Forum:Zeldapedia's own Timeline Theory

I was just thinking about other Zelda Websites and their timeline theory's and i was thinking Why dosen't Zeldapedia have their own timeline theory? I was thinking about it and i was wondering if you guys want an "Unofficial Zeldapedia Timeline Theory". But of course we will have to have 50% or over of the Zeldapedians to accept a theory (if of course we are to have one at all). --Power courage wisdom and time 02:27, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I just klicked on it and those are suggestions I think We should have a web theory. and FS do explain that.more specifically.in short. --Power courage wisdom and time 03:16, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

FS you are a admin right? Could you talk to the other admins about this and OTO can you help me tell other Zeldapedians about this i think more people and admins need to know about this. --Power courage wisdom and time 03:21, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

The only thing I think may be different is The Minish Cap, which I think belongs before Four Swords due to its origin story of the Four Sword. If it occurred before The Wind Waker, it would have likely been destroyed with Hyrule. The only other thing is that Ganondorf seemingly was sent to the Dark World following Twilight Princess. I don't know how Agahnim could revive him if he had long been rumored to have been sealed within the Dark World. It's my thought that since the Master Sword was the final key to the Realm that it sent Ganondorf's spirit (along with the Triforce of Power) to the Dark World and that likely the Ancient Sages placed the seal on the Realm, as is stated in ALttP's legends. This would be in keeping with their descendants being the Seven Maidens later on as well, since they were all basically human or were once human figures. Agahnim likely became a willing vessel for Ganondorf's soul so that he could act outside the Dark World. Agahnim basically played the same role Zant had once played for Ganondorf. Other than that though, I do agree that is the most likely scenario at the present time. Hero of Time 87 04:05, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

here is my theory. --Power courage wisdom and time 15:27, 3 April 2008 (UTC) MC                    | -OoT- /    \                  |     |           Ganon Freed MM              flood     | |   TP                  |     | |   FS                  |     | | oracles |    |                  |    LA                  |     | |   FSA |    |                  |    LoZ |    |                  |    Aol |    |                 WW  AlttP |    |                 PH    End |                End Notes

Hyrule 1: 1st link:MC

2nd link:Oot, MM

3rd link:FS

4th link:OoA, OoS, and LA

5th link:FSA

6th link:LoZ, Aol

Hyrule 2:

1st link:MC

2nd link:Oot

3rd link:WW, PH

Proof

MC happens although i don't know if ganon appeared in this game but after that OoT and he is sealed away then Link is sent back in time and in termina MM happens after that Link returns to Hyrule and he passes on then Link in TP is born and TP occurs ganon is killed in this game so FS occurs then the oracles happen when Twinrova try to revive him in the light world but it fails while Link is going to hyrule he gets to Koliant island while there Dark Link kills Zelda and completes the ritual so Link passes on and the next Link does FSA and ganon is sealed away in the Four Sword after that LoZ happens and ganon is killed and then on Link's 16th b-day and Impa tells how the Zelda from MC got the sleeping spell and Aol passes 100 years pass and the age of legends is over and ganon is in the dark world and escapes and ALttP happens the Triforce complete ganon dead and the ancient prophecy fullfilled.And in Hyrule 2 WW happens then PH.--Power courage wisdom and time 15:27, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I have personally played all the games and know their stories pretty well now. I highly doubt MC comes before OOT, simply because there's almost nothing to connect it to OOT like some others. MC and the Four Swords games likely occur in the new Hyrule found by Link and Tetra, as evidenced by the same toon style that WW uses. I still stand by Fused Shadows' timeline (with the corrections I stated before) because of various reasons. If I get a chance, I'll make those reasons and my timeline known if I get some free time today or tonight. Hero of Time 87 18:15, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

