Well, most of your know the ending of Oot, and if you don't I suggest you play the game (which is a fantastic experience!) or just read a walkthrough It is often pointed out that Link still has the triforce on his hand in the last scene of the credits...what is this implying? Here is a picture for you...
Notice the Triforce of Courage on his left hand? We know that Navi leaves Link at the end of Oot, most likely because he has
finally defeated Ganon and fulfilled his destiny...and this causes Link to go off looking for navi and the events of Majora's mask unfold. So, we have Link in the past with a piece of the triforce, Ganondorf in the future, locked away in the sacred realm under the sages' seal, and it isn't clear which Zelda has the triforce of Wisdom. It is most commonly thought that the timeline goes from MM to TP on the child timeline and to WW on the adult timeline...but, what happens to the pieces of the Triforce in the later games? If the triforce was to be unified again in a future game in any timeline, so sort of event would have to happen between MM and TP on the child timeline, as well as on the Adult timeline! The pieces are between these two timelines and it is only possible to unite them again when all the pieces are back together. This opens up room for a sequel to MM and a prequel to TP as well as WW. Link would have to travel between timelines to fix the triforce. Now, this is a problem in this theory, as in WW Ganondorf returns to Hyrule, and there is no Link to fight him....but in TP, we have the Hero's Shade (often thought of the Hero of time) and another form of Ganondorf. So, wait a second, this means that Link must have died in the Lost Woods to become a Stalfos and teach his (possible son) student. Why would Link die in the Lost Woods? Did he get lost looking for Navi? Or some other event altogether..be it his attempt to restore the triforce? He must have failed, or had to seal ganon away again in the WW timeline to make a sequel have any sense...Or you could just have a sequel in between MM and TP? This triforce theory opens many possibilities and has been the subject of debate for a while...but it is obviouslly significant and can point to a sequel in the MM to Tp and OOT to WW timeline...Anyway that is just a brief overview of the triforce theory, so do your own research and share what you think!
