Way too coincidental and chancy for me.

Well that was just one tiny island in the world where the Hero was honored.
Ocarina of Time explains where he got his hat from too: He was raised by Kokiri, and they wear hats. There's no need for a pre-OoT game that features an explanation of the hat, because he had to wear one while living with the Kokiri.

Oh, sure enough that Mirror is probably done for. But my point was that the ruler of the Twilight was the only one who could destroy the mirror. Since the Twilight people are descended from the Dark Interlopers and they've been passing down this magic for a while now, I'm pretty sure that the Interlopers had the same magic as the Twili. Thus, the ruler of the Dark Interlopers could have just as easily destroyed the Mirror of Twilight as Midna did. Which if their were only one, then why wouldn't he have just done that? Certainly would have saved his people a lot of suffering and despair. It is purely theory, but I feel that it is at least somewhat supported by in-game evidence. Even if only indirectly.

I don't think there would have been that big dramatic scene with Midna destroying the mirror if there was another one hiding somewhere.

Well, it's a bit of a stretch, but at the end of FSA, Ganon was sealed with the Four Sword. Now, here's where the stretch comes in. This explains the idea of the Seal War, but it doesn't explain how Ganon got from the Four Sword to the Sacred Realm.
|
That doesn't explain the Seal War.
The Seal War talks of Ganondorf entering the Sacred Realm, touching the Triforce, turning into Ganon, and then being cast into the Sacred Realm [which he has turned dark] and having a seal cast on it.
The most important part of the Seal War is not that Ganon is sealed, but that the Sacred Realm is sealed. There has to be a seal on the Sacred Realm for aLttP to happen, and this seal is not cast in FSA.

However, I do have a theory on that one, I just completely forgot to leave it out of my initial post. I'm sure you could agree with me that the Four Sword shares some similar traits to the Master Sword. For example, you need it to banish evil. It was the only weapon that could have sealed Vaati in both FS games. It's possible that they both have same origins. After all, as far as I know there has been no definite origin story on the Master Sword.
|
We already know the origins of both though.
aLttP's manual [literal japanese translation, not the corrupted NoA one that changed the story] states that it was created long ago because the people were warned by the gods to create a weapon in case an evil one ever got the Triforce.
OoT adds to that, and says it is also the key to the Sacred Realm.

The only real thing we know about it is that it's a key to the Sacred Realm, which if the Four Sword is similar in origin to the Master Sword could just as well lead to the Sacred Realm, explaining both the Seal War, and the fact that Ganon is sealed in the Sacred Realm at the beginning of ALttP. I don't really expect it to convince you, as it is rather weak, but is is a possible explanation with at least some in-game evidence, although admittedly very little, to answer your question.

See above.
And also, as I said: It's not all that important that Ganon is sealed, what's important is that the Sacred Realm has to be sealed, which doesn't happen in FSA.
And yes, the Four Sword is in the Dark World in the GBA verson of aLttP. But that doesn't imply that it teleported him there. That implies that it was moved there by someone...especially since it's shattered.
The Picori Blade/Four Sword was brought by the Picori to save the people from darkness. Nothing is said about it having a connection to the Sacred Realm, and I'm fairly confident it doesn't.
Also, welcome to ZU Theorizing
I like you, because you're pretty good at debating and giving facts, and you're not afraid to move your timeline around a bit if people show you where something's incorrect. I think you'll do well here.
