Creation

“

“Before time began, before spirits and life existed, the three Golden Goddesses descended upon chaos. Din, with her strong flaming arms, cultivated the land and created the red earth. Nayru poured her wisdom onto the earth and gave the spirit of law to the world. Farore, with her rich soul, produced all life forms who would uphold the law. After these goddesses finished their work, they left the world, but not before creating a symbol of their strength, a trio of golden triangles which together could become known as the Triforce.”

• A small but powerful portion of the essence of the gods is still held within the mighty Triforce. According to legend, the goddess Hylia was trusted by the Golden Goddesses to guard such a holy and powerful item after their departure.
• It is generally believed the Golden Goddesses created not only the Light World but all realms that ever could or would be as well as the origin of all creatures that would come to exist.

Primordial War

• A great battle was waged between the Demon King Demise and the Goddess Hylia, possibly including monsters fighting on the side of demise and mortals fighting on the side of Hylia. This conflict is said to have literally changed the shape of the world due to the power both beings held at their peak, and so many creatures were wiped out that it no doubt shaped every generation which followed.
• At some point in time near this conflict, perhaps even during it, Hylia sent the Triforce and the progenitors of the hylian race on an outcrop of earth she flung into the sky. It is this rock that would go onto become the group of sky-lands which still exist today, most notably Skyloft. It is unknown if other skyborn races, such as the Wind Tribe and the Oocca, were also sent the sky by Hylia at this time.
• Although Hylia managed to seal Demise, she knew the seal would not hold forever, and she herself was gravely wounded. Hylia devised a plan which included creating the blade that would evolve to become the blade of evil's bane, the Master Sword, and the spirit within it. As the Triforce could not be wielded by a god, Hylia renounced divinity and transferred her soul to the body of a mortal who would come of age when Demise returned.
