Pssst, hey, imagine this:
When the hero’s die, instead of moving on their spirits get sucked inside the mastersword, (don’t question how those who don’t use the mastersword get sucked in there) and they’re left to be a guide for the next hero to use them. Fi is there too btw.
Anyways as each person gains the mastersword, they also gain a handful of guides who can either be super helpful or super annoying.
POV Wild:
Legend: well well well! Look who finally decided to pick us up again.
Time: Ledge, don’t be rude, he died. He’s allowed to take a while
Hyrule: im just glad to see him back!
Sky: how are you, Link? Are you well? Are you okay now? That was quite the scare you gave us! How is your face? Do your scars hurt? Can we help?
Wild: Who the fuck are you?????

(5/11/24: edited because I was looking through stuff and realized at some point I'd forgotten to start from 0 when counting the MRUs)
"Emulation is stable. Trinity is online. Drive inserted. Ready to install on your command, sir."
"Proceed."
"Yes director. Uploading mod... now."
"...Upload is progressing smoothly. Time until Activation estimated at 3 minutes."
"Excellent. Hopefully there are no complications."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Great Sky Island
It's a beautiful morning here among the clouds. The Forest Ostriches graze. The Chu Chus slosh along between the trees in search of prey. The temple's bell chimes, prompting the Steward Constructs to resume their work. And far below, the people of Hyrule stir as well, preparing to go about their days.
None of them have any idea of the madness that is to come.
Far above even the highest Sky Island, a mysterious object appears, hurtling down like a meteorite. As it falls it becomes clear that its current path will bring it down directly on top of the Temple of Time.
Soon enough it arrives with a monumental CRASH, yet the Temple remains intact, with the object simply embedding itself into the flat roof. Said object appears to be a silver flash drive, monolithic in scale, with a strange circular symbol painted in orange on the front. A few moments later, a robotic voice calls out.
"Uploading the latest Spicy Memes."
A wave of blue energy pulses out from the drive, traveling across all of Hyrule in seconds, causing anyone it touches to behave strangely and leaving a variety of bizarre people and creatures in its wake. Not done, lighting arcs out from it, causing the temple itself to glow and then emit beams of light in seemingly random directions. Wherever these beams end, a portal is formed, each with a past version of Hyrule on the other side. One bolt of electricity from the drive happens to graze a nearby fairy, causing it to jitter in place and rapidly shift between various colors while spamming Navi voicelines.
Eventually the light show ends, and the drive's front opens to reveal a man with brown hair and eyes who looks otherwise identical to Link (pre-arm loss) wearing an orange version of the Hero of Time Armor Set.
"Hey, what is up every...body?" he looks around, realizing that he's completely alone, "Uh...anybody home?"
As if in answer, the out-of-control fairy careens into his face, still spouting random voicelines. He's initially freaked out, but quickly gets an idea and ducks back into the clearly-bigger-on-the-inside flash drive, coming back with a video camera and a laptop. Within a few minutes he's filmed the fairy and edited the resulting video into a Carameldansen Rave Meme, which he then uploads to the internet (the digital multiverse's internet. much like SMG8 the technological limitations of living in a medieval fantasy setting prevent him from uploading within his actual universe).
Soon after, a flash of light pulses out from the fairy, and their color settles on a deep blue despite the fact that all of the BotW/TotK fairies are supposed to be pale pink. Their flight has calmed down significantly, and they're not saying random voicelines anymore.
They are, however, still talking...sort of, "WwwOOw tHaAAAAaat zuuUc- IIiiII1!iizzzzthhhhaAat7tmeE33ee?"
"...da fuk."
"HhhOoOolLlLlDddDDiIiIiIiiiIIIIti11111igoO0oddafffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffiIigYYyyiuuuooouuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrthIs outwaitokayisthisrightnotoo f a s t a l m ost got it! Okay, testing, testing, do you read me now?" She still sounds synthetic, but at least now she's coherent.
"...Yeah?" 'the fuck just happened?'
"Sweet. Now, my name's Loni. Who the hell are you and what did your weird-ass ship thing do to me?"
"Oh, I'm MRU1, a Meme Regulation Unit! It's my job to keep the universe stable by posting about all the memes my Command Pod uploaded and protecting... the..." He suddenly goes wide-eyed and runs off, "Oh shit I've gotta find my Anchor!"
Unfortunately, there's a certain problem with that, as he realizes when he reaches the edge of the roof, "Uh...that's a pretty long way down."
"Yep."
"...and it's even further to the actual not-flying ground."
"Sure looks like it."
"...is there like a ladder or..."
"LOL no. Sucks to be you dude."
"goddamnit"

The East Hylitic substrate hypothesis is an idea within the field of Hylitics which attempts to explain the supposedly anomalous features of the East Hylitic languages (e.g. Gerudo, Sheikah). Numerous elements common to East Hylitic basic vocabulary and syntax do not have reflexes in the West or Insular Hylitic languages.
The hypothesis was first put forward by the Tolemacian-Gerudo scholar, Tamemt Gubasha. She suggests in her writings that early proto-Hylitic speakers encountered speakers of another, unrelated language upon settling in modern Hyrule and adopted numerous features of their language — i.e., the proto-East-Hylitic language was the result of creolisation between proto-Hylitic and a non-Hylitic language.
