User:Fused Shadow

Hello. I and Fused Shadow. If you didn't notice I like Twilight Princess. You can normally find me on the wikia zelda wiki: http://zelda.wikia.com. But I bring to you my timeline. Please, if anything doesn't work out in my theory, let me know on my talk page. I will accept any and all feedback with good humour. So, without further ado, I bring you the timeline.

Timeline Theory
Before the Split: OoT

Timeline A: MC > FS > TWW > PH > OoS

Timeline B: MM > TP > aLttP > OoA

After the Fusion: OoA/OoS > LA > FSA > LoZ > AoL

Fused Timeline Theory
The Fused Timeline Theory is an element of the Split Timeline Theory, but with a major difference. At the time of the Oracle games, there is one of each Twinrova sister in each timeline; a different one in each. They use dark magic and learn of the timeline split. Though Ganon is dead in both timelines, they concoct a plan: light the Flames of Sorrow and Destruction and fuse the timelines, reuniting them and resurrecting Ganon. The side effects are, of course, severe. Another Veran and Onox appear, from the other timeline, and cause trouble. The lands of Holodrum and Labraynna become available for people from the other timeline, and two Links (from the separate timelines) appear. One travels to Holodrum, one to Labrynna. They contact each other with the help of Farore, Oracle of Secrets, who resides in each Maku Tree. They too, eventually fuse together (without noticing) and go on to battle Twinrova, and then the partially resurrected Ganon.

The Lands of The Legend of Zelda
The four dimensions are: The Light World (Hyrule), The Dark World (The Golden Realm), Termina (also known as the Minish Realm, I'll explain later), and the Twilight Realm (where the Guardians stored the Light Force). The evidence that Termina is the Minish Realm is here: there are four Guardians, and there are four elements, and a Four Sword, in three games. The Minish came from another dimension, and so why invent a new one when we can put them together? Also, after the Light Force was taken from Termina the Terminans lost faith in their gods and became more technologically advanced, rather than magically adept. When the Twili were banished from Hyrule, the Minish helped to create a mirror that allowed travel between Hyrule and the Twilight Realm instantly, instead of waiting 100 years as explained in MC. The Light World is divided into three sections: Holodrum, the land of Din, Labrynna, the land of Nayru, and Hyrule, the land of Farore.

Before the Split
0 After Creation: The world is created by Din, Nayru, and Farore. They left their power hidden in the Golden Realm. After that they created oracles named after themselves to watch over the lands. Simultaneously the four Giants create Termina in a mirror dimension. They created four elements: Air, Earth, Fire, and Water to represent them. They also created a Light Force, and housed it in the Termina equivalent of the Golden Realm, a floating city lit by glowing orbs (see Sol).

100 AC: A portal opens between Termina and Hyrule for the first time. This is the time when the first Minish enter Hyrule.

190 AC: A boy named Gustaf is born.

195 AC: A war breaks out among the different races.

200 AC: The Minish, tired of the fighting, bring the Light Force and the Picori Sword out of their realm and give it to Gustaf. The Picori Sword has the power to divide oneself into four at will, because it is infused with the elements. Gustaf ends the war quickly and founds Hyrule.

250: The king dies. His son wishes to get all of his power, but only recieves a portion of it. A wizard says that his sister, Zelda 1, has it, so he confronts her and the wizard sets her into a never ending sleep. The Prince, angry, kills the wizard. He succeeds in taking the full power (the elements and the Light Force), but feels guilty, and sends her to a castle far to the north, where one day a chosen one will wake her. He gives the elements back to the Minish, who hide them across Hyrule. He gives the light force to his children. He also decides that every princess in the royal family will henceforth be named Zelda.

300: By this time the Hylians have met the Gerudo and the Sheikah. The Sheikah create a dark cult, and joined by some Gerudo, remake their bodies and become the Dark Interlopers. The Minish help the current king and create a mirror to the now empty Twilight Realm. They use this mirror to exile what Interlopers they find, who become the Twili. The ones who escape created a peaceful civilization in the desert, who were the Zuna. The remaining few Sheikah became the "shadows" of the royal family.

