ReDead Theory: Sheikah guards? th-cam.com/video/eNJsfP_7lbc/w-d-xo.html
Some of the research for this video was aided by a Reddit post! Check it out, link in description :)
Link is not actually in the description. It is a connection to reddit.
You are by far the best Zelda-Theory-TH-camr i know❤️🎮
I think that Pirates would be a rather fitting occupation for the Sheikah who are supposed to take on the unsavory jobs that the Royal family can't, especially considering that these Pirates always competed with Tetra aka Zelda what better way to keep an eye on the princess, we also know that the ship belonging to the Pirate's has Sheikah equipment and skulls, perhaps they we're the skulls of those who tried to harm the princess or failed Redeads, i mean think about it why would Ganondorf go out of his way to wipe out some petty pirates and steal their island? However it would make sense if it we're servants of the Goddess Hylia.
Really enjoy the theory you make man keep it up
I love this theory then again I love all your theories lml
Ms. Marie would also be in the perfect position for a Sheikah scout to find the next hero. A school teacher would easily be able to find young Hylians that share the Hero of Time’s courage.
I think so too
She also mentions that she's too old for sailing the high seas these days, or words to that effect when she gives you the Cabana, meaning she did at some point, possibly roaming the world as a scout.
also In ocarina of Time it is also said that a house used to be where the well currently stands. So it's very fitting for the sewer like place under the cabana to be a call back to that.
@@MarbleThumbs also Sheikah have knowledge. They're not unique in this, but they have far more knowledge of the world around them than most races in Zelda.
Yeah you are right!
I never even noticed that the trim of Mrs. Marie's dress has a pattern similar to the Shiekah eye symbol.
Mecklenburg Falldini Me either! I knew it looked like a mirror, but I played Windwaker first and Ocarina after-so I never noticed!
I noticed it mid episode and thought he was gonna go over that.
Me too
10:19
i did see it u idiots!!
I think she's a Sheikah descendant, since she keeps her hair in a traditional Sheikah hairstyle (similar to Paya and the White Maiden's hair) and I always took the description on her figurine to mean that she invented a way to make her hair pink, which would really only work if she had light/white hair to begin with.
I honestly think he missed that point there. Either you bleach it or what not. If she's even part Sheikah then she'd have a chance for white hair.
@ He mentions that far late in the video I think.
@Costume Nitpicks, that is a great hypothesis! She would be self-conscious having white hair...
I agree. I was think the same thing as well
the symbols on her dress are sheikah eyes too
In ocarina of Time it is also said that a house used to be where the well currently stands. So it's very fitting for the sewer like place under the cabana to be a call back to that.
Also reminds me of Jeffrey Epstein island Little St James
True. Thats pretty crazy.
Plus the pendant is the "little girl lover" symbol used a pedo symbol according to the fbi.
Sketch.
Sheikah always work underground it seems
Windfall Island is Kakariko Village. The windmill and the song, which is a rendition of Ocarina of Time's Kakariko village, gives it away.
There's a loooad more evidence too! Maybe I'll make a video on it one day..
@@Zeltik Absolutely! You should! The ones I mentioned are just the most obvious clues, but like you said there are WAAAAAY more!
@@Zeltik please do!
@@stevemanart could you give some examples? I've always known but only went of fof the music, windmill, and location
@@BradleyKlein though it obviously isn't the same kakariko village as it wasn't originally built atop a giant peak. But it could have been where the kakariko towns folk fled to when escaping the flood therefore they would have opted for a similar design to the previous home.
don't know if all Sheikahs are supposed to have white hair, but maybe her pink hairstyle could be a way to hide a natural Sheikah white hair.
And we saw blonde blue eyed Zelda change her eye colour when she disguised herself. Wigs or contact lenses are probably not beyond their ability to not even mention magic disguises.
That was my thought. White hair would be easy to dye any color because you don’t have to bleach it first. That’s not even mentioning magic
M R You sure can with colored contacts and magic.
She probably accidentally used a red sock in the shower instead of a wash rag and that's how her hair turned pink...
@Waffleman2957 how
is it just me or do the ReDeads from WW look awfully a lot like the shrine monks from BotW?
I thought the Monks looked like Redeads when I first saw their designs, too
(which...they kinda are. Just not ones who are mindless and allowed to slumber/have a final rest before/after a shrine’s cleared)
Watch his theory on the redead and you'll start to question what they truly are.
That's because they are based off statues found in Japan near ancient burial sites and tombs and such. The WW versions are much closer to the inspiration source, although the OoT redeads still freak me out a little and are a on their own level of creepy that was lost making them more cartoony.
