I play my drum for you
Hey all! Long time no see!
Anyway, I got on because I had two theories that have really been bothering me and I want to k now what the rest of the community thinks (My other one can be found here).
Now, on tot he theory.
First of all, there are three games that are proven to take place in another dimension besides Hyrule:
Majora's Mask
Phantom Hourglass
Link's Awakening
The Theory
The possibility came to me that they may all be the same dimension. This is the point where you please check out the link above to explain a little bit. You may wonder, "How could we get from the Termina of MM to the Great Sea of PH?" Well, the answer would be simple:
First, MM is proven to be on the child timeline and PH on the adult. (LA is not officially on either, but for our purposes I'm saying it's on the adult timeline). Therefore, in the adult timeline, there would be no Link to stop the moon from falling onto Termina, causing the great Catastrophe that most MM players are familiar with. But what if this were not an apocalyptic scenario like most believe it to be, but actually the Termina equivalent of the Great Flood before WW? And was it Majora's idea to cause this flood, and not death to all?
What if the answers are yes, and the reason?
The Enemy
Nightmare. The villain from LA.
Nightmare, who could take whatever form he wanted.
Nightmare, who would have use of the world of the Wind Fish's mind as a base of operations.
But then, where is the Wind Fish during all this? Obviously hidden away, somewhere deep underground. He could have been the force that brought Link into Termina during MM (we'll mention him more in a little bit).
But still, why the flood?
The Flood
This goes back into the other thread I mentioned: the Giants. What if they were within the dream of the Wind fish as well, trying to destroy Nightmare from the inside? This would be the simplest way of killing all four. The Wind Fish had to be hidden so he could live, plus he'd need a place to raise his army, hence the islands and not total destruction.
The Child Timeline
But why did this not happen in the child timeline, if there was no mention of Nightmare? Back to Majora. If Nightmare were Majora, then with Majora's defeat in MM, there would be no Nightmare to attack Hyrule, and therefore no more need for Termina in the Child Timeline.
Phantom Hourglass
Now, after the Flood, the Wind Fish obviously had some self-awareness after this because, as seen in our next game, Phantom Hourglass, the Wind Fish is known (as The Ocean King) and viewed as a god. Therefore, Nightmare would need another creature to help him keep down the Wind Fish's power. Therefore, he created Bellum as a scapegoat, and when Bellum was destroyed, and the Wind Fish pacified for a time, Nightmare continued toward his goals.
Link's Awakening
Finally comes Link's Awakening, the last game in our discussion. In this game, Link finds himself on a single island in the middle of the ocean that doesn't exist and is ruled over by the sacred Wind Fish, who is under the Spell. Of Nightmare. Open and shut, Nightmare is defeated and Link returns to the real world, the island destroyed. This island, it seems, looks like a larger and more glorified version of PH's Mercay Island. Just a small connection.
So what do you guys think? Seem legit?