This is how I currently believe it goes. Hero of Time 87 18:55, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

well 1st in TP Ganondorf is killed right? then FS happens and then the oracles when he is nearly revived and then the LA happens while that happens Zelda is killed by dark link and completes ritual time passes on and ganon is killed in LoZ then aol then ganon is released in the Dark World and is killed.for good. and Vaati can't come back because the Four sword is drowned and how can Tetra be the Zelda that has Eternal sleep because it says in Aol that it was the 1st zelda that fell asleep. --Power courage wisdom and time 20:02, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Guys i forgot to mention the war before MC and in OoT are the same. Explaining why it goes 1st. --Power courage wisdom and time 20:50, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Actually, I believe the two wars (the Hyrulean Civil War and the war before the Minish Cap) are different. The Hyrulean Civil War involved the Dark Interlopers, while the Minish Cap's war merely involved an attack of dark creatures. I am not convinced they are the same, because they have VERY different backgrounds, unless the hero of the Minish Cap war was the Hero of Time's father, which I tend to doubt. I still believe the Minish Cap occurs after the flood, explaining the new names of the landmarks in Hyrule. They likely moved far inland when they found a new continent, hence why we do not see an ocean. And then, later in Hyrule's history, they shifted the new Hyrule's boundaries back toward the ocean and renamed some of its landmarks the same as the original Hyrule's landmarks. And the Four Sword Sanctuary was in Frozen Hyrule, not on a mountaintop if I remember correctly. The Four Sword would have been destroyed in the flood had it been before the flood, which to me rules out the possibility of it occurring before the flood. The creation of the Four Sword did not occur until the new Hyrule was founded I believe. And there's actually no evidence currently to determine the identity of the Zelda in Zelda II. Many think she was the first, but it's more widely believed (and I support this) that the Princess Zelda of Ocarina of Time was the first Zelda. The one placed into the enchanted slumber was likely named after her though, hence the shared name. I still stand by the one I posted because it has no major flaws and everything seems to still flow fairly well in it. Hero of Time 87 21:17, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

but the in OoT the Great Deku Tree said that all races were pitted against each other for the Master Sword and the Triforce but the Picori to small to compete made the picori sword for the Hero to End the war (a.k.a. OoT's links father) and he died in the ending battle. any other differences i can explain oh and by the way the monsters are the Twili/Dark interlopers. --Power courage wisdom and time 21:47, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I'm 99.9% certain that the Hyrulean Civil War is the one involving the Twili because all the pieces fit and it's stated in more games than one that there are MANY similar pieces of information about them. I have no doubt they are the same there. And no, I do not think the Four Sword was created before the new Hyrule was founded, because it was never mentioned in the old Hyrule, nor in OOT or TWW. When it's not mentioned in the game before nor the game after, it doesn't seem to fit, that's just how a puzzle works for me. It's logical that MC, FS, and FSA are all in the same group and thus come one after the other because they are the only games to reference the Four Sword. And yes, I told you that the old man in the grave with the Master Sword could be the Hero of Winds or one of his elderly descendants that was passing the sword on to the next hero, kind of like the knight in Indiana Jones. I could see that happening, and since the last person we see in possession of the Master Sword was the Hero of Winds, it makes it plausible.

In the Hyrulean Civil War, the Interlopers sparked the war over the Triforce. The Goddesses sent the Light Spirits to dispose of them and remove them from the equation in the war. With them gone, Ganondorf got the remaining sides to negotiate in the King of Hyrule's favor, uniting the country under the Royal Family's banner and winning the King's trust. And ten years later, Ganondorf had formulated his plan for taking over the Sacred Realm after learning what he needed to open the Door of Time. Then OOT ensues. An no, I am convinced the Hyrulean Civil War was exactly what it says it is: a civil war between the tribes of Hyrule over the Triforce, as is stated in OOT, TP, and ALttP. The war in MC states that the Minish gave the Light Force and the Picori Blade to a hero of that war, which in no way fits with the Hyrulean Civil War. They are two different wars, I have no doubts there. And it makes sense that the forces of evil staged a HUGE comeback in the new Hyrule so as to establish themselves as a force in that new world and ended up sealed within the Bound Chest. The Hero of that war that used the Picori Blade and the Light Force might have even been the Hero of Winds, and it looked like him in the stained glass window too. It's my belief that upon founding the new Hyrule, the evil monsters of the world also followed them there to establish themselves there as well, and that's when the Minish gave the Hero of Winds the Picori Blade and the Light Force to battle the monsters before they could disperse around the new Hyrule. Then they were bound in the chest and kept there for a time. Following that war, the Hero of Winds likely gave the Light Force to Tetra (Princess Zelda), and it journeyed down her line to the Princess Zelda of Minish Cap. That is my theory, and it has no major flaws and seems to make sense to me. It just makes no sense for MC to occur before the flood because it's not referenced in TWW or in OOT, and it just doesn't fit really. Hero of Time 87 02:36, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

