{{Color|#800080|This is a tale that you humans have passed down through uncounted generations…}}
 
{{Color|#8B4513|It tells of a war of unmatched scale and ferocity, the likes of which would never be seen again.
One dark, fateful day, the earth cracked wide and malevolent forces rushed forth from the fissure.
They mounted a brutal assault upon the surface people, driving the land into deep despair…
They burnt forests to ash, choked the land’s sweet springs, and murdered without hesitation.
They did all this in their lust to take the ultimate power protected by Her Grace, the goddess.
The power she guarded was without equal.
Handed down by gods of old, this power gave its holder the means to make any desire a reality.
Such was the might of the ultimate power that the old ones placed it in the care of the goddess.
To prevent this great power from falling into the hands of the evil swarming the lands…
The goddess gathered the surviving humans on an outcropping of earth.
She sent it skyward, beyond the reach of the demonic hordes. Beyond even the clouds.
With the humans safe, the goddess joined forces with the land dwellers and fought the evil forces, sealing them away.
At last, peace was restored to the surface.}}
 
{{Color|#676767|That is a tale that you humans have told for many ages, generation to generation…
But there are other legends, long hidden away from memory, and are intertwined with this tale.
Now, a new legend bound to this great story stands ready to be revealed.
A legend that will be forged by your own hand.}}
 
===Beginning===
''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'' begins in a village called [[Skyloft]] atop an island floating in the clouds. The people of this village fly on large colorful birds called [[Loftwings]] and worship a single [[Goddess|goddess]], a statue of whom is located at the top of the island. All that the people of Skyloft know is the sky; the world above the clouds and their birds are their entire life. The place below the clouds is seen as dark and evil.

[[Link]] is a seemingly normal boy living in Skyloft. He and [[Zelda]] have grown up together and are very close friends. Zelda is the daughter of the headmaster of Skyloft, [[Gaepora]]. The game starts out with Link having a dream of a large, black monster in a forest area. In this dream, he hears a voice telling him it will soon be time to realize his destiny. A screech from Zelda's bird wakes him up to find a letter from Zelda telling him to come to see her in her new ceremony dress for the festival that is about to take place. Later there is a bird riders' competition (as part of the festival), the prize of which is given by Zelda herself. Link enters the competition with his recently rescued bird (after another competitor kidnapped it) and at the ceremony Zelda delivers a small statue that is then carried off by a bird. Link must then prove his skills as a birdrider by taking this statue from the bird. He and several other competitors chase after the lead bird, but as Link gets close to winning the other two riders attempt to stop him. Still, he eventually passes the test and is excited to tell Zelda.

When Link arrives to tell Zelda, she simply jumps off of Skyloft, trusting that Link will catch her.  The two meet on top of the Statue of the Goddess, where Zelda gives Link the [[Sail Cloth]]. Later they are riding on a bird alone together when a tornado appears from the land below and knocks Zelda off her bird. As Link falls, a woman-like figure appears from above...
