It seems like both Aran and Evan sorta hail from Rien. Afrien was found on a Rien like island and the penguins do talk about how parts of Rien's island is melting and floating away so its possible all legends will hail from Rien.
Well, of course. Where the five Legends fought the Black Magician and had that ice curse thrown at them is present day Rien (which may or may not have floated up to Victoria Island). All of the legends should have ties to something in Rien, but Evan's story has shown us that the future Legends don't have to start there. Aran waking up on Rien is obvious since he was a direct participant in the fight against the Black Magician. But Freed took Afrien's egg to Victoria Island (only for it to be found by Evan and hatch into Mir several hundred years later), didn't he?
(I wonder if there are any clues as to what happened to the other three Legends. I mean, it's speculated that the Pirate Legend was Kyrin's father, and I just remembered that there's this legendary Albatross/Eagle Eye figure in the Wind Archer skillset that may or may not matter, but it seems we're running completely blind on the Thief. Then again, there were no in-game hints that Aran and Evan/Mir would exist before their release, huh?)

While we're at class-related predictions, the resistance lacks a Warrior and Thief based job.
Honestly, I didn't count the Cygnus classes in that calculation. After all, the Cygnus skill set is about 70% identical to their Adventurer counterparts, while the Dual Blade/Wild Hunter/Mechanic skill set is completely different and are more recent, to boot.
Plus, I'm still wondering if Nexon Korea really did have all five Legends planned out from Aran's release. Remember that picture? Before Resistance came out, I don't think anyone thought that the Archer legend would use a bow instead of crossbow like the picture had depicted her using. Not to mention the Pirate seemingly using fists instead of guns. Now that Wild Hunters and Mechanics exist, it's looking likely.
Then again, if that picture actually does have any merit to it, then it seems the Thief legend would be using a dagger/one-handed sword + shield combination, or she would use something completely different.
