Link from the Legend of Zelda: Shattered Prophecy, an AU

LORE (CW/Death)

Growing up among the Kokiri tribe in the Lost Woods, Link became an exceptional hunter even among his fellow tribesmen. He prides himself on his camouflage and ability to virtually disappear as long as there's a plant nearby.

Following the disappearance of Zelda, the Princess of Light, a large portion of Ganon's forces led by Gohma laid waste to the Lost Woods, killing Kokiri, spirit, and skullkid alike until they reached the Deku Tree. Link, incapacitated, was forced to watch as Gohma ate through the Deku Tree until he reached the Kokiri Emerald, a mystical berry that the Hero of Time is born from when it comes time for the prophecy of Light, Time, and Evil to come once again. Upon reaching the Emerald, Gohma crushed it, killing the only person capable of wielding the Master Sword for this generation.

The last thing Link remembered before waking up in a wagon occupied by the Sheikah woman Impa was an axe swinging down onto his head. Unaware of how he survived, but more than glad he did, Link joins Impa and the Hylian Army to fight back against Ganon, unknowingly holding a power that could save the kingdom, or bring it to ruin.

This AU is kinda like Absolute Zelda

No sword.

No princess.

Absolute revenge.

I always heard these three lines in sequence, the "then" being a "than," so it sounds like they're all on the same topic of nothing working for more than a couple months. Is that not the correct interpretation?

"And there's never any fix that sticks for more than a couple days or weeks or months, before we're back here storming out and slamming doors..."
