* ''Synopsis:'' The Shadow Invasion left wounds across both Hyrule and the Twilight Realm, and neither Zelda nor Midna are eager to face the task of binding them up. Old prejudices and weaknesses are laid bare, and the idea is posed of reuniting the two realms to prosper together. Is their plan a folly born of desperation, or the most revolutionary undertaking either kingdom has seen in centuries?

* Recommended by holyexpletive
* ''Status'': Dormant
* ''Synopsis'': "It starts with vibes, stupid things that annoy more than anything. Then those vibes become visions. Then those visions become memories. Memories of times that never happened. Finally, Midna realizes just how much she hates the heavens. Typical..." An on-going story set during and after Twilight Princess, offering a brilliant explanation of how Link can die so many times during a game and get back up as if nothing ever happened, as well as elaborating on the characters' lives post-Twilight.

* Recommended by Lavanya Six
* ''Status:'' Dormant
* ''Synopsis:'' A few months after the events of ''Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess'', Princess Zelda and Link each struggle with their lives now utterly changed by the fight against Ganon and the Triforce power they now possess. But even with the final death of Ganon, the Goddesses have plans...

''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3366412/1/The-Hero-of-Wolves The Hero of Wolves]]'' by The Wolfess
* ''Recommended by:'' Troper/{{Kiereth}}
* ''Status:'' Completed
* ''Synopsis:'' After the Twilight War is over, Link heads back to Ordon, intending to live a peaceful life on the ranch. But try as he might he can't outrun his past -- he's changed from a goatherd into a warrior, and what's more, his wolf side still holds sway over his mind. Meanwhile, Zelda is going about restoring her kingdom, and she isn't content to let the Hero of the day fade away into nothingness like all the legends before him.
* ''Comments:'' It's an interesting continuation to the story of ''Twilight Princess'', doing a good job of exploring all the consequences of a single hero saving a fantasy world from an evil it didn't even know was there -- where he now stands in the world, how his journey affected him, how his powers affected him, how the people might react to a "hero", and how -- just like in real life -- when you think you might have things sorted, there's always something left going on... one might describe it as a rare example of a {{Deconstruction}} without anywhere near as much [[DarkerAndEdgier darkness]] as the term usually now connotates.

* Recommended by Cattychan
* ''Status:'' Complete
* ''Summary:'' Oneshot. What if Talo saw Link transport into Kakariko Village?
* ''Synopsis:'' After you complete the second dungeon, a little boy from Ordon Village named Talo can be found on the roof of the building at the northernmost part of Kakariko Village, on the lookout for monsters. It's up REALLY high, so if you go up there, you can see just about EVERYTHING. (In the game itself, if you go there during the day as Wolf Link, Talo will spot and everyone outdoors will scram.) One of the things visible from the lookout post is the black and blue portal in the sky that Link and Midna use to "warp", or teleport. For some reason, none of the [=NPCs=] seem to notice it. In this fanfic, Talo "borrows" the Hawk Eye from Malo's shop, an obtainable item in the game that can be used as a telescope. Through it, he not only gets a good look at the portal, but sees Wolf Link come out of it with Midna, and then sees him transform back into his human form! Uh-oh.

* ''Recommended by:'' TwilihtInsect
* ''Status:'' Complete? (The latest chapter looks like a finale, but it's apparently still going)
** It hasn't been updated since April 2016. Looks like it's gone dormant.
* ''Summary:'' In the bustling town of Castle Town lives a very eccentric young girl. Agitha, the self-proclaimed princess of all bugs, lives a secluded life inside her own fairy tale. Only the bugs of her kingdom to keep her company. But when a very handsome knight dressed in green enters her home, he might be the first actual person to call a friend.
* ''Synopsis:'' A series of one-shots about the young princess we all gave bugs to in ''Twilight Princess''. It's very well written and delves deeply into the characters of the ''Twilight Princess'' setting. There is a light Link X Agitha shipping, but as of right now, it's more of a brotherly/sisterly love then outright romantic.

* ''Status:'' Complete
* ''Summary:'' Perpetual twilight, clandestine malevolence; realms linked by an encroaching darkness. The fate of two worlds hangs in the balance and only a hero can save them. A retelling of ''Twilight Princess''.
* ''Synopsis:'' As the summary says, this is an expanded novelization of ''Twilight Princess''. The first few chapters are prologue, but the rest more or less follows the game's story. A lot of content is added, but as is the mark of a good novelization, most of it feels like it could've been part of the game. The writing is quite good, and it's clear that the author is putting a lot of thought into it.
** Tropers/InnerGlow: There are no words that can describe how awesome this fanfic is. It should be published. She did a fantastic job making it like the game but realistic at the same time. She is currently making the sequel, When Heroes Fall.

* ''Recommended by:'' Cattychan
* ''Status'': Complete
* ''Summary:'' An {{orphan|sOrdeal}}ed [[WildChild boy turned feral]] from the hardship of living on his own. A girl alone in a small close knit village called Ordon in the southern tip of Hyrule's Ordona province. One day something happens that changes everything for her and her entire village.
* ''Synopsis:'' A backstory for Link. Explains why he seems to never have had parents in Ordon, seeing as they're not mentioned or even alluded to in the game. Also reveals why Link is the only Hylian (long-eared type of human) in Ordon Village, while elsewhere in Hyrule (mostly Castle Town, being by far the most populated) the numbers of Hylians and humans is fairly equal.
* ''Pairing:'' Link/Ilia, but mostly as friends, since they're much younger when this story takes place.
* '''Note:''' Grammar and spelling are very, very poor.
