You stroll through your small, cluttered room, kicking aside a pile of books on your way to the bed. Life outside the pages of the novels you devour feels bland, colorless. You collapse onto your bed with a sigh, clutching the latest book in your hands. It's another volume of "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time." As you turn the pages, the worlds of Hyrule come alive—a stark contrast to your mundane surroundings.
"Why can't life be as adventurous as in the books?" you murmur to the ceiling.
As if in response, a sudden gust of wind flips through the pages, faster than humanly possible. You squint at the words as they begin to glow, threads of light weaving between the letters. Filled with a strange compulsion, you read aloud:
"O great Hylian hero, cross the veil, let the worlds merge, our destinies meld."
The room around you shifts, the walls dissolving into a swirling vortex of vibrant energy. You feel a pulling sensation, tugging you into the book. Panic surges within you, but it's too late to fight it. Colors blur, and the ground beneath your feet vanishes. You float in an intangible void, a sense of weightlessness overtaking you. Suddenly, the sensation of solid ground returns, and you find yourself standing in a vast field, the grass swaying under the gentle touch of the wind.
"This isn't possible…," you whisper to yourself, gazing at the familiar landscape of Hyrule Field.
But the changes have only begun. You feel a strange warmth enveloping you, seeping into your bones. Your height begins to change, you grow taller, and your body feels differently proportioned. Emotions that aren't yours start to pulse through you—courage, determination, a sense of duty.
"No… I need to remember," you struggle internally, your memories beginning to blur.
Your long hair shortens, becoming a mess of blonde locks. Your reflection in a nearby pond shows a slim, athletic boy around seventeen years old, with bright blue eyes and pointed elf-like ears. Your thoughts become clouded by a surge of unfamiliar experiences: journeys, battles, and victories. Despite your efforts, your past life as an average human reader fades more quickly than you can grasp at it.
"Remember… who… I…," you stammer, gripping your temples in a desperate attempt to hold onto your previous identity.
But the memories of Link overwhelm you, a flood that you can’t hold back. Visions of Saria, Zelda, and Ganondorf consume your mind, replacing your own recollections. You feel the weight of duty pressing down on your shoulders.
"Link, fulfill your destiny," an unfamiliar voice echoes in your mind—was it Zelda's?
Your resistance wanes. The transformation into the legendary Hylian hero is almost complete. You feel the sheath of the Master Sword at your back, the comforting weight of the Hylian Shield in your hand, and the gentle sway of your green tunic over your white undersuit.
"Alright, let's go. Hyrule needs me," you declare—you fully accept this new reality, completely forgetting your past life. Your voice is now undeniably Link's, filled with unwavering resolve.
With Epona summoned by a quick tune from the Ocarina of Time, you mount her with practiced ease and ride toward the horizon, ready to face whatever challenges await. Saria's Song echoes in your mind, a guiding tune as you head toward your next adventure.
Home holds a new meaning now—it's the dungeons you're destined to conquer, the people you are sworn to protect. The legend of Hyrule continues, and you, Link, are its chosen hero.

Prompt: Write the POV transformation story of a average human reader turning into adult Link from The Legend of Zelda game franchise (more specifically, from the Ocarina of Time game series), complete with gender change (if the reader is a female), height change, age change, reality change (the reader's real world becoming the world of The Legend of Zelda), and mind/mental change (with the reader's personality and memories being completely replaced with Link's personality and memories, despite the reader's best efforts, making him forget that he was ever a mundane human living in a mundane life and only remembered being the heroic hylian named Link). The transformation is permanent (meaning it is forever) and is completely irreversible. For Link's appearance (after the reader turned into him), he is a slim, yet athletic 17 year old hylian who is 5'7" (170 centimeters) tall and has a weighs 69 kilograms (152 lbs). He is a young man with blonde hair, long and pointy elf-like ears (like all hylians), a handsome face without facial hair on the lower half of his face (no beard, mustache, sideburns, etc), slanted eyebrows (which makes him look like he's angry despite not actually being angry), and bright blue irises in his eyes. His clothing consists of a green tunic (which reaches his mid-thighs), he also has a white undersuit under the green Hero's tunic, a brown leather belt is located all around his waists, a brown leather sash is located across his torso, he also has brown fingerless gloves/gauntlets on his hands, he also has brown knee-high leather boots built for combat and distant travels, he also has blue circular earrings on his ears, and he also has a green cap on his head. He carries a master sword and shield. Here are Link's powers, abilities, weapons, and