#horrified. that legend is ruling hyrule when she's so young & also that she's wearing something so PLAIN

[hylianremnants-a]

LEGEND  /  zelda, of the legend of zelda.

fourteen during the events of the first game of the series, twenty by the time of the adventure of link.

when in the castle she presents as regal an image as a teenager can, as raised to do by her mother. she seems wise beyond her years & is commended for it, & she can be quite shrewd - she was one of the few to keep a level head when ganon launched his attack on the kingdom, which allowed her to shatter the triforce of wisdom & scatter it’s parts before anyone noticed.

she is, however, a little fucking gremlin.

boisterous, mischievous, a bit of a mean streak which comes from being a bit spoiled, being an only child. absolute card shark. don’t bet rupees against her, she’ll cheat.

her mother was the ruler before the attack, although she was pretty much raised by impa. her father died in a hunting accident when she was little.

a princess in rags, essentially, but she doesn’t mind. all her clothes are hand - me - downs & it shows. she was never too fussed before ganon’s attack, & had more important things to worry about afterwards.

not the pink - dress design of zelda. that’s fable. legend’s about five foot four in the original game, peaks in height at five foot six during the adventure of link, green eyes, dirty - fair hair worn long & loose with a simple gold circlet, & old gowns which, during the events of loz, are slightly too big on her, & during aol, slightly too small. can’t catch a break !

FABLE  /  zelda, of the adventure of link.

fable 🤝 wild woke up & the world was radically fucking different & they just had to fucking deal with it

was twenty - two when she was cursed to sleep, fuck knows how old she is once she finally wakes up, but it’s an absolute culture shock when she does, having been cursed to sleep during hyrule’s golden age only to wake up in a world of near - ruins. it’s ... very upsetting.

she also has trouble communicating with people initially because the language & accents have changed so much - she speaks ancient hylian, which few people know. she’s able to communicate with legend, who learned it as part of a royal education, but it doesn’t help her sense of isolation when she wakes up.

very girly, very feminine, & filled with melancholy. understandable, considering she’s in mourning for her lost life. has a sense of humour which was easily sparked in the hyrule of the past, as well as too gentle a heart for her own good ( absolutely cries over spilled milk ) but she’s a very good judge of character. caused her a lot of strife being able to see what a selfish bastard her brother ended up being.

very upset by how reminiscent legend is of her brother, in appearance rather than personality, but working through it. she has no choice, she’s one of the only people she can talk to.

there may or may not have been a link in her own time. who’s to say.

telepathic abilities like a few other zeldas before her ! they don’t all get them, legend didn’t, but she did. allowed her to reach out to other people through their dreams a few times, but nothing really came of it. good avenue for interactions, though.

pink zelda design. blue eyes, wild, wavy auburn hair, & a very, very fancy dress. a little upset at just how far hyrule has fallen when she wakes up - she’d’ve taken legend for a very well - dressed peasant at worst in her own time, can’t believe she’s a princess in her finest when she wakes up.

baggage up to her fucking eyeballs, probably, watch this space, we all know i can’t let anyone be happy
