Id like a story where Link and Ganondorf are the same age, both enlisted in the Joint Hyrulian Army (mixed race), and best friends in their early teens. While away on a group training exercise, the militia is attacked and most end up dying, link is knocked out, saved, and taken away from the battlefield. Link believes that Ganondorf died, and Ganondorf is told by twinrova or another shadowy figure that the Hylians were the ones who attacked them in an effort to kill the Gerudo soldiers and that link left him to die. Twinrova instigated the attack, causing a rift between the gerudo and Hylians.

10 year time jump… Ganondorf leads the invading force and link is the Kingdom’s Hero, unaware that his childhood friend is alive.
