Zelda: A Princess's Enigmatic Majesty by Jade Gretz
Zelda stood alone, the Sheikah Slate clutched in her hand, the only evidence of the spectral encounter. Relief washed over her, but it was tinged with a profound sadness. These pirates, now freed from their spectral torment, were lost souls, victims of their own greed.

Her gaze fell upon the churning surface of the lake, a dark reflection of the storm-wracked sky above. Was this all that awaited those who succumbed to their darker impulses? Was this the fate that awaited even a legendary hero like Link, should he fall in battle?

A shiver ran down her spine, a cold realization settling in her stomach. The battle against Ganon may have been won, but the true war – the one fought within the hearts of men – was far from over. Greed, hatred, and vengeance – these were the true monsters, not spectral pirates haunting haunted lakes.
