The Zelda Wisdomverse Explained - Wielders of Wisdom AU part 3

[@linderosse_yt]

Man, I always look forward to seeing these adaptations of my comic and this one is great as always. Love the voices, and the subtle editing- Tetra’s curse being bleeped out with a rupee sound effect, and the way the music stops cold after Dot’s little monologue about burning flesh- it’s all really fun to hear. Great work!

[@lighthawk3450]

Fan of your art, I just wanted to say that you gave the Zelda good nicknames. They're way better than what I been calling them over year's.

[@linderosse_yt]

@@lighthawk3450Hey thanks!! Really glad you’re enjoying it! A lot of thought went into those names, but I certainly can’t take full credit for them! Everything else in this comic (the Zelda designs, story, personalities, art, worldbuilding, etc) are all mine or motivated by canon, but the nicknames specifically were developed by the Linked Universe fandom as a whole, and I’m using them as a tribute. Shoutout to the rest of the LU fanbase, y’all are great!

[@willisrose9756]

Love both your comic & art style!

[@GalaxiaKnightX]

Lovely job on your AU verse here linderosse. Love how each Zelda interacts with one another. Plus their codenames are cute to. Though may I ask. What did you think of Echoes of Wisdom and of course that Zelda. Who'm I think Echoes would be a good codename for her.

[@e-mananimates2274]

I think I already told you this, but I find this AU pretty fascinating! In fact, I'm growing a bit more motivated to revisit an idea of mine where the Zelda from a Link to the Past teams up with Young Zelda from Ocarina of Time. A major factor of the concept is that the two of them don't really get along very well.

[@ZonaiHero-ul5nm]

0:54 Only Zelda could find a way to make graphs adorable.

[@sadv3]

My thoughts exactly. That line was so adorable.

[@JanusHoW]

Flora (BotW Zelda) is so wonderfully nerdy. That's probably why the fandom has latched on to her more than the other ones.

[@legionaireb]

Okay, let me see if I can figure this out... Sun = Skyward Sword Zelda Dot = Four Swords Zelda Lullaby = OoT Zelda (half-Sheik) Tetra = Obvious Dawn = Zelda 1 and/or 2 Zelda Fable = Link Between Worlds Zelda Dusk = Twilight Princess Zelda Artemis = Hyrule Warriors Zelda Flora = BotW/TotK Zelda I had to search the gallery at Zeldawiki to find 'Dot,' but I recognized most of the rest easily enough.

Dusk is the Edgelord Zelda.

[@Fan_of_The_Sailor_Scouts]

So, they're all Dreaming, & their Real Bodies can be affected in the Dream World? Okay. So nothing strenuous.

[@randomdeinternet3582]

If they haven't done it yet, imagine what will happen if by a random question about Sun's love life they realize that every one of them has a Link, would be adorable if Wild tries to ask them how is their Link because she wants to understand her Link a little bit more

[@linderosse_yt]

Pretty much! To be more precise, all of them are dreaming except the current host, Sun. Sun (Skyward Sword) is in her real body- she summoned the rest of them to her real era to help deal with the monsters guarding something she wants to get to. The rest of them have physical forms here, but their real bodies are back in their own eras. And as you said, damage they take here in the Era of the Sky will affect their real bodies at home :)

[@masterofdoots5965]

I love how it uses distinct names instead of just calling them by their game title or whatever

[@rakurai4953]

It makes it a bit harder to tell where some of the more obscure ones are from though

[@masterofdoots5965]

​Yeah, like, who is Dot or Lullaby or Fable or Artemis?

[@alexanderfarmer7315]

I don't. I don't want to have to keep a guide handy to figure out who every character is supposed to be. I'm sure it'd be easier to track if I was actually reading the webcomic, which I'm going to assume has a character sheet or legend or something to keep track of everything.

[@theinspiredgamer1949]

​@@masterofdoots5965 I know Artemis is Hyrule Warriors (the original, not AoC), but yeah, I'm fairly lost on the others.

[@indrastadaniel6123]

Yeah, that's gonna be tough for someone who doesn't play Zelda but enjoys the comic nonetheless (me). Like, I only recognize BoTW Zelda, Skyward Sword Zelda, Twilight Princess Zelda, and that's it.

[@Adrianucho_]

I mean, "Sun" is practically the reincarnation of Hylia, no wonder she's the strongest.

[@hope7237]

all of them are. They are not like link, they are all the same person

[@SodaFan270]

I would love to see all the Zelda’s and Links meeting each other. I just can’t stop thinking about it.

[@Ben-m9n7p]

I like how the links refer to each other by title and the zeldas refer to each other with nicknames, it's just very nice to see them interact

[@zer0w0lf94]

I wonder if the creator has plans for Echo to show up.

[@francoperalta5986]

Or Phantom from Spirit Tracks. I mean they include Artemis (warriors Zelda) a non canon version, they left out two of the mainline playable Zelda’s?

[@linderosse_yt]

Echo and Phantom are both confirmed for Wisdomverse! I'm a huge fan of the DS games; PH and ST still hold a special place in my heart. And I just finished Echoes of Wisdom and *loved* it! I have plans for both those Zeldas that I’m very, very excited to explore :)

[@boowho817]

Echoes Zelda solos. Everybody else would just be in the way of her wake of destruction.