I can believe it, because if you notice, there don't appear to be a HUGE number of Twili at the time of Zant's Invasion of Hyrule, suggesting they hadn't been in the Twilight Realm long enough to generate a very big population. Even within the Twilight Realm itself there didn't appear to be very many at all. If another game came between the Imprisoning War and the Great Flood, it's one that has yet to be released because as I said, the Four Sword would have been destroyed in the flood. I think only about a century or so separates TMC from FS as well as FS from FSA. That makes the most sense since knowledge of the Four Sword still existed in those games. I still maintain they go together as a group. The "legends" that were spoken of in TWW's beginning were the legends of the Hero of Time and the land of Hyrule that had once existed beneath them. That could encompass a lot of things, but the Four Sword likely didn't exist before the flood, it just doesn't fit. And I suggested the old man could be the Hero of Winds for two reasons: 1) the only people we know of being able to handle the Master Sword are regularly the Heroes of the games, and 2) The last person we see with the Master Sword in his possession is the Hero of Winds. The old man may not be the Hero of Winds, but merely one of his descendants awaiting in his ancestor's grave. Either way, the old man has some connection to the Hero bloodline if he was in possession of the Master Sword. I'm not saying TMC "can't" occur before the flood, it's just a lot less likely due to the fact that the flood would have wiped out the Four Sword with the original Hyrule.

In my version: The Minish Cap occurs in the new Hyrule, following the establishment of a new nation by the Hero of Winds and Tetra. The Hero of Winds was still in possession of the Master Sword (recovered just as he drifted away from the original Hyrule). In this new land, the creatures of evil attack the new nation to assert their authority and to seek revenge for their master's defeat in the original Hyrule. In this war, the tiny Minish appear and give the Hero of Winds the Picori Blade and the Light Force to combat the evil creatures and succeeds, locking them in the Bound Chest with the Picori Blade. That's another thing, the Four Sword was originally the Pircori Blade and rested within the Bound Chest, not in a Sanctuary. It wasn't until after the Minish Cap that the Four Sword Sanctuary was built to house the blade. The Hero of Winds gifts the Light Force to Tetra, who subsequently passes it down her line to eventually end up with the Princess Zelda of The Minish Cap. A century or so later, Four Swords occurs, and the Four Links defeat Vaati again. The same happens another century or so later in Four Swords Adventures. When the Hero of Winds passed away, the Master Sword was interred with his remains in the cemetery, and his descendants kept watch over the blade, waiting for the day when a new hero would come in search of it. Then a new hero arises and comes for the Master Sword, which the old man (a relative of the Hero of Winds) gives to him. Then comes AoL. Hero of Time 87 03:29, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

And I maintain that the Interloper war IS the Hyrulean Civil War, because all the pieces fit. And I tend to doubt that the Link in FS and FSA is the same, because I don't think Vaati's going to escape that often. I think they are two different Links, just being realistic. And as I said, the Interloper War and the Hyrulean Civil War I am 99.9% sure they are the same because all indicators point to it. That's a foregone conclusion for my timeline.

And Aenouma said TMC is the oldest of the Four Swords games, not the oldest game of any. In fact, Miyamoto, the series creator, has indicated the oldest one is OOT. Hero of Time 87 19:59, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

That's precisely what Lanayru said: All tribes lived content in mind and body until word of the Sacred Realm spread throughout the world, and the Dark Interlopers were the first to attempt to seize the Triforce in the spark to the Hyrulean Civil War. Something sparked the Hyrulean Civil War, and it involved a fight over the Triforce as indicated in ALttP. We know that the Dark Interlopers lived in Hyrule and that they attempted to do just that, so connecting the dots isn't that hard to do. It's a foregone conclusion as I said in my timeline, they are the same war.

