Link must be down right terrifying for normal people in Hyrule to encounter.
He’s like a fucking heroic cryptid.
Just imagine it, your village/region/kingdom is under attack by some monster or another and out of the trees this slender little twunk appears and immediately starts acting like he’s gonna help.
And you’re skeptical of course cause look at him.
And then you find out that he’s basically a one man army who just fuckin wrecks the dragon/god/monsters/etc terrorizing your place before he breaks all of the pots in town and disappears again.
Shit must be wild.
considering he likely doesnt brush his teeth, the most wild thing would be his breath. the breath of the wild you could say
