So, I never understood why they chose Ocarina of Time to have the canon failure ending causing a third split in the space time continuum. I mean, ANY game could have done that and still could technically.
Think about it, what if at the end of Skyward Sword, Link fails to defeat Demise and rescue Zelda, meaning Zelda dies and Demise rises to power. Presumably, to keep this theory going, Link doesn't die but instead he escapes back up to Skyloft. Demise would more than likely have no knowledge of Skyloft as he was trapped away for the extent of time it was put up there, meaning he wouldn't think to go after it. So far this would mean Zelda, AKA the reincarnate of Hylia, is dead, and probably Impa as well since she was on the surface at the time. This would mean that the people of Skyloft could seemingly never return to the surface, meaning Hyrule would never exist.
Life would carry on above the clouds while below evil will churn away. Now, I’m not sure on the logistics behind this but at some point magic will begin to return, and certain people will be able to utilize this magic, for instance, Ezlo and Vaati who, I guess in this case, are born on Skyloft as humans instead of Picorri. Vaati will know of the Master Sword that was passed down from generation to generation considering it was never placed in the Sealed Temple. He will probably still betray Ezlo for his magic cap, turning Ezlo into a green cap, and attempt to take the Master Sword only to find out that it has long since lost its power. At this point, Vaati won’t be able to take over Skyloft quite yet. The Link from this era is given the task of forging a new sacred sword so that they may protect themselves, requiring him to go down to the surface and pray the Picorri still live while under Demise’s rule. Ezlo will accompany Link on this journey because he believes it was his apprentices fault for causing a panic amongst Skyloft. To his luck, the Picorri still live, and they assist Link in forging the sword creating the Four Sword, but along the way they encounter Vaati who is searching the surface for the Triforce. Link defeats Vaati and traps him within the Four Sword, and returns to Skyloft where they place the Four Sword in a sacred shrine to protect it.
However, years pass and the sacred seal in the Four Sword is broken and Vaati escapes. Having no knowledge of the time that has passed since he was entrapped within the blade, he vows for revenge on Link and Skyloft for keeping him imprisoned. Vaati returns to the Surface in search of the Triforce, yet again. Link is again tasked with defeating Vaati and returning him to the Four Sword, however upon wielding the sword, Link is split into four entities who return to the Surface and aid Link in defeating Vaati yet again and resealing him within the Four Sword. The four Links return to Skyloft and return the Four Sword to its shrine, which also makes the four Links one again.
Generations pass, and a man named Ganondorf is born amongst the people of Skyloft. Ganondorf has huge ambitions to take over the Surface using the power of the Triforce. Ganondorf returns to the Surface and is successful in locating the Triforce but before he is able to use it he is thwarted by the goddesses who split the Triforce into three, leaving the Triforce of Power within Ganondorf, the Triforce of Courage within this generations Link, and leaving the Triforce of Wisdom within a young girl from Skyloft named Zelda, who is unknowingly the reincarnation of the goddess Hylia. Angered by the goddesses intervention, Ganondorf returns to Skyloft in search of the remaining two pieces of the Triforce. Zelda’s mentor Impa, who is named after the goddesses aid from the ancient legends and is one of the few remaining members of an ancient tribe known as the Sheikah, explains to Zelda her existence and of the power she holds. Ganondorf learns of Triforce piece hidden within Zelda and attempts to kidnap her. Understanding she is vital to stopping Ganondorf, Zelda goes to the Surface, and disguises herself as a Sheikah boy for seven years before the “Hero of Time” can save them. Meanwhile, this generations Link is undergoing training in the Knight’s Academy. When word reaches them of Ganondorf’s intentions to capture the Triforce, the knights are sent after him. All of the knights except for Link are killed in battle. Leaving Link as the last knight left, he is sent to the Surface so that he may protect the Triforce from Ganondorf, unknowing that Ganondorf had already reached the Triforce before. When Link gets to the Temple of Time, he is greeted by a mysterious man named Sheik, who entrusts Link with what he knows. Link learns that he must wait seven years before he is strong enough to defeat Ganondorf. So Link is sealed within the Temple of Time for seven long years. Upon his awakening, Sheik informs Link of what has happened in the last seven years. Ganondorf has taken over all of Skyloft forcing the people to return to the dangerous Surface. Demise has gotten word of Hylias reincarnation and searches desperately for her, as she is the only one who can stop him. Shiek reveals to Link of his true identity as the reincarnation of Hylia, Zelda. She then tells Link that he must return to Skyloft and retrieve the Master Sword from within its shrine above. From there, he must return with the sword back to the Temple of Time, where Zelda can return its power. So Link returns to Skyloft which is now under the rule of Ganondorf and safely retrieves the Master Sword. Upon which, he returns to the Temple of Time with the Master Sword where Zelda then returns its power. Link then returns to Skyloft alone, and defeats Ganondorf. When he returns to the Temple of Time, he finds out that Demise has kidnapped Zelda. Link, must then go and free Zelda, who then helps Link defeat Demise, but not before Demise vows to haunt the generations to come. At this point, Zelda returns Link to seven years prior to the incident, so that Link may warn Zelda of the events to come. Leaving this era without a hero.
At this point, I have pretty much covered Skyward Sword, Minish Cap, Four Swords, Four Swords Adventure, and Ocarina of Time.
Link is sent back in time to warn Zelda of the events that would unfold and aids her in stopping them before they occur. The people of Skyloft, return to the Surface safely, now that it is rid of both Ganondorf and Demise. Soon afterwards begins the building of Hyrule, the kingdom in which the remaining people of Skyloft will flourish.
And the rest is quite plain I hope. I don’t know why I did this, the thought just randomly happened upon me. Feel free to dispute or add on to this. I’m open to discussion.
