<br>Ganondorf is hands-down the most iconic Legend of Zelda villain in the entire series, returning again and again to face up with Link throughout the series' timeline. Zelda games are better when Ganondorf, not Ganon alone, are there, and although the series has done a good job over the years fleshing out the antagonist's backstory, he could still absolutely shine in his own [https://zeldatearshub.com/posts/silent-legends-crafting-catchphrases-for-gaming-s-voiceless-icons.html silent video game protagonists]. The story could perhaps show the powerful King of Gerudo during his ruling era, struggling to provide for his people in the Gerudo Desert before taking a deeply evil turn. In addition to telling a fresh take on his story, Ganondorf's magical powers could provide interesting new combat mechanics that switch up gamep<br><br> <br>While the exact details of the Interloper War are left unclear by the split Legend of Zelda timeline , it did ultimately lead to Rauru's construction of the Temple of Time, sealing the entrance to the Sacred Realm. It’s worth noting that the Interloper War only came to an end through divine intervention thanks to the godlike power that the Fused Shadow. Despite being crafted by the Interlopers, this magical artifact rivaled the Triforce itself, leaving Hyurle with no way to combat future attempts to possess it without the help of the Goddes<br><br> <br>Midna is Link's sidekick in Twilight Princess . She frees Link from his imprisonment at the start of the game and accompanies him throughout. At first, she has her own agenda and seems to care little for Link, treating him like a servant and refusing to tell him why she sought the Fused Shadows that they collect. After Zelda sacrifices herself to save Midna's life, however, she has a change of heart. It's eventually revealed that she is the leader of the Twilight Realm, and was deposed and cursed by Zant prior to the events of the game. Midna may be a rather annoying Zelda sidekick at the beginning of Twilight Princess , but she and Link grow close over time, and both are sad to separate by the end of the g<br><br> <br>The title "Tears of the Kingdom" could also reference the Zonai's past and the events that led to their destruction. There's a common theme regarding dragons with the Zonai, and the logo for Tears of the Kingdom is two dragons of the same style as the Zonai statues eating the other's tail to create a symbol called an Ouroboros. Since the Ouroboros symbolizes the cycle of destruction and rebirth, it seems likely that TOTK will feature the Zonai's history, what happened to them, and possibly their ret<br><br> <br>King Bulblin is a minor antagonist in Twilight Princess . He's the one who first kidnaps the children from Kakariko Village and indirectly sets up the rest of the plot. Link battles him many times throughout the game, both on horseback - with King Bulblin riding Lord Bullbo - and on foot. He's a loyal servant of Zant, and his Bulblin minions frequently act as minor enemies on Link's quest. Although he may seem evil, during his last encounter with Link and Midna, he gives them a Small Key and joins their side, stating that he was simply following whoever was strongest as it's all he's ever kn<br><br> <br>Popular theories draw connections between the Twili and the Zonai, including the serpent imagery noted in both the Palace of Twilight and the latest TOTK trailer, and the distinct blue-green hue of their magic. As such, the Zonai tribe’s disappearance could be directly related to the banishment of the Twili’s ancestors, making it possible for these tribes to actually be the same. If that’s the case, however, then the Zelda timeline implies that the Zonai vanished from Hyrule sometime after Skyward Sword when the residents of Skyloft repopulated the surface world, placing their disappearance significantly earlier in the kingdom of Hyrule's past than the events of BO<br><br> <br>In Breath of the Wild , there are cameos from Twilight Princess and other past Zelda games in the form of special armor in the DLC. These include Midna's helmet and the infamous Majora's Mask. They may be a small detail, but they're at least partial proof that the events and characters of previous games are present in BOTW 's universe. Where exactly BOTW fits into Legend of Zelda 's split timelines is unclear, but it's widely regarded to be at the very end of one of them or a united timeline, so almost any character from past games could theoretically appear in BOTW<br> <br>Many fans likely have their own personal hopes for returning characters in Zelda: Tears of a Kingdom , but regardless of who ends up being a part of the game's narrative, it won't change the game's protagonist. At this point, Link has come to be the expected main character of every mainline title in the series. While this hasn't always been the case for spinoffs, with games like Hyrule Warriors and Tingle's Balloon Fight DS allowing players to step into the shoes of other characters, and there have been short segments in mainline Zelda games where players could control someone else, a character besides Link has never really gotten the chance to truly sh<br>

