Information
Set as a distant prequel to Breath of the Wild, Herald of Calamity explores a Hyrule teetering on the brink of Calamity Ganon's resurrection. As the Calamity's return draws closer, a young man, Link, takes matters into his own hands when it becomes clear that those around him are blind to the looming threat. However - will following in the footsteps of prior heroes be enough to ensure a lasting peace?

Herald of Calamity is a project I started in late 2022. Initially, it was intended to sharpen my quest design skills so I could do justice to a now-abandoned project, The Edge of Hope. Of course, Herald of Calamity grew to take precedence, and it is currently my main focus.
The quest is set in an 8x8 version of Hyrule, but the world is extremely dense with characters, secrets, story, and dungeons. There should be something for everyone here - assuming you’re tenacious. Herald of Calamity is being intentionally designed as a challenging experience, relative to many Zelda titles. Combat will be more involved, progression will be harder-earned, and dungeons will be more vast than most series entries.
