I am looking a lot on Twilight Princess these days, looking for references and anything that may come handy to write my fanfic; and so I keep noticing things.
Just now I was running through Arbeiter's Grounds, and into the Mirror Chamber. the first time we go there, there is a statue of a woman that made me think...
...What if Arbeiter's Grounds is in fact the Sand Temple from OoT?
Both buildings have quite a lot in common: they are great and lonely buildings at the far edge of the desert (true, geography changed a lot between those two games, but this still is the desert Ganondorf comes from), they both have great statues of a woman (the goddess of the sand in OoT, and someone who could be the very same goddess in TP), they have the same dungeon-like structure (which AG shouldn't have, being in fact a prison); and they are far away from everything.
What I think is that the Royal Family attacked the Gerudo after discovering Ganondorf's plot in OoT, conquered their Valley and desert, and claimed the temple to turn it into a prison for the worst criminals. Then they moved the Mirror there (it is supposed to exist during OoT, but it's never shown. maybe it was stored in Hyrule Castle, maybe in the ToT...). Way later they decided it was too expensive to maintain a prison so far away, and they abandoned it, sealing the valley's access and letting the desert sands invade it.
What do you think?