@@disgustedluigi I had seen it, but I also had forgotten if Zeltik made that connection or not and was just thinking out loud here.
The Earth Temple itself is a Sheikah resting ground and a Shrine of Worship at the same time. It makes perfect sense for it to be filled with mummified Sheikah on the grounds. When Ganondorf then killed the sage of the temple, the sleeping Sheikah might have been cursed to attack the Hero of were just in full defense mode.
You had the opportunity to say "Sheikret" multiple times and you didn't smh
(Good theory tho lol)
Mollie G. He also had the chance to say "It's a secret to everybody" but he didn't.
@@deviantartguy0 But he did. The last thing he said was, "...to keep this a secret to everybody".
what tf is Sheikret
@@hisokasgummu A pun.
Mangle Foxy smh I'm slow
I'd always figured the pirates that used the Forsaken Fortress as a base were the remnants of the Gerudo. If nothing else, that might've been a nod to their role in Majora's Mask.
I think that too
Zeltic: "The Sheikah are likely the most mysterious group in the zelda series."
the Zonai: "Allow us to NOT introduce ourselves."
even after a whole game about them we still know jack
Could be one in the same, also could be twili origin
Zeltic: "The Sheikah are likely the most mysterious group in the zelda series."
the Zonai: "Am I a joke to you?"
That made way more sense than what I expected
zeltiks videos always turn out that way
seeing this video just makes me want some sort of sheik/sheikah spin-off game of sorts even More. Even if it’s just BotW DLC or whatever
KumaTorey or better yet a full Zelda game with a plot that actually revolves entirely around the Shiekah which is what we all thought we were getting with BotW
sheik game! sheik game! the perfect way to make Zelda the playable character
Or better yet make a game where link and Zelda are on the run and Zelda has to disguise herself as sheik and you can play as both link or Sheik and maybe even co op then you have your link you have your playable Zelda, you have Sheik and you have multiplayer
A more stelf based game
Nah I prefer the mystery. Some secrets weren't meant to be revealed.
I'm replaying Twilight Princess, and I just got to the Master Sword in what's left of the OOT Temple of Time. Always takes my breath away, and it got me thinking. How about a video where you explore the history of the various Temples of Time throughout the series?
Piracy and incompetence seems right up the Yiga clan's alley. Though the more I think about it, the more the Yiga seem like they'd be the *perfect* piratin' for piracy's sake pirates, so they might actually be good at that.
Everyone forgot the Gerudo ...
@@nonoctoro4933 But also, is Ganon now the last of the Gerudo in the Wind Waker's side of the timeline?
@@firestarter6488 i always assumed forsaken fortress was what eventually became of Gerudo Fortress after OOT in that timeline, idk what would have happened to them though
@@firestarter6488 We don't really know, but we already saw Gerudo pirates in Termina so why not in the Great Sea ?
@@nonoctoro4933 yeah that make sense. But it could be both the Gerudo and Sheikah tribe acting as pirates of the "Great Sea" possibly?
2:46, I appreciate that he noticed the forsaken fortress used to belong to a different group of piratesbefore gannondorf
I've also heard the theory that the shiekah evolved into the fishmen, which is why they hold a debt to the king of red lions and are willing to aid link with rumours and his map, but personally the theory in this video makes more sense to me.
My theory on this :
The fishmen are those who weren't chosen during the flood, criminals and such.
They were basically condamned to eternal stasis before that the King gave them his grace and made them turn into fishes.
Why not both?
Shoots ancient arrow with the bow of twilight not so annoying now huh
I heard a rumor....is like the trademark of the ancient race. They always seem to know secrets.
Maybe both
There actually are 2 descendants of the Sheikah in the game on outset island, Orca and his brother. All Sheikah aside from sheik (who isnt actually a sheikah) have names ending in "a" as Orca and his brother do. They are both well versed in combat, orca in practice and his brother in theory. They state that Orca is the only remaining person on the island interested in swordplay, making him more likely to be the one channeling the sheikah memory and ensuring the hero can go on his quest. Along with the fact that both siblings wear purple, the official color of the sheikah clan, I think their inclusion and these little clues were meant to be a confirmation that the sheikah as a self defining group no longer exists, and as you said with miss Marie, they simply have it in their genetic code to Assist the hero and the royal family in some way.
The people on outset also pass down the legend of the hero, along with the tradition to wear the green clothing, perhaps there could be some shiekah influence behind that if Orca and his brother are indeed shiekah.
Or Knights of Hyrule.
He asked us to collect Knight's Crests.
And the Hero is said to appears only within the Knight Clan. (ALTTP Lore).
