'''Hylia''' is a character introduced in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''. She is the only known worshiped deity in [[Skyloft]] with no mention of the three [[Golden Goddesses|Goddesses]] or the [[Triforce]], and is known only as the Goddess. In the prologue of the game, her role in [[Hyrule]]'s mythology is shown. She was meant to protect an Ultimate Power, which is obviously the Triforce, passed down by the "old gods". When the [[Surface|land below]] is attacked by evil forces, she raises an island of land with the humans and the Ultimate Power on it into [[The Sky|the sky]]. She and the remaining land dwellers fought off the evil forces.
'''Hylia''' is a goddess introduced in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''. A younger deity than the three [[Golden Goddesses]], she remained associated with the land when the three elder goddesses returned to the heavens. While she was worshipped as the sole "Goddess" on [[Skyloft]], knowledge of her apparently faded for many years, before seeing a resurgence in the far future, where every town features a [[Goddess Statue]].


A massive statue known as the [[Statue of the Goddess]] can be seen looking over the city of Skyloft. Under the statue lies [[Sky Keep]], where the Triforce is hidden. It has a real world similarity to the Christ the Redeemer statue that looks over Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In the beginning of the game, [[Fi]] leads [[Link]] to a secret room in the Goddess Statue that houses the [[Goddess Sword]].
==''Skyward Sword''==
Hylia is the only known worshipped deity in [[Skyloft]] with no mention of the three [[Golden Goddesses|Goddesses]], and is often known only as "The Goddess". During the prologue of the game, her role in [[Hyrule]]'s mythology is shown. She was meant to protect an Ultimate Power, which refers to the Triforce, passed down by the "old gods". When the [[Surface|land below]] is attacked by evil forces, she raises an island with the humans and the [[Triforce|Ultimate Power]] on it into [[The Sky|the sky]]. She and the remaining land dwellers fought off the evil forces.


She had sacrificed her divine form so she could later be reborn as a mortal. [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]] is the result of this. She regains her memories as Hylia, before going back in time and into a coma to ensure that the seal on [[Demise]], the King of the Evil forces mentioned in the prologue, holds until a mortal with unbreakable spirit- Link -uses the Triforce to kill Demise. When Demise is crushed by the Goddess statue, Zelda awakens but is then kidnapped by [[Ghirahim]], who goes to the past (where Demise is still alive) and resurrects Demise using Zelda's holy power.

==''Breath of the Wild''==
Hylia appears to be worshipped widely, with a [[Goddess Statue]] in every town. When [[Link (Breath of the Wild)|Link]] collects [[Spirit Orb]]s, he can go to one of these statues and Hylia's voice will offer to exchange four of them for a [[Heart Container]] or [[Stamina Vessel]]. Hylia's voice also speaks at the [[Spring of Wisdom]] to charge Link with freeing [[Naydra]] and at the [[Spring of Power|Springs of Power]] and [[Spring of Courage|Courage]] to guide him.
The [[Forgotten Temple]] was built to honor Hylia and contains the oldest (and largest) "[[Statue of the Goddess]]".
==Trivia==
*The design of Hylia's statue in [[Skyloft]] resembles the real world Christ the Redeemer statue overlooking Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
*Fans theorize Hylia has her own [[Triforce]] piece which, when combined with the [[Triforce]], forms the [[Tetraforce]].
