Just some random Link (multiple Links) hcs and Timeline hcs.

Please note, before reading any of this, that this is just an idea of mine and I am not going to cling to it for anything. This is mostly just me trying to make sense of things and sharing what I thought of. I blame my doing this on having drifted her from the Tolkien fandom... this stuff happened there all the time in rp and not.

The Links

Sky is not the First Link but he is the one who started the Curse and that nonsense. First, the actual First Link, is Sky's ancestor (possibly his grandfather but definitely not his father). Sky is also the ancestor of the rest, and is where some of them get Dreams from.

Minish (possibly the Hero of the Four Sword but possibly not) is not related to most of the Links but is Wind and Spirit's Ancestor.

Time is the ancestor to Legend (see the Fic I have yet to write), Wind (see a different fic or hc that I have yet to write) and Twilight. He is aware of this but only when in a different time period because the Goddess of Time (who shall be named eventually... i hope) doesn't want time to be messed up more than it already is. He is actually alive but came close enough to dying that the part of his being that was the Hero's Spirit moved on. (He was in the twilight realm for a while and is now a spirit wolf wandering)

Legend is the Hero of Hyrule's ancestor. Legend is actually two different Links in a red robe with an extra side of trauma for flavor. He eventually found Marin again (thanks to Warriors) and she was his wife (I have more ideas but that's all for now for him).

Twilight is Four's ancestor (FSA) and Warriors' ancestor (HW) before eventually becoming the ancestor and travel buddy of the Hero of the Wilds, he copies Time with that and either somehow travels there as a Spirit and is a wolf, or he 'dies' somehow and is there (See yet another fic or hc that I have yet to write).

Wind is Spirit's ancestor.

The Timeline

First's time through Minish (who probably forged the Four Sword but idk yet since I haven't finished that game much less played FS) is one solid time period.

Time's time period is where things get weird and the Timeline breaks and breaks and the Goddess of Time whines about certain others not paying attention. The first break is where Time dies (obviously) and we all know that runs down to the Hero of Hyrule (loz and taol). The second break is obvious as that's how we get Wind and Spirit.

The third possible break is less obvious since it may have been just a dream, that's in MM where no obvious heroes follow him since he completely left that timeline. I have become fond of seeing this as another break because it, in my mind, explains why Hyrule sort of backslid technologically. In TP and WW we know they had cannons and so likely firearms of some sort but in ALttP and the past era in TotK we don't see any of that technology. Further in OoT the soldiers all had metal armor, something that also seems to be the case in FS and to a lesser extent SS where the academy students all seemed to wear some sort of chain mail. Ultimately I want to say that the past of TotK was in this timeline set before the timelines converged (something I like attributing to HW) but not long before since Zelda was there after and all the locations in BotW had names from people or places in all three timelines.

The last timeline is obviously the one with Twilight and the most direct path, in my mind, to the Era of Breath of the Wild.

... I am not an expert on any of this but it's the best I can some up with to explain some of the stuff we see in all of that.

Ganondorf Dragmire - Tina Edition

Okay, so I think I’ve worked out what I want to do with Ganondorf. The OPTION for Ocarina of Time Ganondorf will still be there, simply because there are a number of things I still want to explore with that particular reincarnation of the Dark King, but I think my MAIN Ganondorf will be a sort of... ‘Redemption Arc’ Ganondorf.

... because I am a sucker for muses turned good ( or, trying to be ), as one can tell with my Dark Link ( and I am complete ASS at playing baddies, so... here we are). 

Since BOTW 2 Ganondorf is still so up in the air, given we only have that one trailer to go off of, I think I might use that to my advantage ( plus, Rehydrated Ganondorf. Like, yes. Hello. Only beautiful muses up in here, thank you ). I think I want to have it where this particular Ganondorf is very much aware of his past selves, and very much TIRED of being vengeful and bitter. If the goddesses are only going to keep working him, Link, and Zelda into this vicious cycle where they seek to KILL him over and over and over again, then this time, he’s going to defy them as best as he can through PEACEFUL means.

Now, this might seem MEGA EXTREME, but it’s the only way I can think of to kind of... work Ganondorf into all the games WITHOUT having to play every separate incarnation of him (because I do not want to, lmfao). Clearly, this dried up prune we see in the BOTW 2 trailer has been there for quite some time, and is still very much alive - why? Not revealed yet, but TIME plays a very important factor in this evidently (and, no, I don’t mean the HERO OF TIME, lmfao). I’m going to take this concept of time and RUN WITH IT, and we’re going to have it that, somehow, this revived Ganondorf can toy with the concept of time. Perhaps he’s able to tap into the eras of his past incarnations and manifest--- and it’s in these separate timelines that he’ll dangerously attempt to sway the tides of fate elsewhere. Could mean a run in with that era’s hero, could mean a very weird encounter with that era’s Ganondorf - who knows. 

This makes very little sense, I know, but we’re basically playing with TIME TRAVELING, I’M-SICK-OF-THIS-VILLAIN-SHIT GANONDORF. 

#muse ;; GANONDORF ( ABOUT ) #[ does this make sense? oh gosh I hope so. #If anyone has questions - please let me know! #I might trash this idea altogether because it just seems extreme but like... #Ganondorf has so much potential and I don't want to limit myself to just #ONE incarnation... #but I also don't want to play OOT and WW and TP and HW and SS Ganondorf because noooo #that's like 100 new muses because they're all different LMFAO #so hello have this! ] #queue