And I will say it again, the Twili population didn't appear to be THAT big to begin with. If you think about it, there wasn't much opposition to them at all from the populace of Hyrule, and Link only killed three or four at a time over several intervals. And there were only a few seen in the Twilight Realm. There weren't that many to begin with, indicating they hadn't been in the Twilight Realm all that long really, maybe only a little over a century. It was still recent enough for Zant to still be bitter about it, so that's another thing to consider. The indicators just point to them not having been in there that long.

I never once heard or saw them say that the Link and Zelda in FS and FSA were the same. It would make things easier in deciphering the times between games if it did, but there was no direct confirmation of that. I just tend to doubt that they are the same because realistically, I don't think Vaati's going to be released that soon after Four Swords. They could be the same, I'm not saying they aren't. I'm just saying there's nothing direct that confirms that, and it seems unlikely Vaati would escape yet again that soon after he was re-bound within the Four Sword. For all we know though, they could be the same Link and Zelda, but look at it this way: We didn't see the Royal Jewels, or the Shrine Maidens in Four Swords, whereas we did in FSA. That's another indicator to me that there is some time between the games for those elements to be installed. Hero of Time 87 06:13, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

I personally think it's fine to adopt the most likely situation as Zeldapedia's timeline, but you aren't listening to what I'm saying either. Ganondorf was not around in Four Swords, so again that's only a guess. As I said, I maintain they are a three-member block of the series that go together, not separated. It doesn't make sense for the Minish Cap to occur before the flood (why would Mount Crenel appear in the Minish Cap if it occurred in old Hyrule, where we know Death Mountain was the main mountain?). It makes far more logical sense that the Minish Cap occurs after the flood in the new Hyrule, when the slate had been wiped clean you might say. I have only seen little of Four Swords because it's more difficult to play when you don't have many players to occupy the other Links, but the differences in Hyrule combined with the fact that we don't see the Shrine Maidens or much of the rest of what we saw in Four Swords Adventures in Four Swords, leads me to believe that there was some time that passed between the games, a few years at least. It had to be long enough for Hyrule's landscape to have changed somewhat. Do I believe that it occurred relatively close to Four Swords? Yes. Do I think that it occurred just a few weeks or months afterward? No. It just doesn't seem as likely to me. I do think it occurred maybe a few "years" after Four Swords though, that's more believable. I have no "strong feelings" on many matters other than what I know almost certain is the correct path. I am far more certain that the Interloper war and the Hyrulean Civil War are the same than I am about the time length between FS and FSA. I have no doubts at all in my mind that the Hyrulean Civil War was the one involving the Interlopers. But it's far more questionable about FS and FSA because we don't know for sure what the time difference was between them. You are right, it does seem to imply they are the same Link and Zelda from Four Swords in Four Swords Adventures, but it still doesn't answer just how much time passes between the two games. If I had to guess, it was a few years at least, presuming they are in fact the same Link and Zelda (which after viewing the intro to FSA again I do tend to agree with since I have not played FSA since last summer). Hero of Time 87 19:08, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

I'm like Avril, I'd say there were other Twili that weren't forced into Zant's army that fled the coup, but just how many there were is debateable since we never actually meet them. And just as PCWT said, that is a theory with multiple meanings. Mine is based off of links drawn between the games.

1) We know there was a war that broke out just shortly before the outbreak of the Imprisoning War over the Triforce from ALttP.

2) We know there was a civil war that occurred ten years (or thereabouts) before OOT, and we don't see the Dark Interlopers anywhere in OOT.

3) We know from Lanayru that the Interlopers were the first to try to seize the Triforce from the Sacred Realm and that it sparked a great war between the tribes of Hyrule.

