i just kind of thought of something when reading the story of Minish Cap. in MC, the sacred realm opens every 100 years. we know that the sacred Realm is the same place as the temple of time in OoT. Ganondorf gets sealed in the sacred realm at the end of OoT which leads into WW. Miyamoto stated that WW takes place 100 years after Ganondorf is sealed in the sacred realm.
in OoT there is no mention of the picori. now i know that the picori were probably thought of long after OoT was created so this is probably a long shot, but hear me out.
maybe the reason the picori are not mentioned or seen is because people just eventually forgot about them and they only show themselves to kids but since they dont know/forgot about them, they decide to stay hidden or just died out. now because of this, everyone forgets that the sacred realm opens every one hundred years or maybe, a long time before OoT, the royal family found a way to stop the sacred realm from opening and they just permanantly sealed it until it was necessary to open it. when they trapped ganondorf, he escaped one hundred years later, thus the adventures in WW takes place. is it possible that this proves MC's placement on the timline? they once knew that the realm opened every one hundred years but after so long, people forgot not only about the picori but that the realm eventually will open again. when link opens the realm maybe it restarts the one hundred year process that the realm goes through so that when ganondorf is trapped, it opens up and allows him to escape one hundred years later in WW.
what do you all think?
