The MYSTERY of the Oocca & City in the Sky - ft. Zeltik (Zelda Theory)

We are told a legend in Twilight Princess of a race that was closer to the gods even more so than the Hylians. It is rumored that this tribe created the kingdom of Hyrule along with the new capital within the heavens that no one has seen or heard of. of them since he said that to this day the sky people continue to live above the clouds and the

mystery

of who this tribe is and where they came from remains unsolved to this day uh william yeah, what's up? I get how you're trying to go with all that dramatic storytelling and that's all well and good, but have you really seen what you're talking about?

I don't think her appearance has an impact on the intro of this video, oh sweet hylia and all that is sacred, it's like one. of the gods wondered what would happen if you mixed the genetics of a hylian and a cucco together. Are we really going to do a whole episode about this? Can't we just go back to the breath of the wild? 2 theories those were the days with that said that the oka of Twilight Princess are without a doubt one of the strangest mysteries in the game, also one of the creepiest things and that is a lot to say considering that we are talking about Twilight Princess, a tribe which is said to be even closer to the gods than the Hylians and to reside in their capital which is located within the heavens.

The

city

in the sky is one of the final dungeons of the game that contains the last fragment of the mirror of twilight. the creators of the rod of dominion, an object found inside the temple of time and used to collect various sky characters from the ancient book that was also passed down by the yoka and later used to restore the power of the rod. Oh my gosh, this is an area I'm squirming about, but who or what exactly is this tribe? Our best bet is to look at the content. from Twilight Princess, as it is the only game to feature this race, most of the information we need comes from Shad, a young boy who developed an interest in the race of sky beings, unfortunately, the localization was removed as suggests that the Hylians were created by the Oka. direct translations tell us a different story: the sky beans had created Hyrule.

It is a commonly accepted

theory

that the Hylians, the rays closest to the gods, built Hyrule, but the truth is that there is a

theory

that there was a race long ago. closer to the gods than the hylians and they created hyrule this should not be mixed with the creation story we heard in ocarina of time where the golden goddesses din faror and nehru created the world itself it is rumored that the sky people created hyrule and hyrule is the name of the realm, not the world it resides in, just like labrina and holodrum, continuing through shad's dialogue gives us more information about what happened to the sky people after the birth of the hylians and apparently At the same time the Hylians were born.

He built a new capital and floated in the heavens along with that capital and lived there and it is said among scholars that they are living in the floating capital somewhere in the heavens. This capital mentioned is most likely the one we explore in Twilight Princess, which is referred to as the

city

in the sky. Not only is it well in the sky, but we see it inhabited by several people from the sky. That is another detail worth the attention. It is worth mentioning only the location refers to them as oka, we will mention this later but for now know that oka and the sky people are related to the same tribe. the oka are without a doubt one of the strangest creatures in

zelda

with bird bodies. and heads with humanoid faces the two most notable members of the tribe are eight and their son nicknamed eight jr lincoln answers this pair as From the beginning, the forest temple gave Link the option of leaving the dungeon and returning later to the room it warped from.

Oko can be found in the following dungeons until the city in the sky, where the two will remain for the rest. from the game oko has no problem communicating with link he is familiar with the hylian language however the oka have developed their own language which to the hero sounds like chattering and squawking in fact the sound made by the oka is a softer version of the Wind Waker minimixes. The design of the ocher may have been inspired by a painting created by Mc Escher titled Another World. The structure itself is a paradox and in the arches there are birds with human faces.

These creatures are based on a real-world sculpture made by Escha's father. Law had given him in fact his first appearance is in a lithograph of a still life with a spherical mirror. Not only did the oka have a design similar to the sculpture but some are seen walking on the walls of the city in the sky similar to the painting. of escher while this gives us a possible answer to their strange appearance once you take a step back and really think about it certain parts of the story presented in Twilight Princess don't add up the oka were responsible not only for the construction of their capital but also From the ancient technology used to keep him in the air his technological prowess extends beyond the city in the sky, such as the celestial cannon used to transport the hero to his capital and the rod of dominion, a piece of ancient technology imbued with magic that the hero obtains in the temple of time.

