Hylian Items and Artifacts


items

Origins

Hyrule is a land blessed with many mystical treasures that give the bearers strange and often useful powers. Many of these objects are long lost, buried deep within the ancient dungeons and palaces that the entrances to are long forgotton. However their uses are well documented in old Hylian scriptures.

They have aided many an intrepid adventurer on their worthy quests, but in the wrong hands these objects often prove dangerous, for example in the story where Ganondorf took the spiritual stones to open the Door of Time. Others, like the Master Sword can only be handled by those who are indeed worthy of their powers, such as the hero Link.
