" 1. Link pulls the master sword and goes 7 years into the future. The present, however, is now without Link. Ganon takes over but gets locked into the dark world by the 7 sages. ALttP starts.
2. Timeline 1 is without Link, because he left to the future. He defeated Ganon and returns to his past, which isnt the same as timeline 1. Instead, an alternate universe has opened. This is what timetravel does. So Link is in the same time in an alternate universe and begins his adventure of MM.
3. Link defeated Ganon at the end of OOT and returns to his past (timeline 2). The future is now without Link. Ganon returns, but there is no Link. To save Hyrule, it gets flooded. Next game would be WW.
Long story short, don't go time traveling"
its an easy idea to comprehend, just deal with it
yeah except 1 and 3 aren't different timelines in this model, they are part of the same sequence
link pulls the master sword, ganon takes over while hes gone, link comes back and locks away ganon, link leaves

the act of link going ahead in the first place created two timelines is what that is saying

But Link never physically travels through time. Rauru even states as much when Adult Link first wakes up. Link is put into some kind of seven year sleep, during which Rauru and the other sages actually watch over him.
Which actually murders all kinds of wormhole and multi-time line concepts.

No he said he HAD been sleeping and is now awake.

thanked
this is exactly what I was trying to say
also koopaul can you expand on that statement?

I see how you guys are confused. Basically, since Link "slept" during 7 years, the timeline of which he saves the future and the timeline in which he doesn't actually return to the past should be the same, and a new timeline would be created only when he actually returns to the past.
But whatever, Zelda isn't science fiction, so why bother arguing about this? I'm curious to how the stories are connected together in detail though. Wonder when the whole thing is actually fully translated.
