"...the sacred triangle...it is a balance that weighs the three forces..."
The Great Balance
We stand as the first and final barrier between the Light and the Darkness. Who will protect the Light? It is too pure... too good... too sacred to understand the evil that lurks in the heart
Who will protect the Light? If not us? Those born of darkness and light. We are the shadow.
With our power we will set out to protect the Light. With grace and goodness our hearts are filled with joy. We live for the sake of the Light. If we could, we would cry from happiness.
But we cannot cry. There is too much at stake.
This beautiful land we call the Surface... that we call Hyrule...
The Great Goddesses had left behind their sacred power to inspire us to reach the highest point of enlightenment. Balance...
The Great Balance...
Earth, Sea, and Sky.
Past, Present, and Future.
Power, Wisdom, and Courage.
Light, Darkness, and Shadow

We wander the plains of the human heart. Now, for hundreds of thousands of years we have wandered. The human heart is easily led astray. We have made a wide path for others to follow... Where are we going? It is too great... too vast... too unknown for us to ever be able to comprehend. This thing we call a heart.
We cannot paint the canvas of our lives in the myriad of colors that others experience life with. We do not know the joys of life in the light. Our colors are the deepest and most vibrant, even though we are limited in choice. We are the children of the shadows.
With great wisdom we will set out to understand the power of the Shadows. With logic and knowledge our minds are filled with peace. We live for the sake of the Light. If we could, we would cry with empathy.
But we cannot cry. There is too much at stake.
This endless land we call the Surface... that we call Hyrule...
The Great Goddesses had left behind their sacred power to inspire us to seek enlightenment. Balance...
The Great Balance...
Earth, Sea, and Sky.
Past, Present, and Future.
Power, Wisdom, and Courage.

We protect those blessed by the Light, those who will never know what we have sacrifice. Do they not know what we have done? For the ages past we have deserted our most basic desires; to laugh, to live, to cry. Do they not know? Do they not know what we have done for the sake of the Light?
Do they know? Do they know that they have forsaken us?
With courage we will protect those who had forsaken us. With the little strength we have we will go forth. We live for the sake fo the Light. If we could, we would cry from loneliness.
But we cannot cry. There is too much at stake.
This heavy burden we call the Surface... that we call Hyrule...
The Great Goddesses had left behind their sacred power to drive us to seek its light.
Yes...
We need their power...
We need their power to protect that which they created. Why else would they leave it? Why else would the not allow the original Light to wield their power?
The Triforce is not of the Darkness or the Light. It makes no distinction between the two. It was made for us.
Yes!
Light cannot outshine light!
Light cannot radiate through the vast reaches of darkness!
That's it!
Light needs shadows! It needs them! It needs them to shine the brightest! To dull the darkness and to dim the light! That's it! That must be it!
The Goddesses knew this! That is why the Light and Darkness are as different as night and day!
They require balance! Shadow makes the balance possible! Between night and day there is twilight! Between black and white there is gray! Between light and darkness there is shadow!
We are the shadow! We are the Shadows!
This is our duty! This must be our duty!
We are the ones who have the power!
We are the ones chosen by the Golden Goddesses!
Who are we to deny them?

We cannot cry.
The nature of the task given to our tribe.
Rule of three.
There's actually quite a few reused quotes in here, but I suppose you won't be able to tell right now.
I overheard this... they say that the number of sages is actually 9. I wonder if 9 has some importance as well as the Rule of Three?