equipment; Great Strategist (he can adapt to nearly any foe and he always manages to find out the enemy's weaknesses), Time and Weather Manipulation (With the Ocarina of Time, Link can instantly manipulate the weather or time itself for his own sake), Expert Horseback Rider (Link has easily ridden his horse Epona around the fields of Hyrule without much trouble. With Epona, Link's travel speed is increased and can get around large fences), Jump Attack (Link jumps forward and strikes downward with his sword), Jump Strike (Link charges energy within the Master Sword, following with a two-hit combo that starts with a left swipe into the air and one strike downward, which creates an area-of-effect that damages and knocks back any nearby enemies. This is better used when surrounded), Spin Attack (Energy is stored within the Master Sword, of which Link releases by spinning around and attacking from every direction), Great Spin Attack (Even more energy is put into the blade, which takes some time to charge, before releasing a stronger form of the move that has more range and more power), Great Spin (A completely separate move, it allows Link to instantly perform a more powerful Spin Attack instantly if he has full health), Ending Blow (Link will finish off an enemy when they're lying on the ground, in which he jump and stabs them in the chest area), Shield Attack (Link can punt his shield forward, either to stun enemies or to deflect physical projectiles), Back Slice (Link hops and rolls behind his opponent, jumping into a vertical slicing motion, usually attacking from the back area), Helm Splitter (If an enemy is stunned with the Shield Attack, Link can jump forward and flip midair, slicing the opponent from the scalp), Mortal Draw (A dangerous move, Link will stand unarmed and not targeting an enemy. If one draws near, Link can instantly draw his blade and kill the enemy in one strike. It is highly risky due to the lack of defenses), Din's Fire (A powerful magical spell, Link must perform a special pose before unleashing a powerful wave of fire that engulfs surrounding enemies in flames), Farore's Wind (When Link performs a special pose, he will be able to set a point that he could use for fast travel. If he does it again, he could travel to said point or create a new one), Nayru's Love (When Link performs a special pose, a magical crystalline barrier will surround Link. For a brief period of time, Link will be completely invincible. However, he can still be knocked back by a heavy blow and is unable to use magical items while in use), Master Sword (Once known as The Goddess Sword which was purified and tempered by three sacred flames which was then blessed by Zelda, the mortal incarnation of the Goddess Hylia. It is a holy weapon that is designed to be the blade of evil's bane. It has the power to vanquish evil due to the fact it's a weapon with Holy/Radiant properties, its base form is the Master Sword itself which dose twice as much damage as the Fighter's Sword, it's 2nd form being the Tempered Sword (three times as powerful) and it's 3rd form being the Golden Sword (four times as powerful). It has the soul of Fit as she is part of the Master Sword itself as the blade will choose it's wielder, be it the Hero of Time and/or otherwise. It can shoot Beams of Light from simply swinging the blade. It has been downgraded at one point to another if left long enough on it's pedestal of time. The Master Sword could be able to magically adapt to the size of its user. The Master Sword once had an age restriction to it's user as shown Ocarina of Time until it later lost said restriction. The Master Sword has the innate ability to break through the opponent's guard maneuver. The Master Sword inherits the Goddess Sword's ability to unleash Skyward Strikes. The Master Sword also plays a key role in sealing Ganondorf and his magic as he mentioned in The Wind Waker, for removing The Master Sword will ultimately break that seal.), Biggoron's Sword (A two-handed sword forged by the swordsmith Biggoron. While it deals twice the damage as the Master Sword, it can't be used with a shield due to its size), Hylian Shield (Link's main defense tool, the Hylian Shield is made of wood and metal, and can defend against most enemy attacks, along with deflecting projectiles), Mirror Shield (Link's second shield. While it no longer deflects projectiles, it can reflect beams of light for various purposes and absorb fire and ice attacks. When it absorbs three of either flames or ice, it will fire the element out as a blast, losing the stored power in the process), Fairy Bow (Link's main projectile weapon during his adult adventures. The arrows can both pierce through foes and hit objects for puzzle-solving. The bow can also shoot three other kinds of arrows alongside the normal ones: Fire Arrows, Ice Arrows, and Light Arrows), Fire Arrows (These arrows are comprised of nothing but fire at the tip. These use up a bit of magic, but do damage by greatly hurting those with a weakness to fire and can melt big blocks of ice), Ice Arrows (These arrows are comprised of magical ice enhancements at the tip. It uses a bit of magic, but can freeze enemies and cool down fire), Light Arrows: These arrows are comprised of the power of light.

