I had a similar reaction in Link to the Past a few years earlier (lemmy.world)

Which seems weird when you think about it. Has he been passed out there for 7 years? How did he stay alive? Where did he get clothes that fit?

The sages used their advanced technology to send Link into a divergent timeline but had to massively simplify their explanation for refugee child living in the woods.

So does he have memories of the past 7 years or did he just take the place of the adult Link in that timeline?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I like to think that his memory is linear and if he goes from (a) young to (b) adult and back to (c) young, his knowledge goes from a ➡️ a+b ➡️ a+b+c. So, his age is sort of irrelevant.

And that is why he’s called the hero of time.

I’m with you on this one.

And why can he not use the Kokiri Sword as a dagger? It's like he's not even trying

I imagine he could, but why would he? He's got a perfectly good sword right there!
