Was Ganondorf truly the evil, power-hungry King we have heard of him to be? Were Link and Princess Zelda truly destined to destroy him for the salvation of Hyrule? I don't think so. Let's assume that the general track of the story holds, and that some historical events did actually happen: when Link was a child Hyrule 'seemed' to be in great shape. In 7 years after Ganondorf supposedly burst onto the scene and messed things up, some set of events happened that led to the collapse of Castle Town and the Royal Family, a much worse condition for the Kokiri, Gorons, and Zora, and devastation for the Gerudo as well. The last and most important assumption is that none of the characters we know of were any more or less selfish, power-hungry, or selfless than the average person in Hyrule, and that they actually embody all three of these characteristics and more at different times in the events described in LoZ: OoT This story is my attempt to write out the actual history of the events described in moral, legend-like terms from Ocarina of Time and how we came to know the Legend as it is today, rather than this recounting of the actual historical events and actions as they happened.