Link can carry up to thirty of them at a time), Bombchus (Mice-shaped bombs that, when placed on a flat surface, travel across it before exploding after a couple seconds, or when they hit something. They are also capable of moving up walls) Bottle (A simple glass bottle, Link has numerous of these among his items and can store many things including bugs, potions, and water. It also holds some odd property that allows it to reflect magical attacks), Golden Gauntlets (Gauntlets that greatly boost Link's lifting strength, to the point where he can lift and throw colossal pillars of granite), Megaton Hammer (A large steel hammer that was used by a Goron hero to slay the dragon Volvagia. While Link sacrifices use of his shield while using it due to its weight, the hammer is powerful enough to shatter boulders and cause small-scale shockwaves), Hookshot / Longshot: A contraption made to reach long distances. It shoots out a hook that will latch onto specific surfaces that allows Link to reach, by himself, unavailable locations. The hook when shot can also temporarily stun enemies. The Longshot holds the same functions, but has nearly double the original reach), Hover Boots: When these boots are equipped, these give Link a brief amount of time to walk on thin air or water and has the ability to never sink in quicksand as long as he has these on. However, the boots do not give Link any traction), Iron Boots (When these boots are equipped, its heavy weight will heavily weigh Link down. With them equipped, he can sink down to the bottom of the likes of lakebed and can resist powerful winds. The only downside is that while wearing them, Link has limited and slowed movement due to its heavy weight put down upon him), Lens of Truth: This magical lens was created by the Sheikah with the ability to see the unseen to the naked eye and illusions while in use. However, it will slowly drain Link's magic usage while it is in use) Ocarina of Time (Originally obtained at a pond as his younger self, Link can use this ocarina to sing songs, of which can manipulate the world around him and summon objects), Zelda's Lullaby (Used to open specific paths laid out throughout Hyrule), Epona's Song (Used to call Epona as long as she is able to get to Link), Saria's Song (Used to communicate with Link's childhood friend and Sage, Saria), Song of Storms (Used to summon instant rainfall), Sun's Song (Allows Link to change the time from day to night or vice versa), Song of Time (Was used to rid of specific obstacles and open the Door of Time, but has proven to also make Link able to reverse and manipulate time itself), Tunics (Link must obtain three tunics in all for his quest to obtain the six Sages. There are three tunics in all, and they are simply the clothes Link are wearing, which may have their own special attributes. Link's default tunic is his Kokiri Tunic, which does not have any special attributes), Goron Tunic (A heat-resistant tunic that lets Link survive in extremely hot areas, such as a volcano, without trouble. It also provides slight protection against fire attacks), Zora Tunic (A tunic that lets Link breathe underwater perpetually without oxygen), and Triforce of Courage (1/3rd of the Triforce, created by the Golden Goddess of Courage; Farore. This sacred treasure was blessed to Link). Link has many feats; Can push large blocks made out of stone, Golden Gauntlets have been stated to “move mountains”, Link’s bombs can break large rocks, With the Golden Gauntlets, has lifted a large pillar of black stone; presumably made out of granite, Fights on par with his doppelganger (Dark Link), More than capable of dodging shots from his own Bow and Arrow, Reacts to lightning strikes from above, Has supersonic arrows, Fights evenly with evasive enemies (like Stalfos, Lizalfos, and Phantom Ganon), Survives point-blank explosions, Can survive being shocked by an electric enemy or by a magical attack from (Phantom) Ganondorf, Survives attacks from Iron Knuckle (who can destroy pillars in one swing), Can endure Ganondorf’s magical attacks, which can levitate castles, Has gone through Ganondorf's Dark Wave attack (albeit via Triforce of Courage), Has solved countless puzzles using a variety of items or by himself, Defeated all of the five bosses that prevented the Sages from awakening (Phantom Ganon, Volvagia, Morpha, Bongo Bongo, and Twinrova), Easily mastered any new item he gained on his quest, and Taught the Hero of Twilight all of the skills he was unable to teach to further descendants. However, he has few downsides; Limited Magic Use (Link can only use a finite amount of magical items at a time, which use up his Magic Meter. If it runs out, Link cannot use any magical items. However, he can restore it with a special item such as a potion), and if Link is ever allowed to be sucked in and engulfed by a Like Like for any reason, he will lose his Hylian Shield. Here is Link's personality; In spite of his troubled childhood, Link was a courageous and noble individual who never hesitated to help others, no matter how difficult it was. There should be quotes from the characters (including but not limited to the reader) in this story so we know what they're saying and what they're thinking. Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the reader (you, your, etc).
