Tatiana and Quinn, such a perfect couple. High school sweethearts married nearly 5 years now. Quinn works as an engineer, making enough money to provide for Tatiana, to spoil her, to make sure she has all she wants or needs for the rest of lives. To their friends, Tatiana has all she could ever ask for. Quinn loves her more than she loved anything else, it was so clear. Such a picture-perfect couple, right? Ever wonder what goes on behind closed doors? Perfect couple, perfect life, living their dream, hm? What about the secrets? The lies, the manipulation, the fear. The memories, the flashbacks, the danger. What happens when it's too much? What could possibly change? Who was she to try to change anything? Tatiana has to make a choice. A choice that will affect her forever, no matter what it is. Could this be a lose-lose? Could this be a mistake? Will she choose wrong and lose it all? Imagine what everyone will think. However, what will they say when they see what truly goes on Beneath the Crimson Petals?

For generations, Hyrule has known peace. Then, a hooded stranger enters the kingdom's greatest tournament, and an ancient darkness begins to stir. As sacred temples fall and the Guardian Spirits are silenced, eighteen-year-old Link is torn from the life he knew and thrust into a war against Garoth, the merciless Emissary of Darkness. With Hyrule's roads overrun by monsters and Princess Zelda imprisoned within her own castle, he must journey across a dying kingdom, recover weapons forged against evil, and prove himself worthy of the legendary blade hidden within the Sacred Grove. Yet Link will not face the darkness alone. While his companions fight beside him and Zelda wages her own battle for freedom, every victory carries them closer to the terrible purpose behind Garoth's rise-and the ancient power he intends to awaken. The age of peace is over. The Age of Darkness has begun.
