User:Princess Zelda VI

Introduction
Hello, fellow Zelda Wiki Users! I'm Princess Zelda VI of Hyrule. I am 12 years old, and on August 21, I turn 13! For those of you who can't read Roman numerals, that's Princess Zelda the Sixth. I joined this Wiki on Sunday, April 22, 2007, which happens to be Earth Day, at about 9:18 AM. I'm new here, so my User Page will need so work before it's fully done. I'm on my way to adding pictures!

Family History
I can trace my ancestry all the way back from Princess Zelda I, Princess Zelda the First, the one who aided the legendary Hero of Time, and all the way to Princess Zelda V, the Fifth, the one who Ganon kidnapped and imprisoned her on Death Mountain. My family is very ancient. It comes from the time when Hyrule was created! All the way from the warrior-cheiftain known as King Hyrule I, the First, to my father King Hyrule IX, King Hyrule the Ninth, whose court is in North Castle, built around a few hundred years before my father's rule. We are also on close terms with the Link family, one that can also trace its ancestry to the Hero of Time, Link I, the First. Over time, their family moved to Calatia, a country to the west of Hyrule. That is where Link IV, the Fourth, the one who defeated Ganon for good, hailed from.

Zelda Elements' Timeline
I know that this is already on the Timeline Theory Page, but I like it the most and I decided I want to showcase it on my User Page.

The chronological order of the Zelda series is widely disputed. The first few games in the series were created without a franchise mentality, and recent attempts to solidify an overall coherence have been muddled by Aonuma and Miyamoto's official comments. Still, while an overarching structure is ambiguous at best, there are definitive links between games that can be used to create a Hyrulian Timeline.

(AC - After Creation)

The Creation of Hyrule (0 AC)
In the beginning, there was nothing.

Three powerful and beautiful goddesses, Din, Farore and Nayru, descended from the heavens. Din, the Goddess of Power, created land with all of her might. Rocks and heat were made and this paved the way for Nayru, the Goddess of Wisdom, to create the sparkling blue skies. This bought with it tranquillity and hospitality to the world of Hyrule. Farore, the Goddess of Courage, spread life throughout this barren world, creating plants and animals and filling the world with colour.

When the job was finished, the three Goddesses left Hyrule to return to the heavens. The left a gift for the world; a sacred golden triangle, the Triforce held immense power, and would grant a wish to the person that touches it.

Destiny would forever create a power struggle, as Three were destined to hold one part of the Triforce. Ganon, the Triforce of Power. The royal bloodline of Princess Zelda, the Triforce of Wisdom. The heroic bloodline of Link, the Triforce of Courage.

And thus begins The Legend of Zelda.

Link I: The Hero of Time
The Imprisoning War (1100-1107 AC)

One was destined to decimate Hyrule and plunge it into darkness. Two were destined to save Hyrule, and bring prosperity to the world.

The evil Ganondorf, of Gerudo origin, posed as the King's loyal servant for many months. The King of Hyrule, along with the rest of the Kingdom, fell for Ganondorf's loyalty. Except for one little girl. For she dreamt of things that others couldn't imagine.

The Princess Zelda is of a psychic bloodline. Her dreams are prophecies. Not long before the Imprisoning War, her dreams were nightmares, hinting of the horrors to come. But there was a shining light in her dream, something that split apart Ganondorf's evil reign.

Link wasn't like the other Kokiri - when the children of the Kokiri came of age, they were given a fairy companion, Link had never received his. One night, Link had a particularly bad dream about a white horse being followed by a black, evil one. This was no coincidence. Link was to embark on a grand adventure which would lead him to becoming the Hero Of Time.

The Great Deku Tree knew of the impending horrors that Hyrule would face, for he could feel them. Protector of the Kokiri, the Deku Tree had been poisoned by Ganondorf, and would soon leave the Kokiri defenceless. He knew Link was a special boy, and he knew the time would come for Link to become a man, for he wasn't like the other Kokiri. He wasn't a Kokiri at all, but a special Hylian boy who had been brought to the forest by a wartorn mother, and unlike the forest children, he would one day grow up, grow old.

