THE CHAIN LINKS
Gen: The Link from Skyward Sword. Short for Genesis, which he will never ever let anyone call him by ever because he doesn’t actually like it. He’s generally level-headed and appreciates common sense, and gets a bit miffed when things decide to divert from said common sense. He’s the group medic, not necessarily by any skill on his part, but more because the group needed a medic and he couldn’t believe there wasn’t one yet, so the only logical decision was to do it himself. He gets very particular about the group taking the proper amount of healing items as a result. He functions as one-third of the Leader Trio and is the effective ‘super-ego’, if you will

At a certain point, they’d just start playing the Lullaby for everything just to see what happens.

According to canon, the Drablands extend through Time and Space and sometimes you can meet your alternate Heroic self on the same journey as you and it’s just more convenient to team up when that happens.

So by that logic… they’re the exact same person from adjacent dimensions… which can probably be simplified down to ‘triplets’ as far as genetics are concerned. Siblings it is!

I had to do so much research to be able to answer this question.

Anyways. Obviously he gets inserted into the place of Gabo/Ruff, as I assume you were thinking of/hoping for with this ask. This, awkwardly, somewhat sidelines that entire B-plot, because Dusk is fairly comfortable in either shape and isn’t really looking for a fix, per se.

He also ends up assuming the Team Brother position, entirely on accident, but he’s really good at it so he never quite manages to shake the title. He’s willing to follow the Hero for a vast majority of the adventure… until they face off against Orgodemir.

“Hmm,” Dusk says thoughtfully. “Time to add another god to the list of things I’ve stabbed, I guess.”

“What do you mean ANOTHER GOD,” the entire rest of the party shrieks.

“Don’t worry about it,” Dusk says, and then proceeds to absolutely no-sell the giant-worm-centipede-alien-thing with a Mortal Draw.

It’s not like Orgodemir was expecting it, after all.

Hmm.

More Wolf stuff, because I think it’s neat. A fully-fledged Twilight Realm that we get to explore, yes please. Potentially even a Link-Between-Worlds/to-the-Past style plot line where we swap back and forth between the two worlds and build on that two sides of the same coin concept some more. Midna of course reprises her role as Travel Companion, although potentially not in person all the time? She’s a bit less portable now that she’s six feet tall, so maybe something along the lines of the Pirate Charm from WW.

Honestly I think I would be willing to commit a minor felony for the opportunity to explore the Twilight Realm as the default overworld. Can you imagine.

Yes.

The level is Yes. There is no “mitigation” or “level-headed approach” in this situation. Oni has free agency for the first time in several millennia and he is going to use it.

I understand your point, absolutely. The part I have a problem with is when Nintendo said that AoC was supposed to be a canon prequel to BotW.

And this works, up to a point. But then it falls apart so impressively that no amount of tape could stick it back together again - you have the BotW descendants, who remember losing the Champions, coming back and preventing the Champions’ deaths, which thereby immediately removes the reason for them to have come back, which introduces a paradox of the mind-bending bootstrap variety, and then it just keeps going from there.

If we want BotW to proceed the way we played it, then AoC cannot exist as it does. And if we want AoC to be completely canon, then BotW cannot be its direct canonical sequel. Something has to give, here.

I accept AoC wholeheartedly, in every respect except being a canonical prequel to BotW. Because… it’s not. Basically, moral of the story, if AoI does the same thing then I shall slot it in next to AoC as ‘Fun game, but not a canon prequel.’

The Links in the band are Gen, Mask, Ocarina, Dusk, Steam, Lore, and Wind. They never quite hit it big-time, but they do fairly well for themselves. Wind is their songwriter, Dusk is their vocalist, and everyone else is on instrumentals.

Probably not. I dislike Link’s Crossbow Training on principle since it is not the Twilight Princess sequel that it started as and could have been.

Now, I’m absolutely going to use that fact that Dusk can both use and is proficient with a crossbow, but I don’t think I’ll be giving him one as part of his own arsenal. Personal preference.

“Man, I should have thought of that,” Shadow says, watching his cartoon-self approvingly.

“This was a mistake,” Ocarina decides.

On the other hand, Shadow does not believe he’d be taken out by Ruto like that. He’s a free shapeshifter, drowning would be disgraceful.

(He’s getting married over his own dead body, and joke’s on the world because he doesn’t leave behind a body if he dies.)