I definitely feel like outset was the place their ancestors decided would be the birthplace of the new hero when the time came. So they ensured a sheika/hyrule guard lineage remained in place. The fact that they say hes the only one still interested implies that even after the flood there was a need to protect the island. Perhaps the pirates mentioned by tetra were remnants of an age of piracy which sprung up after the flood. It would make sense that hostile groups would take advantage of water travel without an established kingdom to keep tabs. Islands probably had to fend for themselves for a while. Tetra's lineage probably decided on the pirates life to keep the princess on the move with no permanent residence and a new identity. Hiding in plain sight so to speak.
And another thing - Miss Marie and Link's Grandmother both are the only humans with the dot eyes from what I recall
They both have white hair (Miss Marie would need white hair to dye it pink and I don't think The Great Sea has hair lightening products)
Granny's hair and eyes she can pass off as being old. Marie meanwhile dyes hers. Maybe this Link is 1/4 Shiekah, and Windfall and Outset are the last bastions of Shiekah, with the Hero's Tale being a way for them to one day pass the legend on to the hero
Also of note is how Granny did somehow just... _Know_ Link was about to good. She was pretty stealthy from what I recall
@@Icalasari In regards to the eyes I'm pretty sure that was just an aesthetic choice. For me the zelda series has always been about destiny and fate so the cabana having a triforce I considered more an act of providence than an actual plan. As for grandma taking the shield....the was a giant bird flying overhead I'm pretty sure she saw it and knew he would have to take the call to adventure. Classic hero's tale. He gets the robes to celebrate the tradition of the hero but clearly doesnt care much/finds the clothes extremely uncomfortable, i.e resisting the call. Once his sister is taken he has no choice but to accept the role of the hero. I think there definitely is a decent amount of subtext in the game but at a certain point we have to remember that it IS a game and sometimes design choices are arbitrary.
For the first point, with the fortress, Zelda stated it was an "old small time pirate group" and that she'd interacted with them sometimes... While the trophy idea fits just fine as well, I think it'd also be fun to play with the idea that the small time group was ALSO some members of the Sheikah. Having known Zelda's identity and kept an eye on her. Ganon coming in forced them to scatter, however. While a smidge more of a stretch, and one that I have no real backing for because I'm too lazy to research, I think it's still a fun idea to think about. After all, what better way to get closer to a tight knit pirate crew than as a rivaling pirate crew?
"It's a secret to everyone" at the end... Gosh I hope that was intentional, Zeltik
If it wasn't he kinda loses a tiny bit of Zelda fan cred.
It was obviously intentional.
i don't get it
In the original Legend of Zelda some caves you'd find a moblin who would give you some ruppees and that's what he'd say when you walked in.
@@GrimmShadowsII ah alright thanks man :)
Baito, the new postman at Dragonroost Island, has a tattoo on his back that looks a bit like Vaati, but could also be Sheikah in origin.
Kakariko Kage that looks a bit like...
Yeah. A tattoo that bears a slight resemblance to Vaati. “Completely normal. Nothing fishy. I insist it’s regular.”
Kakariko Kage that reminds me... sometime in that timeline, Vaati would have drowned. He was sealed at the end of FS, so when he broke free, he would have just drowned.
@@Artist-128 The land beneath the water was frozen in time though. So he wouldn't have been able to break free until after link pulled the sword from the stone where time resumed once more, and considering these events were after twilight princess in four swords adventures i think? then it would haev been some time later, and of course, the king uses the triforce to completely destroy hyrule.
Also, Vaati is the wind god, p sure he could have just whoosed out of there once he did-
wait
wait
wait
wait
I just thought of something so im going to entertain your theory for a second and say this;
Vaati is the wind god, or wind mage,( i clearly remember him being refereed to as a wind god, and Zelda makes cameos of slain evil gods i.e the huge skull in the swamp of BOTW is a reoccurring slain god cameo, along with countless others we have yet to identify and or discover)
And WW has an island called gale island where you have to smash this rock with a hammer where the winds start to generate and there's a cave with a stone plack where you learn "Wind Gods Aria." Which yes, i know its the entrance to the wind temple shrine but why?
Why is the sage in the wind temple? and from what we know, there really wasn't a wind temple in OoT and WW is supposed to be a drowned OoT Hyrule.
Except that the forest temple might actually have been a wind temple. There is a theory for this; th-cam.com/video/q4CtYzyb2xM/w-d-xo.html at 2:44
From what we know about OoT, there is nothing to be known about the sacred forest meadow. There was a theory i read that it was a fort but from what we know about zelda so far, we can gather that nobody but Kokiri and indigenous creatures can go into the forest without becoming Stalfoes or Skullkids unless they have a fairy with them.
