* BatmanGambit: Knowing that Link is willing to do absolutely anything to keep Zelda and the surface safe, [[spoiler: she makes him an [[AnOfferYouCantRefuse offer he can't refuse]]: either surrender to her and become her prisoner, or watch as Zelda is killed and the surface is destroyed. Link, not confident that he will be able to stop her if he chooses the former option, goes with the latter and [[ColdBloodedTorture suffers greatly because of it]].]]

* YourDaysAreNumbered: Link goes through the entire plot of ''Blood and Spirit'' knowing that he only has a limited amount of time left to live thanks to the corruption, for which there is no cure. He even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this at one point:
--> '''Link''': We both know that I have so little time left that I'm not even worth trying to save.

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Before Zelda finds out about Link's ongoing corruption in ''Blood and Spirit'', she notices that he is not acting like himself because of it.
