    So basically, the 3rd Zelda timeline where Link dies?

    It would be somewhere between Butterfly effect that destroys the world and Hydaeling chosing another champion.
    There would be some kind of fallout as we are god slaying champions so a new WoL would have pretty big shoes to fill, but things would work out in the end.

    The Legend of Zelda has three timelines that diverge after Ocarina of Time (The one where you play as an Adult and Child Link). IIRC, One occurs after Link slays Ganondorf but chooses to stay int he future, another where Link slays Ganondorf and returns to his present (for reference the Direct sequel Majora's Mask is in this timeline) and one where Ganondorf wins.

    depends on "were, when & how" if we die say tring to free Al Mhigo in the new X-pac it give Garlean all the reason/power they need to stomp Eorzea to dust (especially if they save our corpse for proof or trophy) if we die in some massive battle against something else infront of say all GC/City leaders well yah MASSIVE panic especially if a large group of civvies also see it... killed while escaping Ul'Dah in 2.55, Heavensward never happens as told war there lasts for a longer time (as the Archbishop stole the key from us he couldn't kill Bismark before then or else he would have & the Garland empire would have free roam of all that tech, waring triad & bound 1st brood Dragon as they got in without the key). Now if its a isolated moment with say 1 bad guy and he & the few ppl who saw say nothing then the fallout is less at 1st giving time for eather a) our "Phonix" return or b) our "replacment" getting up to STR

    What some see as "distracted" is really "fathoming the unfathomable" - last words from an Ul'dahn Mercurial Chemister at the battle of Carteneau

    As morning star pointed out, Ocarina of Time splits the Zelda timeline into 3. One where Link wins and goes back to his own time 7 years in the past. The other is where Link wins, goes back to his own time, and the timeline he left behind continues there where Ganondorf returns for vengance while Link isn't there to stop him since he went back to his original time. The 3rd timeline is where Link loses against Ganondorf and dies for it. Each timeline split arranges where each game takes place. It's more split timeline rather than alternate worlds that FF14 is using, but the ideas presented here are almost the same.

    The "beacon of hope" scenario already played out in the Third Astral Era: the Allagans built their Crystal Tower, the common people rested on their laurels and stopped being able to work for themselves, and in the end they had consolidated power to such a huge extent that one targeted earthquake in Mor Dhona was enough to take out an entire empire. What really destroyed Allag? Lack of a backup plan.

    (Kinda makes you wonder if restoring it is really such a good idea, but I've been thinking that the entire time.)

    There is a theory floating around that a large part of the reason we're so overpowered is becuase so many have put their faith in us to succeed.

    Basically, we've become to the spoken races what primals are to beast tribes. The only thing we aren't doing is is forcefully tempering people, but we can't keep them from believing in us...
