Characters: starring Purah, with mentions of Symin, Robbie, Impa, and others
Length: 1,010 words
Summary: "A glimpse into the life and mind of Purah—mechanic, survivor of apocalypse, keeper of hope's flame—during the one-hundred years prior to Link's awakening in the Shrine of Resurrection."
Excerpt: "Eighty-one years is far too long to feed on nothing but scavenged hope. She’s going to sink her teeth into everything this broken, beautiful world can offer."
Recommendation: From three flashes of Purah's life leading up to the start of Breath of the Wild, this character study delivers a rich, nuanced reading of her motivations, with emphasis on her as a mechanic and as someone who shouldered guilt beyond her due. It touches on bittersweet and fierce second chances, grabbing at life, and the value of living compared to being alive. It brought tears to my eyes and made itself my Purah headcanon.
