Summary
Zelda Iseult DeLeon is an adjunct professor of little renown. The wealth of her family is tied up in land no one has any interest in buying, and assorted artifacts of vanished Hylian glory. She cannot support an independent life without working, and she cannot continue working so long as she is afflicted by the ghosts of the past to such powerful degree that the dreams are taking over waking hours as well as her dwindling rest. She is persuaded to hand over her class to her moonlighter for a trimester to focus on her health -- and sanity.
Everyone is confident a winter of retreat and reflection will return her to herself by spring.

Summary
Before they became legends, they were people.
Hyrule is fated to fall. No mortal hand can change what the gods have fated to fade — but Princess Zelda is determined to mitigate harm as much as possible for as many souls as possible. From the day she left Nayru’s Cauldron on her seventeenth birthday a Confirmed Zelda bearing the blessings of the Three, she has labored for years under her own name and a thousand aliases to improve conditions for common folk of Hyrule and her neighbors alike — and lay foundations for a stable, prosperous future without royals steering the ship of state.
Last winter, for the first time since the devastation of the Hylian Civil Wars, the Gerudo sent a delegation to the peace summit. A mysterious thief hidden among the diplomats confronted her then, and for nine months since the young witchking of the golden people has sent letters and gifts and challenges through his network of spies. Now he wants to meet her near the border outside the restrictions of official protocol.
It could be a trap.
It could be the best chance they have for a happier future — for everyone.

Summary
Legends are woven of history and myth, reshaped from the messy complicated nuance of Life into the orderly arcs of Lessons and Warnings and Growth. Legends are everything we wish to become of our unknown future. Legends give us bright paths through the darkness to a happy ending, to hope, to an understanding of the ineffable Patterns and they offer us the why underneath all we have survived.
Love conquers Malice. Good triumphs over Evil. The sun will rise after the longest night.
The dark sorcerer has to die for the heroes to live.
It is simply the way things are.
Pirate Queen Tetra of the Great Sea bows to neither god nor master.

This is @roblaze's fault.

Navigator is still cookin', but this possessed me to write it off and on. This would fit early in Act 3, but spoils nothing. Enjoy.