Still, Link couldn't save the Deku Tree. In his dying breaths he gave Link the first spiritual stone that we would need in his quest. Told to go to Hyrule Castle and meet up with Zelda, he was informed by her that he would need another two spiritual stones. After saving the Dodongo's Cavern from the Dodongos, and saving Jabu-Jabu, Link had the three spiritual stones he would need to open the Door Of Time. But to his despair, on returning to the castle he was greeted the realisation of his nightmare. Ganondorf, on a dark steed, was chasing Impa and Zelda out of the Castle. Knowing that Link was Hyrule's last hope, Zelda threw the Ocarina Of Time, the key to the Sacred Realm, into the Castle Town Moat.

When he opened the Door of Time using the Sacred Stones and his new Ocarina, Link was put to sleep for seven long years. Over this time, Hyrule's greatest warriors were murdered in the bloodiest battle ever seen in Hyrule. The Royal Family were evicted from the Castle by Ganondorf's evil minions, the residents of Hyrule Castle Town Market forced to flee to Kakariko Village, and those not quick enough to escape were turned into ReDeads. Zora's Domain was frozen over and the previously untouched Kokiri Forest was taken over by vicious plant life.

When Link was woken, he found himself a child trapped in a man's body. He was informed that he was the only one able to save Hyrule from Ganondorf, but he first needed the Seven Sages. They had been imprisoned in seven different dungeons, and Link was tasked with freeing them. During his quest, a mysterious warrior named Sheik helped Link on his journey.

When Link had saved the Sages, he met with Sheik in the Temple of Time. It was revealed that the character of Sheik was a disguise for Princess Zelda, who had been taught in the ways of the Sheikah by her nursemaid, Impa. The moment she revealed her true identity, she was captured by Ganondorf. Link went to Ganondorf's Castle and with the help of the Seven Sages, they destroyed the barriers that had kept Ganondorf safe for so long.

An amazing fight between the carriers of Courage and Power took place at the top of the tower. Courage overcame Power, and with Ganondorf's last breath of power, the castle came crashing down. Link tried to escape with Zelda, but just as they thought they were free, Ganon emerged from the wreckage. Using Navi's help and Zelda's magic, Ganon was slayed and imprisoned in the Sacred Realm. Transforming back into Ganondorf, the Evil King made a pledge that would come back to haunt Hyrule; he would one day return, and he would murder the descendants of Link and Zelda.

Zelda, feeling guilty for robbing Link of his childhood, used the Song of Time to send Link back to his own time period.

Apocalypse (1100 AC)

A few months had passed since Link took his place among heroes. Riding through the woods on Epona, his faithful steed, Link's activities were cut short when a familiar face came along to ruin his day. Skull Kid, wearing a strange mask, knocked Link down and stole Epona. The Hero of Time did not take kindly to the idea of having his horse stolen, and hung on to Epona's legs for dear life. Who were those two fairies with Skull Kid?

Falling. Beautiful colours, faces and shapes were everywhere. It was like the most fantastic dream, yet it all seemed so real.

Whatever Link had just experienced, it didn't matter. He knew that he was no longer in Hyrule. Skull Kid was acting strangely, and took off with Epona, locking Link in a room. But who's this? Skull Kid left Tatl behind, one of the fairies. As it turned out, Tatl was a very rude and impatient fairy, one with little confidence in Link's talents.

After being introduced to the world of Termina by another familiar face, The Happy Mask Salesman, Link took on the role as the land's saviour. It turned out that Skull Kid was part of a bigger picture. He was being used by Majora's Mask to summon the moon, which would destroy Termina.

Link found out that he must relive his 3 days in Termina until he has awoken the four gods that will stop Skull Kid, using his Ocarina Of Time to manipulate Termina's time flow.

