Awesome timeline GMB! It's pretty accurate, but I have a question: How'd you calculate the years? Also, if you need some help researching stuff I can give you hand. I've played every LoZ game. Well I started with 0 because in OoT, the story is told of the 3 goddesses who made the lands of Hyrule in the year 0. So I started at the part. Nate and Colossuem, you are in. Welcome. |

Alright here is part three of the six-part posting of the unofficial Legend of Zelda Chronolgy. [glow=red,2,300]Remember that there are many SPOILERS AHEAD. You have been warned.[/glow]
2040 HC (OoT):
Without any luck in his quest so far, Ganondorf gains audience with the King of Hyrule in hope to gain more information on how to open the gates to the Golden Land. The King has no suspicions about Ganondorf's true agenda, but Princess Zelda and Link alike share the same nightmares about this evil man. The Great Deku Tree knows that the fate of Hyrule lies within the hands of Link, and sends him out to retrieve the three magical stones which will open the gates to the Sacred Realm.
Without knowing, Ganondorf follows Link's quest, and when Link opens the gateway to the Sacred Realm, Ganondorf enters it and gets his hands on the Triforce. Link himself enters a seven year slumber orchestraed by an ancient sage, Rauru, because he knows that it is the only way Link can mature enough to possibly fight off Ganondorf and restore peace to Hyrule.
2047 HC (OoT):
Link awakens to find Hyrule overtaken by the evil clutches of Ganondorf, who now holds the Triforce of Power. What he does not know is that the two other pieces of the Triforce, Courage and Wisdom, have been passed on to Link and Princess Zelda respectively, as they are the two people in Hyrule who represent these qualities the most. Link sets out to awaken the the seven sages, because only with the help of their powers can he gain entrance to Ganon's Castle.
During the battle with Link, Ganondorf transforms himself in to a huge, evil pig-like creature. This was the beginning of what seems to have been a gradual transformation from Ganondorf, the man, in to Ganon, the evil creature who would stop at nothing to grant his own wishes. Later, in The Wind Waker, these names were used interchangeably for Ganon(dorf). After a long hard battle Link defeats Ganon, and the seven sages with Princess Zelda as the leader manages to seal Ganon in the Sacred Realm. After the battles are over and peace has been restored to Hyrule, Princess Zelda sends Link back to his own time, so that he would not lose his childhood.
2041 HC (MM):
Done with the battles that made him a Hero in his homeland, Link sets out to find a friend whom he parted ways with when he fulfilled his destiny and became the Hero of Time. Be it be accident or destiny, Link was brought to the land of Termina, a parallel world to Hyrule. Here he met with many familiar faces, though they were not the same people who he had interacted with during his previous quest. In Termina, he quickly discovers that his help is desperately needed, as an evil known as Majora's Mask is bringing the moon down to crush Termina. With time running short, the Hero of Time must once again use his powers to manipulate time on order to awaken the four giants who can stop the moon from falling down.
After a big showdown inside the moon, Link defeats Majora's Mask and saves Termina from destruction. No tale tells the story of what happened to Link I after this, and it is left up to the imagination of the player to figure this out. One thing is for sure however, no new stories about the Hero of Time after this, and it can be assumed that he retreated to a life in peace somewhere, possibly even in Termina with his new-found friends, but it is most likely that we will never know for sure until a Zelda game is made in between OoT and TP, which is the next one on the timeline.
Part four is coming up with the newest Zelda game to come, Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Now that one is going to have many spoilers. Don't get angry at me for spoiling it for you because you have been warned many times now.

That a good timeline. I like it. How do you do it, GeneralMBison? He's just putting the plots of the games and putting them in order. He's also assigning dates by using a start date and adding the years between events. He's done a pretty good job, too! |

