The following is a legend. A legend details a series of events we believe have happened or will happen in at least one timeline, perhaps even our own, but does not necessarily reflect true or accurate events. It is presented more as a story than as an encyclopedic entry. This legend in particular was foreseen from a direct observer of You, as most legends are, and so is presented from second-person perspective.
Usage
This template should be used at the top of each legend page. The form depends on the story's perspective:
- {{Legend|perspective=First}} for legends narrated by a representation of You. The narrator is You and uses first-person narrative statements with pronouns such as "I."
- {{Legend|perspective=Third}} for legends that use a third-person perspective. That is, pronouns like "I" and "You" are not used outside of dialogue.
- {{Legend|perspective=Second}} or simply {{Legend}} for stories that refer to You as "You," and never "I." The narrator may or may not be a slut involved in the legend, but she is not You.
Also, optionally:
|month= |year=
