− | *The game is explicitly set several hundred years after ''Ocarina of Time'', and the backstory seems to be constructed in a way that no other games could take place between ''Ocarina of Time'' and ''The Wind Waker''.

[[Eiji Aonuma]] has elaborated that the ending of ''Ocarina of Time'', in which Princess Zelda sends Link back in time, caused two parallel timelines to form, with ''The Wind Waker'' being set in the timeline which Link disappeared from (the "adult timline") when he was sent back to the other timeline (the "child timeline"), implying that most other ''Zelda'' games occur within the child timeline. |
*The Hero of Time is mentioned at various points in the game, and is immortalized with a statue in Hyrule Castle. Stained glass windows in Hyrule Castle depict the seven sages from ''Ocarina of Time'' as well as Link's battle with Ganon from the game's climax. Some characters from ''Ocarina'''s timeframe, particularly [[Ganondorf]] and the [[Deku Tree]], appear within this time. The deceased sages ([[Fado]] and [[Laruto]]) also both belong to species from ''Ocarina'' that do not appear within this game. | *The Hero of Time is mentioned at various points in the game, and is immortalized with a statue in Hyrule Castle.

*One of the Tingle Tuner sidequests contains "The Legend of the Fairy", which describes Tingle's meeting with the Hero of Time. This seems to accurately describes Tingle's role in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'' and sets the foundation for the existence of multiple Tingles, despite the fact that ''Majora's Mask'' apparently took place in the other timeline as well as in [[Termina|a parallel world]]. There is another ''Majora's Mask'' reference in that [[Phantom Ganon]]'s sword is inscribed with the names of the swordsmiths from ''Majora's Mask'' in Ancient Hylian. | *One of the Tingle Tuner sidequests contains "The Legend of the Fairy", which describes Tingle's meeting with the Hero of Time.
