"Here is gathered Hyrule's bloody history of greed and hatred…"

There was a time when the Sheikah tribe was a whole people that protected Hyrule side by side with the rest of the tribes of Hyrule. We served the Royal Family of Hyrule, acting in the shadows in their stead to keep Hyrule and the Great Mystery concealed within her arms safe. The Sheikahs and the Hylians looked upon each other as equals. We worked in a perfect harmony to carry out the commission of the Goddesses, to protect Hyrule's Great Mystery.

But then, seventy and six years ago, a sudden and unjust conflict had occurred between us and the Hylians. The Royal Family turned against us and attempted to exterminate the Sheikah tribe, believing that we sought to betray them. The conflict was not resolved without the blood of my people being cast to the ground. It came to pass that it was the King's paranoia that caused him to war with the Sheikah and he was removed from the Throne by way of death.

Somehow, my people were able to move on from that time, though reluctantly. For the next few years, we lived again in peace and tandem, though the harmony that once existed was lost. There seemed to be a thick tension between the two tribes. And not long after, the tension caused the peace to break, and war once again erupted in the Kingdom of Hyrule. This time, the fighting would not end until one side or the other had completely fallen.
