The Legend of Zeldw: Breath of the Wild Possible Timeline Placement

Posted

Hello everyone! This is my theory as to where I believe Breath of the Wild falls on the official Zelda timeline.

I see two possible placements; the first being in the Era Without a Hero; and the other being post-Spirit Tracks.

Let's start with the first one. Why do I think it's in the Era Without a Hero? It's quite simple really. The layout of the area, specifically the Great Plateau. What if the Plateau is actually the old Castle Town Square? I mean, we have the fountain where the couple in OoT were dancing, and next to that we have the Temple of Time.

Next, we have post-Spirit Tracks. Why do I think this? Well, for 3 reasons. The first is the Old Man. He looks familiar, no? To me he looks like the old king of Hyrule, Daphnes. Secondly, its citizens, specifically, the Koroks. In Wind Waker, their whole job was to spread the Deku Tree's seeds and make a new land. What if they succeeded and created a brand new Hyrule? Lastly, the rusted Master Sword and Calamity Ganon. Last we saw this land, it had sunk to the bottom of the Great Sea, and Ganon was sealed in stone with the Master Sword sticking out of his head. Well, what if, when the Koroks created the new land, they unwittingly released Ganon ahd he became Calamity Ganon? As for the Master Sword, it being underwater for at least a hundred years, it got rusty. And maybe this was a part of Ganondorf's unsealing.

 

What do you guys think of this theory? Let me know.

I think the game could take place in another split timeline after the wind waker in which Ganondorf manages to get his wish on the triforce, which was to bring back the old hyrule

 

EDIT: Forgot to answer your question, so I'll answer it now

 

I think your theory is quite intriguing and you have good points from the game itself to justify your reasons
