He Literally Has The Caramelldansen Eyes - Tumblr Posts
I think what I love the most about the Lu fandom, is how we all agree that, not all the Links have blue eyes or need to be blond. It makes more sense that way, to why people know about a hero, yet can never predict that this Link is THE Link.
Best example has to be Wind.
He wasn’t born a hero. Little dude had to prove himself in front of the gods to be acknowledged, even though his name is Link, blond, green clothes and not liked by Ganondorf etc... (Not counting his eyes since some write him with green or brown eyes) Wind just proves that Link is just a common name in Hyrule.
Twilight having more reddish/ brown hair. Same goes for Legend, which is blond in the comic, but his pink hair in alttp, comes original from the idea that he has strawberry blond hair. A blond that, for me, tends to look more orange, and with that I declare Twilight and Legend as redhead’s duo, no I don’t take criticism.
Hyrule curly brown hair and green/brown eyes, perfect to hide he was the hero when he was younger. Sky’s hair looks blond, but with time I things it’s more of a very light brown.
Summary: The Links looking different is just great for world building and explains to a small degree why Ganon/Ganondorf could never kill the hero as an infant, one could have all the prove like the name and all, yet that can also mean nothing. Yes one could look at the bloodline of the child, since the hero needs to come from an Royal knight bloodline, but that can also trick you, most of the boy never even grow up with their parents! Not to forget that Time and Twilight had been adopted by people that had nothing to do with the kingdom of Hyrule.
And Hyrule was born and raised in a time were the royal knight bloodline was way more harder to prove. He had probably some ancient relatives who once were knights but at that point no one cared anymore.
The way the fandom explores more openly the aspect of Link not having to be blond, blue eyes a knight, is the best. It makes it more believable and it takes the theory away of all the loz games are the same just told differently. No, all these reincarnation’s are different people, sharing one spirit, and they are not just copies of the first hero.
