Good idea or bad idea?

[Harashi]

If you notice in zelda games Ganon is never quite killed, always sealed or has his body shattered. So I was wondering, when link sealed Ganon with the master sword would it have been better had he have run and let him drown? Of course that would ruin the ending but also Ganon is a very powerful sorcerer so may have escaped causing sooner problems. But the sealing can cause future problems also.

Hmmm... I would think with the power gannon has, he could easily escape the drowning, but that is a good question to ask.

I'm pretty sure he would've survived. If he can't be killed the way he was stabbed in OOT and TWW, then he's not gonna drown either.

As long as nobody nearby has the Silver Arrows, it's better to seal him. It will at least stop him from causing any trouble in the near future, including preventing Zelda's and Link's escape. THEY would've drowned.

Silver Arrows?!

[LadyNintendo]

The only thing that can killl Ganondorf (and possibly Vaati). They are not the Light Arrows.

Thats cool that theres  sliver arrows

[TP Zelda]

theres a new arrow? coooool

[Vaati]

I don't get all this "sealing them away" stuff with Ganon, Vaati,...etc. If you don't want them to bother Hyrule again, just kill 'em for Din's sake!

[LadyNintendo]

No, Silver Arrows are not new! They appeared in the original TLOZ and ALTTP! Never again after that.   They're the only thing that can kill pure evil (no, both swords are only capable of repeling evil and Light Arrows can only stun them.)

That's what they get sealed away all the time. Without the Silver Arrows, they cannot be destroyed (and that still isn't a 100% guarantee).

oh i didnt no they excisted

[LadyNintendo]

Which games did you play?

[Mysterious F.]

She's right, only Silver Arrows could kill them. In fact, it could be an evolved form of the light arrows, just far more powerful. Also, they could prove that LTTP and the original two games were the last in the timeline, because it would surely take time for such powerful weapons to be made. Also, they probably had the help of the full Triforce to be created, seeing as OOT, MM, and TWW didn't have the complete version. Also, it is apparent that MM had Light Arrows, but the Light Arrows were made by the Wind Tribe, most likely without the Light Force/Triforce thing.

i play

Minish Cap
Majora's Mask
Ocarina of Time
(Somtimes a Link to the Past it's my bros)
and
Wind Waker

No wonder you don't know about them yet. Those games are newer ones, so the Silver Arrows are replaced with weaker ones for a challenge possibly.

Also, it is apparent that MM had Light Arrows, but the Light Arrows were made by the Wind Tribe, most likely without the Light Force/Triforce thing.

I think you mean TMC.

It could be the Silver Arrows and the Light Arrows are related, but don't forget that the Silver Arrows are a special type of arrows, while the Light Arrows are common arrows with a spell cast upon them. Could be a permanent version of the Light Arrows.
