Summary
The Sages depicted during the prologue of the events of the Era of Light and Dark were ordered by the King of Hyrule to seal the Sacred Realm. While these Sages are not depicted with elemental associations as with past sages, the Shrine Maidens shown during the events of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past do follow a similar color style. Late in the Era of Light and Dark, the sages that Link rescues from Yuga, including Zelda, bear a closer resemblance to the sages of the past.
Sages of the Imprisoning War
Sage Descendants
During the course of the events of The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, we are introduced to Sages after Yuga turns them into paintings and Link rescues them. The Sages we meet in The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds are said to be descendants of the original sages.