After awakening the four gods, and using masks to transform into many different creatures, Link was ready for the final test. The gods were summoned on day three and they kept the moon in place, while Link was sucked inside to take on Majora's Mask alone. When the battle was done and dusted, Link emerged the victor. Lives could go on as usual in Termina, and it was time for Link to return home.

However, before departing, Skull Kid, Tatl, and Tael bid their farewells. It seems that Skull Kid didn't want any of it to happen, and was very sorry for what he did. However, he did recognize something very familiar about Link... It seems that Skull Kid, too, was a Hyrulian.

It is thought that the Hero of Time went home to Hyrule and enjoyed the time of peace he had bought to the land.

Link II: The Hero of Winds
The Great Flood (1200-1400 AC)

Around one-hundred years after The Hero of Time locked Gerudo king Ganondorf in the Sacred Realm, trouble stirred in Hyrule once more. The Hero had long since passed away; almost thirty years had passed. Somehow, a seal was broken, the door to the Sacred Realm unlocked, and Ganondorf was set free to rule over Hyrule once more. The hero garbed in green didn't show up, despite the pleas and the prayer from the residents of Hyrule. Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule, the King, had to save his Kingdom and end the rule of tyranny. Evacuating his people to the highest points of the Hyrulian geography, he asked the Gods to stop the madness, and they did so by flooding Hyrule, over days, weeks, and months of ceaseless rain.

Ganondorf and the King were gone, and the Great Sea was born.

Two-hundred years later, on Outset Island, a young boy called Link was coming of age. Having to spend the day in the same green clothes of the Hero was fairly embarrassing for him, but his day was about to get more complicated than moaning about silly clothes. Link lived with his Grandma and sister, Aryll, and they lived a peaceful life, up until this day. You see, the forces of evil were gathering once more, Ganondorf Dragmire was back and ready to claim the remainders of Hyrule as his own.

Tetra, a seemingly fearless pirate with a mysterious past was kidnapped by a bird monster, who dropped her in the Outset Island Forest. Seeing this with the telescope Aryll lent him for his birthday, Link went after her. Aryll chased after Link, and when he and Tetra emerged from the forest, they could only watch as Aryll was also kidnapped by the Helmaroc King and taken away somewhere. Link pleaded with Tetra to take him with her and her crew, but it was only when the Rito Postman intervened that she gave in and took him aboard.

After a failed attempt to infiltrate the Forsaken Fortress, which is where Tetra correctly believed Aryll was being held, Link ended up on a journey of his own, which started to spiral out of control. It emerged that he was the next Hero, and bestowed upon him was the Wind Waker, a baton which held the power of Gods. A quest for various jewels, sages and the Triforce ensued - he ended up resurrecting the Temple of Time, and met Hyrule's old king. It also turned out that Tetra wasn't who anyone though she was - she was of the bloodline of the legendary Princess Zelda.

Link and Zelda restored the Master Sword and used it, along with Light Arrows, to confront Ganondorf and defeat him. The King of Hyrule ordered the Triforce to forever seal away Hyrule under the oceans. Tetra and Link were to search for and create a new world, one different to Hyrule.

A Brave New World (1401 AC)

Little is currently known about this chapter in Hyrule's history, though researchers are close to finding the full story.

Months had passed since Link and Zelda defeated Ganondorf at the top of the Forsaken Fortress. Link and the Pirates had begun to explore the world outside of the Great Sea, when they came across an area shrouded in mysterious fog. Inside was a ghost ship, which Zelda foolishly tries to explore alone. On a rescue mission, Link gets knocked unconscious and is woken up on a strange island by a fairy. The two work together to find Zelda so they can travel back to the Great Seas.

Link III: The Hero of Hyrule
The Dark Army (1700 AC)

In the Sacred Realm, Ganondorf had found the Triforce and wished for Hyrule. The Triforce grants whoever touches it their wish, whether that wish is for good, or for evil. The Triforce only granted the Gerudo King a twisted version of Hyrule that reflected his bitter heart, right there in his Sacred Realm prison. The innocent citizens of Hyrule were oblivious of this development, and Ganondorf spent his time raising a dark army of monsters to take across into the Light World. A strange wizard named Agahnim knew exactly what Ganondorf was up to, however, and tried to free him from his prison.

