Vol 3, Ch 1: English Translation for the Adventure of Link by Ran Maru

Sorry for the image quality: These were never released in book form because the publisher went out of business right after this story finished. They are only found in 7 issues of a very rare magazine from 1988 (that I'm currently trying to collect with the incredible help of Ikhana. 2 out of 7 obtained.) The only reason we have images online is because a Japanese fan named Kannon scanned some Xeroxed copies he had.


English translation by Kaialone, follow them on twitter, for History of Hyrule

<<--last chapter (AoL volume 2 chapter 6) | (AoL volume 3 chapter 2) next chapter -->>

Translator's Note:

Since the rest of this story was never officially released in a collected third volume, the last chapters are only available as scans from the original magazines.

As a result, the structure of these following chapters will be slightly different from the previous ones, and the page numbers will correspond to the page numbers of the respective magazine issues.
