Who is the older brother or sister? Legend or Fable And who is the younger brother or sister? Legend or Fable
Legend and Fable are twins! (And to actually answer your question: technically, Fable’s older :) )
And while I’m at it, I might as well clear up the relative ages of some other Wisdomverse siblings.
Siblings of the Zelda series!
Prince Hansen is canonically older than Echo!
I’m following the AoL manual’s text, which explicitly states that he’s Zelda’s older brother. He just… looks young in this depiction, loll. I draw him a bit older than this for WV!
(Note that, after EoW, he’s mentally about the same age as Echo, since he spent two years in stasis after falling into the Still World in Echo of the Past. This may explain his youth :) .)
I don’t mind either way, but I like to write Linkle as older than Wars!
They’re not canonically related at all, but the idea that they would be siblings was apparently briefly considered during development. I like it, and nothing in the game disproves it, so I consider it canon to WV.
I like to think Linkle, as the older sibling, was always convinced she would be the hero— and that’s why she stayed back in the village, while Wars went off to enlist in the army as a common soldier. Wars was shocked when Artemis identified him as the hero. He kinda thought that whole hero business was just a delusion. Linkle was shocked when she found out, and eventually reconciled herself with the fact that she’s still a hero, if not the hero.
They’re only about a year apart in age, imo.
The Colors don’t really have canon ages— but I like to think their ages go in reverse of the order the Elements are infused into the Four Sword in Minish Cap, with Green at the head. Like the personalities were split in LIFO order.
So Green’s the oldest, followed by Blue, then Red, then Vio.
Vio is a little miffed that he’s the youngest, but he doesn’t really mind that much. And that doesn’t stop all of them from being protective of Red, including Vio.
Wind and his little sister Aryll form the second actually canon sibling pair in this list (Echo and Hansen are the first), but…
The original BotW concept art also gave Wild an unnamed little sister! I’m definitely not the one who first discovered this or decided to use it, but I’ve kept it canon to WV in this one small line here:
I like to think her name was also Aryll (since she’s the younger sister of a Link). Whoever she was, it’s likely that Wild doesn’t remember much of her— and she likely died in the Calamity 100 years ago 🥲
