Here is where the time line split must happen and where the theory comes in. Zelda games show us that the time line is just malable enough that small alterations can be adjusted for, like planting a tree in past and collecting its fruit in the future. However, LARGE event changes create time line branches or splits.

In an effort to rectify the inconsistencies between TOTK's past time period and the pre-established lore of the rest of the series, many Zelda fans have subscribed to the Hyrule Refounding Theory. This theory states that TOTK takes place so long after any other game in the series, that its past time period still takes place after any other game in the Zelda Timeline.

The Legend of Zelda has definitely earned the "legendary" moniker, at least when it comes to video games. Few pixilated adventures have woven an epic tale like the multi-game, multi-platform, multi-timeline series has (if you're confused about the current Zelda timeline, so are a lot of people).The journey of Link through forests, temples, and time has taken gamers on quite a ride, and over

Personally I like the theory that it was the Light Arrows. It allows Link to get through almost all of Ocarina of Time, but puts a hard stop on the Ganondorf fight, which becomes impossible. The idea would be that the Triforce sent some of LttP Link's Silver Arrows back, which became imbued with the Triforce's power.

The newly-announced The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom will notably feature a playable Princess Zelda as its protagonist, but the glimpses of her Hyrule seen so far also carry some interesting implications for the game's position on the franchise's timeline.

25 The Interlopers. This theory has a few layers to it. The first layer is the fact that the Interlopers that are alluded to in Majora's Mask could be a version of the ancient ones/related to the Twili race. This theory states that, whoever these people may be, might be the ones who created Majora's Mask.

My only alternative theory so far was an entirely separate timeline branching from the time paradox in Skyward Sword and taking place around the time OoT would've in the original timeline. My only method rn for determining if that may be the case is reviewing the theories for where BotW is placed with new information in mind.

Gigaliminal posted... Even if you try to use the B.S. explanation that Rauru's "founding of the Kingdom of Hyrule" is for the second time (and Ganondorf shows up the for the second time to try to take over Hyrule in the same way as in OoT), it doesn't really make sense in any satisfying way.

Rather, the theory suggests that the history of Hyrule is cyclical, experiencing death and rebirth, centering around the battle between Ganon and Hylia—the goddess of Hyrule. Hylia and Demise—the demon figure in the Legend of Zelda, take on mortal forms in the guises of Zelda and Ganon, respectively. Each time Demise manifests itself as
