It's not the game designers' fault. They watched too much Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey. |

Have you ever heard of self fufilling prophecy? |

Yeah, it doesn't really make sense logically. You wouldn't be able to go back in time to teach it to him for him to teach it to you later, because in order to do that you would have had to have learned it in the first place before you went back in time. And that would be pointless because you already know it.

Feh. In Ocarina of Time you learn a song from a guy who says he learned it from someone who looks like you seven years ago, then you go back in time to seven years ago and play it for him in order to make the windmill speed up to drain the well.
My point is that time-related puzzles in Zelda don't make sense. |

During the Goron trading sequence, there's a Goron in the present from which you get a vase...and you bring it with you back to the past, where you give it to one of the ancestors of the Goron who gave you the vase. Am I the only one who sees the time paradox here?
(edit: Maybe "paradox" isn't the right word for it...) |
