Okay tbh no where does it say that link is a direct descendant of the previous link?? With the way family trees go, wouldnt it 100% possible that links descendants could come from a sibling or other close relative?? (Cont)
IT SAYS NO WHERE!
Unless ur hardcore ‘medieval’ ignoring tloz fantasy base along with robots CLEARLY VISIBLE IN SKYWARD SWORD and running on the concept that “family marries family to keep the royal blood pure”…technically the numerical amounts of future Links and Zeldas you see.. wouldn’t exist.
So much as getting a scratch on their arm, if their mom or dad was married to a relative (so much as their cousin), would allow death to easily consume them since procreating with similar blood would most likely disable the body’s ability to heal wounds..therefore letting u bleed to death.
maybe this is WAY TOO LOGICAL FOR A ZELDA GAME..but this furthers the argument non the less.
It’s the “spirit of the hero” that matters I suppose.