Here is part four of the six-part posting of the unofficial Legend of Zelda Chronology. [glow=red,2,300]Remember that there are many SPOILERS AHEAD and this is the BIG SPOILERS (Twilight Princess). You have been warned.[/glow]
2090 HC (TP):
While Hyrule was in peace from the evil bane of Ganondorf who was sent to a different realm by the sages before he killed one of them, darkness was taking over the lands in it. Later a fellow citizen in the Twilight Realm, Zant was sad that he wanted to be king of the Twili Realm but was passed over. So he then prays to the gods and the message is recieved by a false god (Ganondorf) who then gives him powers to take over Twilight Realm. Then Zant enters the portal that unites Hyrule and Twilight Realm and brings back Ganondorf to Hyrule in which both of them begins to take over the lands of Hyrule.
2091 HC (TP):
Link II who was born in Ordon Village, in which he lives as a farm boy who doesn't know anything about the legend of the Hero of Time travels to Hyrule for a festival that the mayor of Ordon Village told him to go for him. When he reaches the border line of Ordon and Faron provinces, he sees the Twilight Realm for the first time and where he is tranformed into a wolf. But before that happened, a band of monster attacked Link II and his fellow friends who were taken captive by the monsters. He them meets Midna, a fellow citizen of the Twilight Realm who in the end is the real Twilight Princess, not Zelda II, joins with Link II and travels across Hyrule as Link II saves his friends and goes to all the temples and beat the bosses in it. In the end, he sends the Twilight Realm back to it's original place and defeats Ganondorf with the help of Zelda II. Ganondorf is shown that he dies with his follower, Zant, with the Master Sword in his stomach which had a glowing scar that Link II attacked. It is also shown that he tranforms into Ganon but not as the pig-like creature, instead he is some sort of boar that walks on four legs. Plus it also shows that he can take over other people's bodies and use them just like what he did to Zelda II when he fought against Link II in Hyrule Castle.
2147 HC (TWW):
Somehow the seal of sages that held Ganon trapped within the Sacred Realm is broken. Nobody knows just how this happened, but as this great evil once more threatened the very existence of Hyrule, people started waiting for the return of the Hero of legends who had save the land from this evil before.
2150 HC (TWW):
When the people of Hyrule realized that the Hero would not return to save them from Ganon, they turned to the Gods and prayed for them to vanquish Ganon and restore peace to Hyrule. The Gods responded, possibly angered by the turmoil that was going on, by puring endless amounts of water over Hyrule. Soon, the land of Hyrule was no more, and in its place came a sea, which quickly became known as the Great Sea, and Ganon was buried under this sea together with the land he wanted.
2500 HC (TWW):
Just as quickly as the land of Hyrule was drowned within the depths of the seemingly endless sea, the people forgot all about it, and adapted to their new lifestyles on the mountaintops of Hyrule, which became islands. Only on a certain island known as Outset they remembered the old Kingdom which was now far below the surface upon which they now lived, but it quickly became a mere legend to them as well.
Part five is coming in a few minutes with the continuing of the rest of Wind Waker and then into Nintendo's latest Legend of Zelda game for the DS: Legend of Zelda: Phantom Houglass.

Part five is here. We are close of finishing this six part-posting of the unofficial Legend of Zelda Chronology. [glow=red,2,300]Remember that there are many SPOILERS AHEAD. You have been warned.[/glow]
2510 HC (TWW):
Link III, the Hero of Winds was born on Outset Island around the same time as Princess Zelda III was born in to a family of pirates who roamed the Great Sea. It was said that Link III had no relations to the Hero of Time, but Princess Zelda III, who went by the name Tetra, and was captain of the Pirates, was part of the royal bloodline of Hyrule.
2522 HC (TWW):
Ganon, who had been sealed under the ocean together with the Kingdom of Hyrule which he desired to rule over for hundreds of years, becomes active again. It is not known how, but he manages to create a portal from Hyrule to the the Forsaken Fortress which is above the surface of the Great Sea, and he is working in secrecy to find the two remaining pieces of the Triforce, Courage and Wisdom, which he needs to revive the Kingdom of Hyrule for his own evil schemes.
In his quest for the Triforce of Wisdom, he kidnapps young, blonde girls with pointy ears (trademarks of the Princess of Hyrule), and when one of these girls turns out to be Link III's sister, Aryll, Link sets out to save her. During his quest to save his sister, he in colaboration with an ancient King of Hyrule, Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule, uncover Ganon's plans, and they make it their goal to stop Ganon. After a long quest, Link III and Princess Zelda III faces Ganon in battle and defeat him by working together. Peace is again restored to Hyrule and the Great Sea.
2522 HC (HP):
After defeating Ganon, both Link III and Zelda III who is back to her pirate self, Tetra, travels to find a new land which it will be the new Hyrule Kingdom. After traveling in the Great Sea for some days, a storm hits and breaks the ships away and drags Link III to a new land in which he knows that Tetra is also there but in a different part of the land. Not much is known about this part of time since the game hasn't come out yet.
2914 HC (ALTTP):
A dark age seems to be approaching Hyrule as monsters are appearing left and right, and there seems to be no stopping these. Out of the blue, the Wizard Agahnim appears and puts and end to all of this, and as a sign of gratitude the King of Hyrule gives him the position as his 1st advisor. Agahnim has evil plans however, as it turns out he is a puppet of Ganon who is working from the Sacred Realm, which has now become the Dark World. Agahnim overthrows the King, and puts all of Hyrule's soldiers under his spell, while he works to sacrifice the seven maidens who are descendants of the sages who created the barrier which seals Ganon in the Dark World, as that is the only way the barrier can be broken.
Princess Zelda IV pleads for Link's help telepathically, and Link IV sets out on a quest to stop Ganon. After a long hard journey he is able to defeat Ganon and get the Triforce back. Link IV then uses the mystical powers of the Triforce to return everything in Hyrule back to normal and peace regins.
We are now in the last post of this unofficial Legend of Zelda Chronology six part-posting. Stay tuned.

