Bookmarker's Notes
One of my favorite aspects of Silksong is the way the history of the Citadel is narrated through various scraps of text left behind in the form of Psalm Cylinders, Choral Commandments, and other objects discovered on fallen husks. In an absolutely pitch-perfect writing style that could have been lifted from the game's own files, this story conveys the tragedy of the Citadel's downfall in the form of a loosely connected series of fragments. Impeccably crafted and deeply chilling.

Bookmarker's Notes
A lovely and well-observed vignette that artistically captures everything I love about the character relationships in Final Fantasy XII; namely, a subtle tenderness that reveals itself in small moments. This is a masterful piece of writing that reveals in miniature what the game itself suggests through broad strokes.

Penelo can't see anyone in trouble without concern, even when she's somewhere she hadn't planned to be. That floating magicite mine was alarmingly equipped with holes and trip hazards. She's lucky she wasn't worse injured.

A small but thrilling adventure that transports the reader to the beautiful sun-drenched shores of the Phon Coast. Oh to be a beachcomber in a land where treasure could just as easily fall from the sky as be washed in from the sea…!

An eerily beautiful and evocative illustration of one of the most intriguing characters in the Zelda series. The artist has paid an incredible tribute to the complicated themes of this character through visual symbolism that's marvelous to behold.

Summary
Perhaps this was a good sign. A step in the right direction and away from his downwards spiral of uuuggghhhh. Because the way Mettaton saw it, he now had one of two options.
One: retreat to the lukewarm comforts of a lumpy couch until he became one with the cushions and waited until the inevitable heat death of the universe collapsed onto him to finally end the soul-crushing boredom.
Or two: watch whatever the hell was on his newly acquired TV.
Alone and bored to death, Mettaton looks for a way to pass the time while the Internet is down. Good news, he does. Bad news... uh, it’s totally normal to want to kiss your recently acquired TV, right? (asking for a friend, haha...)

A sharp and heartbreaking account of the Gerudo Sage of Lightning. The writing is politically astute and achieves a depth of characterization that I dearly wish had been in the game itself.

Summary
Ashe shook her head. “I-I don’t understand. What is it you gain from this? You dared to defy your makers, did you not? This I know to be true; you admitted it yourself. So why care about those beneath you?”
Ultima cocked her head and smirked. A sound gushed free. It reverberated in the Great Crystal, in Ashe’s bones—bleeding between angelic amusement and discordant dread. Once that chuckle ended, Ultima’s whisper boomed in Ashe’s ears.
There was a time when I was much like you.
Ashe finds more than another ally in the Great Crystal; she discovers a kindred soul.

Summary
Hyrule once flourished. A deceptive truth, yes, but a truth, nonetheless. People have adapted to the malice consuming the world; it was either that or succumb to a fate worse than death.
For all the dread and hopelessness, there is something to be said of perseverance. Buildings crumble, crops wilt, and lives fade, but nature persists. Slowly, yet profoundly. And while Hylians have adjusted within a century, magnificent creatures whispered in myths have surpassed a thousand lifetimes.
Against all the hardships, the creatures of Hyrule live on.

Summary
The Princess asked me to compile a record of the restoration of Hyrule following the Great Calamity.
Imagine that! The actual Princess of Hyrule defeated the Calamity and assumed her throne again, and the first thing she does after that is seek out little ol’ me!
… Okay, I think she was really in Gerudo Town to talk to the Chief about some alliance, but still! She knew who I was and she knew about the work I do. She even said she’d grant me an exclusive interview! And to be honest, I’ve been kind of curious myself. Life after the Calamity… There’s a lot of talk about it in the stables. I’ll do my very best to create a proper record!
Written for the Hyrule Apocrypha zine.