It intentionally had a more bright and cartoonish look than past games, with a more expressive Link as well. This led to a game with a distinctly different feel from past titles. It also introduced one of the oddest items that Link has ever used in the Hyoi P<br><br> <br>The story of The Legend of Zelda begins long before the events of Skyward Sword , which serves as a prequel to the entire Zelda series. This ancient time was known as the Era of the Goddess Hylia, during which an ancient battle against the demon Demise took place. Hylia nearly fell to Demise and, as such, chose to give up her divinity and be reincarnated as a mortal. While she lost her sacred power, her mortality granted her the ability to wield the Triforce against Demise and seal him away, thus saving her king<br><br> <br>The ball and chain is first discovered in Twilight Princess ' Snowpeak Ruins in the hands of a mini-boss. Once collected, Twilight Princess ' suddenly right-handed Link could use it as a tool to smash obstacles, as well as a weapon against enemies. The ball and chain's great weight gave it a lot of power, dealing heavy damage to enemies with its swings. However, it also weighed Link down, making him move considerably slower compared to when he wields his sword. Its size also enabled him to use it as a shield, making it something of a multipurpose tool in his arsenal. Although not as efficient as the sword in combat, the ball and chain can hold its <br><br> <br>Many fans likely have their own personal hopes for returning characters in Zelda: Tears of a Kingdom , but regardless of who ends up being a part of the game's narrative, it won't change the game's protagonist.

It’s also not out of the question for [https://zeldatearshub.com/posts/celestial-pursuits-mastering-star-fragments-in-hyrule-s-night.html Tears of the Kingdom star Fragments] of the Kingdom to retrospectively focus on the Zelda timeline as Zelda’s journey could potentially allow her to recover memories of both her divinity and past lives. The latest trailer notably featured a heavy use of Ouroboros imagery as well, which could indicate that TOTK ’s story will focus on the past cycles of Hyrule - and the role that Hylia and her Chosen Hero have played throughout the kingdom’s hist<br><br> <br>While Princess Zelda finally managed to awaken her power and keep Hyrule safe until the Hero reawakened in BOTW , Tears of the Kingdom ’s trailers have thus far suggested that Zelda’s story is far from over. The latest trailer in particular shows two hieroglyphic images that appear to be Zelda, the second of which depicts her mirrored with a hidden figure. If Tears of the Kingdom truly is shifting its focus to Zelda’s story, then its title may indicate a reawakening of her power as the Goddess Hylia hers<br><br> <br>Regardless of their extensive knowledge, however, BOTW ’s characters are seemingly unaware that Princess Zelda is the era’s incarnation of the Goddess Hylia herself. Zelda devoted her entire life to prayer in order to awaken her sacred power, but her prayers went unanswered by the Goddess. However, Tears of the Kingdom ’s plot may awaken Zelda’s memories as the Goddess Hylia, allowing her to invoke the full extent of her hidden power in BOTW ’s seq<br><br> <br>While much of Hyrule’s past has been left intentionally obscured by the overarching Zelda timeline, there are shreds of details present throughout the canon games and companion books that may add deeper context to the series’ main events. Namely, the Hyrulean Civil War mentioned in Ocarina of Time and the Interloper War alluded to during Twilight Princess are two major events in Hyrule's history that have yet to be thoroughly detailed. It’s possible that BOTW ’s First Great Calamity is actually another name for the Interloper War, which would place almost every single game on the Zelda timeline between BOTW ’s two apocalyptic Calamit<br>
