i wrote a lot, then after i posted the review, it cut off, so i'm trying a repost >_>
_____Compliments to the chef! what a tastey fic you've developed here. i'm so delighted yet also sad that i've only discovered it now. reading it all in one go was like reading a novel, but not getting the final chapter is like those movie sites that make you wait 3 hours for the end X-[
_____Retrospectively Malon comes off as a bit of a slut :S Many farm boys, a farmhand's daughter, Link and his darker side, and Shiek, quite a tally on her bedpost! I'm glad you didn't include a scene between Link and Saria. It seemed a bit of a stretch having her pass puberty, and i detected a bit of a discrepancy in her understanding of sex, between "a link to the past" parts 1 and 2.
_____I take it that you'll be allowing dark link to live on, as you didn't have him vaporize in the same way Ganondorf's shadow did in the earlier parts of the story. Oh noes did I spoil it? regardless of any plot holes or things i didn't like, you're a much better writer than I am, so enough of minor ranting, on to the raving!
_____I've really enjoyed the way your description of Shiek justifies physical attraction to her, as well as the alternate costume designs. They all capture the "Shiek style." I also enjoyed seeign dark link as more than just a shadowed figure, but a real being, with a nice twisted and perverted mindset that fits nicely for an only half-evil character. Its fun to work with undeveloped characters, gives lots of wiggle room.
_____Every fight scene has been marvelous, but sometimes i think they're a little hollywood. that is, one person takes way too much of a beating to realistically live, but still manages to come back fighting strong, but thats done in every media form so its almost unavoidable. Really it prevents fights from being *dodge, block, dodge, dodge, block, jump, narrowly-evade, hit boom you're dead*
_____I'm also glad you paired zelda and ganondorf together. Its not agreeable with a lot of people, but honestly, lets face it: Anyone else would do the same thing if they were ganon. For a moment i thought you were going to be insanely realistic and have him release inside, as it wouldn't matter if he was just going to kill her later. sigh of relief.
_____getting closer to the most recent chapter:
honestly, i chuckled when i read about the master sword formalities. it came off comical, which was a good thing. the way things left off at the end of the fight, i'm expecting a miracle if link is to live through it. miracle endings are a bit overdone imo, but they make for better fight scenes preceding them. its either that or death :| either way, sometimes sacrifices must be made (interpret as you see fit X] )
_____ok retrospectively this review had no actual order to it. sue me D:
i'm a pathetic excuse for a loz fan, i've only played the oracle games for gbc, twighlight princess on wii, and the original game remade for gba, but reading this inspired me to go buy oot and finally experience what everyone else did years ago. don't judge me :< (reviews are where we judge you not the other way around ;D

Wow. I missed SO much since the last time! I see that you decided to put a slight twist and have Zelda and Shiek as 2 different people instead. That sure complicates things! I'm a big Zelink fan, but I guess it's too late to voice my opinion on what you'll do about that dilemma. :P
And Link is in trouble it seems. Hope he gets help somehow, I'm sure Zelda knows some kinda magic. Well, thanx for updating regularly. I enjoyed all that happened, except D.Link dying and ESPECIALLY the Zelda/Ganondorf smex! Ew. Lol sorry I just don't think he's very attractive and well, like I stated before I'm all about Zelink. Update soon, and hopefully the end pairing will be my preferred. Hopefully.

Great work as usual, I love it.

Maybe it's because I haven't read enough fanfiction, but I think this may be the first time I've seen Link paired with a FEMALE Sheik. And I really like it.

Also, although it's been awhile, thank you for your review.

Anyway, can't wait to see how it all turns out.

Hey Eli, this is GigasMoose leaving another review. I must say, the amount of plot direction and story packed into this fic is probably the best and most creative I've ever seen. I can't wait to see how the story turns out in the end. Don't stop updating man!

I love the story and I keep checking every week to see if you have updated. Zelda puts a whole to spin on Arguing with yourself and Losing. But you know, well she is a blonde(JKJK). RIP Dark Link We will miss you T-T

Just to let you know that i love this story. Although, i personally think the pairing should be Link/Sheik, not Zelda.

(continued from my above post) Especially after everything they've been through together. Zelda and Link barely know each other now. Also, if it does end as Link/Zelda, how will poor Sheik feel, after all she's gone through, I mean, her sole reason for being initially was to protect Zelda, then the pressure of hiding in Ganon's ranks, plus having to lie to the one she loves. She had to make the hard desicions, do all the hard work. She truly loves Link, unlike (from what i can tell) Zelda. If he does choose Zelda, poor Sheik will have lost everything, her body, her love and the one good thing in her life. Even the Sheikah race is in extreme danger of extinction. I personally think you should split Zelda and Sheik into 2 people, then have Link and Sheik have a happy ending.

Still its a great story either way. I'm glad you gave Malon and Dark Link a happy ending, so please don't kill him. Oh and sorry about the double post, you know how computers can be.

Wow... well, I can say that I am pleasantly surprised by this fic... though I must say I am mildly disappointed that you'd do the Ganon/Zelda pairing and not the Saria/Link one. Meh. By-the-by, the lack of the Zelda/Link pairing will be a big misstep if you don't include it--only fair the Triforce is completely merged...

I enjoyed this story as it has been a long while since I've played the game and it is nice to come back and see things in a different light. It is indeed well thought out and I would like to see this finished.