It is difficult to believe that a tribe of this appearance was capable of achieving such feats, not only that, but Impaz tells us that at one time the Oka were in contact with the royal family of Hyrule, communication was done through the staff. of domain that a person held. who was nicknamed the messenger of the heavens, inherits this title by recovering the staff and uses it to discover the cannon of heaven along the way, restores the characters of heaven from the ancient book of heaven, a relic inherited from the oka to the sheikah by royal decree .

They were to protect the book and give it to the messenger of heaven and after generations of guarding it, the book was finally passed on to link the very fact that the Rod of Dominion is located within the Temple of Time, the same place where the Master Sword was located. . The remains are a testament to Akka's relationship with the royal family and the fifth dungeon in the game Snowpeak Ruins has an image of the city in the sky on the wall, military equipment and posters suggest that perhaps this was a sort of base for soldiers of the royal family.

This is where the messenger of the heavens communicated with the people of heaven given this information we can affirm the following the oka have existed since the birth of hyrule some time later they built a capital which rose to the heavens where they now live the tribe is closely linked to both ancient technology and magic and maintained contact with the royal family for a certain period of time. The question is what does it all mean, while Twilight Princess is the only game in which the goose appears. This does not limit our research to just that title because there is another group that matches this description the minish cap wind tribe these people lived on the surface of hyrule until they gained mastery over the winds the wind tribe then abandoned their own home and used the magic of the wind to move the palace of the winds to the sky where he now rests the hero of minish travels to the ruins of the wind where he ventures through the fortress of the winds in search of the element of wind but this was also carried away by Above the clouds next to the palace where the tribe currently resides lives inside a house that rests on the tops of the clouds and protects the palace from the winds and its element.

The elder of the tribe tells us that these events took place a long, long time ago and then a time before that, the very state of the wind ruins shows us how much time has passed. Since their ascension to the heavens, despite having the appearance of a typical human, the tribe can walk on clouds. Haley implies that those who are pure of heart can do it. Another notable feature comes from the color of her hair, it is simply red. Like the Gerudo, more information about the tribe comes from shards scattered throughout the game. A portion of the familiar stone needed to gain access to the cloud tops is held by the spirit of King Gusaf, one of the leaders of Hyrule in ancient times, direct translations of his figures state that he appears to have had a terribly good relationship. with the people of the wind who lived in the ruins of the wind.

The tribe not only has close ties to magic but also has connections to ancient technology. The Wind Ruins are home to many weapons which, according to the figure's description, were built by the Minish and given to the Wind Tribe. The Wind Ocarina found at the end of the Wind Fortress was likely built by this group, allowing Link to travel to the multiple Wind Ridges throughout Hyrule, most importantly, the boss of this The Mazal dungeon was built by the wind people to repel intruders, a mechanical being very similar to Godin of the Tower of the Gods. I wouldn't be surprised if the Minish was also involved in building this, as both Armos and Mazal have accessible interiors. a tribe that lived on the surface for a period of time until ascending to the heavens and who excel in both magic and ancient technology while also maintaining a good relationship with the royal family of Hyrule.

If this all sounds familiar, it should be the Twilight Princess' oka. shares these traits the minish cap is the second game that takes place in the unification timeline at the end of skyward sword the humans of skyloft returned to the surface and established the kingdom of hyrule around this era after participating in its creation, the oka built his new capital and ascended to the heavens if this theory were true these events are from the same race seen in the minish hat the wind tribe maintained a good relationship with the royal family of hyrule and then built the bar domain and sky cannons to keep in contact with them over time their relationship with the royal family deteriorated as connection to their capital was lost, the wind tribe then underwent an evolution to take on a more similar appearance. that of a bird and became the yoka.

