Chapter Text
As the title suggests, this is a chapter about one of my beta readers venting about their hatred of the big bad of Part 3.
ClaireTheBlade, a good friend of mine and my main consultant on Zelda-related things, scared the living crap out of me when she started yelling about pulling up to Hyrule and ankle-biting Lucius in the middle of my relatively peaceful day.
Now if you don’t know who Lucius is, he’s the main antagonist of Outsiders, which is the third part of PoF. He’s one of the princes of Hytopia, a distant land known for its powerful and intricate trade connections to other nations. There’s more detail on him in “Prisoners of Fate”, but I can at least show you the concept art for him here:

Quite the punchable face, eh? [And a twink, according to CTB.] Well, CTB definitely thought so and decided to express her violent urges towards him… in drawing.

As she was ranting about how she’ll break his acrylics, rip out his soul, and fight him on sight, I had the funny idea of putting the two together in this iconic meme:

CTB, however, had other bigger, badder plans… And came up with these masterpieces:

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!! (https://www.youtube.com/shorts/QsMiapN1ZG4)
Needless to say that if CTB gets stuck in Hyrule (again), Lucius better sleep with one eye open. o.o
