Afterword

After all this time, countless revisions, bouts of writer's block and inspiration, the story is finally done. Believe it or not, this is the first thing I have ever written. You might have differing opinions, but frankly, I surprised myself. I was amazed by the way the story turned out, the immense amount of symbolism I unconsciously put into it. I especially like the motif of rivers, which I only noticed halfway through.

No, I'm not writing a sequel. One, there's nothing to write a sequel about except sentimental crap, and two, that would completely kill the impact of Link's martyrdom.

One final word: When and if you review this, please be vague regarding spoilers. I don't want anyone to accidentally ruin the story for anyone else.

Thanks for reading!

Later note: You know, having written some other stuff, and going back to this story, I kinda scare myself. At one point, I turned Link into a hardcore emo, and wrote one of the most depressing endings ever. I must be reading too much Stephen King or something.
