A '''Triforce Shard''' is a piece of the [[Triforce]] that has been broken and scattered throughout [[Hyrule]]. They appear as gold pieces, and are usually just a smaller version of the actual Triforce.

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', the Triforce Shards were the shards of the [[Triforce of Wisdom]], which [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]] had once possessed. However, once [[Ganon]] came to Hyrule and stole the [[Triforce of Power]], Zelda knew he would come after her and the Triforce of Wisdom. She then brokes it into eight pieces, and hid each of them into a different dungeon across Hyrule.{{Ref|LoZ|4|In-Game Description}} She then told [[Impa]] to look for a suitable hero that can collect the pieces and destroy Ganon. Impa finds [[Link]], and immeditely tells him of the great quest he is ro be set out on. He then travels to each of the eight dungeons and defeats every enemy that gets in his way, and eventually collects all the Shards and put together the Triforce of Wisdom. With the Triforce of Wisdom in hand, he heads for [[Spectacle Rock]], where Ganon is rumored to lurk, inside [[Level 9: Death Mountain|Death Mountain]]. He finds Ganon, and will his power and the Triforce of Wisdom, he destroys Ganon and takes back the Triforce of Power.
