visited all the people he’d come to know and all the Champions waiting for release. He had thought it would be the last time he’d ever see them. He’d even made peace with it.

    Now, that yesterday is nearing a month ago for Link, and he is so tired.

    “I did,” he says. “I went. Fought Ganon.”

    “— Did you have to retreat?”

    “…Didn’t fight it today. Five days ago. And ten. But also today.”

    Link defeats the Calamity. And then he faces it again and again and again and again—

    Summary

    “Hurley, I’ve been thinking…I want to change my name.”

    He blinked. “Why would you want to do something like that?” he asked, genuinely confused. “Your name is lovely.”

    For a great detective, sometimes he could be quite clueless.
