Line 11:
** That means the Wind Fish is [[Haruhi Suzumiya]].
 
== The [[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Ocean King]] is the Wind Fish ==
* Whale with lots o power? Sounds like the Ocean King. He could be sleepy from all that fighting against Bellum and needed a nap. This would also mean that cross-timeline traveling being possible since this presumed to be a sequel to ALttP and that is stated to be Child Timeline.
** Cross-Timeline travel? You're heading into [[Timey -Wimey Ball]] territory...However, another popular theory is that Link's Awakening is the sequel to the Oracle games (as a sequel to A Link to the Past, but in no way related to Wind Waker/Phantom Hourglass), as in the ending credits of the linked game, Link sails away on a ship suspiciously similar to that in the Link's Awakening opening credits.
 
== The Wind Fish is [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] ==
Line 20:
 
== The Wind Fish is the personification of every Nintendo fan. ==
* Fans that would die to see a Mario/Zelda crossover. After being woke up, the Wind Fish tried to accomplish this turning it [[Up to Eleven]] and [[Super Smash Bros.]] came to be.
 
== The people and monsters on the island were fake, but based on real people. ==
Line 26:
** From the Meta point of view, Malon and Talon were based off Marin and Tarin. In-game, if you take the WMG Timeline proposal from above, it could be that Link was dreaming about the people he met in the Oracle games.
 
== Tarin's transformation is a reference to the leaf and tanuki suit powerups in [[Super Mario Bros 3 (Video Game)|Super Mario Bros 3]]. ==
* This game has several other references to the Mario games, and Tarin has some similarities to Mario, so why not? (So, would that mean that the "it sure was fun" line of dialog was self-promotion by Nintendo?)
 
Line 40:
== The Wind Fish is the Zelda equivalent of Azathoth. ==
* How long has been the Wind Fish sleeping? Why can only wake to music? Simple, he is an [[Eldritch Abomination]], although not a malicious one. He lies sleeping in the ocean and was invaded by Nightmare. Link, who is travelling the ocean, encounters a storm (in reality, the portal to the Wind Fish dream) because he is summoned by the deity to help him. Koholint and its inhabitants are simply [[A Form You Are Comfortable With]] for Link that got too real. Marin is "real" in the sense that the Wind Fish made her real, probably knowing the fondness of Link for her, and as a thanks gift for destroying the Nightmare.
 
 
== Following that, the Ocean King is the Alternative Timeline Wind Fish ==
* Is generally accepted that [[Links Awakening]] goes after [[A Link to The Past]], game that is accepted to be in the Child Timeline. So, the Ocean King is simply another version of the Wind Fish; both summon Link to their respective dream realms (Koholint Island/World of The Ocean King) to fight a malicious invasion (The Nightmare/Bellum).
 
== The Wind Fish and the Ocean King are both [[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Levias]]. ==
* Levias is a giant flying whale that serves as the guardian deity of Skyloft. In the child timeline, he just happens to be surfing one day when the Nightmares possess him, and he pulls Link in to help him. Or, perhaps, by that point in the child timeline, Skyloft's been abandoned or destroyed, so he's just a wandering spirit that still retains power, but has no official position. And in the adult timeline, Hyrule is flooded up to around the same level as Skyloft, so he's repurposed from a guardian of the sky to a guardian of the ocean.
