Chapter 5

History of the Dark God's

In the beginning...There was nothing. As you know. Blah blahblah. The goddesses appeared, and thought 'zomgz! let's create a word to rule!'. But, believe it or not, they were not lesbians; nor were they asexual. They were straight, or so the story goes, and they decided, before they created Hyrule, to make three for them to wed. Din, Goddess of Power and Fire, Created Infagra, the Male God of Anger and Fire. Nayru, Goddess of Wisdom and Water, created Hydrosa, The Male God of of Slyness and Water. And Farore, the Goddess of Courage and the Forest, created Gerimia, God of . And so, the six created the world, and were happy. Well. The females were. But the gods were not. They had heard what the Goddesses call themselves...The Triforce. Tri, as far as they remembered, meant three. So the males were bitter...They seperated from thier female counterparts, and created The World Below, The Netherworld, and they created every fiend in the world. They decided to pervert the name and symbol of the Triforce.

They became The Dark Triforce, with thier symbol being an upside down, blood red Triforce. And so, the three have continued to survey all evil, seeing all evils as equals, save for those they chose as thier champions. Which was rare, let me tell you.

Millenia past. And then, The Triforce had thier Champions. Ganondorf, Link, and Zelda. The odd thing was, however, that the Triforce of Power had found its way into the hands of the King of Evil. Gerimia decided that no stronger champion could be found than Link...Or could there? The three combined there magics, and once more perveted the Triforce. They created...The Shadows.

Shadow Link was given The Dark Triforce of Courage, the blood red triangle resting on his hand.

Shadow Zelda was given The Dark Triforce of Wisdom, her hand similarly marked.

And yet, Infagra refused to accept a champion. Or, if he did, it was kept quiet from the other two...

And so, to this day, the Dark Triforce exists, fueling all evil thoughts. Every piece of anger you ever thought of was fueled by Infagra. Every piece of crafty slyness you ever felt course through you was planted there by Hydrosa. And the seeds of wreckless bravery that seemed 'noble' and 'good', but really only served you, were all placed by Gerimia.

The Dark Triforce is within you, wether you embrace it or not.