It is worth noting that only the game's localization refers to this race as Oka, direct translations are much more vague with Shad using the term sky people, the localization probably got its name from cuckoo, as Yoka are used Similarly to the kukos, the player can grab them and they float for a while while in the air the vagueness of their name and twilight princess in my opinion increases the chances that both tribes are one and the same in fact russell tells us that The Oka are called the ancestors of the Hylians and the following image was shared on the official Japanese Twitter account of Zelda, this was one of the first designs for the sky people that was scrapped from what appears to be a humanoid figure, as well which I can promise that the argument that the oka looks nothing like a human makes it possible that improbable by the way here is a direct translation of his tweet hey, it's mauve, that chick who can instantly transport you in and out of dungeons It looks quite alien, but originally they would have had a more human appearance.

What happened? Hmm, I wonder if there is a factor in all this that we have not yet considered the twilight princess temple of time at first glance it is simply the resting place of the rod of dominion, but when you look deeper, the influence of ocher in this sacred land was astronomical along the walls of the temple of time are engravings that repeat throughout the dungeon and show what appear to be several figures dressed in robes, one of which holds the rod of dominion . This could be the messenger of heaven from that time when the royal family was still in contact with the people of heaven. and in the first room of the temple of time, right next to the hallway that would lead to the master sword, the following words are engraved on the stone shrine, the stone statue, the master sword and the copy rod, the rod of copy is the name for mastery rod in Japanese. version and its name makes sense since the statues will literally copy Link's movement.

It's quite strange that an item that only appears in one game is engraved on the temple of time right next to the master sword. You know, one of the most important elements of the entire Zelda series. and these carvings are found in both the Gamecube and Wii versions, therefore the canonicity is indisputable. It's clear that the Rod of Mastery is closely tied to the temple, especially since the dungeon uses its statue-controlling mechanic to solve the many puzzles. There is another pattern worth mentioning. that appears on the mastery bar, similar carvings are seen throughout the temple, each with a slightly different style, there is one on the guardians before the master sword room and on the larger link-controlled statues, including the from the boss room and another version of can be found in the bell-like objects used to transport the statues, the columns against the wall and the doors of the temple.

This is the symbol directly connected to the rod of dominion. Mostof items with these markings involve the use of this item at the beginning. At first glance, the engraving on the giant statues differs from the design of the columns, bells and doors, however, this is only a part of that symbol, the hole in its chest completes the pattern and the green energy ball represents the sphere that is shown in the others, their functionality. The statues they have with the rod of dominion suggest that these two are creations of the oka, they seem to run on some kind of energy given the way the rod works along with its color, maybe it's some sort of soul energy, other creations of the oka could include the armor inside. the temple of time and the two guardians before the master sword room, unlike the first, these two are powered by a type of bluish energy and it is worth noting that the guardians have a slightly different version of the staff of time symbol. dominance in them, the blue dot in the middle of the symbol may represent the permanent power source of blue energy technology the tower of the gods has potential links to the sheikah with its technology as godan what we see in the temple of time It is perhaps the result of a collaboration between the Oka and Sheikah.

There is also an engraving of what appears to be a stylized version of the royal family's wing shield within the temple at the top is a single triangle, a symbol commonly associated with the strength and while this leads to speculation, the circle in the middle may represent the power emitted by the Rod of Dominion at the time of the Twilight Princess. The staff had lost its power and was only reactivated with a spell from the ancient book of heaven. It had to be stored somewhere so that its power could be used by a messenger from the heavens thousands of years later without the need for this book.

A place where time itself could be frozen the temple of time the oka link is on their journey they were in search of the rod of dominion for its power to return them to heaven the hero was key to opening the way to the interior part of the temple of time we are not entirely sure how long oku was on the surface of hyrule the murals added in the HD version of Twilight Princess imply that oku has been around since ocarina of time there are images depicting what darunia may be along with several panels showing to a young hero of time to the far right there is a shot with two figures that should look familiar, oku and his son, in fact oku jr is the only one of his kind we see in twilight princess, which further solidifies that those shown in the mural are the same, however, there is recent information.

