Did you forget the ending to OoT? :)
When GANON is destroyed and Gannondorf is sealed in to the Sacred Realm, Link, as the Hero of Time and Zelda as the Sage of Wisdom, no longer exist. That's why they see nothing but clouds. They're now 'normal' people, and Zelda sends you back in time to your childhood.
Some things are a constant though, even though you're back as a child the Great Deku tree is still dead and a sprout has started, Zora's domain is still frozen over and the sage's living forms are still dead but now protect Hyrule in your place. Hyrule will now experience peace for a few hundred years, until Agahnim appears.
but then just weeks after you returned to your childhood, walking through the forest with a young Epona, Young Link is attacked and the Ocarina of Time and Epona are stolen. Link runs after and enters a strange world. I believe that world is limbo or a kind of after life. By stopping the moon and helping every person in this land and returning the Majora's Mask to the mask salesman he is granted passage out of the after life. Then, as a young teenager, while riding on Epona through the countryside, the Hero of Time finds himself at a temple where the Triforce asks to prove himself, he agrees and a new adventure begins.
So the place the Hero of Time was seen last in was the Oracle games. OoT, MM and Oracle Series, happened within years of eachother. But the Link in LttP is not the Hero of Time, it is a new Link.
This Link had only two adventures; LttP and LA. And I think LA takes place in the Sacred Realm thousands of years after Wind Waker. He's on an island that is surrounded by an endless ocean and the people on this island have never heard of another island or seen anyone from another island, but a woman who looks like Zelda is there as well as other people that look like people from Hyrule. After Link awakens the Windfish (Wind Waker?) he is taken back to Hyrule oceans.
So that's the last time we saw that Hero. I'm hoping the next GC Zelda takes place where that one left off.
I think this is the timeline for every Zelda game:
The Adventures of Link
The Legend of Zelda
---
New GC Legend of Zelda?
Link's Awakening - Sacred Realm
Link to the Past
---
Wind Waker - Sacred Realm
---
The Oracle Series - Sacred Realm
Majora's Mask
Ocarina of Time
---
Four Swords Adventures - Sacred Realm
Minish Cap - Sacred Realm (not totally sure yet)