[@JanusHoW]

She'd just summon a Lynel (or army of them, depending on whether her echo limit is applied or not) and wipe them out.

[@edwardtdm123]

Sun sure is amazing at summoning magic. ☀️

[@fictionfan0]

Okay, let's take a look at those charts: # of people: Looks like 4 Zeldas have little trouble summoning the others, with a slight edge to Sun (SS) and Flora (BotW), likely owing to their closer connection to Hylia. Dusk (TP) and Artemis (HW) are the least capable (of those who *can* summon, at least); I suspect this is due to their combat-centric roles, needing as much energy to fight as to summon. Finally Lullaby (OoT), is just shy of the rest, possibly because she had the Triforce of Wisdom for 7 years but limited her use of its power to stealth. # of days: As mentioned, Sun seems the most capable, though Lullaby, for her part, is just as comparable, ratio-wise. Dusk and Fable (LttP) are middle-of-the-road, though practice may be a factor, as mentioned by Dusk herself. Then it goes downhill from there, with Flora struggling the most at not even a full day. Just to note, Tetra and Dawn (LoZ) were exempt from this analysis because they're nonfactors (Tetra having spent much of her life not knowing she was Zelda, and Dawn being the least defined).

[@Leopez02]

I LOVE Twilight Princess Zelda! ❤

[@StarryThey-os]

Putting this here to help people out: Sun - Skyward Sword Dot - Minish Cap/Four Swords/Four Swords Adventures Lulluby - Ocarina of Time Tetra - Windwaker/Phantom Hourglass Dawn - The Legend of Zelda (like the first games) Fable - A Link to the Past/Oracle of Ages/Oracle of Seasons/A Link Between Worlds Dusk - Twilight Princess Artemis - Hyrule Warriors Flora - Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom Hope this helps!

Botw and Totk Zelda are the same person so that might cause some problems.

[@viktormadzov5286]

​@@Mrpudgy-pudge Ok, I might be missing something here, but echo zelda is deffinetly not the same version as BoTW and ToTK Zelda So why should including her be a problem?😅

[@l30n88]

@viktormadzov5286 If I had to guess, their drawing a comparison between BoTW link and ToTK, and Link's Awakening and Echos of Wisdom. Still, I must disagree, as although they are the same art style, I'm pretty sure they're completely different universes. Plus, I think it would be funny to see the other Zeldas be so mortified by EoW's love of tables.

[@viktormadzov5286]

@@l30n88 Ooooh, ok, now I see what he is saying. And I compleatly agree with you that what he's saying is rediculas. BoTW and ToTK Zelda are the exact same 2 years apart. There is no "merging of Zelda's" going on with that, so I fail to see why people keep useing that as an excuse. And we know for an absolute fact that Echo Zelda is a compleatly different person from Past/Awakening/Oricle Zelda, since she's never meat her Link before the start of the game.

[@greenhydra10]

Jolly co-operation!

[@ARTSONICFAN990]

Me: So many Zeldas. It's Zelda-ception!

[@Buffbuffrules]

I have 2 things to say: 1.) the whole invincible thing reminds me of my friends goofing off. One was pretending to be a fortune teller and told the other she was invincible… 2.) speaking of hosting people… Sora (from Kingdom Hearts for anyone who doesn’t know) ends up with like 5 hearts in his own at one point… he even has Ven’s heart with him for a whole decade without any consequences. So the Zelda’s should see if Sora will teach them how to do it…

[@jaquanmiller2526]

I'm still wondering if the Zelda variants would be great allies for the resistance in the multiverse someday.

To be fair spirit tracks magic was barely activated in game..like fully end of the game.so shes got the weakest (also.least.representation sadly) and exhos is to new since she probably wasnt around when this comic wad made

[@reneepociopa1422]

From what source is Flora getting her data? I get Dawn wouldn't be able to summon because she's the "first" Zelda (there aren't any before her), but I don't get the rest.

Question... Which Zelda is which? The nicknames

[@flowerpower812]

Can someone tell me which name corresponds with which Zelda? It’s kinda confusing…😵‍💫

[@orianefaton1885]

Sun : Skyward sword Dot : Minish Cap, plus Four Sword adventure Lullaby : Ocarina of time (Majora's Mask) Dusk : Twilight Princess Tetra : ... wind waker and phatom hourglass, of course Artemis : Hyrule warrior Flora : Wild (before the start of Tears of the kingdom, most likely, just like her Link in Linked universes) Those two I am unsure : Dawn : Since it talks about temporal complications, she may be the Zelda from : Link to the Past, Oracle of Age, Oracle of Season, (Link Awakening) Fable : Zelda 1 and Zelda 2, if this is the case.

[@viktormadzov5286]

​@@orianefaton1885 Thank you so much for this❤ Was just about to ask this. I am bummed they forgot "Spirit Tracks" Zelda though😅. A fun and criminaly underepresented Zelda in my opinion. With that said, a tiny corectipn😅 The Minish Cap/ Four swards and Zelda 1/ Zelda 2 are different Zeldas The first pair are seperated by at least a few in-universe generations, while for the secund its the same Link rescueing a different cursed Zelda from over 100 years ago ( sleeping beauty logic)😅
