Hyrule: Mom, am I ugly?
Legend: Of course not. You’re the most beautiful boy in the world <3
World: Mama, am I ugly?
Legend, not missing a beat: Very Much
finished this right before work too lets GOOOO
Hyrule: “What’s the Master Sword?”
Wild: “What’s the Triforce?”
Legend: -Visible distress
Hyrule and Legend : *prepare confettis and poorly made food*
Wild : what's all about ? And why it smell like someone tried to burn edibles to make it more potent ?
Legend and Hyrule : Welcome to the downfall trio. And Hyrule cooked honey!
*Wild shiver, terrified by the food.*
there is something so interesting to me that LU's most recent update being about legend contemplating the legacy he will leave for Hyrule and rulie coming out while the most recent TSWK update having Hyrule finally learn about Silent and his Timeline placement as Echo's link
like Hyrule didnt go into a lot of detail on echo's story on TSWK(he didnt even mention silent lol) but i wonder if knowing that there was someone in between him and hyrule and that maybe his efforts werent in vain and he did manage to leave hyrule better than when he took the role of the hero, that he didnt fail rulie like he (thinks) he failed several people on his life would help soothe him a bit

honestly silent 100% knew about legend's identity as a royal and hyrule's indentity as a fairy in TFH
beyond just me headcanoning that hyrule isnt nearly as good at faking a hylian identity as he thinks he is, i'm pretty sure that hyrule is the one link that has fairies as a random drop/encounter and the only other main character with this quirk is echo
and thats because echo has a literal fairy perfume that increases fairy drop rates by a lot, so hyrule literally smells like echo's fairy perfume and i think silent can put 2+2 together from there
as for legend, there is simply no way he doesnt know who legend is, not just because impa and lueberry probably thaught him history(and him being a sheikah probably adds a bit to his historical knowledge), but legend is his direct predecessor and is probably one of the biggest responsible for the hylian golden age that silent adn echo live in, is probably echo's grandpa and is historically one of the most important links atleast in downfall if not all the timeline, even if legend is humble as all hell in regards to his royal lineage he probably saw atleast a few portraits of the guy

cant stop thinking about how all 3 menbers of the downfall trio have a deep intrysic connection to an ancient magical legacy who has been historically allied to the heroes...
something i find really interesting about the downfall trio(Legend Silent and Hyrule) is that in a way all 3 of them have fought against the Hylian guard but each of the 3 have wildly different contexts for it
for starters we have Legend, he fights the knights after they were brainwashed by aghanim, legend is a mere 11 years old at this point as he is hunted by the knights he is forced at fight back with all he has even killing the knights in the process
after the end of ALTTP legend uses the triforce to undo what ganon did bringing everyone who died back to life wich has the added benefit of him having to look at the people who chased him down and he was forced to kill whenever he goes to the castle(wich is really bad considering he is the prince of hyrule)
there are several people who known more about legend and his games than me so i will leave the deeper analysis of legend's trauma for them but i will say its no wonder legend prefers living on his uncle's house lol
Silent fights the guard in his second adventure: COH and while the circustances that lead Silent to fighting the guard are similar to legend with octavo controlling the guard the context surrounding Silent differs the two, after EOW Silent's closeness with echo and his apprenticeship under Impa would mean his presence in castle town would be extremely often especially with the sheikah stone a few rooms away from echo's bedroom
while to legend the guard are strangers who are hunting him to Silent those people are people he knows, they are his coworkers his friends people who sworn to defend hyrule just like him
there is also the fact that while legend is alone Silent does COH with quite a lot of people, Echo, Cadence, Yves, Romi(Skull Kid) and even Impa(yes she is only DLC but there is no real reason for her to not tag along so i'm mentioning her)
overall i dont think silent and echo they are definitly skilled enought to avoid doing so by COH especially considering the group they bring to fight octavo tho i can certainly see the discussion around the camp before they move towards the final confrontation
of course now theres hyrule
Hyrule fights echo's guard in the palaces of AoL those being some of the hardest enemies in the game
there is something really tragic about it for me, the only way for hyrule to wake up echo is to destroy all that was left of her world, its to kill the last remnants of her era, hyrule is her savior but also the one who ensured that echo shall never meet anyone from her era again
