The Ceremony of the Goddess is a ceremony that takes place in Skyward Sword'.
In it, an individual playing the Goddess gives the champion of the Wing Ceremony a Sailcloth. The champion must then prove their courage by leaping from a tall structure, before opening the Sailcloth to arrest their fall only at the last moment. It is said to have been played out since ancient times.[1]
Appearances
Skyward Sword
The ceremony seen in Skyward Sword takes place on the Statue of the Goddess, and together with the Wing Ceremony commemorates the twenty-fifth anniversary of the opening of the Knight Academy. Zelda takes the role of the Goddess, while Link is the champion being presented with a Sailcloth which Zelda made herself.
Following the Wing Ceremony, Link gives Zelda the Bird Statuette he obtained in the race. Zelda places it into a hole in the Statue of the Goddess and plays part of the Ballad of the Goddess. She then gives Link the Sailcloth.
Afterwards, she shoves Link off the ledge over a large amount of stone carvings. Link must then land exactly inside the outermost circle. If Link fails, he must restart the jump, and this time, Zelda will not push Link, and Link must jump on his own.
