Before I answer the question directly, I have to comment that some of the same basic spiritual issues that we face today have been faced by seekers many thousands of years ago. So, in a way, our sense that we are at the crest of modernism and breaking new ground for the continuing enlightenment is only partially true. In many ways we may also be so advanced in some areas (such as our scientific and technical understanding of the world around us), that we have become morons on the spiritual plane. A good example of this is that western thinking barely acknowledges the reality of reincarnation. And all of those spiritual influences from the past (and perhaps the future) are at the core of who we are. This mindset (not shared by billons of non-Christian people around the world) thus shuts a major portal to self-knowledge.
So there were cultures and subcultures and people throughout history who really understood some fundamentals much better than we do even in our post-modern existence (and granted they may also have been clueless in other areas). And I have my own personal spin on the Percival legend that I haven't heard from other sources. It is my belief that the story of the Fisher King is really about the journey to self-knowledge. That isn't the part that's so different. It's the grail castle and the Fisher King and the whole kingdom that is dying, well that is just a metaphor for us exploring our own inner kingdom and our own injuries. And of course that too is not new. But what I haven't heard before is that this whole realm is about dreaming and in particular lucid dreaming. In the dream we encounter our own character elements in the shadows which are both injured and potentially healing. When we become lucid by asking ourselves "Am I dreaming" that's where we get in touch with the powerful energy that can heal us. It's the truth (that comes from the dialog between conscious and unconscious selves) that sets us free. We have to take ownership in all of our archetypal manifestations in order to become whole and healthy integrated human beings. The Grail Kingdom then flourishes.
It is very important because is the fact about a real live story.
Legend has it that Betsy Ross sewed the first American flag.
The legend of Romulus and Remus was important to the Romans because it told the story of the foundation of Rome. Roman legends and knowledge of Roman religion was passed on to the next generation by the parents.

No different story. The Fisher King is part of Grail-lore which has become attached to Arthurian literature. There is a huge section of the Vulgate cycle devoted to the History of the Grail and the story of the Fisher King. It's also in the Morte d'Arthur.
The point of a legend is that it is important in some cultures.

The nursery rhyme was about Kitty Fisher and Lucy Locket - Lucy Locket lost her pocket Kitty Fisher found it Not a penny was there in it Only ribbon round it (To the tune of Yankee Doodle) I'm not sure exactly who Kitty was, but there is a legend about her at Benenden School where there's a room named after her. The legend involves her running, screaming, backwards through a tunnel but I don't remember why...
LEGEND
U use if the states or continents are colored so the legend tells you what the colors mean that's why the legend is important
Different parts of a map, such as the legend, scale, and compass rose, are important for providing key information to readers. The legend helps interpret symbols and colors used on the map, the scale indicates the relationship between map distance and actual distance, and the compass rose shows direction. These elements are essential for navigating and understanding the features represented on a map.
