Legend of the fairy

1. It is said that long ago, a boy garbed in green known as the Hero of Time saved
   this land. However, on a certain island, there is also the story of the fairy
   who saved that hero...
2. It is said that the Hero of Time met the fairy in the midst of his travels.
   The fairy appeared before the Hero, who had found himself lost in darkness.
   With a mystic power, it would float in midair, dancing above his head like a
   burst balloon.
3. After the fairy handed the lost Hero a map, it flew off as quickly as it had
   appeared. Better able to foresee places of danger than the Hero, the fairy
   marked them on a map. The Legend goes on to say the quest of the Hero of Time
   was saved by this plump figure...
4. Fairies live for thousands of years... but this odd fairy was a bit different.
   This mystical fairy was born near a lake, and when he met the Hero, he was but
   35. Beyond that, there is little known about that fairy...
5. The little-known Legend of the Fairy's 35th Birthday
   On one island they celebrate one's 35th birthday with a green coat and red
   pants. They do this in the hopes of becoming like the legendary fairy, Tingle.

Now what we have here is something found in the TotG. This is the legend of the fairy. (LotF for short).

This is the biggest factor some people are using for saying Linearism exists.

Now some consider this as an easter egg but I don't. In the game called Tingles freshly picked rose coloured ruppee land (TFPRCRL) you can learn about Tingle. He lives on Ruppees and if he runs out of them he will die. This explaines the thing in FSA (Tingle can live for hundreds of years) You may be wondering what I'm getting at now so I'll explain.

In TFPRCRL you also learn that Tingle can universe warp for the cost of 10000 Ruppees. If Tingle can indeed Universe warp as shown in this game then that's how the legend of the Fairy came to be shown in/on the TotG.

I'm open to any comments on this.

TFPRCRL can be used to account for the Legend of the Fairy in TWW.
FSA can be used to account for the Palace of the Four Sword in ALttP.
LoZ/AoL's "Magic Sword" (which, in some official art, is the Master Sword) can be used to account for the Master Sword in the Oracles.

Lex is that thing in your sig your timeline? Wow ALttP takes place in the child Timeline making me think that you think OoT =/= SW.

It's my "ignoring developer statements" (except for a split) timeline.

So it IS your timeline or it's ONE of your timelines?

I'm confused.

I don't have a timeline. I'm playing with a bunch of ideas right now.

ahh.

Your Avatar and title are awsome.

That could be taken into account, as well as save Nintendo's butt when it comes to canon.

(It could also explain Tingle's: "Those same green clothes... and that same green hat" remark in WindWaker.)

i believe that WW did take place after MM right now... i really do believe that the games are much more reliable than interviews with people that always change their mind.
elaborate more on this universe warping ability please. i doubt that tingle could enter a different timeline that originally couldn't have been entered unless the master sword was released.
anyway, the legend of the fairy looks like it wasn't written by tingle, so that just about contradicts the idea of tingle entering another universe and writing the document.

As I just said in the other thread, since Termina is a wholly separate world with its own timeline, it doesn't belong to Hyrule's Child or Adult Timelines. Because of this, it could have an effect on either of them, either with someone coming to Termina from one of those timelines or someone from Termina going to either of those timelines, without contradicting the split timeline.

and what proof do you have that it isn't in the child timeline? link entered it as a child and exited it as a child. do you think he found another exit somewhere that would have took him to the adult timeline? yeah right

Termina exists in both timelines since it existed before the split thus it continued to exist after the split. And besides the Tingle Turner is an eater egg and I highly doubt Nintendo would put important timeline related elements to be available to only a small amount of players. But that might be just me...

termina would be in both timelines, yes, but it would have also been affected by your guys sort of split, and anything coming out of it wouldn't have any relationship with MM link, because the adult timeline termina wouldn't have it happen.

It's as I thought before!
Tingle is able to warp through different universes in his DS game (which I keep forgetting the name of).

This explains how we see him in most of the recent games he's been in. He's able to practically live forever through the consumption of rupees, and using them, can appear in many different worlds. This explains how he exists in WW (Adult TL), despite knowing of the Hero in MM (Child TL).

You know, just like that Tingle game proves, everything Tingle related is just a goddamn easter egg. Not everything mentioned in game has to have some timeline relation. Think of the people who don't theorize timelines. Tingle would have been removed from the game long ago if he wasn't so popular in japan. Using Tingle as a last resort to prove a linear timeline is laughable.

thats just an opinion... like i said before, a random picture like the mario paintings in the courtyard are easter eggs. a 5 page document in the tower of the gods isn't.
also, tingle didn't write the legend of the fairy, so that disproves the tingle warping and writing the document theory.

Excellent job Pinecove!

Now do we agree that Termina exists with similar time mechanics like Hyrule?
Like if you go back three days in Termina with the song of time, did Hyrule go back three days as well? Did Hyrule experience the same three days over and over again without noticing?

If yes, then Termina does not exist in the adult timeline. It was crushed by the moon because in the adult timeline no green garbed boy went to save that land. Meaning that Majora's Mask is not some separate part of the split timeline. It simply goes after Ocarina of Time in the child portion.

Where does it say that Tingle didn't write the Legend of the Fairy? The warping proves that Tingle met the hero from OoT in the child timeline and then warped to tWW time where the legend was discovered. In other words I don't think it matters who wrote the legend. TRCRL also proves how Tingle can live forever and why he is so greedy when it comes to rupees.
