Re: "The wind... it is blowing"

What a great line for Ganondorf and the game. I think there's so many different possible answers; instead of asking for only one, you should come up with your own. There are so many different interpretations and so far, they all sound valid to me. My favourite interpretation is similar to the "death is coming for him" interpretation.

Link has always had a connection to Farore, who breathed life into the world who could be thought of something like a wind goddess. WW Link has a particularly strong connection to the wind. To Hyrule, Link has always been a hero and the wind always brought life, but for Ganondorf, Link and the wind have always meant death. He might have been stating that not only has Link brought death to him, he has also brought about the death of Hyrule in favour of a barren world like the desert he grew up in.

He's saying that Link isn't a revitalizing hope for the new world, he only keeps it barren by sacrificing Hyrule. To Ganondorf, Hyrule was vibrant and full of life while the Great Sea is dangerous and the poeple can only live simply in the shadows of their former glory. The thing is that Ganondorf spent all his time on the Great Sea stuck in his tower lamenting the old world. He doesn't know the Great Sea like WW Link, who sees that it has it's own beauty and that it too has life so he can't see why Link would defend it.