So, connecting the dots, all indicators point to the Interlopers being the ones to spark the Hyrulean Civil War over their attempt to take over the Sacred Realm. That's just using logic. And that's based off of the facts we already know from the games, and they appear in more than one game. I still maintain they are the same war. Hero of Time 87 01:36, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

I am starting to go into detail here. Hero of Time 87 03:43, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Personaly for those people who don't know. I am Grandtriforce999. I helped Power Courage Wisdom and Time on the timelin therory. For those that think that OoT is first Iam not surprised. Because in 1998 Miamoto sorry it is hard to spell japanies names said that Oot was the first game. This was 7 years before TMC. But there is many resons TMC comes first.

Retrieved from "http://zelda.wikia.com/wiki/Forum_talk:Zeldapedia%27s_own_Timeline_Theory"

There's A LOT of "ancient heroes" mentioned in the games, it doesn't mean they're all the same. Mine is more logical because the Four Sword (as I've said many times) would have been destroyed in the Flood. That's a blatant flaw in the timeline for yours, and as such can't logically work. I believe that The Minish Cap takes place long after Tetra and Link establish a new Hyrule and that the war with the "ancient hero" was one of the Hero of Winds' descendants or possibly the Hero of Winds himself. But there's NO way the Minish Cap can come before the flood, because it would have been destroyed as I've said time after time. And yes, Miyamoto said OOT was the first, and there's been no statement to retract that statement. I see no real reasons why the Minish Cap would be before OOT, and logically that's not possible. Hero of Time 87 23:08, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

1) It was originally the Picori Blade and was in the Bound Chest, which never once appeared in OOT or was even heard of.

2) The Four Sword Sanctuary was NOT built on a mountaintop, anyone knows that from FSA.  It was built in Frozen Hyrule near the base of the Tower of Winds.  So that is an incorrect statement.

3) And no, I'm saying that your timeline makes no sense because the sword would have been destroyed by the flood.  And the hero mentioned in Twilight Princess was the Hero of Time, not the "ancient hero" of Minish Cap.  In Hyrule, 100 years in fact may be considered "ancient."  You have to think of it outside the context of our own world and in terms of Hyrule itself.  Again, we never even hear of the Four Sword there in Twilight Princess either or of the Bound Chest.  It's just not really in the cards, you're being stubborn and not accepting that yours is a little more far-fetched.  I have edited my timeline when I run into more logical things, but yours has a HUGE flaw in it, and I continue to mainain that the Minish Cap is after the flood in the new Hyrule, as was the "ancient war" that it mentioned.  And I think it's you that is being stubborn here and not wanting to admit that yours just may be wrong. Hero of Time 87 23:26, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Fused Shadow, YOU ARE NOT LISTENING TO ME EITHER! That was an ENTIRELY new continent they discovered, not a mere mountaintop of Hyrule. Hyrule was destroyed. So you're saying the World of the Ocean King was once a part of Hyrule too? No, it wasn't. Hyrule was destroyed, and only the parts that we saw in the Wind Waker were parts of it. The new Hyrule was a NEW CONTINENT. So you are not thinking correctly there. The flood would have wiped out the Four Sword, and that's that. There's NO way it could have been before the flood, I'm just being bluntly logical and honest. The war mentioned in Twilight Princess was the Hyrulean Civil War, and the Hero of Time was born during that conflict. The hero mentioned in TP is the HERO OF TIME. Anyone could tell you that, and that's been implied all over the place in TP. Many even suspect that the Hero's Shade is the Hero of Time's spirit. So that is my standing on that issue because it all fits. And yes, in Hyrule, ancient may mean a different amount of time than it does to us. And that would be considered "in times long past," because it doesn't mention a particular amount of time in that definition. I maintain that the Minish Cap comes after the flood in the new Hyrule, which is a BRAND NEW CONTINENT discovered by the Hero of Winds and Tetra. I'm sorry, but I go with what's most likely, and Minish Cap occuring before the flood isn't likely at all considering that Hyrule's completely different in MC from OOT and TWW (why would they name the mountain Death Mountain in OOT, change it to Mount Crenel in TMC, and change it back to Death Mountain by the time of TWW?) and that the Four Sword would have been destroyed by the flood. Hero of Time 87 23:55, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Fused Shadow, while what you are saying is "possible," it is not "likely." You're saying they just picked up the whole of Hyrule's populace and moved to a completely different region? I don't think so. Plus we don't see the Gorons or the Zoras in TMC, and we see them in TWW. How do you explain that one? I don't see any way to explain it. As I said, what you're saying is more "out there" than what I've suggested. There's A LOT more room for error and not nearly so much evidence to suggest those things. I maintain that the Hyrule of TMC is the new Hyrule founded by Link and Tetra of TWW. That's just logical, because it explains why the evil creatures attacked when they did and why they did in the first place. It explains the absence of the Zoras and the Gorons. It explains why the Four Sword exists and why it didn't previously before the Flood. I'm sorry, but I just can't see yours being at the top of the list of timelines because there's just no logical explanation for the Four Sword's appearance in TMC. The Hyrule we knew of from OOT was destroyed in TWW, and thus the Four Sword would have been destroyed with it, so it's ruled out of the question. The Four Sword was not created until the new Hyrule was found and established. I hope it is you that will see reason and realize that the Minish Cap occurring before the Wind Waker is not logically possible. Hero of Time 87 00:16, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Fused Shadow, your statements keep getting further and further out there. None of what you said really is based on any kind of evidence, merely speculation. At least what I've said has something concrete that it stems from. You are making A LOT of assumptions, leaving a lot of room for error. And my statement was that when they established the new Hyrule, which the Gorons would have found their way to from TWW, they moved inland away from the sea but then shifted back centuries later toward the sea. There's not nearly so much room for error in that. The remaning truth is that your timeline is "possible" but not "likely." It's more likely that TMC takes place in the new Hyrule. The Hyrule of TWW and OOT looks nothing like TMC's, another point of question. I maintain my stance and that it remains somewhat more likely. Hero of Time 87 00:35, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

