Dad Link AU by @dadlink ⭐

Fantasy | Mature | Tumblr | Ongoing

Synopsis: Years after abdicating his position, an adult Link, now a husband and father to a toddler, is caught up in the political turmoil rocking his Hyrule, leading to the disappearance of his wife and the destabilization of the kingdom. Between his rocky relationship with the people of Hyrule, the actions of the now-Queen and former friend Zelda, and a looming civil war, he's caught between his own peace and what he was once honor-bound to uphold.

Content Warnings: Blood, violence/fighting, crude humor

This comic has a vibe and style that grabs attention from the very first panel. Throughout all the updates so far, it paints a world that feels not just lived in, but living. There is clearly a greater event happening just outside of the perspectives we're shown, and I can't wait to watch all the pieces come together! - Nocturne

Very unique story in a Hyrule we’ve never seen before. I love the stylized look of the panels and earthy tones. Link and his child are scouring Hyrule in search of his wife. Meanwhile, she’s doing the same thing and encountering obstacle after obstacle. I look forward to their eventual reunion (hopefully) and to learn more about the strict regime they are living under. - Mistress Lrigtar

This webcomic is still fairly new, but it’s already well worth a look. The art is amazing, and I already adore Link and his wife. The setting is a clearly troubled Hyrule, with the Queen so far appearing to be an antagonist, which I’m eager to find out more about, and I can’t wait to find out what’s next for the little family. - Karama9

Beautiful designs, and a fun story with plenty of mysteries yet to be solved. Link's bond with his wife and son is very sweet, and Zelda is great. - waterglider

A beautiful work with a more grounded setting, this work looks to explore the boundary between myth and reality. Still early into the story, but lots of promise for the inner workings of the politics and legends at play here. Looking forward to more! - amelias-hart