And if the Forest Temple is actually a wind temple, then why is there no wind? Why is it that this temple, excluding the shadow temple, not kept up like the others? Its falling apart to the point that the entrance requires a hook-shot. (Yes you could argue that its because we need the hookshot for the temple so its forcing us to get it first but hear me out) And considering we need the hook-shot to get to certain locations in general, and the overgrown forest eating at the temple giving us vines to get to other locations, makes you wonder, what if there was supposed to be wind there? But if so why is it gone? and why is this temple in the middle of the lost woods so that nobody can get there, in fact nobody could have built it....
unless
the Forest Temple
is actually
The Palace of Winds.
i.gyazo.com/53f1db3c2068b9cc86bac68f3042a108.png Is an image where i compared the entrances to the two
Now i'm sure you're wondering why i used the FTs first room as the entrance, and its actually really simple.
Notice how the bricks look //nothing// like the wall where the archway is? in fact the entire temple is that way, and it seems to be pretty round overall.
What if thats what the Forest Temple actually is. The Palace of Winds. Thats why Ganons Towers forest temple section has a wind theme and why WW temple is the Wind temple.
BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE
So assuming that the Forest temple is actually a wind temple, hense being so in WW, and theres no wind in OoT then why is it suddenly involve wind in WW?
also Wind Waker.
Interesting how that's the name. Its not Like link awakens the wind or anything there is already Wind dieties, Cyclose and Zephros who are doing just fine,,, except the little feud between the two brothers. But what if he does awaken a wind
a certain... other wind ;;;;;;]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]
alright im done for now. I had to end it with a silly note otherwise i would just keep going and never end this...
this monster text wall you created
this is all your fault. are you happy with yourself?
Edit; i just realized after posting this that i used the wrong palace and that Minish Caps Palace of Winds is actually square in shape and might fit better for the theory overall
malfunctioning Egoist YES, YES I AM HAPPY WITH MYSELF * laughs evilly *
You're good at these story telling videos that extend the game even more in depth. I have a hylian shield tattooed on my forearm.
Hmm this does make the Sheikah are very secretive.
Wut
How ironic
Makes the shiekah are very secretive, indeed!
Sheikretive.
They existed since before there was a Hyrule. They served the goddess Hylia before she reincarnated into Zelda. I was hoping SS would have given us more about their history but was disappointed there.
those redead do look like the monks in BOTW
I thought that the butterfly is reminiscent of Navi.
Where did the triforce charts come from anyway?
The same guys that built the ruins and Temples made them.
Tettra (zelda's) mom's mom' mom Zelda?
It says in the game before Link went back in time they he broke the Triforce of Courage into 8 shards and scattered them and made the charts
Anime King but who made the charts that lead to them
They were a gift from Lord Soulja Boy
The sheikah's secret?
They're ninjas

SHEIKRET. SHEIK. RET. NOT SHEIKAH SECRET. SHEIKRET.
Could the core of Joy Pendants be similar to Spirit Orbs?
just bought a 2ds and OOT watching this also made me think of the old men that was in castle town then goes to kakiriko after ganon comes to power. He mentions that there was once a house where the well is. I know that was in the past but also think that hyrule is doomed to the same fate over and over.
I think you're a bit too quick to dismiss the sheikah from forbidden fortress entirely. Tetra's line about the pirates serves no other purpose and is never mentioned again... having it be a seed for this hidden backstory would actually give it meaning. Plus, the shields could just as easily be actual decoration from the owners of the ship.
Consider the idea that the sheikah did become seafaring rather than settle onto an island; what's stopping them from assaulting ganon's fortress with their own ship and being defeated? Wouldn't they have a vested interest in fighting him? It would explain why the broken ship has sheikah symbols but not the fortress itself.
Also, given how many generations have passed since the old days, I don't think you can really ascribe anything 'sinister' to marie since the cabana island probably just something she inherited from her family. Given the sheikah design on her dress, it's a much more rational idea that she's just descended from the sheikah but it's been too long for her to really remember or understand what significance it holds.
I agree about the cabana island! She doesn't even mention even going to the island, it could just be a family inheritance.
Conversely, the Shiekah Eye being present on the ship wreckage at the Forsaken Fortress could be _because_ of Ganondorf.
There's a lot of evidence throughout the games (namely Twilight Princess) that the Shiekah and the Gerudo are descended from the same race and still share a lot of the same customs, idols, and symbols. The "Eye" is present in Gerudo culture, the Gerudo Moon and Star (of the old games) is present in Shiekah structures, and the Serpent or Twin Serpents, more importantly, are present in both cultures. This becomes more evident with the Twili, as their city is filled with symbols from both cultures; the most prominent/important among them being the Twin Serpents. Curiously, this image is used on Zant's clothing, the Throne, the throne room, and the Fused Shadows.
