Summary
Summary change bc this book wasn't meant to be more than a one shot or a forgotten work but I have fifteen chapters written, so ... Oops?
Link returns to Zora's domain after The Awakening. Zelda is gone, disappeared into the dark abyss, and there is a monster that once again, looms over Hyrule, and creates a shadow in Link's soul.
There's a new guest in the domain, and Link is shattered to find out that his lover is entwined in a political engagement to a neighboring kingdom's princess.
Yona was not expecting to see her ... Fiancé's lover. She had managed to forget about that in the same breath that she forgets about her engagement. She misses her girlfriend. She remembers the late nights and the heat of two bodies pressed together, and feels sick knowing that that will be expected of her and Sidon soon.
Sidon feels torn, he wants to do his duty to his kingdom and bring two communities together, but his heart is drawn to the Hero of Hyrule instead. The inhabitants of Zora's Domain are not the most open minded, and what good is a gay king? No heirs, no love.
And Zelda sobs in the sky, wailing into the depths, their mind gone, but the woman in their heart remaining.
