Tears of the Kingdom is the first time the Zelda series has produced a direct, it’s-the-same-Link-we-swear-you-guys sequel since 2007’s Phantom Hourglass, so this is probably many contemporary fans’ first turn on this particular merry-go-round.

Allow me to assure you: there is no great mystery, and there is no master plan. Every worldbuilding inconsistency and every bit of timeline weirdness between Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom is purely a product of the fact that the Zelda franchise’s writers have the creative impulse control of a pack of squirrels, and don’t give a single solitary fuck about continuity.

When you accept that this is true, and you see how cavalierly they’re willing to treat continuity even between two games which are ostensibly direct sequels starring the same cast of characters and set just a few years apart, you may begin to understand why the timeline of the series as a whole looks the way that it does.

i get your point. I promise you I do. But where the HELL did all the shieka tech go. The guardians i can see being all scrapped (impressive they all got got), the towers could sink back into the ground…but please god just give me ONE BOOK telling me the divine beasts left hyrule as a final will of the champions! or something! HOW DO YOU LOSE FOUR GIANT ROBOT ANIMALS?!

I mean, we can fanwank whatever justification we want, but the real answer is that it didn’t “go” anywhere. It retroactively never existed.

In Breath of the Wild’s continuity, the Ancients are all-but-explicitly stated to be the ancestors of the modern Sheikah people, so it makes sense that all the Ancient tech that’s lying around is Sheikah-made.

In Tears of the Kingdom’s continuity, the writers decided they had a better idea, and now the Ancients are – and, critically, always have been – an Ancient Aliens/UFOology-inspired culture called the Zonai.

Obviously, the surviving Ancient tech can’t possibly be Sheikah-made if the Ancients were the Zonai. Any suggestion to the contrary is clearly the product of your over-active imagination.
