The Twilight Realm seems to be a Polytheistic society, as [[Midna]] mentions that their Gods were on Link's side as symbolized by the Sol's fusing with the [[Master Sword]].  None of the gods of the Twilight Realm are mentioned during Twilight Princess, and it remains unclear if they pay homage to the goddess's of Hyrule, since they were banished by them. But what IS clear, is that they do worship more than one god. The full history of the Twilight Realm is incomplete, leaving only a brief bit of its origins and its recent history as the only information available. For much of its early history, it was a peaceful place, until the king of evil [[Ganondorf]] was banished to the place by the Ancient Sages where his evil influence would cause a coup of the government and cast the realm into darkness by overthrowing the true Twilight Princess and installing a puppet ruler named [[Zant]] into the position of ruler of the Twilight Realm. Zant goes on to seal the Sols, thrusting the Twilight Realm into darkness, and invade Hyrule under Ganondorf's orders in order to merge the two worlds together to make a single empire. After the Dark Lord's defeat however, peace was restored and the Twilight Realm was free from his grip. This was made possible by [[Link]] and [[Zelda]] before the Mirror of Twilight was shattered by Midna, the Twilight Realm's rightful ruler that was restored to power. This action severed the only known road between the two worlds, destroying the only known means of travel between them to prevent similar events from happening again.
