An Unconventional Timeline
Before I begin, I think it is imperative to note that I do not believe in or endorse this timeline. I was just kind of screwing around and seeing if I could put the Zelda games in an unconventional order that still made sense, and I think I did a pretty good job of that. But yeah, this is pretty much just for fun. So, here is my Unconventional Timeline Theory:
------------------------[WW - PH] - [LoZ - AoL] - [ALttP - LA]
-----------------------/
[MC - FS - FSA] - [OoT
-----------------------\
------------------------MM] - [TP] - [OoX]
Okay, the most obvious part from convention is putting FS and FSA before OoT, but here is my reasoning behind it. Obviously Minish Cap happens. If there is any game that can be proven to be before OoT, it's MC, so that's not so strange. Here's where things get tricky. FSA is the only thing I really wanted before OoT, but if FSA is there, then so must FS and MC be. The reason FSA is there is because of how the Gerudo are treated. They are viewed as a good people, because people ponder how the King of Evil could have possible come from them. Ganondorf takes the Triforce and becomes Ganon, and then gets sealed in the Four Sword. Sometime between FSA and ALttP, the Four Sword gets moved to the Sacred Realm. Now, because of Ganondorf's actions in FSA, the Gerudo are now looked down upon, which explains the Hylians hatred for them in OoT.
In OoT, a new Ganondorf is born and then the events of OoT take place, including the seal on the Sacred Realm.
On the adult side, I could find no way to move WW and PH, so they had to stay there. This is the same Ganondorf from OoT. He gets killed in the end but the spirit of Ganon lives on. Sometime between WW and LoZ he is either given a new body and takes the ToP, or a new body is given to him when he takes it. Ganon is killed by Link in LoZ. Then AoL happens. With the Triforce now complete it is sent back to the Sacred Realm, where Ganon from FSA has escaped the Four Sword and claims the Triforce. He can't get out of the Sacred Realm because the seal from OoT is still on it. Then ALttP happens, Link leaves and LA happens.
On the child side, this is pretty conventional. There wasn't much I could move around. The only thing that jumps out at me is that OoX is a different Link than ALttP Link, which some people already believe anyways.
So, what does ZU Theory think of this?