It turns out that these images were randomly dropped by tantalus without any part of the story in mind, therefore we can't use them as evidence of oku's backstory. We know that oku hasn't been in town since the agarok attack when she was the first. hears the news when traveling with Link, the oka clearly has some magical abilities that allow Link to teleport within dungeons, while they have wings, they seem to use a form of winning magic to teleport him, their ability to do so in dungeons is combined with the fact that oku can't use it to return to the city in the sky implies that the magic is limited to a certain radius the city in the sky is too far away for her to do the two possibilities I see are that the cannon was damaged after oku traveled to the surface and could not return or he had fallen at some point before the events of twilight princess if we believe that the wind tribe was transformed into ocher because they lost communication with the surface of Hyrule the second option It's much more likely.

Furthermore, Chad is dressed in clothes covered with oka symbols and his book has a full-length image of the sky people and the room that holds the sky cannon under the kakariko shrine has its walls covered with ancient drawings. of the oka, not only do they have close ties with the shika, since the statues above the sky are owl characters and the one below the shrine has an eye symbol, but we see drawings of oka combined with the symbolism of the triforce, too we see the ruins of the wind tribes combined with images of the triforce, what is more telling is the symbol on the owl statues holding characters from the sky what looks like the end of a trident that same exact image is found elsewhere the house of the wind tribe there is another symbol above the city gates in the sky that may or may not be from the same thing, the elder of the wind tribe also mentions how they are aware of what is happening in the world of the surface, perhaps through the domain rod, as it was used by the sky people to keep in contact with the royal family.

Another strange ridge appears in both ancient skies. book and the gates and floors of the city in the sky given what we know this could very well be the symbol of the Oka race similar to the crests of the Zora or Gorons there is one more symbol in the city in the sky and it is strange A lo Along some of the walls there are what appear to be circles surrounded by semicircles in a manner that closely resembles the Twilight Mirror and on its support a symbol that matches this style can be found both on the doors of the Twilight Palace and behind it. from the throne of Zan. but what does it mean exactly?

They give us some details about the intruders who were banished to the Twilight realm according to the neru, a group of people who excelled in magic appeared wishing to claim the triforce for themselves, it does not specify a single tribe that the intruders consisted of magic wielders. Twilight palace designs reference multiple symbols from other tribes such as the sheikah eye, the gerudo emblem and even their own version of the royal family's wing crest. With so many references it is entirely possible that the intruders consisted of a group of different tribes. , this may or may not include oka.

Two other symbols are seen connecting the two twin whirlpools at the gates and floor of the city in the sky that appear on the curtain of twilight and the seal on the owl. The statue under Kakariko's shrine is quite similar to the Twilight symbol behind Zant's throne and in a few other places. I hope you're still with us as that was a lot of information to cover. We're almost done with this video, although I wanted to do it quickly. address the other possibility, we don't know what happened to skyloft post skyward Sword, so it's very possible that some of the humans who stayed in the clouds became the wind tribe and then transformed into yoka.

It has been theorized that Gruese is the ancestor of the Gerudo. given his red hair, but he could also be an ancestor of the wind tribe or maybe even both, although I think this theory contradicts Minish Cap lore unless we believe that humans went up with Skyloft, then came down, then came up again like The Wind Tribe Minish Cap was made before Skyward Sword, a game that solidified much of the series' history, so perhaps the origins of the Zelda legend were different in Minish Cap, but at that point it becomes Very subjective what you choose to believe, so.

I would prefer not to go that route and that is the

mystery

of oka, the city in the sky and its possible connections with the wind tribe. Thanks for checking out this theory, it was certainly a lot of information to go over, but I'm not going to lie. It has been one of my favorite projects to work on. I would like to thank Celtic for joining me in this video. If you go to his channel, you can see a video where he and I talk about the ruins of Snow Peak and the many secrets of it.

A link to That will be below some other quick thanks. Go to Hyrulegamer for many of the cinematic shots taken from Twilight Princess. Thank you very much, Lebrelian historian, for most of the translations in this video and link for providing many screenshots for this theory. I appreciate you all, thank you very much, shout out to all my employers, you are all amazing. I post frequently on Twitter, so feel free to follow me there and you can find my Discord server in the description. I have been nintendo black. crisis and I'll see you all next time yeah