These Twin Serpents are also used by Ganondorf, himself; most noticeably on his cloak in the Wind Waker and above the door to his chamber at the top of the Fortress. Strangely enough, Twin Serpents are also used on Dragon Roost Island, although these are dragons in appearance. Now, the Twin Serpents themselves, I believe, represent Twinmold: the gigantic Moldorms that you fight in the Haunted Wasteland after traveling through the portal above Stone Tower.
My theory goes that the ancestors of the Sheikah and the Gerudo (once one entity) were the Garo: the inhabitants of the Stone Tower, the ninjas who spied upon the Royal Family in the "Kingdom on the Hill", Ikana. They built the Stone Tower to reach the "land of the Gods", and succeeded in doing so: they reached Hyrule through the portal, coming through to the Lanayru region's Haunted Wasteland. Over time, the Garo split apart into two cultures: the People of the Sun and the People of the Moon i.e. the Gerudo, the Sand Snakes, and the Shiekah, the Shadow Folk. The Shadow Folk moved east to the mountains while the Gerudo stayed in the desert, though both races continued to practice dark magic and, more importantly to this conversation, both adopted new symbols but they also still kept the symbol of the Twin Serpents: Twinmold as one of their most important.
So, it makes sense that Ganondorf would have the Shiekah Eye at his fortress, as it plausibly predates even the Shiekah themselves as being an ancient symbol shared by both races due to their common ancestor. The Eye is also very prominent in the ancient past of Lanayru, implying that the creators of the Mining Facility were also Shiekah, so it's plausible that the Garo came through the portal long, long, long ago and either became the Shiekah, mixed with them, or adpoted some of their culture. Complicated, yes, but it has always interested me.
Wow, um... Ok.😅
That's a book. Where are you getting anything about the originating race before the Sheikah/Gerudo?
The Shields were added by Ganondorf as decorations.
Who said it was a Sheikah eye ? It looks nothing like it ...
I see some sort of Trident.
@@KickyFut From the games themselves. Like I said, the Gerudo and the Shiekah share certain iconography in addition to their own respective symbols, and both have featured the others' specific symbol in some of their own structures. This implies a shared genesis.
The people of the Stone Tower disappeared; where did they go? They built the tower to mock the Gods and strove to reach the land of the Gods, according to the lore. After traversing the temple, Link (and we, as the player) finds that when inverted the tower allows one to pass through a portal that hangs in the sky above: this portal takes you to a desert wasteland ravaged by sandstorms wherein you fight two giant Moldorms called Twinmold. Moldorms inhabit the Gerudo Desert among other places in the Lanayru region and in order to reach the Desert Colossus of Gerudo Desert in Ocarina of Time you pass through an area called the Haunted Wasteland. I believe this to be the same location you fight Twinmold in Majora's Mask.
My theory is that the Garo - those who built the Stone Tower and cursed the Kingdom of Ikana - did indeed reach the Land of the Gods (Hyrule) and thus vanished from Termina. Again, the Lanayru Desert features iconography from both the Shiekah and the Gerudo, and both Shiekah and Gerudo structures and culture feature shared iconography. This implies a history between the two and - I believe - a shared genesis.
Glad someone else is commenting on this. As a kid I always thought it was strange that she essentially had dead bodies in her basement.
Could you do a video or a theory about the great dragons throughout the series sometime?
Just found your content. You make some dope stuff. Subbed!
Isnt windfall windwakers version of kakariko village from OOT?
most likely
No, every piece of land you see in wind waker is just an old mountaintop. Any forest in any village would have been washed away in the great flood. So kakariko village is under the sea somewhere. Long with Castle Hyrule the temple time, everything's under the water except for a couple mountaintops.
The bottom of Marie's outfit has a design that greatly resembles the Sheikah sigil.
I'm replaying this for second time just a year after first play through and it is honestly more fun the second round. Great game. And such an underrated story too Ganon has great role in this installment
"Link can beat the kids-" woaH there link
That bit you mentioned about the butler somehow knowing that a person named Link would come by, I personally just think that he is a shameless suck up to whoever holds the deed.
I loved the reference to one of Zelda 1's most iconic quotes "It's a secret to everybody" :) Great vid and great end quote!
There's so much new stuff I'm learning about this old game that I've played and beaten several times. I'm amazed at all the theories (and viable proof) in this video! great job as usual!
