Summary
Zelda rushed to his rapier by his nightstand. Throwing off its sheath, he pointed the blade at Ghirahim. “Call me princess one more time and I’ll stab you.”
“Brave words for a foolish girl.”
“I’m not a girl!”
“Are you now?” Ghirahim asked. “You expect me to believe Hyrule’s princess is a boy?”
“Yes,” Zelda retorted. He took a step forward, jabbing his rapier at Ghirahim. “Tell me what you’re doing here.”
Ghirahim looked impishly amused by Zelda’s attempt at intimidation. “Wouldn’t you like to know, hm?”
Three generations after the defeat of Calamity Ganon, Hyrule has prospered and returned to its former glory. A new princess has been born, a farm hand has been trained as a knight, and evil brews once again in the desert. It’s a story the kingdom knows well, but the problem is not another repetition of the Triforce cycle.
Zelda is not a princess, and he doesn’t want to kill anyone.
In other words, this is a story about a new generation of heroes dealing with unwanted expectations. They’re learning how to stand up against their parents’ wrongs, forgive the past, and forge new names for themselves.
