Triforce: Difference between revisions

The Triforce is a huge source of power, sometimes referred to as the golden source of power. It combines the three parts of power, courage, and wisdom to create an earthly power. The one who possesses it gets his or her wishes granted to them, with no matter about their intentions. The Triforce plays many roles in [[Hyrule]], even seen on the crest of the Royal Family, or the [[Royal Crest]]. Its dynamic power makes it inevitable. Although it may be seen as all-mighty and good, it might serve as a corrupted power after all. The Triforce is the reason for the wars, battles, and fights fought across Hyrule. This can be evidenced through the interactions of various [[Hylian]]s and the tribes of Hyrule. Many of those that have wanted the Triforce are greedy and power-hungry, seeking much power. The sacred power of the Triforce was one of the reasons of major conflict, leading to an era of chaos. Because the power of the golden Triforce was so great, many people attempted to claim ownership. After many years passing, another bloody, horrid battle called the [[Imprisoning War]] occurred. When word of the [[Sacred Realm]], the hidden location of the Triforce, broke out, civilians, being greedy and lustful, fought each other. Evil lords like [[Ganon|Ganondorf]] the Gerudo King entered the [[Sacred Realm]]. Almost all the Knights of Hyrule were wiped out in the conflict. The [[Seven Sages]], however, sealed the entrance to the Sacred Realm under the orders of the King of Hyrule. The Imprisoning War continues in the events of ‘Ocarina of Time’, but in a series of different events. The events that the Triforce has caused has ultimately re-shaped Hylian culture, life, and beliefs. It also led to the rise of Ganondorf, the King of the Gerudo Thieves. Although evil can wield the power, however, it is said that a Hero will always be there to battle him eventually.

The Triforce in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' only has two pieces, the [[Triforce of Wisdom|Triforce of Wisdom]] and [[Triforce of Power|Triforce of Power]]. They are described as "Magical Golden Triangles" that grant their holders great power. Before the events of the game, Ganon stole the Triforce of Power and captured Princess Zelda, who split the Triforce of Wisdom into eight [[Triforce Shard]]s and hid them in dungeons across Hyrule. Link goes to all eight dungeons to recover the pieces of the Triforce of Wisdom. When this has been done, he must battle his way through Ganon's forces to defeat him and recover the Triforce of Power, and rescue Princess Zelda.
