It could be framed in a time where magic is largely forgotten.
Zelda and Link are frozen in time due to some great cataclysmic event in the past that left Hyrule in ruin, and thousands of years have passed, where the remaining people built over the remnants of the past and have entered into the industrial revolution, with dark and intricate, smoggy towns.
Zelda and Link they to make sense of this world, that ridicules their speech, their clothes, their mannerisms, but is shocked by their physical and magical prowess.
Zelda's magic is weak at this point, but it's enough to inspire hope in the bleak factory workers of the future.
Link uses his old gear combined with new gadgetry to navigate the steel jungle of the era, and find clues to the source of great cataclysm that happened all those aeons ago.