Here within the first 1,000 views.... Never been that close to a video release before! Gotta say Zeltik you have refueled my Zelda fire, I tracked down my 3DS XL and bought the Majora's mask remake because of one of your other videos, and I have my sights set on Link to the Past next, thanks to your theory video about Gramps. I hope you always make videos!
Y'know the Zelda series is one of the best Nintendo's franchises, you *can* play them without someone making a video on them! 😅
Play Ocarina on 3DS before you play M.M. as it is one of the best versions so far on the console! Link to the Past is fun and easy, if you want to breeze through a game without worries.
@@KickyFut I have played OoT plenty of times no worries! I just hadn't touched Majora's Mask in like 10 years. I do plan on getting the OoT 3DS eventually though just to experience that classic in a new way.
It *by far* is the best version! 3D, motion aiming, and *color-coded lines* for the Water Temple!! It was literally better than my nostalgia for the original!😁
@@KickyFut Dude the color-coded lines at the Water Temple totally sold me haha
Yes!😆👍
I like how you casually dropped "(it's) a secret to everybody" at the end there.
Most people don’t even realize the sheer maginitude of owning the private Cabana. This is a world wear everyone is forced to live on a select number of islands. There is even fewer habitable islands. And yet she owns one of the biggest islands in the game. She is almost definitely a direct descendant of the sheikah who is tasked with finding an inheriter to the triforce shard
Maybe he was referring to the previous incarnation of link as master link showing link may have been the previous owner explaining why a piece of the triforce would be heavily guarded inside
Except the previous link was the hero of time, who doesn't exist in this timeline since he was sent back to his original timeline.
Plus I doubt the hero of time own a island after all his endeavor to save Hyrule keep him busy I think.
@@kingnamor7777 And, the Hero of Time Link was sent back to his childhood, immediately after he, Zelda and the Six Sages banished Ganondorf to the Evil Realm/Dark World.
(seccond attempt)
Just another little idea for a video:
Personally, I was very fond of your strenght comparison videos about the different Link and Ganon versions. (I'm sure a lot of your other subscribers loved it as well.)
If you don't consider to make a seperate video about the different versions of Zelda, then maybe a video about Links "best"/strongest Sidekick/companion would be imaginable?
(Navi, Phai, Midna, Ezelo, etc.)
Possible categories could be:
- strenght/ fighting capabilities
- wisdom/guidance (how helpful are their advices)
- story impact (how deep are they intertwined with the progress of the story)
- bond/ friendship with Link
(maybe how annoying some of them are)
Hopefully my idea could invoke some interest.
Your content is amazing, so keep going.
That would be nice
It’s the fairy (butterfly) effect at work
You’d have to look across all games. For example, Navi is semi useful giving you weak points, and targeting abilities. Unless you don’t play ocarina for a while and forget what to do, her advice is useless and she’s pretty annoying.
However, even though she doesn’t appear in the game, the full events of majoras masks happen only because link was looking for Navi. So does that make her vastly more useful in that timeline and overall?
Aaaand Zeltik kills it again 🔥
What if the well in Ocarina of Time was where the Sheikah transformed people in ReDeads?
What if Majoras magic and song of healing is how they did It? Happy mask salesman did have the mask of truth. Majoras Mask has a similar color scheme to malice, and the lens of truth. You gotta admit its suspicious he could undo the spell...and turn a soul into a mask.
I love these Sheikah conspiracy theory vids so much
I really like this! It makes sense and there's no stretching thin bands to pull something together. There's plenty of clues to work with and it was fun to watch. I also really liked her, and wit would be neat if Nintendo ever confirmed or denied stuff like this!
My thoughts on the theory? Pretty interesting!
I never thought about or noticed anything related to the Sheikah in Wind Waker before, so thanks for unraveling the mystery for me.
I own you one, Zeltik!
Theories are amazing and when they solve mysteries, it blows my mind!
The Teachers Robes strait up have sheika symbols lining them
I'm so glad the TH-cam algorithm recommended me your channel. You make great quality videos so consistently.
8:46 Redeads also appear on the Ghost Ship. But your point stands: of all the places in the game that they can be encountered, the Private Oasis is definitely the most unexpected and bizarre.
And going back to the Redead theory video, I find it interesting to note just how limited the Redeads' distribution is, despite initially seeming like a generic (albeit extremely fucking creepy) zombie enemy that could probably be placed in any random deep, dark area. In Ocarina of Time, Kakariko Village (which has them in the Shadow Temple, the well, the graveyard, and a single hidden grotto which can be found by bombing the ground) and the future Hyrule Castle Town (which includes Ganon's Tower) are the only places in the entire game where they can be found. Master Quest added a few more in Ganon's Tower (though the original game already had one appear in the escape sequence despite being absent in the dungeon proper), and there were Gibdos added to the Spirit Temple (mummies being fitting for a desert-themed area anyway), but the most intriguing addition was one, ONLY ONE, Redead in the Forest Temple.
