A Possible "Origin" of Majora and the World

I recently came up with this interesting theory concerning the gods and the Earth(for all of you "Hyrule is not on Earth" people, DON"T ARGUE WITH ME, I believe Hyrule was on Earth and so does my forum, deal with it). Here it goes.

A long time ago, there was nothing but a single mass of energy. Then that energy exploded in a massive burst, and created two planes of existance: The heavenly realm of light, and a spaceous realm of darkness. The beings within heaven were composed entirely of energy, and would one day be known as deities.
      One such being, who would become known as the god of light and order, descended into the dark realm, and brought light in the form of the stars. Unbeknownst to this god however, was that he disturbed another energy being, who would become known as Majora, the god of darkness and chaos, who had been born with the darkness itself. It kept itself hidden, until it felt the time was right.
     Once light had filled the realm, three godesses, Din, Nayru, and Farore descended, and from the dust that had been scattered throughout the realm, formed celestial bodies(planets). They chose one, and blessed it with their light. They then created the triforce to keep the world in balance.
     It was then that Majora, the god of darkness made his move. When each of the godesses put their piece of the triforce together, Majora formed his own piece and placed it in the middle. This was the Dark Force, and when it touched the world with the triforce, it ripped two additional dimensions open within the world. There were now three known dimensions upon that planet. A world of light(where Hyrule would someday be), a world of shadow(the twilight realm), and a world inbetween where the three triforce pieces now rested(the sacred realm). The Dark Force now rested in the shadow world.
     This dark act called the god of light to action, and he waged battle with Majora, ultimately sealing him away within the very shadow world he helped created. Thus the world, the Earth, was protected.....for now.


Well, what do you think?

You do understand that because of your first paragraph you'll get no responses not to be mean.

I think Hyrule is a microchosm of earth. Not the real thing.

JoeLink

Oh C'mon! >:(

I am pretty sure that there are other fans who believe Hyrule was on Earth! The PLANET Earth, not earth as in dirt, or Earth as in a state of mind, but the PLANET Earth!

MagmarFire

There are probably others, but that doesn't prove that it actually existed on this planet.

Aside from that, though, I say it was rather interesting. It did provide some Zelda-feasible explanation for things that were thrown in at random.

Y'know, Charles Manson believed everyone was going to die except him and a few of his followers.

Point is, there is NO possible evidence to prove your theories, including this one, and there is ample evidence against them. Debating against you is pointless.

What did I say?

It's a representation of Earth.

You know, I have always considered the atomic crashes happening within a star to be more chaotic than the dark corners of the universe, where everything is at peace. But whatever, that is the concept humans have given to darkness due to their natural fear of it.

Gamewise, this gives a new dimension to Majora, which could as well expand the role of the fierce deity.

I think that because you're making up the Dark Force, pretty much any debate against this theory will win.  Really, unless Nintendo comes out with a game that uses a "Dark Force," you might as well have posted this in the Fan Works board.

No offense meant, but they are deluded.  There is no evidence that Hyrule existed on Earth, especially during the time you suggest in conjunction with the region of the world you believe it to had been in.

There is PLENTY of evidence to support Hyrule having been on Earth, you people are just refusing to believe it because all you see is a "seemingly-fictional" story within a game. ::) You don't look BEYOND that, like I do.

you people

What do you mean, "you people?"

I'll be honest, I'm one of the folks who doesn't believe Hyrule existed on Earth. I think the story of Zelda is just that: a well-written story. Looking beyond that, there are too many key differences between Hyrule and Earth, mainly the presence of magic, which has never been shown to exist on Earth at any time during all of history. The physical world of Hyrule differs from that of Earth, as well, in living creatures, plants, and even things like basic physics. Unless Earth underwent a majorly drastic supernatural transformation to rid itself of any and all traces of magic, the bizarre creatures and plants, and to change its physical properties, as well, I don't think it could have existed on Earth. Sure, it's fun to imagine it being on Earth at one point, but I don't think it's true. Call me a skeptic if you must, but that's my opinion.

Now, you say there is plenty of evidence to suggest Hyrule existed on Earth. Mind elaborating on that a bit?
What, you expect me to say something witty?

If there's as "plenty" evidence as you say, you'd have no problem telling us, would you? Do share it.

Hi no Seijin

According to him, Roman gladiators escaped Rome and formed Hyrule.  If this was true, and all of the events portrayed in the games actually happened, this would be far too large for the Roman Empire or any other society to ignore, and there is no record of any major disaster, natural or man-made, that could destroy Hyrule and only Hyrule.  And it's not even just the Roman Empire; we know at least several hundred years have passed within the Zelda series, and we do not have several hundred years worth of evidence that Hyrule has ever existed on Earth.  Throw in the fact that the Zelda series hasn't ended yet, the history of Hyrule, if it was established during the time of the Roman Empire, would most likely extend into the present day, and we definitely are not hearing about giant, tyrannical pigs trying to take over the world.

While by some coincidence Hyrule could exist on another planet, Hyrule definitely could not have existed on this planet.

And while there is "evidence" in the GAMES, there is no strong evidence on Earth. However, I would like to remind you that all of this posts have been off topic, so I suggest we drop this.

Yeah, okay.

And I DID give evidence in a previous forum. So look there if you can find it.

And there are too recordings of magic in history. Ever hear of the middle ages? 8)

Hi no Seijin

...

*headdesk*

Wow?  Really?  You're going to bring up the Middle Ages, a time where people didn't understand the world and developed supernatural explanations for events we now understand through science, as your definitive piece of evidence for magic?
