Forum:The zelda connection

As we all know, in the beginning of every Zelda game link starts in a different town and different place. However there can only be one link and only one Zelda.

this is my theory on how they connect.

first off, i am not even going to try and connect all the various 2-d fourth generation and hand-held games. there are way to many and besides, they contradict one another quite frequently (Zelda link to the past or Zelda 2)  that being so, i am going to connect Ocarina of time through twilight princess

first (obviously) link is somehow born in the forest of Oot, after going through the adventure he started his search for navi (up for debate) and majoras mask explains the rest.

remember that during Oot link was frozen in the temple of time for 7 years and it would seem to me that the only reason he stayed where he was was because of his search for navi. after seven years being lost everything was different for link, and as he searched for a new place to call home he eventually found the little island that is shown in wind waker, he stayed there for some time.

on the island he grew fond of the old lady that he stayed with and eventually came to call her "grandma" along with her grand child whom he called "sister"

evidence of this is shown when link receives his "birthday clothes" and is uncomfortable with them. however we all know that link is no whiner, due to previous adventures and the records kept on the island he knew (or at least speculated) that he was the hero of time. when receiving his clothes he suspected that this was the beginning of another adventure.

it is obvious to me that the event that occurred during Oot and majoras mask caused link much grief, perhaps after the changing of his home, and the loss of navi made him uncomfortable with the idea of another adventure.

it can also be noted that when link needed his shield the grandma anticipated his actions and took it down, that implies that link had a shield previously,when he came.

it is possible that links grandma did not approve of his sword and shield carrying and was reluctant to see link return to his previous type of life.
