So, you know Ganon/dorf from Legend of Zelda series, right? Now, I do have this theory that Ganon (the recurring dark monster) isn't really connected to Ganondorf per se. The theory goes that Ganon by itself can be interpreted as a Hyrulean world roughly meaning 'Adversary' (Satan parallers anyone?). It might tell you something about Ganondorf to style his name after said entity in the first place. At the end of OoT, him turning into Ganon in first place is more like allowing himself to be possessed by it, evidently as a last resort to make sure Link stays dead. He does it again by the time of Twilight Princess but here he evidently has enough will to eventually banish Ganon from his body in order to fight Link as himself and this would be Ganondorf's downfall. As for what happened to Ganon afterwards, I'm not really sure. But it's quite possible it eventually became the Calamity Ganon as seen in Breath of the Wild. Assuming that it's supposed to be set in the same timeline in first place.
