i've always adhered to the idea that termina isn't a real place but rather a representation of link himself. and it makes me unwell if i think about it too much. to be quite honest with you
#mm#talkin#definitely not an uncommon theory but it makes me soooooooooo crazy i need to go lie in a landfill for a bit#the main conflicts all relate to things link has had to deal with in oot. things that likely affect him deeply#you control time and yet you're constantly running out of it......everyone forgets you and your actions continuously#you change shape repeatedly against your will. your body is always foreign to you like it was after pulling the sword#you can't save everyone despite being the only person with the ability to do so - if only if only if only#even skull kid's struggle with being lonely and forgotten parallels link's after being sent back in time#it makes me SICK!! SICK I TELL YOU!!!#don't even get me started on the mortality stuff#the whole game is like. fear and uncertainty contrasted with silliness and hope#and i'm sitting here like hmmmm. i think i shall interpret this as a metaphor for link himself#his personality memories and fears taking physical shape perhaps#delightful game!! makes me feel normal
