I'm not much of a Zelda theorist anymore post Breath of the Wild but I recently watched a theory that I think has mileage and would like to know what the theorists on this site think of it.
The link to the actual video will be posted below but ultimately the theory posits that Death Sword could possibly be Phantom Ganon.
The sword itself is theorised to have been used by Ganondorf in the events before his execution at the Arbiters Grounds.
The Sages, unable to destroy the sword, locked the sword up and bound the phantom inside of it.
The black metal and gold designs of the sword are likened to Ganondorf's armour and Death Sword itself is likened to Phantom Ganon due to it sharing certain resemblances such as horns, levitating and throwing orbs of magic.
Do you think Death Sword could have belonged to Ganondorf and do you think the spirit inside is Phantom Ganon?
