This is my intake, i tryed to use the most of things that are connecting in game, only using key items and key names. Just one more thing, its alot of reading. i also had alot of maps, and compared stuff, but cant do that on here, if you want a copy of this with pictures and such just email me. ( and i know in twilight he doesnt get cast in stone that was a mistake)




The minish cap is the beginning of the series, for many reasons
This is where the red king is first mention, it explains why you find weird stuff under jars, also explains the story on the four sword, and links hat. The story ends with vaati being trapped inside the sword.

Ocarina of time is 2nd
This is the 2nd in the series. This creates two worlds that completely branch off from each other.
The first world which i will call "world A" exist in where ganon was sealed away by the sages, and you give princess zelda the ocarina, she then sends you back as a kid. This creates a world where ganon was sealed.
The other world is created when link is sent back in time and puts back the master sword. This creates a world where ganon is just starting his attempt on taking over hyrule. I also believe link is sent back be4 he receives the ocarina of time because zelda is still in her castle. When you receive the ocarina she has fled the castle. Zelda also has visions in her dreams, and also link might come to warn her of whats happening. The mark on links hand at the end would probably only be a mark proving who he really is to zelda. I also believe because zelda looks shocked to see you that its the first visit, and non of the stones have been received yet, or at least dins and nayru's.

The first storyline i will be explaining is World A. Now in World A, ganon is defeated, but there are some small notes that happened in Ocarina of time that that results in world A. First of all the sages, When ganon enters the sacred realm, he kills the sages protecting the triforce, and touches it causing it to split among the three (zelda link and ganon) This cause link to find 5 new sages to take there place.

Ocarina time World A1(Link's awakening)
Now this may seem odd, why this is here as 3rd, well ill first explain my main reason why i believe this. After ganon is sealed, zelda sends link back, but there also has to still be a link that exists in the world in which ganon was defeated. I believe this link ventured on a jon a boat, and was caught in a massive storm. I believe this storm was created through the wishing of the king and the flooding of hyrule. Why would this work you might ask, well Zelda is in full posseion of the ocarina of time, and with the leaders all having possession of the stones, they could of banded together and made the final wish to bury hyrule under the ocean. And link was caught in this storm stranding him on an island. This island Is being watched over and guard over wind fish (a whale) After saving the island, it vanishes into mist. Many years past. It isnt a dream, you dont loose a real boat in a dream... As the time line continues you will see more and more why this is 3rd.

Ocarina of time world A2(Windwaker)
This story takes place 100's of years after when the first wish was made to bury hyrule. I will start off with why this has to be. the Sages, they are mentioned, they are even depicted and drawn from ocarina of time, technically these sages do not exist in the timeline where link was sent back in time, and ganon has not been sealed. Only Zelda and ganon have there triforce part from the beginning, Link has to earn his and i believe he has to do so because he has been selected to be the new hero and he must prove it. In the end the king gains a final wish on the triforce saying he wants a future for link and zelda, and wishes for hyrule to be washed away, this does not mean it will remain underwater forever. Ganondorf is not defeated, he is only turned to stone, with the master sword stuck in him. To only be washed away with hyrule.

This one is important for it places links awakening into this part of the ocarina's world A'. In this adventure, its a vast see filled with ruined islands, you must collect time to eventually leading to a new sword, to defeat and evil that's draining power from the ocean king. There are so many similarities To this game and Link's awakening, The world is roughly the same, the encounter to the world and leaving is almost the same, It seemed like a dream, and it vanished into the mist, Also the ocean king is very familiar to the wind fish which watches over the island, i believe the island was submerge after link left due to the wish that zelda and the king made. Why it was sucked in, i believe it was because the gods could sense ganon's presence on the island and would not allow it. You return 100 years later and find it under water, still being watched by the same whale over the millennia.

Ocarina of time World A4(Zelda 2)
In the end of Windwaker, zelda and link depart to find a new island to start a new hyrule. Well they are searching They discover the north palace, surrounded by cliffs, they discover princess zelda the original, she was placed under a spell, to sleep forever, from a wizard and her younger brother, for he found out about the triforce and wanted it, but zelda refused, and so he put her in a deep sleep also killing the wizard. I believe this is A zelda that existed from the minish cap, she was left there for ages. Years pass and the land the starts to show again, eventually the world of hyrule rises out of the ocean fresh and "clean". Link goes on his journey to free zelda from her deep sleep, during this Ganon breaks free, and builds his army, for his attack on the north palace to retrieve his lost triforce piece of power. When zelda is awaken once again, she is attacked quickly, her only hope is to break the triforce of wisdom so ganon can not gain possession, during the process he gains the triforce of power and searches in the dungeons for the lost triforce pieces of wisdom( this explains why you fight in old hyrule and why he is in a dungeon guarding the last piece), Link already being equipped with the triforce of courage takes on the journey.
Now why this theory works, well first of all, the only thing zelda and link knew about of the old world, was the mere legend and the sages that once roomed there world a long time ago is now named after everything in this world, this would only go to show they were trying to honour the sages that once existed in protecting there land. I also believe that the sleeping zelda does not get reawaken until tetra has passed, because having two Zelda's at once would throw things off alot. Unless tetra was killed on the possession and of the triforce of power, passing the wisdom to the sleeping zelda, where she is revived and learns of this and splits her triforce apart but that's just guessing it there. And then the same link would remain. Or awakening the original zelda lead to awakening of ganon. But that's in between im not sure.duhhh