389: Link 1 and Zelda 2 are born.

399: The events at the present of Ocarina of Time happen.

Adult Universe
406: The events at the future of Ocarina of Time happen. Zelda sends Link back in time creating two timelines.

490: Link 2 and Zelda 3 are born.

500: The events in Minish Cap happen.

503: The events in Four Swords happen. Link 2 is the Hero of the Four Sword.

600: Ganondorf returns. Since there is no hero now, the goddesses create the Ocean King, who floods Hyrule. He had a temple on Mercay Island. The different species create new homes on the islands, and the Master Sword locked Ganondorf away.

Sometime in between: An evil being named Bellum tries to take over the Great Sea. The Ocean King tries to stop him and they end up being pulled into the Gap between Dimensions. However they also pull sixteen islands with them, giving rise to the Great Sea of Phantom Hourglass. Bellum takes over the Temple and the Ocean King is reduced to an old man living on Mercay Island. However, he sends a portal in the shape of the Ghost Ship to the main Great Sea, so whoever found it would be brought to help them.

885: Link 3 and Zelda 4 (under the name of Tetra) are born.

895: The events of Wind Waker happen. Link 3 is the Hero of Winds.

896: The events of Phantom Hourglass happen. Afterwards, the Ocean King is sent to Termina to investigate a strange Nightmare force, and is captured and put inside an egg. The sixteen islands, meanwhile, are returned to the main Great Sea.

900: The events of Oracle of Seasons happen. Note: Oracle of Ages couldn't happen in this timeline because 400 years in the past, the Great Flood hadn't happened and the geography would have been much different.

Child Universe
400: The events of Majora's Mask happen. Link 1 becomes the hero of time.

490: Link 2 and Zelda 3 are born.

500: The past events of Oracle of Ages happen.

510: The events of Twilight Princess happen. Link becomes the Hero of Twilight. Link and Zelda seal the Triforce back into the Golden Realm.

c.700: A mage named Agahnim learns of a powerful dark lord (Ganondorf) that was killed centuries before. He uses his magic to resurrect him, but he could only exist as Ganon. He commanded Agahnim to find him the Triforce, and he learned that it was again in the Golden Realm. Agahnim created a portal there, but by the time that Ganon had found the Triforce, others had entered the Realm as well. Since no one returned, the seven sages tried to seal the portal. Ganon fights against it, but eventually the portal is closed. Ganon continues to control Agahnim.

885: Link 3 and Zelda 4 are born.

899: The events of A Link to the Past happen. Link 3 becomes the hero of the Triforce.

900: The present events of Oracle of Ages happen.

After Fusion
900: For the explanation of the fusion, see above.

900: The events of Link's Awakening happen. This land is in fact flooded Termina (why else would there be a mirror Zelda?). The Wind Fish is what the Terminans call the Ocean King. The island didn't actually disappear, all Link saw was the portal closing.

901: Link returns to a different Hyrule, since it is a mixture of the Great Sea and the normal Hyrule. The events of Four Swords Adventures happen.

934: Link 4 is born.

948: The events of Legend of Zelda happen. (The same Zelda from the previous game is the one he rescues, who is much older than him.)

950: The events of Adventure of Link happen. Link 4 becomes the Hero of Hyrule.

Alternatives
If you don't accept the Fused Timeline theory, here is an alternate version.

Before the Split: OoT

Timeline A: MC > FS > TWW > PH > OoS > FSA

Timeline B: MM > TP > aLttP > OoA > LA > LoZ > AoL

I place Four Swords Adventures in the Wind Waker timeline because the Hyrule is surrounded by water on the map in this game. Legend of Zelda and Adventure of Link are placed in the Link to the Past timeline.
