[TotK] I believe the time gap between when zelda goes back in time to the zonai and the current time in game is around at least 40,000 years
Take this theory with a grain of salt because I haven’t played the game in 2 years and I never finished it, but I thought about this today and I have to share it.
So basically calamity ganon appears every 10 thousand years. Now the sheikah in order to have prepared for the calamity would’ve needed to figure out a pattern. So that means the calamity had to have occurred at least 2 times before the sheikah. So basically it goes from ganondorf’s imprisonment—>1st calamity—>2nd calamity—>3rd (sheikah)calamity—>botw calamity. In total 40,000 years between the two times.
So this already makes the already messed up zelda timeline so much more crazier because the amount time between skyward sword and botw/totk is astronomical.