One stormy night, all was not well in Hyrule Castle. After being haunted by dreams, Link's Uncle went to investigate, sword and shield in hand, but as he made his way through the secret entrance to the castle, he was attacked in the dark tunnels. Noticing his uncle had gone, young Link got up to investigate, and as a trusted friend of the Royal Family, he too went through the secret entrance. Finding his uncle slumped in the tunnels and badly injured, he took the sword and shield and the two parted ways.

Link freed Zelda from the castle prison, and took her to the Sanctuary where she would be safe from Agahnim. Then advised to go and talk with Sahasrala, Link learned that he must free the descendants of the Seven Sages if he was to save Hyrule from Ganondorf. He was too late, however, and despite an epic adventure between the Light and Dark Worlds, Zelda was captured and Ganondorf was partially revived as the mindless, violent pig Ganon. An epic battle followed, with Link defeating Agahnim and locking Ganon back where he came from. The Triforce was safe and it bestowed a wish upon Link.

Hyrule was restored to its former glory.

The Great Adventure (1701-1702 AC)

With the Triforce safe and Hyrule restored, years passed and Link spent his times exploring the world. However, evil was brewing once more in two lands - Labrynna and Holodrum. The Triforce beckoned Link to its resting place, and transported him to Labrynna.

Nayru, the Oracle of Ages, had felt that dark times were ahead for some weeks. Named after a goddess, Nayru kept the world's time in order using her Harp of Ages, though this special instrument proved lucrative to wrongdoers. One such enemy was a witch named Veran, who possessed Nayru to exploit her powers, going back in time and attacking the smaller, weaker Labrynna. Link had to find the eight Essences of Time to reach Veran, defeat her, and save Nayru. When his work was over in Labrynna, the Triforce sent him to a land called Holodrum.

A girl called Din was at risk from a metal-plated warlord named General Onox. She was the Oracle of Seasons, and controlled their flow using her Rod of Seasons. When Onox kidnaps her, the seasons spin out of control, and Link had to restore the Rod before he could attack Onox and save Din. When the Oracle was freed and Onox slayed, the Hero uncovered a disturbing plot by legendary witches Twinrova that aimed to sacrifice Princess Zelda in order to revive Ganon once more.

While Link defeated Twinrova, as his ancestor had done, and saved Princess Zelda, he was too late to stop the resurrection of Ganon. Once more, Courage triumphed over Power and the Evil King was defeated. Link's work was done, and he sailed away from these new lands and new friends in search of fresh adventures.

The Wind Fish (1703 AC)

After a long and tiresome adventure through the lands of Labrynna and Holodrum, Link sailed away in search of new adventures. During his journey, he and his boat encountered a terrible storm, and despite his best efforts to ride it out, his boat was completely destroyed.

Link woke up with a mouth full of sand and a ear full of song. Somehow, Zelda had found Link, or maybe he'd washed up on Hyrule, or maybe...

He opened his eyes. The girl was called Marin, and he learned that he'd been shipwrecked on an island called Koholint. The island was looked over by the Wind Fish, and Link learned that in recent times, his dreams had become restless; plagued by Nightmares, evil creatures who existed only to keep the Wind Fish asleep. But why? If the Wind Fish awoke, the island would disappear, but if stayed asleep, Link could never leave. Again... why? Link was to learn.

Throughout his journey, Link made many friends. Kaebora Gaebora, a wise owl similar to one spoken of in legends, acting as an animal spirit guide. He became very close to Marin, a girl who trusted Link enough to tell him her wildest dreams of flying away like a seagull. As Link progressed through his adventure, Nightmares fell one by one, and Link gained instruments needed to wake the Wind Fish.

When all were collected, Link stepped inside the Wind Fish's egg to vanquish the last of his Nightmares. These were the most traumatic of all - taking the form of evil wizard Agahnim and Ganon, monsters Link never wished to face again. When the memories were banished, the Wind Fish woke from his slumber, and so did Link.

