Okay. I realize now that I was kind of stupid in only telling you the timeline and not why. I don't know, it was 10 at night and I guess I wasn't thinking. So anyways, now I have the detailed timeline, and I hope you like it somewhat.
Skyward Sword
This is probably the only thing we'll all agree on. Skyward Sword comes at the beginning of my timeline because, as we should be aware, is supposed to have the creation of the Master Sword and the establishment of the Royal Family. There's not much to say because the game hasn't come out yet.
Minish Cap
This comes after Skyward Sword because the Legend at the beginning of The Minish Cap says that a hero came from the sky and they used the sword he had to seal the darkness in the chest. I originally thought that meant they had put the Master Sword in the chest, but that would mean the Four Sword would also be the Master Sword. So I'm guessing that the Skyward Sword will become the Four Sword.
Four Swords
This comes after Minish Cap because the gems from the Minish Cap are seen in the beginning scene of the game. That and The Minish Cap showed the forming of the Four Sword.
Four Swords Adventures
This comes after Four Swords because with the beginning legend, it tells about both what happened in Four Swords and Minish Cap.
I think this is an appropriate time to talk about Ganondorf. When you go to the Lost Woods, there are Deku Scrubs that talk about Ganondorf. They say how Vaati is old news and Ganondorf is new. This makes me think that this is the first time in the timeline that we see Ganondorf.
A Link to the Past
This comes after Four Swords because first, geographical evidence. Their areas are almost exactly the same. The only real difference is that there are more temples in Four Swords Adventures than A Link to the Past. Second, they both have the Dark World. At the end of A Link to the Past, the Triforce says that Dark Realm would disappear after Ganon was dead and he hadn’t died in Four Swords Adventures so it wouldn’t have disappeared then.
Oracle of Seasons/Oracle of Ages (Past)
As you can see, I described this now with Oracle of Ages (Past). I had originally thought this, but I put it in to help prevent confusion. I think Oracle of Seasons comes after A Link to the Past because you talked to the Triforce at the beginning of it like you could at the end of A Link to the Past. This also explains how Ganon was able to return in future games.
Link’s Awakening
This game comes after Oracle of Seasons because I think that Link is trying to get back to Hyrule after he defeated Ganon. While sailing back he runs into Koholint Island.
The Legend of Zelda
This game comes after Link’s Awakening because A Link to the Past is the prequel to The Legend of Zelda and the Link from Link’s Awakening is the same Link so this goes after those.
Adventure of Link
This comes after The Legend of Zelda because this is its intended sequel.
Oracle of Ages (Present)
This comes after Adventure of Link because Adventure of Link also has the Triforce not dwelling in someone so you can talk to it.
Ocarina of Time
This comes after Oracle of Ages because they both had Koume and Kotake, but she dies in Ocarina of Time. At the end of Oracle of Ages, we don’t know really whether their dead or not. We just see a bunch of shadows coming in and Ganon appearing. We know they died in Ocarina because they had halos over them.
There are two things I think I should talk about here. First is the way the timeline could be linear. I think that when Zelda sent you back in time, she sent you back a little before when you first draw the Master Sword. The Door of Time could have been opened by the Gods or Rauru just to let you out. When you go talk to Zelda, you don’t just talk about your quest. You also tell Zelda Ganondorf is coming to get her so she can escape. Here’s the confusing part. I think there were two Links between when you became a kid again and when Zelda sent you back. So pretty much while one Link is saving Hyrule, the other is not really known and probably not in Hyrule.
The second thing is how Ganondorf is now human. I think that maybe Koume and Kotake used a different method of bringing him back and he was human. He still could turn into Ganon when he needed, though.
Majora’s Mask
This comes after Ocarina of Time because it was meant to be Link searching for (possibly) Navi.
Twilight Princess
This comes after Majora’s Mask because of geographical evidence. It’s obviously not with Majora’s Mask, but with it’s prequel, Ocarina of Time. But this is only if you use the Gamecube map, though. The only significant difference I want to point out is the Zora’s River. I think that there actually are two rivers. You can see them both in Four Swords Adventures and A Link to the Past. I think one of the rivers dried up or got closed up by rocks and a different one sprung between these two games. When we go from Ocarina of Time to Twilight Princess, the before dried spring reemerged and the other one dried somehow. There’s also the fact the Temple of Time is still around. It’s in ruins now, but it’s still the Temple of Time.
Wind Waker
This comes after Twilight Princess because Twilight Princess isn’t covered in water (obviously) and it has the Temple of Time, so this isn’t one of those games that takes place after the flood like Spirit Tracks.
Phantom Hourglass
This comes after Wind Waker because in the beginning, it tells about how Tetra and Link met.
Spirit Tracks
This comes after Phantom Hourglass because you can find the grave of Linebeck.
Obviously, there will be disagreement with this. There always is. So tell me, what could I have missed? What confused you about it? But please, don’t say things like “Wow, you’re wrong,” “You must be stupid,” or “You must be 11.” Let me get something straight, I’m 15, I had all A’s last year, and how can I be wrong if there is no right answer?