Ocarina of time World A5(zelda one)
In this adventure Zelda has split the triforce of wisdom and you must collect it to save hyrule. In the end ganon is killed, and link gains both the triforce shards, leaving him with a wish. Please remember this part. For this might be the final zelda in this time line. Leaving several gaps in between to work on which they have been doing for the many of years.
Now why this all works you may ask, why would this be the final zelda, well ``old hyrule`` is clearly controlled by ganon, and no one else ( no castle or nothing) this would suggest the land was washed away from a flood. Also explains why there is a new part of land added to the land of hyrule on the east side. And still some original locations, from the ocarina of time. You also have to collect 8 triforce shards which can easily be placed in all the same locations of ocarina of time dungeons and temples

Ocarina of time World B
Welcome to World B, i will explain in more detail on how this world is created. In the end of ocarina of time, she takes the ocarina of time sends link back to his time, I believe she sends him back in time to the point before he starts the quest for him. With the triforce of courage bearing on his hand and with link telling what is to be, and zelda having the ability to have dreams that depict the future it would show a different future for zelda, either way zelda finds out of the battle, and also finds out some way that link is allowed to have his time for himself, so he sets out on his journey, and zelda knowing even though hasn't taken place realizes she does not need the ocarina any more and gives it to link to protect and help him on his journey. For his lost friend. Now this is just a theory of mine, which explains link of the past a little bit, not alot and probably doesn't need to be included but yah neways. When link is traveling through the words he gets jumped and his ocarina stolen by majoras mask, technically this happened before the 3 day time looped happens, so when link eventually pushes the moon back and restores to the normal timeline, link looses everything including the ocarina of time because he should never actually retrieve ( this might explain the missing ocarina)
Now Well link is busy looking for his friend, Ganondorf, with out powers, is found out of his intentions and is sentenced to be sent to the sacred realm, at that moment he gains the triforce of power and breaks free, the 6 sages underestimating his power by not calling upon the 7th sage felled under ganondorf ( explains it in twilight) Ganon then escapes to the Twilight realm and bargains with the villain in twilight princess.
After all this link returns to hyrule and grows up the rest of his life until about 7 years ( i believe the ganon fight is has been and always been fated to happen at the same time of both time lines just with different endings, being that ocarina of time sealed him, and twilight princess When ganon recieved the sword in his chest, not 100% but i think he was sealed into the sword, you might see why later.
Majoras mask 2nd of course

Ocarina of time world B1(twilight princess)

In this story you must first collect shards for midna helm, in doing so you find out ganon is behind everything, so you must collect the mirror shards to enter the twilight world. In the end ganon is defeated and the gateway is destroyed.
The sages are the key here, many people have asked why aren't the sages the same from ocarina of time, but the symbols remain the same, well that's simple, since ganon was unable to enter sacred realm he never got the chance to destroy the original sages. Why is there only 6 sages when they try to cast him down, cause to them he is still human, he has no powers, its at the last moment he gains the triforce of power with the sages underestimating his powers, he breaks free. another key issue is that Link Already posses the power of courage, from his past adventure, this would create the imbalance forcing ganon to gain the triforce of power and princess Zelda gaining the triforce of wisdom , probably right around the time link returns to hyrule from his journey. This story also creates the legend of the golden land which I will explain later. The map it self is also very similar to ocarina of time, people say it has rotated, I don't think it has, I believe that Nintendo has just properly made the map in twilight princess to what they really wanted, there are many trademarks from the ocarina of time that are in twilight princess, some being abandon, some being more cultivated by people, this could of all happened in the 7 years, they could of abandon the temple of time hoping that ganondorf never finds it, many reasons why things are as they are. And just one more thing Epona exists as an adult horse, and link still remembers the song.

Ocarina of time World B2(Four swords GBA)

Zelda feels the seal weakening on vaatis, she knows of the legend for its passed down in royal family, mention in the minish cap right at the start. She brings link for protection, Vaati breaks out, Steals zelda, and Link is forced to pick up the 4 sword and save zelda. In the end vaati is defeated and he is returned to the sword, and link returns the sword to the pedestal.
Why this fits, you may ask well If Link was to use the sword that ganon has stuck in him, he would probably release ganon, link doesn't want that, knowing the power of the 4 sword he takes that instead and uses it to defeat vaati and save princess.

