•Goddess Hylia and the Battle Against Evil

As time passed by, the Era of the Goddess Hylia begun. From the depths of the earth, evil creatures arose with its sights set on the Triforce. This evil was the fearsome demon tribe and their leader Demise, who with his vast power sought to rule the world.

To protect the Triforce from falling into the hands of the demon tribe, Goddess Hylia sent it skyward along with the remaining humans. Then, to separate sky and earth, she sealed the surface with a sea of clouds.

The Goddess and the tribes left on the surface, put their lives at stake to successfully seal away Demise.

•The Goddess’ Sealing of the Surface

The surface had escaped destruction, but it was clear that the seal wouldn’t be able to last forever. Thus, Hylia decided to try to exterminate Demise with the power of the Triforce.

She instructed Impa of the Sheikah tribe to watch over the seal after her death.
