Title: OoT Link -> TWW Link?
Post by: Jack on July 15, 2005, 10:44:27 PM
I'm writing a new mystery/theory article on a familial connection between the Link of Ocarina of Time and the Link of The Wind Waker. If you don't mind, I'd like some opinions on whether you think there is/isn't a relation between the two and why.

I don't think that there's a relation between the two because after OoT, Link was stuck in Termina, right? So even if Link married and had kids, they'd all be in Termina. What I mean is, that the great flood happened in Hyrule, and the survivors of that flood were on the mountian tops of Hyrule, So I think that OoT Link has no connection with WW Link. (Just WW Link's parents just so happened to name him Link, and when he reached adult-hood, he just so happened to pull the Master Sword and slay Ganon!!) But that's just my say. I might be wrong.

There is no direct proff that Link was trapped in Termina....

Well, he fell into a giaganticly long and deep hole that I truly doubt he could climb back out of. So I figure he was trapped inside Termina.

You mean fall back to Hyrule? I highly doubt it.

Link isn't trapped in MM. He returns to Hyrule at the end. Besides, Link's FAMILY shield in TWW was wielded by the Hero of Time, the King refers to him as 'the' Hero, Ganon refers to him as the 'Hero of Time reborn', and Outset Island is the only island with that certain tradition.

How I know that? Because it says, quite clearly, on a certain island in the prologue.

how can link return to hyrule if there is because the only road to get to termina is falling in the abyss in the lost woods. How can link even with his horse get to the lost woods at the end of majora's mask

Post by: Evilslayer on August 26, 2005, 03:54:35 AM
How is not important? The fact is that he DO return! They show it at the end of MM, and if Nintendo says he return he do return.

Besides, we do not know if it's the only way back.

its a slim chance, but think about it. the hero of time held the tri-force of courage. and somehow so does the hero of wind! and it is possible that the hero of times mother had had another son, or that the hero of times dad had a brother whos wife had a son, and so on and so fourth. there is a strong possibility that the two have some sort of blood connection! im sure barry will dismiss these theorys but i dont mind, i made my point clear. ;D

that could b true but don't forget the gods chose who/what gets a part of the Triforce
Title: Re:OoT Link -> TWW Link?
Post by: Zelda Veteran on January 26, 2006, 04:34:28 PM
yea thats true. still i dont think they would give it to just some random person. they would choose someone with potential.

going back 2 the topic, i really think the grandmother is Impa. possible.
Title: Re:OoT Link -> TWW Link?
Post by: Zelda Veteran on January 28, 2006, 08:42:19 PM
you have a good point. although it would take more research i think you may be on to somthing!

(sorry about trailing away from the subject jack)

He could have gotten out of the hole that led to termina. What about every time you jump in a hole in OoT, Link isnt scrambling up the walls, he just floats right out, the same, or something equally magical could have happended. And he got out at the end anyway. I think the were related.

wait a sec......link still had the ocarina of time right? do u think he still had the songs in his memory that transport him to the temples? he could have just played one of those and got transported back to hyrule
Title: Re:OoT Link -> TWW Link?
Post by: Zelda Veteran on January 31, 2006, 02:45:05 PM
He could have used one of the masks to get out. or mabey the four giants used thier magic to put him back! heck, These games are so magical, anything could have happened...
Title: Re:OoT Link -> TWW Link?
Post by: DarkZelda on January 31, 2006, 07:07:08 PM
i personally think that he somehow, even though he does not remember being the hero of time or whatever, got ahold of one of the transport songs
Title: Re:OoT Link -> TWW Link?

Why do you think he can't remember? He could remember the other times he went back in time, couldn't he? And if he still can't remember, tell me why he remembers enough to decide to return to Zelda.

And he can't have used the transport songs. He can't transport WITH Epona, and he DOES ride her at the end. ::)

ok, i nhave not finished the game. i assumed that he forgot being the hero of time bcause he was sent backwards. my mistake

Post by: Marcamillian on February 22, 2006, 12:51:21 AM
hm.... MM might not have even happened.( im just putting it out there) It could be a LA kinda thing where we dont know if hes dreaming it or not. This would lend itself to the characters lookin gthe sae but being different. bt still its just a theory.

I dont think that hero of winds is related to the hero of time exactly. I vaguely remember that he may be related to the knights of hyrule. I like te theory that grandma is related to impa. Living in kakaro village, she could have moved up death mountain to survive and had children, possibly with a knight of hyrule. One thing i would say is that Impa was a shiekra, and about 6 foot tall.... grandma, despite the effects of age.... is nowhere hear 6 foot.

sorry for the double post.... bt it was too intrigueing to let pass... who cares where Link decends from.... bt how in gods name is TINGLE still alive... i cant imagine him reproducing with a  female (and god knows i dont want to) perhaps he has found a way to become immortal in his quest to become a fairy

He is attracted to females. He has a thing for Aryll. Heheh, if Link finds out...>:]

To be fair from all the other evidence pretty much proves there is no relation between WW Link and OoT Link. However explain one thing that keeps my confidence in the fact they are related, only people with Links bloodline can remove the Master Sword. I mean if anyone could do it then why didn't they send Ocra on a rescue mission I mean he has more experiance than some kid and although he is realy old he still has supurb swords skills. Lets face it he would stand more chance in the Forsaken Fortress than some random kid.
Title: Re:OoT Link -> TWW Link?
Post by: Evilslayer on February 23, 2006, 09:31:59 AM
It says that only those worthy of the title of the Hero of Time can wield the Master Sword. Not included the poem on the pedestal in ALttP (which really only says 'Keep the knight's line true') there's no mentioning of bloodline.

And Orca can't go because of an injure he's suffered. He's also too old to be the Hero, anyway.
Title: Re:OoT Link -> TWW Link?
Post by: Shadow Ganon on February 23, 2006, 09:35:56 AM
To be fair I've never seen anything from the games apart from WW MM and OoT and I was only using Ocra as a reference.
