Summary
At the end of Twilight Princess, instead of having Link kill Ganondorf, Zelda decides to marry him. Hyrule is falling apart because the Triforce has been divided for so long, and Zelda's political position is unstable. She sees an opportunity, and she takes it. Ganondorf wants to avenge himself and his people, but he is still recovering from the shock of having returned to Hyrule to find it already in ruins. He needs time to assess the situation, so he accepts Zelda's proposal. Both Zelda and Ganondorf act according to their own interests, but they are not as ill-suited for each other as they assume.

Summary
In an era dominated by advanced technology, Princess Zelda’s distant descendant is hospitalized and medicated to calm her nightmares and banish the voices that speak into her ears. The suppression of powers that should exist only in myth weakens a seal placed on an ancient evil, and one night the young woman answers a knock at her door to find a monster of a man looming across the threshold, naked and wild and dripping with the liquefied malice that has flooded her dreams. The only thing he knows for certain is that his name is Ganondorf, and both he and Zelda want answers.

Summary
After years spent investigating the mysterious shrines and statues of East Necula, Dr. Calip has joined the Zonai Survey Team’s efforts to study the Ring Ruins that fell on Kakariko Village. The ancient structures are fascinating, but what has captured Calip’s attention is the chasm in the forest on the hill. Odd things emerge from the darkness of its gaping mouth… one of which just might be the uncanny apparition that calls itself Princess Zelda.
Thankfully, Calip is not alone in his attempts to understand the mysteries of Hyrule. While Calip has been gazing into the abyss, the leader of the Zonai Survey Team has been gazing at him.