Hi! Nice timeline, but there's one thing about it that just seems a bit wrong...
LttP takes place after WW.. In WW, hyrule is flooded. In LttP, Hyrule isn't flooded yet...
Anyway, a few weeks ago, I made a timeline theory too (using the double-timeline theory) with your permission, i'd love to post it.
Also, do you mind if I switch races to Twili? I like them alot more than the Kokori, but when I joined they werent a choice (probably because TP wasn't out, and nobody knew what the hell a Twili was).
K, that's all I have to say at the moment. Bye!

Bye! What you said about WW and LttP, here is more of the theory: WW was when Hyrule was flooded. After that and many years later, the ocean dries up and Hyrule is back to itself. Now here is the final post of the unofficial Legend of Zelda Chronology: 2916 HC (OOA & OOS):Evil is brewing in lands far away from Hyrule, and the Triforce calls upon Link to fight this evil. As he progresses in the lands of Holodrum and Labrynna, he discovers that the puppetmaster(s) behind this threat is Twinrova, Ganon's surrogate mothers from, who are trying to revive Ganon. As Link fights his way through the evil which is threatening these lands he meets up with the three Oracles, Din, Farore and Nayru, from whom he gets the help needed to take on the evil Twinrova and ultimately Ganon. PS: At the end of the Oracle games when Link meets Princess Zelda, it seems to be the first time they meet. We have no rational explanation to this inconcistency, and it is something that flaws our theory of the placement of the Oracle games. Regardless we have decided that placing them in between ALTTP and LA is where it makes most sense, despite of this inconsitency in the theory. 2916 HC (LA):On his way back to Hyrule, Link gets shipwrecked and ends up on the mysterious island of Koholint, where he has to awaken the Windfish. Throughout this quest he meets up with many familiar friends and foes, and the fact that the island disappears once he awakens the Windfish, makes many think that this was just a dream. Nobody knows for sure . . . 3000 HC:We don't know what happens in between 2916 HC to 3540 HC. Maybe in the future, we can see more Zelda games that can fill in this gap and tell us what happened in the part of the timeline. Rumors have it that the next Wii Zelda (TBA 2008?), could take place in this part of time. 3540 HC:Princess Zelda V is born in the North Castle in Hyrule. 3550 HC:One of the great kings of Hyrule hides the Triforce of Courage, and his son, a Prince of Hyrule, desires it greatly, but does not know its whereabouts. When an evil Wizard tells him that his younger sister, Princess Zelda knows its location, but refuses to tell him, the Prince is so upset that in his rage he with the help of the Wizard puts his sister in to a deep slumber from which she may never awaken. In his grief after realizing what he has done, the Prince places Zelda in an alter in North Castle and puts down a law which says that every Princess born in Hyrule after this must be named Zelda. 3845 HC (LoZ):The evil wizard Ganon reappears in Hyrule and manages to steal the Triforce of Power. He takes over the underworld of Hyrule, and uses Death Mountain as his headquarters. As a result of Ganon's reappearance and increase of power, monsters start to appear in Hyrule. Link VI and Princess Zelda VI are born. 3860 HC (LoZ):Princess Zelda VI inherits the Triforce of Wisdom, but fearing that Ganon will try to steal it she shatters it in to eight pieces which she hides throughout Hyrule. Then she sends Princess Impa out to look for a hero who can save Hyrule from the clutches of Ganon, after which Zelda is taken prisoner by Ganon himself. When Impa meets Link she is convinced that he is the hero that will save both Hyrule and Princess Zelda, and he sets out a quest which ends in success. 3862 HC (AoL):Link discovers the mark of the Triforce on his hand, and Impa tells him that this means he is the one destined to awaken Zelda VI from her eternal slumber, and Link sets out and completes this quest in which he defeats Shadow Link and many enemies who want Link's blood and soul so they can bring back Ganon from the dead. That's it. ;D |
