lyricaltitlesTitle: 'If I Could Only Reach You'
Author:but_can_i_be_trusted
Fandom: The Legend of Zelda (Spoilers for 'Tears of the Kingdom')
Characters: Princess Zelda
Rating: PG
Warnings: Brief mention of character death
Artist: Gary Puckett & The Union Gap
Album: Greatest Hits
Song: 'Lady Willpower'
Summary: If only Link were here.
If only Link were here.
Zelda wishes that often, now that she's in the Hyrule of the ancient past. Seeing dangers firsthand that she's only studied and read about, and that in scant sources, reminds her of just how much Hyrule needs its hero.
But she's in the past, and Link is in a future that's in peril of never coming to pass.
He'd know how to handle the threats that lie all around. He'd be able to take care of everything.
Her faith is not misplaced; Zelda is certain of that. But they're so far out of each other's reach.
If she could only reach forward through time to then, and pull him back to now. Then Sonia wouldn't have had to die. Other lives would not need to be lost in the coming battle. And Rauru's certain sacrifice would never need to come.
If only Link were here. He could surely save them all.
