I argued that OoT Link left the sword in the temple and thus TP Link should find it there, too. The same could probably be said of SS Link to OoT Link. We don't know what TP Link does with the master sword, so naturally we aren't expecting to find it in a specific place anymore.
You are indeed...
I repeated a lot of Hyrule Historia quotes because your objections to them were flimsy at best. I repeated the observations about art style because you are holding that particular comparison to an unreasonable standard. I'm also summarizing a lot of evidence because when debating two theories...
A simpler theory that better fits the evidence would be:
-The first Temple of Time is the one in the Lanayru desert in Skyward Sword. It contains one of two existing gates of time: the only one still working at the time.
-The second Temple of Time is the one built by Rauru over the sealed...
I fail to see the advantages of theorizing an extra temple that is superficially very similar to the ToT, yet distinct, unless you are preserving some other theory that is much stronger and more compelling. I'm more than happy to hear such a theory, but for now, I'm ignorant of it. Please either...
At the bottom of page 117 in Hyrule Historia:
There is a picture of the sacred grove from TP princess with the caption, The ruins of the Temple of Time.
So it seems fairly safe to say, along with other evidence I've mentioned, that the sacred grove of TP is the Temple of Time from OoT. It...
Well surely the temple didn't rebuild itself in the 10,000+ years between TP and BoTW, but 10,000 years does give you a lot of leeway for it to have been restored. I'll grant you that the name "Temple of Time" gets used to describe multiple buildings throughout the series. BoTW Temple of Time is...
I don't believe the entire map can be made consistent, but there are a few landmarks that seem to paint a coherent picture of what happened to the kokiri forest and the Master Sword. The general story of the map is that the forest encroached all the way across hyrule field and hyrule castle. The...
