Author's Note:

Thank you so much for clicking on this story! This is only the Prologue and I really want to write more.

This fanfiction will follow in the Hero is Triumphant, Child Timeline. Please remember that this is a fanfiction and will not be 100% accurate with all of the LOZ lore. I will be adding my own lore to fit the story as well. It happens 3,000 years after the last reincarnation which is important to the story.

Prologue: Hylian Lore

Long, long ago, there were three goddesses known as the Golden Goddesses. These 3 gods, Din, Nayru, and Farore, created the land known as Hyrule and everything else around it. Before ascending back to the heavens. They gave the world a gift. The Triforce. It was made with an essence of each goddess and was crafted to resemble three golden triangle pieces known as Power, Wisdom, and Courage. The Triforce was so strong that if any one person, good or bad, possesed all three, they would have the powers of a god and their greatest wish would come true.

The Golden Goddesses gave the powerful relic to a trusted goddess named Hylia, so she could protect it. Yet not everything was fine with the world. Darkness started to spread by an evil entity known as Demise who was bent on taking the Triforce from Hylia. Hylia saw evil and hate within him and decided to raise a large piece of land into the sky to keep the Hylians safe from his hate and vengeance. Hylia, along with the remaining races of the earth, fought the darkness and sealed Demise away.

Many years passed and the darkness that once plagued the earth returned. Hylia decided to become mortal in order to fight the darkness with her light. By doing this, she let the triforce go so that it could be used against Demise. She left behind a key instrument, a sword of light, that only one special hero could use to help defeat the darkness. The now mortal Hylia and her chosen hero sealed away the Demon King Demise for good. But before he was sealed, he cursed the mortal Hylia and the hero to return every one thousand years to fight him and his hate to the same battle again and again until the end of time.

This is the beginning of Hyrule's Historia. Though it is not the end. Through trials over thousands of years, the descendants of the mortal Hylia and the chosen hero are reincarnated to overthrow Demise's rebirthed hate using the divine powers of the Triforce. The mortal Hylia descendants are birthrighted with the Triforce of Wisdom, the chosen hero is gifted with the Triforce of Courage, and Demise's hate is gifted with the Triforce of Power. All three live and reside inside each reincarnation respectively.

After the last battle between these reincarnations, the descendant of the Goddess Hylia and the other two reincarnations holding the Triforce, cast their powers into three relics that they hoped would stop the endless cycle of war and unnecessary bloodshed of innocent lives.

Though many years have passed where Demises' hate has not surfaced, and the descendants are nowhere to be found. The people of the land had forgotten about all this and the stories became legend and myth. No one believed that a power called the Triforce actually existed. The select few who knew of this legend's truth, fear that the power is growing and will one day unleash its full strength on the world once more, tearing it apart.
