Never though of that angle... It is a 1000 years later, so some of that might have died down.


You'd be surprised how long a grudge can last. Jews, Muslims, and Christians have been fighting over Jerusalem for thousands of years and are showing no signs of that ever dying down.

Ehhhh. That's... Hard to compare.

Because, technically, the Jewish people have only been in control of the actual city of Jerusalem since WWII, and have never really had a military force to fight Islamic people anyway (Unlike Christians).

Now, if you were to argue Christians and Muslims fighting over it, that is a bit closer to a mellenium, but wasn't caused by a grudge. The crusades (Where I'm kind-of considering the 'start' of this conflict) were caused by the fact the Islamic people in charge there ceased letting Christians into the city as well as other bad things to Christians

... Believe it or not I'm a Math Major, actually.

I realized my error and edited accordingly. Even still, the Crusades themselves are arguably what sparked the current animosities between the groups today. Point is, people are more than capable of holding a grudge even that long after the fact.

Ah, that would make sense. Zelda re-asserts control, Hyrule returns to something akin to normal, Sheikah keep maintaining the status quo. World keeps on spinning. Somewhere, off near Kokiri lands, a single clan/training facility (waiting on Link's return) eventually births a strange little bugger who whispers to semi-nocturnal bugs.

Up to speed now, thanks.

Well, real-world controversies aside, I doubt the Gorons are going to be acting as friendly or welcoming as they used to. I remember in Ocarina of Time they were more than happy let Link go into the Dodongo Caverns, and while Darunia himself took some convincing, in the end it wasn't that hard for the Goron people to trust Link completely. That level of openness is what I believe is no longer present. I'm sure they're still maintaining their original treaty with Zelda and Hyrule and all that, but I seriously doubt they're going to be calling anyone their Sworn Brother any time soon since the last person they did, you know, conquered the world and all.

Yes sir, indeed!

Edit: good, but Magic imbued arrows will have to wait until the rp progresses, so that there is no drastic difference in power.

Other than that, eveything looks good. Approved

I hadn't given much thought to the Gorons, and their reaction to Link's corruption by the assembled Triforce.

Here's another thought - what would be the reaction of the Sheikah to this sudden change in Hyrule's administration? I mean, they were (amongst other things) the guardians/couriers/information network/assassins of the Hylian Royal Family, of which Link is not a part, officially. Would they have chosen to follow a strong leader that had the blessing of the Princess (at least at first), or would they have circled their wagons, wary of a being of great power suddenly asserting control and expanding?

Short form, what is the Sheikah policy on what went down? Kind of important, considering Cricket's background.


Shiekai are the ones who kept some stability in Hyrule, they and the heroes (which would include several Links and Zeldas...interesting thought) kept the relm from anarchy.
