I read your time line and i totally agree with you on it man. Oh and props on beating all the games and good luck on AOL ~ Lord Harken

Thanks! :D. I just got minish cap yesterday so I've got to change it now, though:P. AoL is hard.--Magnus orion 19:36, 4 April 2008 (EDT)

Now that I think on it, I can't see any reason why FS and FSA couldn't be in the child line, the way the games are, it is entirely possible that they could be in either line. The Minish Cap would make a lot of sense where you have it. Since Vaati absorbs most of the Light Force, the knowledge of its existence is lost with time. That is a reasonable assumption. Perhaps, though you could explain exactly why you think that ALTTP, OoA/OoS, LA, LoZ, & AoL belong in the child line? By the way I think that you the order between those is right though. The Oracles definitly go between ALTTP and LA, no doubts there. All your ordering is great, but I don't understand why you have the games in those timelines. Could you explain?--Matt 03:55, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

I just played ALTTP last week and part of FSA just ten minutes ago. After going through the Eastern Temple I got a strong feeling of déjà vu. The terrain, layout, and key locations in FSA are very close to that in ALTTP. That makes the placement for FSA just before ALTTP highly likely. It may be that ALTTP takes place only a few centuries after FSA. I am not sure if Ganon excaped from whatever realm he was sealed in prior to FSA and got into the Sacred Realm (again) after FSA, this time getting the whole triforce but unable to excape. This certainly explains why Ganon has the cool trident in all of the proceding 2D games. This is just speculation. Any thoughts?--Matt 20:39, 19 April 2008 (UTC)


 * To answer both your questions, I still believe that Wind Waker goes right after OoT, as I see no evidence that it doesn't. It may be possible that this is not the case, but I just can't believe that the hero of time is assumed to be the same person everytime a boy named link shows up. As for the placement of FSA, which I never actullay played, I know that ganondorf apparently gets a trident in this game, and he turns into Pig Demon Ganon (my name for the blue ganon form), whose design is noticibly different than other ganon forms, but still remains consistent as more games in that timeline come out. ie. Ganon's form changed of OoT, but for FSA and the oracle games, which came out after OoT, the design remains the same as the aLttP. This is another reason I don't believe that the other arc is on the adult end, as TWW almost must be on that side and I don't believe that the Pig Demon could revert back to ganondorf. Also my timeline assumes that ganondorf/ganon can only be killed if he doesn't have the triforce with him (after events at the end of TWW), or is killed by silver arrows (not light arrows). It should be noted that since I don't see a reason why ganondorf loses the triforce in TP, I assume he doesn't and comes back to life some time after the master sword is removed (as it was returned to the pedastal) in time for his appearance in FSA. Since I never played FSA, from what I read ganon is not sealed at hte beginng of FSA, but your comment above seems to contradict that. Was he sealed at the begining of FSA, because if he was, than I have a theory which I think makes TP make more sense.--Magnus orion 21:18, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Very well, but there is still the matter of the entire triforce being in Sacred Realm in ALTTP. Sure I always thought that the triforce of power stayed with Ganondorf in TP. Although, the other two pieces just might have been in Link and Zelda the entire time. The triforce is only reunited when the one who split it in the first place, Ganon, is defeated. I fairly confindent that the there are only two possiblities for a timeline. Yours and mine. No others make sense. I can't see there being anything that will definitivly say which one is right. It all hinges on the Hero of Time story and whether people mixed up the others or not. Did the general people of Hyrule come to know the full extent of Link's time travel in OoT, or did a hero in green clothes appear seemingly whenever hyrule was in trouble and thought the the title Hero of Time meant that these heroes where the same one traveling in time -which of course was not true, butthey may have thought it. Think of the legends in the real world. They become much more elaborate and exaggerated with time. Is it not possible for the people to believe they are protected by the Hero of Time?--Matt 21:43, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

On Ganon escaping before FSA, I ment anytime before FSA, be it TP or whatever.--Matt 21:50, 19 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes I agree. Both yours and mine are the only ones I know to be possible, and it may be possible for the people to beielve they have always been protected by the Hero. The way I see it, there are now three problem games that make the timeline difficult, particularly because of the specifics of the events taking place in them. These would be aLttP, with its very specific backstory that doesn't quite fit any game exactly, AoL, with its confusing backstory that can only be remedied by putting it after aLttP, which negates its supposed explanation for why all the princesses are named Zelda, and finally, our recent friend TP, with its apparently symbolic or metaphorical ending (no one knows what happened. We can only speculate. :S)

