Hyrule Historia: Partial Translations Now Available
Posted on December 20 2011 by Mases Hagopian
Our friends over at History of Hyrule have posted some partial high quality scans of the Hyrule Historia book that is set to release tomorrow in Japan. The book has stirred up a lot of controversy as it is rumored to be a reveal of the Zelda Timeline.
While we don’t have too much information just yet, Beno from the Legends Alliance forums has posted a translation of some of the pages. If you make the jump, you can see the high quality scans as well as Beno’s translation. While there isn’t anything major revealed just yet, this does give us a previous of the level of detail that will be included in the Hyrule Historia book. This particular page focuses around the child ending of Ocarina of Time, as well as some material from Majora’s Mask.
Below is the partial translation of the image you see above…
Link, the Hero of Time, was victorious and Ganon’s seal was successful. He returned to his original time and met with Princess Zelda, and a different history was spun.
Another History of the Hyrule Kingdom
Period of the Hero of Time (Child Era):
Ocarina of Time:
The Hero of Time’s Return
By rewinding the time of his 7 years sleep with Zelda’s power, Link returned to his original time.
He now went to Hyrule Castle’s courtyard. Princess Zelda was watching Ganondorf as before when they first met.
Notice of the Future
Link told Princess Zelda what will happen in the future. She listened and so to prevent Ganondorf from entering the Sacred Realm, entrusted Link with the Ocarina of Time and instructed him to leave with it.
This time, the back of Link’s hand was shining with the proof of the Triforce of Courage. Finished with the battle with evil from the future world, the hero carried the burden of the secret journey.
Majora’s Mask:
Link’s Departure
Link borrowed Epona from Lon Lon Ranch. And after several months of wandering looking for his past friend Navi, he was lost in a mysterious forest where there was a way to the parallel universe called Termina.
Right side column text:
The Hero’s Return
The place where Link returned was the Temple of Time. The Master Sword remained stuck before the time the Sacred Realm was opened. His friend Navi disappeared into the sky, and Link walked into the new history.
Triforce of Courage
The proof of courage was carried on the back of Link’s hand. Since Ganondorf was sealed away with the Triforce of Power, the Triforce remained with the chosen ones of the Gods.

History of Hyrule will be getting their copy of the Hyrule Historia book shortly and will likely have partial scans up after they get their hands on it. I too have ordered a copy and should be getting it over the course of the next week or so. Stay tuned for all the latest information in regards to this highly anticipated book.
