Legend of Arithia

"A story with lots of references to some thing. You should be able to figure out what this 'something' is."

—Rooster Hat providing a summary of his story

Heroic Fantasy
Shout-Out: Arguably the entire reason this story exists. To list a few:
- Phoenix himself. He's a steamboat captain's apprentice, and his last name is Beckett. Hmm...
- The towns (With the exception of Corphus, and of course, Arithia City) are named after minor characters in The Legend of Zelda, such as Gentari (One of the Minish Elders) and Pashli (A Rito on Dragon Roost Island).
- Princess Midona is named after the French translation of Midna's name.
- Orionas, the mysterious... thing uncovered by Phoenix on Mt. Glaceu. It's basically meant as a Shout Out to Jenova of Final Fantasy VII fame.
Storming the Castle: Happens rather early on.