Also, just as a side note: The worst timeline I have come across is what some have dubbed the youtube timeline, since a video was made of it by gametrailers or somebody and became a popular timeline on youtube. Anyway, the youtube timeline has a little bit of both yours and mine, has a split timeline, and decides to use the oracle games to reconnect the timeline... How is that supposed to work?!?! People suddenly have memories from two lifetimes?!?!? Oh well, there are a lot of silly people out there are the internet. I think your timeline is interesting in that it puts several games before wind waker (if I understand it correctly). My only question is that in AoL, ganon is clearly stated to be dead, but you have him back alive as ganondorf in The WindWaker to be killed again. Could you explain?--Magnus orion 22:06, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Well, whenever you lose your last life in AoL, Ganon returns, game over. It is only a matter of time before he is revived. I see no evidence that Ganon loses the triforce of power after LoZ. Somehow he comes back. His pig form body is destroyed of course, perhaps he fasions a new body, maybe from a stolen one, in the likeness of his beloved original. As long as he has the triforce of power, he always seems to find some way back.--Matt 22:42, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

My timeline, as it stands, is on my userpage.--Matt 22:44, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes, that youtube timeline does sound rather silly.--Matt 22:46, 19 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Alright, but in the end of the first game, which goes before LoZ, when you kill ganon, a pile of red dust lies on the ground with a glowing triangle on top, the triforce of power. Upon picking it up link walks into the next room to find zelda. Zelda and link hold the two triforce peices over their heads, (power and wisdom) and the game ends. In AoL, you retrieve the triforce of courage and the combined power of the triforces are used to awaken the sleeping zelda. So Ganondorf no longer possessed the triforce at that point. Also, if you look at my timeline and assume he can only be killed with silver arrows, he is never alive where he shouldn't be (brought back to life in the oracle games)--Magnus orion 22:49, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Two things to keep in mind. One LoZ and AoL are old games. When they were made the creators had no idea it would grow into what it is today. There is no telling how many times the changed their minds on their timeline. Two, silver arrows are said to be able to kill Ganon without fail. But, they are used in two games. In both Ganon dies and loses the triforce. The conditions in ALTTP and LoZ concerning his death are nearly identical. Yet ganon is revived and takes back the triforce of power prior to LoZ. By that same reasoning, it is entirely possible for Ganon to come back again.--Matt 22:59, 19 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Fair enough. Basically, you're saying that either an unadressed catastrophe happens and Ganon is revived again. So, I have a gut feeling that there should be a sequel to TP to explain the ending, and your timeline needs a Zelda III game. Both of our timelines are missing a game then. I really do like the idea of having some of the games before TWW, and am sick of people saying that the games go after and that the flood just goes away or something.

PS: by 'needs' I mean as a requirement to be accepted by absolutly everyone, not just yourself. For some people, simply stating there is a backstory isn't good enough.--Magnus orion 23:06, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Remember, in fantasy (as well as science fiction) no stays dead for long. Nintendo would always love to have another game with Ganon in it. It's what they do.--Matt 23:11, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Isn't there a new Wii Zelda game in the works? I'm sure heard about it somewhere. I have no idea on the plot though. Even if it wasn't announced, you can bet that they are working on one. They always seem to be working on one, ever since OoT came out.--Matt 23:16, 19 April 2008 (UTC)


 * i don't know. About your fatansy/sci fi comment, that isn't always true, but for Zelda it is. I would also like to ask you something else, concerning both our timelines and pretty much everyone elses, too! Its about Agahnim, who is stated to be an alter-ego of Ganon, in other words he is actually ganon. But how can ganon be in the light world and dark world at the same time, and could it be that this might be able to be addressed in someone's timeline in events from previous games?--Magnus orion 23:20, 19 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I think the phrase is a statement of a common occurence/plot element, not fantasy/scifi law.

When you beat Agahnim in ALTTP, Ganon comes out of his body. Ganon is already in the Dark World at the time. This means that Ganon was controling Agahnim somehow. It may be like Zant. Ganon promises ultimate power, says their wishes are now his wishes, but Ganon still takes advantange. So Ganon never possessed Agahnim until after he went to the Dark World. The portal at Hyrule Castle was open to the Dark World, yet still didn't permit a return trip. Ganon had no way out of the Dark World.--Matt 23:29, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
