Your gateway to endless inspiration
I guess this could also be called.. “From one place to another, a postman’s job is never complete” as the actual title of it.

"Here, can you please deliver this message to Link?" The young princess (or not princess- this is before that time) asked.
"Of course, you can count on me."
"Here, a letter to my grandson, Link." The old smith handed him a carefully wrapped letter.
The postman tucked it carefully into his bag.
"Oh- and before you go. Take this. You might be safer."
He handed him a knife of sharpened metal, clearly well made.
The postman blinked at the large box the women who lived on the ranch gave him.
"Give this to Link please, oh! and before I forget- Here. Take this for all of your hard work."
The postman smiled at the gift.
"Hey- you! I am in need of your assistance!" A voice called out to the postman.
The postman turned his head, being greeted with a hylian dressed in a purple bunny suit.
"First of all- I have a letter to Mr Sir Hero, or also goes by Link. Secondly, will you care for some of my wares?"
Needless to say, the postman did not buy a single thing- He was far too broke already.
"Here, could you give this to Link, my friend?" A raspy voice asked.
The postman nodded, taking the letter given to him. The old man smiled gently at him.
"Thank you." he whispered.
"Hey, I was told you can bring letters to Link while he's on his adventure with his extended family! Could you bring ours?"
Children crowded around him, holding aloft letters to him.
"Yeah- I can."
The postman blinked at his predicament.
A huge stack of letters sat beside him, and a bowl of soup sat in front of him.
"Eat more dear, you must be famished from your adventure!" the old lady poured him some water.
The girl only added more letters to the pile.
"Please, take this letter to General Link, or just Link. He is currently on an adventure. I've been told you can deliver this to him?"
The postman nodded, taking the letter from the queen.
The queen smiled, her armor clanking as she strolled away.
"Let me guess- a letter to Link?"
"You know it! Wait- how did you know that?"
The postman smiled at the beetle backpack merchant.
"I have a keen sort of eye, one could say."
"Here, I have letters for Link, Link, Link, Mr Hero Sir or Link, Link, Link, Link, General Link and Link."
"Mr hero sir?" muttered the one with the blue scarf.
"Don't ask about it, 'General Link'."
"Jeez- touchy much?"
"Here- payment for all of your hard work."
A mailman's job is never over. I will continue to bring letters no matter what.
He shivered at the cold breeze that swept through the mountains.
Finding the house, he walked up and knocked.
There was some rustling, but soon a middle-aged man appeared, peering at the postman carefully.
"And to whom shall I grant the pleasure to?"
"I have a letter for someone who lives here. Who goes by the name of... Link?"
"That would be me."
EXTRA BONUS
"Hello! I have some boxes and letters to the Goddess Hylia?"
"Yes- that is me."
"So, all of these boxes and letters are from the nine Links."
"Ah- which letter or box did the one who wears no pants give you?"
"This box right here."
"Okay then- not going to open that. Thank you for all you have done."
"It was my pleasure. After all, that's what we angels do, we live to bring joy and happiness. We live to serve."
He was enveloped with a warm hug.
"You truly work too much."

To be honest, no one knew how it started. It was supposed to be a good game night at Lon Lon ranch.
Malon watched the chaos confusedly, while her father was only making it worse.
See, the chain were all playing a different game. Legend somehow got his checker pieces and was playing with Wild, whom had stored chess pieces in his slate. Both had a layout of cards underneath, all different colors as they played. Wind was looking smug as he hoarded all the tokens in a game from his era called, poker. Time was playing old maid and Hyrule was playing a game called go fish. Twilight was somehow playing catan with Warriors who was doing a game called Sorry. Sky was playing uno and Four argued with himself as he played monopoly. Somehow, they all were sitting in a circle and were calling out things to one another.
"Hey uhh... Guys? What are we playing?" Wind asked, blinking as Hyrule said 'Go fish' and dug through the pile of cards.
"Chutes and Ladders." Talon said with a completely deadpan expression.
"Dad you're not helping!" Malon cried.
"I know."
"Oh! Okay thank you! Wait. Whats Chutes and Ladders?" Wind asked.
"Wait you don't got chutes and ladders in your time? Tragic. Its a great game."
"No they should pay me and then I cam move my car piece over and buy Park Place!" Four muttered, his eyes flashing different colors in the light.
"You okay Four?" Sky asked, looking at Four.
"Yeah, I just. I need more money, and SOMEONE is refusing to pay me." Four glared at Warriors.
Warriors shrugged, bumping Four's car. "Sorry."
Wild cheered. "Checkmate!"
Legend laughed. "Yes, but now..." he paused, waiting for a dramatic effect. "I make this a king! Aha! That is my fourth king!"
Twilight stared at Time in silence as he put down a town on the water's edge.
Time placed down two pairs of cards, the same image reflected.
Hyrule giggled, calling out "Go fish Time!" and Time sighed.
Malon watched as the chaos around her increased in volume.
Suddenly, a knock on the door drew Malon's attention away and she turned. Weaving between the scattered pieces and laid out cards that splattered their living room floor like paint.
"Hello!" Malon greeted as she opened the door, noticing the postman.
"Hello. I have a letter for... uhh... Link?" he asked, waving a letter.
Malon nodded. "I can take that. Thank you very much."
The postman eyed the chaos in the living room curiously. "Whatever is going on in there, it sounds like fun. They playing clue?"
Malon groaned. "Don't you start also... No, I have no clue what is going on."
The postman laughed. "Well, I must go. After all, these letters aren't going to deliver themselves!" He waved and walked off. Malon shut the door with a quiet click just in time to hear her dad call out.
"Yahtzee!"
At the end of the day, no one had any clue what was going on, but they all had fun. Malon smiled seeing all the heroes laughing and joking around.
It must be a nice break from all the stress. Malon smiled warmly at the heroes, young and old. I'm glad that they had fun. They deserve some fun in their life.
