The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is the upcoming twentieth main installment in The Legend of Zelda series. The game is scheduled to be released on May 12, 2023, on the Nintendo Switch.
"Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom", as a game of great concern to all players and even to the entire game industry, has naturally caused discussions among countless players after the game's release time was fixed, and even players have given it the honor of "Game of the Year 2023" in advance.
As a loyal Zelda player, I will give you an analysis today according to the currently known information to see whether the Legend of Zelda 2: Tears of the Kingdom is worth looking forward to!
The picture of the tail snake on the cover is vast.
Just as the article can be analyzed from the title, most of the games can be seen from its game cover content.
The tears of the kingdom used the logo of "Ouroboros," a symbol that has been circulating for a long time since ancient times. It has appeared in many religions, myths, and alchemy.
Plato even commented that "Ouroboros" is the perfect creature in the world, and the primary meaning of "Ouroboros" is "Loop."
From here, we can see that the story of the tears of the whole kingdom has a lot to do with the particularly fashionable "time cycle" in recent years.
And before that, another famous work of Zelda, The Legend of Zelda: The Flute of Time, is a story about going to the future. So this time, it is likely to return to an era older than the Breath of the wilderness!
According to the current way of traversing the novel, this time travel may even encounter Ganondorf (the predecessor of Ganondorf in the wilderness and the legendary figure 10000 years ago). Link defeated Ganondorf and sealed it, and then left the master sword to Link now.
It is a cycle that the ancient times and the ancient times go back and forth; The future of "Flute of Time" and the past of "Tears of the Kingdom" is also a cycle. If this game can complete the linkage with "Flute of Time," then the whole story of Zelda legend will be sublimated and become a legend in the game's history!
Zuonau, a super ancient force
If it is only a guess that the logo "Ouroboros" may be related to time travel, then the clue about Zuonau people in this propaganda PV, crossing back to the super ancient times, can basically be concluded.
Zuonau is a super ancient civilization that appeared in the wilderness, and its existence may even be earlier than the goddess Hailia. After the three golden goddesses who transformed Hailaru left the world, Hailia took charge of guarding Hailaru.
It is recorded in the Master's Book that part of the relics in the game of Breath in the wilderness came from Zuonau nationality. In addition, there are three familiar mural images in the relics of this race, namely owls, dragons, and wild boars, which represent the wisdom, courage, and strength of the Three Goddesses of Creation.
Speculation of the Tears of the Kingdom
If the story is really written in this way, the level of Kingdom Tears is exciting, so according to the above content, I will guess the whole story structure of the game.
After the creation of the Three Goddesses of Creation, the first race created by the Goddess of Courage is likely to be Zuonau, and even the first choice of the guardian who intends to leave the Hailaru world is not the Goddess of Hailia, but Zuonau.
However, due to some unknown willingness, the Zuonau nationality, which was in its heyday, was destroyed, so the Three Goddesses of Creation had to leave their most robust artifact "Holy Triangle," in Hailaru and then arrange two Goddesses of Light and Soul to guard it.
If Princess Zelda represents wisdom and Warrior Link represents courage, it is likely that Gaynodorf, before the mutation, is the representative of strength, and these three people have a very close relationship with Zuonau.
However, with the flow of time, the past glories and stories have been buried in the ruins. This game is to solve the crisis of the whole Hailaru continent at the source when Linke returned to the super ancient times and returned to the time when Zuonau still existed.
The above is my little guess about the whole story of "Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom" through the currently known information. Welcome to come back for comparison after the game is released next year. See you next time!
