The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time novelisation [audiobook] [Understudies needed]
Theearofone for Link [Understudy]
The main POV character from Chapters 19-60 (excluding The Last Sheikah and Lens of Truth).
Scene contexts for auditions:
Scene 1: Link has just woken up after his seven year sleep in the Sacred Realm, and Navi, expecting to discover a 10-year old boy next to her, wakes up in the Sacred Realm is shocked to discover that Link has aged seven years. She isn't the only one who's startled by this change.
Scene 2: Attempting to flee from the ruins of Castletown and find Sheik, Link is attacked by a horde of stalfos intent on killing him.
Scene 3: In the Water Temple, and aided by several Zora (sorry Sidon's not one of them), Link rescues Ruto from Dark Link. He is battered during the confrontation with Dark Link and nearly killed.
Note:Due to the length of this role, it will be split between multiple narrators, one per story arc (with six arcs in total). The 6 story arcs are:
- Waking Up/Kokiri arc
- Goron arc
- Zora/Dark Link arc
- Gerudo arc
- Sheikah/Necromancer arc
- Ending
"L-Link? Is that really you?" Navi asked.
Those words stung, cutting deep into his heart. His own fairy was not even sure who he was.
"It's me, Navi," Link replied, keeping his voice even to hide the hurt at her doubt. "Who else do you know that wears a floppy green hat like this?"
His jest was meant to break the awkward confusion that hung between them. It didn't make him feel any better.
Link turned to deflect another blow, pushing away a sword that went scraping off his shield, barely missing his midriff. He turned to run and yelped when he realized the legless stalfos had him by the ankle. Its white bony hands clawed into his flesh, leaving bloody rivulets. With a yell of pain and a frantic kick, Link shook it off.
He turned and distinctly heard the angry stalfos yell, "Come back here and I'll bite your legs off!"
Then, the Zora cursed as the demon's fingers twitched, mere inches away from its blade. The demon leaped up with frightening speed, flicking one spear aside. Link had seen it twitch before it jumped. He lunged for his sword and slammed it straight into the demon's chest.
Dark Link looked down in surprise at the blade protruding through its heart.
"You were wrong," Link said, struggling to maintain a hold on his sword. "I am the Hero of Time and I can kill you."
Hi there, I'm reorganising this role so people can choose which arcs they want to narrate. Check out the project page and choose which arcs you'd prefer by auditioning for them. Thanks!
the Zora/Dark link an the Geruod Arc seems fascinating to me.
Would you be happy with the Shadow Temple arc? I thought it was the most fun to write, and it's not too long.
the shadow? sure. sounds like it can be a scary narrating. I can try that.
Cool. If you audition for that arc, I'll set you as the cast member. In the meantime I'll message you the link to the script. I'll send it one chapter at a time.
when do you need the first samples? or shall I just audition for it and you decide if its good enough? Shall I do a one take of the script 47 you sent me?
