I forgor my sketchbook so here’s a map of full Ordon on a sticky note! It’s not final stuff but I wanted to jot down some ideas
Ordon seems way too small for me. A farming town with like, 5 families? That’s too small for it to be functional I feel, and they probably did that cuz designing so many characters for something so close to Link would be too much effort. Which I understand. But it means I can expand it!
The Ordon we know and love is the “capital” of Ordon, and it’s called North Ordon. (Highlighted in green). This holds the ranch which is the biggest thing for Ordon, as in it makes the money for them. They also grow a lot of pumpkins and they sell a lot of stuff to Hyrule. They make milk, cheese, and butter thanks to the goats there, and the residents of Hyrule love it. Overall more booming than the other places
East Ordon (in orange, you can barely see the color lol) is actually pretty friendly with north Ordon. They grow a lot of crops that they trade with North Ordon, but they mostly keep to their small communities. They have very large stretches of land for farmwork and that’s to feed each other. But again, they give some to North Ordon.
South Ordon is some more ranch work, but it’s not shared with Hyrule and is instead shared with Holodrum, which is closer to them. They have pigs, cows, and horses that they raise. They don’t have a ton of farm land compared to East Ordon tho. But they make do. They’re pretty disconnected from the north but not too much. It’s more like a playful “we’re better than you” kind of thing.
The Deep South is the retirement place. It has a pretty lake, it’s surrounded by thick trees, and it’s where villagers go when they get too old (if they want to). I noticed there’s no old people in Ordon (and realistically there’d barely be any lol) but I thought it’d be fun to put them in that place. Obviously they have people there to get them food and stuff but it’s a peaceful place and very well hidden. It’s also where people are buried.
And West Ordon is more “redneck” than the other places. And when I say redneck I don’t mean “cowboys bein cool” and whatever. I mean redneck as in “I fear for my life around these people” (where I’m from, we have people like that and it’s fun). Obviously they’re not evil, that’s just an impression the others have of them. But they don’t like outsiders and so the other sections of Ordon leave them be unless they need to do something. Def an odd place. The black sheep of the province if you will.
