The '''Sky Era''' spans the time when humans live in the sky after being sent there by [[Hylia]] to protect them from [[Demise]]. This era spans thousands of years,{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia|Hyrule Historia]]'', pg. 72|After a few thousand years, their story was forgotten and became legend.}}{{Ref|''Hyrule Historia'', pg. 75-76, headings for events preceding ''Skyward Sword'' which occur after the [[Era of the Goddess Hylia#The Ancient Battle|Ancient Battle]]|Thousands of Years Ago}} through the events of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', concluding with the humans' return to the [[Surface]] shortly after the game's ending.{{Ref|''Hyrule Historia'', pg. 76|Zelda resolved to live on the Surface and to protect the Triforce.}} | |||

The land that Hylia sent skyward becomes known as [[Skyloft]]. It enjoys a peaceful time in the Sky Era, with the humans remaining safe and the [[Era of the Goddess Hylia#The Ancient Battle|Ancient Battle]] fading into legend. Skyloft culture comes to revolve around the [[Loftwing]], divine birds said to be gifts of protection from Hylia.{{Ref|SS|4680|[[Gaepora]]}} Free from the ancient threat on the Surface, and with the help of the Loftwings, the humans build up their military strength.{{Ref|''Hyrule Historia'', pg. 72|On Skyloft, they developed a militia and slowly built up their strength.}} 25 years before the events of ''Skyward Sword'', [[Gaepora]] builds the [[Knight Academy]].{{Ref|SS|3164}}{{Ref|''Hyrule Historia'', pg. 72|Gaepora, the keeper of the legends that had been passed down through his family, built the Knight Academy.}} The academy trains young Skyloftians in kendo and Loftwing riding,{{Ref|''Hyrule Historia'', pg. 72|Gaepora brought kendo training and Loftwing riding together and established the order of the knights.}} and the most skilled students graduate to become [[Rescue Knight]]s, tasked with patrolling Skyloft and saving people who fall off the floating islands.{{Ref|''Hyrule Historia'', pg. 73|The honor students become the Rescue Knights. Their duties include saving people who have fallen from the islands in the sky and patrolling at all hours upon a Loftwing.}}{{Ref|SS|4439|[[Croo]]}} | |||
Although many of the details of the [[Era of the Goddess Hylia]] — including the existence of the [[Surface]] and [[Era of the Goddess Hylia#Hylia's Two Plans|Hylia's two plans]] — are forgotten by all except the few keepers of the legends,{{Ref|''Hyrule Historia'', pg. 72|The keepers of the legends protect the secrecy of the ancient documents about the Surface and the Goddess Sword, which is located in the Statue of the Goddess.}} the inhabitants still revere Hylia as their divine protector. The [[Statue of the Goddess]] towering over Skyloft from the [[Isle of the Goddess]] serves as the site of the annual{{Ref|''Hyrule Historia'', pg. 73|This year, the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Knight Academy, the Sailcloth is given to the champion atop the Statue of the Goddess.}} [[Ceremony of the Goddess]]. | |||
{{Spoiler|section}} | |||
The seeds of one of Hylia's plans are hidden within the Isle of the Goddess. The [[Goddess Sword]] and its spirit [[Fi]] reside [[Inside the Statue of the Goddess]]. The [[Triforce]] is also hidden deep inside, within [[Sky Keep]]. | |||