Ocarina of time World B3(Four swords GC)

A few years past, and dark clouds cover the sky, zelda feels the weakening on the vaatis hold, her and the sages band together to restrengthen it, as they open up the seal, a dark link comes out ( ganon i believe) and steals the sages. Link is then tricked by ganon to pull the four swords, to release vaati, ganondorf using vaati as a distraction well he creates the trident of power, underestimates the power of the four swords and is banished into the sword.
Why is it third on the list, well the story first of all does proceed after the first 4 swords for gba, says so right in the story at the start. Second of all He used vaati as a distraction, he also tricked link into pulling the 4 swords because ganon had only believed that the sword was useless against him, during the time, i believe he forges a trident of power, out of the original master sword that stuck in him. From twilight princess. The next key issue here are the sages, they are the main sages decedents or as they like to be called, maidens, they have the power of the sages. They are all surprisingly girls, when the predecessor's be4 them were all male.

Ocarina of time world B4(link to the past)
In this story zelda is encountered by a strange wizard who gains trust through the king and soon manipulates him and the guards into serving him, during the time he searches and captures 6 of the maidens leaving only zelda, you go rescue her collect 3 pendants then, enter the golden world which is turned into the dark world by ganons power, save the 7 maidens including zelda. And then defeat the wizard then defeat ganon. Collecting the triforce at the end.
The reason why it fits in this timeline, First of, the sages they are all still female. From four swords adventure. In the beginning zelda telepathically talks to you, as if she already knows who you are, and what your capable of. Hence after the 4 swords. In the last fight with ganon he uses the trident of power, which i believe was created from the original master sword. Now why would i imply the whole time that the master sword was destroyed to forge ganons weapon well it was the last weapon ganon had possession with. Also it was well proven that the power of the 4sword was strong enough to defeat ganon, also another point is that your collecting pendants that use to be worn by 3 heroes, in the end when you collect them all your wearing them all, so technically when you collect the new master sword, you have the power of all 4 with in you. Now why its at the end, well in the end, Ganon is killed, and for once and only once, does link finally come in possession of the triforce to make the final true wish the triforce has been waiting for. This also happens in the end of the other zelda timeline when ganon is killed and once again you gain control of the triforce for the final wish. Now as the golden world story that is explained at the start of the game, this story tells of the sages sealing a portal to the golden world with the golden power. Ganon also lives in this realm. I believe it is the sacred realm, where ganon has no powers but he continues to exist. I believe this is also the same Golden world that midna lives, for she herself describes it as beautiful place to be, an almost magical version of hyrule, or per say a dark world. This also explains why the 6 sages guard the mirror in twilight. And why ganon is trying to find a different method to escape the golden world. Now More onto the 4sword or new master sword. Why is it stored in the forests in the Nw of hyrule. Well that easy, The 4 swords has always been in a misty forest, always hidden from the world of hyrule, since the blade was called on twice in a short period of time, people discovered the forest,. Ganon is aware of the sword, and sends his guards into the forest searching for the sword. The story of the sword told by zelda is that it is hidden away only the hyrule family know if its location. This part of the map has also never been showed in any other zelda map in game. Now the finally last little link is the ocarina of time, it makes it appearance in the game as a normal flute, which seems to be poisoned of a boy, a grandson of a old man. Who disappeared. I am not saying this is the skull kid, but it makes sense on why he has possession of it, from majoras mask. I only believe it is the skull kid because he is one with nature and what's around him, and all he does is play for animals on a tree stump, other past skull kids did this as well. This also brings in another key item that easily links this golden world to the twilight, and that is the magic mirror you recieve from the old man, coincedence i think not.

Ocarina of time World A&B collideLegend of zelda: oracle of seasons, oracle of ages

Now i understand these two games are being played at the same time, i believe they are both at the end of the timeline, they would fit my timeline on both ends because ganon is dead at the end of both, i believe oracle of seasons was created for the windwaker ( world a), because it suites the timeline with weather, now oracle ages suites more to the end of majoras timeline (world b) because you do alot of traveling between time in this section. In the end you must beat both stories to see who is really behind it, you find out its ganons loyal servants twinrova, They are trying to resurrect him with the 3 flames, conviently enough my timeline puts ganondorf dead at the end of them both thus creating a place for oracle of seasons and ages at the end of both. Apparently it was suppose to be a three game release but they stuck it in two. I believe this is the game that reconnects the zelda time line, destroying that time paradox that was created in ocarina of time. And that 3rd release, was probably going to be the end of it all. But nintendo decided to wait.

...WOW. Just WOW!!!! SOOOOO CONFUSING TO THINK ABOUT!!!!

what about majoras mask?

AND phantom hour glass
