Oh, a few provisos to the preceding scene. I've had the niggling desire to set the record straight about this stuff for awhile, so I suppose the fanfic gave me an opening.
1. The idea that Malon is based on Marin from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening is merely a fan theory held by some that I'd picked up online.
2. I've never beaten LA, much less met Marin, so I wouldn't know.
3. The "prior game marriage" thing was a mistake on my part based on circumstantial and extremely flimsy research into the subject material.
4. I still think that the OOT fiver doesn't reflect my best work. Yes, I'm still beating that dead horse.
5. At the time, OOT (as far as I know) was supposed to be the first game chronologically. Now that it's ten years later, the chronology (official or not) seems to put other games before OOT. The Minish Cap, in particular.
