The Shadow of Link in God 2006

2006 Twilight Princess is a game that I beat in the space of like four days locked in a room with it. It was also very confusing narratively because midway through the game, actually before that, you meet what is very clearly the ghost of Link. You meet the shadow of Link when you learn the song of healing from Majora's Mask from that wolf. The reason he's singing it is because yeah, he is kind of a sad, damaged shade. So my theory is that maybe he didn't need to fight because it was peaceful after Ganon was sealed. Maybe there was some sort of law against owning swords or whatever. And he just never was ever able to teach his children