It had all been a dream. Link woke in the midst of his boat wreckage. Sitting on some driftwood, he spent his time collecting his thoughts, and tried to make sense of all that had just happened. Looking up, the silhouette of the Wind Fish was blocking the sun, before it disappeared. And then, looking down, he saw a lone seagull that just felt, felt like Marin.

Had it all been a dream?

Link IV: The Hero of Calatia
Return of Ganon (1900 AC)

In the time between Link III ridding the world of all evil in 1703 AC, and the birth of Link IV in 1890 AC, the Kingdom of Hyrule prospered. It extended outwards, from its insulated position in what would become Southwest Hyrule (which was sheltered by Death Mountain among other landmarks), to include other unclaimed territories. The New Hyrule was a loved, vast expanse of land. The people were proud - of the toil their people had gone through, the sacrifice, and the eventual resurrection of Hyrule.

However, not everything was happy in the land of Hyrule...

The coming of a new Hero is always a bad sign. The legends of old had been either lost or distorted through the ages - and while Ganon was a fresh memory in the world's mind, it wasn't content to dwell on it. Link IV was born in Calatia in 1890 AC, exactly 10 years before trouble brewed in Hyrule once more.

Southwest Hyrule, old Hyrule, began to be overrun with monsters. The Evil King spoke of in legends had mysteriously returned. He stole the Triforce of Power and unleashed his evil minions across the land and begun his search for the remaining parts of the Triforce. The Princess Zelda had sensed Ganon's revival, a power derived from her ancestors, so she split the Triforce of Wisdom across the land, hiding those pieces in the darkest, dankest remnants of a fallen Kingdom. Impa, her maid, set off on a quest to Calatia to find the Hero of whom Princess Zelda spoke. The Hero arrived, and his name was Link.

Successfully collecting the parts of the Triforce of Wisdom, Link arrived at Death Mountain to take on Ganon. The sages long gone, the Triforce of Courage seemingly disappeared, it seemed that there was no choice but to destroy Ganon once and for all. He did so, independently, as no other Hero had yet been able to. This traveler from Calatia became the Hero of Calatia, though he hadn't finished protecting the land yet...

Banishment of Evil (1906 AC)

The final chapter of the Legend of Zelda is a morbid one. Link IV turns 16, and on his birthday he receives a most unexpected gift. On the back of his hand the symbol of the Triforce of Courage is revealed. His close friend and Royal Family servant Impa tells him that the symbol has appeared because he is the chosen one, the one trusted with the hidden Triforce of Courage, and it is only he who can revive Princess Zelda III.

Princess Zelda III?

Two hundred years ago, when Hyrule began its road to prosperity, another wizard reared his head. The King was getting old, and eventually died - of course, it should be the Prince of Hyrule who became King and inherited the Triforce, but unfortunately for him he was only allowed one such part of the Triforce. During the later years of his life, after Link III had left the land of Hyrule, this wizard told the Prince that Princess Zelda knew exactly where the missing pieces of the Triforce lay. The Princess did not tell the Prince, nor did she tell the wizard, but the wizard threatened to put her in an eternal sleep if she did not comply.

Back in 1900, the missing part of the Triforce was still in a peaceful rest, and Princess Zelda III was sleeping in a hidden room within North Castle. Link set out on a quest for this missing Triforce to which he was destined and to wake Princess Zelda by uniting the Triforce.

Unknown to the Royal Family, however, was that minions of Ganon were planning to revive the evil King - but to do so they needed the blood of the Hero.

The Gerudo King was never brought back to life, and Princess Zelda was saved. As far as legends tell, the Kingdom of Hyrule forever remained a place of peace and prosperity.

Link IV remained living in North Castle to protect Princess Zelda, her father, King Harkinian, and the reunited Triforce.

Note: The Minish Cap, Four Swords, and Four Swords Adventures are considered part of an alternative timeline.
