Origins

Hyrule was created by three golden goddesses who descended from a distant nebula to create the land of Hyrule. They left behind the Triforce containing a small essence of their great powers. The Hyrulians, particularly the Hylians worship this trinity of deities, and it was the Hylians who were blessed by the goddesses, inheriting special psychic powers, the ability to use magic and long ears which were said to be able to hear messages from the goddesses themselves.