The thing about being "out there" means that it's not "as likely." That's what's wrong: If there's something that has less chance of being incorrect, that's generally the closest thing to being correct. And yes, for we that don't know the full chronology yet from Miyamoto and Aenouma, the most likely scenario is the one we need to be going with until something more likely surfaces. That's the best way to avoid errors.

Why would they have moved inland? Let's think: They've lived around an ocean for hundreds of years...They've been sailing for months, possibly years looking for a new Hyrule....They're probably going to be tired of being near the ocean and want to explore the new continent they found. That's why. And there you go again: "there could be another castle or town underwater somewhere else." Again, there's no legitimate basis to back up that assumption. It's not based on any concrete evidence. And no, it does not have to have been a mountain necessarily. The World of the Ocean King is proof of that. The new Hyrule was an entirely new continent, likely created by the Goddesses following the flooding of Hyrule. There's no way possible that a landmass that expansive is going to have been a "mountain." The islands, yes that's believable because they are smaller. But an entire continent? No. I maintain once more that the Minish Cap occurs in the new Hyrule, with Four Swords and Four Swords Adventures following it. I also maintain that the "ancient hero" and war spoken of in the Minish Cap occurred in that new land, quite possibly involving the Hero of Winds and Tetra or their descendants. Hero of Time 87 02:05, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Avril: It didn't, that's just it. It was likely created when the Goddesses created the sea, for the day when those survivors would seek to rebuild the kingdom of Hyrule elsewhere should they choose to. My thoughts, the continent that is the new Hyrule did not previously exist (at least not in its current form) during the times of the old Hyrule. But upon flooding the original Hyrule, a new continent was formed by the Goddesses for a new civilization to form when they finally sought it out. Also notice that the original Hyrule only encompassed the part of the Great Sea that we saw in TWW, and nowhere else. Beyond that, it was outside the original Hyrule's boundaries. The Goddesses created a new continent upon the creation of the Great Sea outside the boundaries of the original Hyrule. Hero of Time 87 03:52, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

They obviously do find a new Hyrule because that's exactly what they stated they were trying to do in TWW and PH. Also, it explains why Hyrule looks so different and borders an ocean in later games (LOZ, AOL, etc.). I think Zelda Wii is going to probably stick with the other timeline that involves the original Hyrule, such as the one that has Twilight Princess in it. It leaves more room for action.