Even in Master Quest, it seems that they were primarily restricted to the places with either high Sheikah or royal influence, with that sole inhabitant of the Forest Temple being the only exception, and even that minor change doesn't conflict with the theory if one considers that the Forest Temple is likely an abandoned mansion, with the original owner being a wealthy person who may've been able to purchase one of these Sheikah experiments, or may've even been a Sheikah themself (interestingly enough, the Redead wasn't stashed away in the basement or some other fittingly dark area, it's simply in one of the upper rooms facing one of the inner courtyards). On another note, it's odd that a mansion managed to be built in the Kokiri Forest to begin with, and in the Lost Woods of all places. Did the mansion's owner ultimately succumb to the forest's course, or were they somebody who was granted safe passage (much like Link)? Or maybe the building is so ancient, it was around even before the Great Deku Tree, or at least before he was powerful enough to establish the forest's magic.

This is why I love your videos. I never really noticed any of this stuff. Keep up the great work!
I hope that the next Zelda gives a ton of info on the Sheikah. More than BOTW. It would be awesome to know all of the Sheikah's secrets.
I agree and disagree.
While it would indeed be awesome to know all their secrets, the greatest appeal of the Sheikah is the sinister, mysterious feel surrounding them. And knowing their secrets would completely remove that.
So I'm not sure that letting us know all about them would actually be beneficial in the long term.
@@SchrollShepard you're right. I agree.
I was hoping for Gerudo raised Link myself.
amh7912 Gerudo raised Link already happened. His name is Ganondorf.
Don't forget that the sheikah can also disguise themselves similar to the yiga
I see what you did there... "A secret to everybody"
@Zeltik thank you for another awesome theory video. Love LoZ and really appreciate the hard work you do for this community. Links to the Past and theory videos like this are among the best videos I’ve found on TH-cam. Cheers for all you do!
Another nail bitter video. When you drop a video I drop everything I'm doing just to watch it.
It's a secret to everyone! I love this and I think it could go even deeper.
As per the game's description, "these pendants are said to flock to those who spread joy, like butterflies to nectar-filled blossoms." I think she knew that only a true hero could have assembled twenty of them; it goes deeper than just an aesthetic love for them.
If she is the true heiress of the Sheikah, perhaps once upon a time a more militarized outpost lived where the cabana does now, but over time, with the threat of evil seemingly vanquished and the whereabouts of the Royal Family (possibly) uncertain, the Sheikah would settle from their zealous vigilance into a regular people residing on a mountain-become-island. As such, she followed them in that.
Her dress shows a remembrance of their heritage as the people of Outset Isle remember the Green Garbed hero, but as the eye has symbolically and literally faded from the symbol itself, they have lost their watch over the Royal Family and the people of Hyrule. It could also be that she's just a ditz who loves Jewelry and on some level she knew instinctively this was the thing to do.
Great stuff. I'm putting together a tabletop campaign based on the Great Sea (built from the fan made engine It's Dangerous to Go Alone) neither pre or post Wind Waker, so this was cool to come across. Thanks!
They hid the sheika behind the absolute BOP that is the windfall island theme. I'll be 80 years old whistling that one.
Damn, this is the most interesting theory I've heard in a very long time and it legit makes sense!!!
These Windwaker videos make me really want to play this game!
It's crazy, I've played WW a million times, but never noticed the sheikah symbol on Ms. Marie's clothing until watching this video, a mere 30 seconds before it was pointed out. It takes a scene that would otherwise be forgettable to avid fans who've played numerous times and gives it depth, meaning and significance.
Your channel is so comfy; I can’t explain how glad I am to have found it. I use your videos to help me fall asleep sometimes lol.
Not saying your videos are boring; it’s quite the opposite. But hearing you talk about Zelda helps me relax haha.
Once again you're blowing my mind with these galaxy brain takes here man, great video as always, wonderful compliment to your ReDead video too. The fact that I can be learning and considering new things about one of my favorite games of all time 16 years on is such a delight from someone who presents it as well and as articulate as you do too. Can't wait for whenever your next video is and I hope you have a good day
Wasn't the resort previously owned by the Pictobox dude?
There was even a picture of it back at his place
Maybe he is more relevant to this theory than the teacher herself
Would make a lot of sense - Shiekah are known to be technologically inclined, and the pictobox is insanely advanced technology
Maybe all of Windfall is descended from Shiekah, and a few keep the old traditions alive
Nah, he took the photo because it was pretty and that's all.
