History of the Zelda Timeline Research: Interpretation: |
There is a wide panorama of views on the timeline that includes pretty much any order conceivable. Some of these ideas are better justified than others, but all of them arise from a personal view of the series. As such, with no official categorization of Zelda canon and no officially-released complete timeline, any personal view is as valid as any other view. This does not, however, mean that all views are equally justified. This is where timeline debates arise, and why they are so popular among timeline theorists.
The theories themselves are the fruit of these personal interpretations and the conclusions reached in debate. They are the most important products of timeline discussion and as such it is important for all theorists to carefully examine them before they attempt to draw conclusions on the quality of their content.
Compiled below is a list of all active timeline theories from the ZeldaWiki affiliate sites, for theorist reference and for easy and free access to all paradigms on the Zelda timeline.
2D Child Theories
There are no theories in this category at this time.
2D Adult Theories
Bitterlime's Theory
Adult: OoT-TWW/PH-TMC/FS/FSA-ALttP/OoX/LA-LoZ/AoL Child: OoT/MM-TP
-Hyrule of TMC is the result of the Koroks/Deku Tree's success. -The Dark Mirror of FSA is the Twilight Mirror of TP (but not the Magic Mirror of ALttP). -OoT is still the IW, but the OoT Ganon is not the one sealed in ALttP. That is FSA Ganon. -Knowledge of the Triforce, the Sacred Realm and the IW, resurfaced after the waterlevel drop inbetween FSA and ALttP, probably in written form (Book of Mudora). -The AoL manual is still canon, but doesn't happen at the start of the timeline. -The Trident of Power is the reason for blue Ganon. -There are two Ganon(dorf)s: the one from OoT and the one from the 2D games.
Lexxi’s New Hylian Kingdom Theory
Adult: OoT-TWW/PH-LoZ/AoL-OoS/OoA-TMC-FS/FSA-ALttP/LA Child: OoT/MM-TP
-The kingdom of LoZ/AoL is founded on the islands of the Great Sea, made larger and brought together by the Deku Tree and christened with the Triforce’s blessing at the end of AoL. -The Master Sword is either found or reforged in OoS/OoA. The Triforce returns to the Sacred Realm after OoS/OoA. -The Light Force is a powerful Force Gem introduced after the Triforce leaves the new Hyrule. -The Dark Mirror from FSA is the Mirror of Twilight from TP. -OoT is the IW of ALttP, and TP’s prolonged wars are the wars told as leading up to the IW. -The demon Ganon is one entity throughout the entire series, taking on multiple incarnations over time. -The Four Sword is sealed in the Sacred Realm by the maidens after FSA.
2D Split Theories
The Erimgard Timeline
Child: OoT/MM-TP-LoZ/AoL-OoS/OoA Adult: OoT-WW/PH-TMC-FS/FSA-ALttP/LA
-Hyrule of TMC is the result of the Koroks'/Deku Tree's success -The Dark Mirror of FSA is the Twilight Mirror of TP [but not the Magic Mirror of aLttP] -OoT is still the IW, but the OoT Ganon is not the one sealed in aLttP. That is FSA Ganon -The AoL manual is still canon, but doesn't have to happen at the start of the timeline
Hombre's Double ALttP Theory
Child: OoT/MM-TP-LoZ/AoL-OoX-ALttP(SNES) Adult: OoT-TWW/PH-TMC/FS/FSA-ALttP(GBA)-LA
-Hyrule of the Minish Cap is the result of the Koroks/Deku Tree's success -The Dark Mirror of FSA is the Twilight Mirror of TP [but not the Magic Mirror of aLttP] -The IW is a separate event, most likely taking place in between FSA and ALttP -LoZ takes place in Holodrum and the "region of Hyrule" is bigger than just the kingdom Hyrule.
