What happened to Termina?

We all know Hyrule is flooded and left on the bottom of the sea, but what happened to Termina? Was it flooded too? Hyrule and Termina are at close if not exactly the same elevation, so wouldn't Termina be flooded too? Could it be the world in Phantom Hourglass? Oh, and don't say it's in a different dimension, 'cause if Link can get to it, water can too. Please let me know what you think!   :D

This doesn't make any sense.

And how would you know what Hyrule and Termina's relative elevations are?

Though, I have to say, Termina being the world in PH is a very interesting theory.

Master Dragmire

Hmm..
But that would mean Link had to swim to get there in MM.

Besides, where does that leave new Hyrule in LoZ?

I'm assuming north of the Great Sea covered in TWW. For some reason, I've always imagined it being north, so there's about a 12.5% chance that it's correct.

EDIT: I just realized I used the word wrong instead of correct. My bad.



Advanceshipping and Rion had better be Chuck Norris approved.

Commodore Axilon

That's the direction they sailed at the end of TWW, so I would assume so.

MagmarFire

Wait, really? Still, then again, they did set sail from the Outset dock, I think; and the dock was facing north, then, right?



Advanceshipping and Rion had better be Chuck Norris approved.

Commodore Axilon

Right. And they were going to "follow the wind" or something and that's the way the wind was blowing.

Master Dragmire

Also, the sea is to the south in LoZ
At least that's how it seems.

But it could very possibly be to the North.

I meant all Link had to do to get to Termina was fall a little bit and walk down a corridor, so why can't the water that flooded Hyrule go down the same path. As for the elevations for both for Hyrule and Termina, Link only fell a few feet down a hole in a tree stump. It couldn't be that far down otherwise Link would've been hurt from his fall. One could argue that the deku flower thingy he fell on was "soft" and broke his fall, but it probably wouldn't make that much of a difference. Hope that answers your question!    :)

Commodore Axilon

He fell through a portal to another dimension.

Unless you're proposing that Termina is somehow underneath Hyrule.

Master Dragmire

Your neglecting the fact that Termina is another dimension.
When Link is falling, he isn't just falling. He's passing through to Termina.
Notice the clocks, and other imagery as he falls.
Clearly not just a hole.

I'm not neglecting the fact Termina is another dimension, I'm just saying that if Link can fall through a magical hole with clocks and other imagery, water can too. I have proof. Notice the pool of water in the room where Link is turned into a Deku Scrub. It was most likely rain falling in Hyrule where it then came through the "magical hole" and over time became a pool of water. See for yourself at link
Don't click on the link, it doesn't work. You'll have to copy and paste the address above. Skip to 4:14 to see the water.

mod edit: page stretch. I turned it into a link. Be careful about that okay? here's the code for turning things into links:

Nuh-uh.  The fact that Link can go through that trippy sequence does not also imply that water can, as well.  Termina may very well not be another dimension, but more of another mindset.  Link's retreating inward for an introspective journey of the self, and water cannot do the same-- not being sentient and all.

Or maybe Link got some "Magic Powder" and got high and the events of MM are just a trippy vision Link has. That would explain why the moon has a freakin' face!