The pictobox dude is Link's grandpa.
I'm immensely grateful that you didn't include the ReDead's screaming. OoT screaming was bad enough, but WW's version of the screams, combined with their appearance traumatized me so badly I still freak out if I see them or hear the scream to this day. And the game is over twenty years old now.
Love your videos Zeltik :) they have so much effort put into them.
Good job, your videos are so fun to see nearly every week!
All I heard with this is that Mrs. Marie is essentially part of the Sheikah mafia, which I am wholeheartedly supporting
Awesome video!! Thank you for pointing out such important details that could easily be overseen!!!
If Mrs. Marie found that treasure chart in the Cabana, that would probably mean that she ventured into the depths below the Cabana. I think it's a little suspicious that she wouldn't mention the enchanted door, or all the monsters surrounding the island on the sea, or that she wouldn't tell Link about the undead labyrinth below the house. That is, unless she was a Shiekah herself, and had set it all up in order to test Link in his quest for the Triforce of Courage.
I'm shocked at how small your channel is because you produce awesome, high quality video's. I love this zelda channel :)
I thought this was overthinking it until you got to the sheika symbols on her dress. That attention to detail is insane!
I know it’s the “Legendary Hero” theme from Wind Waker, but your opening theme sounds very Lord of the Rings-inspired and it’s really cool.
Matthew Doel I thought the same thing!
Love your videos Zeltik, keep it coming! :)
Your theories are always a treat to watch
I think BOTW probably actually solves the mystery of the redeads. This was probably an experiment by the Shiekah much like Mummification, to be able to have them like on to pass on knowledge, but the Gibdos and Redeads, are either the failed experiments or maybe those Shiekah whose meditation was not strong enough to appose the corruption of Ganon or other forces.
Oh wow! This is such a fascinating video! I had no idea this was in the game, thank you for your amazing detailed videos as always.
The fact your ads match up to your video is masterful They come in after you finish your thought and point
Excellent. Excellent research.
Wow, this is a really good theory! I can't believe nintendo hid lore this far back in the past. It's amazing.
Didn't Heros Charm get moved to another location in the HD version, in the Savage labyrinth? Or am i completely wrong?
Savage Labyrinth, you're correct! I don't really know why this change was made. Maybe to have a more substantial reward for the mini dungeon?
@@Zeltik And, there are ReDeads in the Savage Labyrinth, which could support your theory about the ReDeads being Sheikah experiments/guardians, since they would be essentially guarding a Sheikah artifact.
Wow I am always blown away with your in-depth analysis'!
Maybe the re-dead’s are the old owners of the cabana. They got stuck in the maze, and got transformed into them
Dang. I never questioned as to how or why those redeads were down there...
Zeltik you in the top 3 best zelda theorists you really are awesome
Oooh the quote at the end! Such a perl!
Music transition at 5:25 was very nice!
You have such a great talent for making videos exiting and facinating
I'm always early on Zeltik videos, and Zeltik's alone.
❤❤❤
She asks you to bring her a large number of joy pendants, which are often held by Ganon's followers (I can never remember which names go to which minions.), so is it possible that, rather than just liking that kind of jewelry, she's actually testing Link's ability to repeatedly take on Ganon's forces? It might be no coincidence that she asks for joy pendants specifically.
Theyre held by Bokoblins
I absolutely love all of these little details in the Zelda universe. These games really do leave a lot of room for the imagination, implying a lot of this stuff, but never outright saying it.
Great observation love the channel very entertaining!
growing up i thought her hair was a play on the design of the joy pendants she loved so much, and she wanted the joy pendants because they might be worth a lot (like the rich guy post-second forsaken fortress visit sells skull necklaces for his fortune). she had the cabana as a vacation home that she spent a potential prior joy pendant-fortune on, discovered its secret (went into the fireplace, found the treasure chart, got out of there), went back to Windfall to try forgetting it ever happened, and gave Link the deed to get it off her hands after he had essentially paid her for it with her nice necklaces. or instead of the joy pendants being worth money, they brought her the “joy” of acquiring the cabana via their luck.
but at the time i hadn’t played ocarina of time when i first played wind waker, so i had no idea that the sheikah even existed, and it’s cool to learn about a theory that can be constructed with prior zelda lore knowledge because the impression she made on me was without it.
I love your descriptions of Ms Marie’s hair.
This analysis was phenomenal
How many times does he say "whether she knows it or not" or some variation, or "why would she have this private cabana with" or some variation?
