Linked History: Original Trio - Update — Description

Was going to post Shade but then realized none of what I was going to say in their information was going to make sense without this context so here is the updated First Trio with the information under the cut. Sorry if it's kinda jumbled, I tried to include as much as I could without getting too long winded or giving too much away so this is what you get.

THE BEGINNING As the Golden Goddesses completed their work on the creation of the world they left behind two relics for the inhabitants that the youngest, Faore, created. Din, gathering the broken shards of their power that they left behind, created the Triforce. While Nayru, melding Golden Flesh from all three of them together created Hylia, who would protect the Triforce. Faore as a final act of love for the lives she created imbued the Triforce with a portion of her own power before the three departed from the world.

The life created by Faore was vast most inhabited the surface; across the desert, hidden in the forests, or spread across the plains. There were other races though who inhabited the sky or dwelled deep underground.

THE MEETING The inhabitants would frequent the temple erected around the resting place of the Triforce, viewed as a Holy Ground and the last place touched by the Golden Goddesses, though most were weary to remain due to the silent vigil of the Triforce's protector. One day a man from the desert appeared, one who did not shy away from Hylia's golden gaze and rather seemed to house a portion of gold in his own gaze.

From their first meeting the two grew closer and Hylia warmed up to her self-appointed guard, with his help those who lived around the temple no longer shied away from her gaze and Hylia found herself learning more about the world she inhabited instead of what she was only able to see from her place at the temple.

The one day, someone new appeared, one with a strange appearance the likes of which no one on the surface had ever seen. They had fallen at the steps of the temple near death by the time Hylia and Ganon had found them. After they had regained some strength and woke up they explained to Hylia and Ganon that their name was Link of the Zonai and that they had fallen to the surface from their home far above the clouds. After learning a bit more about his home and telling him more about the surface Link was given one of the available rooms within the temple and later introduced to those who lived around the temple.

Time passed and the three grew closer, learning more about one another and Link learned more about the new world around him, unable, or unwilling, to return home

CORRUPTION About a year or two after Link had arrived at the surface a plague began spreading across the surface, corrupting and quickly killing any afflicted by it. The people of the surface, unsure of where else it may have originated from, grew weary and rumors began that it was due to Link's arrival. These rumors spread and Link was soon imprisoned by those who feared the spreading corruption. It was at this time that Ganon had become afflicted by it, though hid it from Hylia so as not to worry her.

As the corruption spread and gained power it took longer to kill but corrupted to the point of control, and those who it controlled would begin attacking loved ones and it was around this time that the corruption took hold of Ganon completely.

In the end Link was freed from his imprisonment to help Hylia fight against the corrupted Ganon. Though they were unable to kill one they had grown so close to, so Link presented a solution. The Zonai were all born with latent abilities, his was one that would help for the time being, until they were able to find a better solution. So Link, with Hylia's help, was able to seal Ganon away in a prison the two made together, though his Soul was shattered in the process. Hylia then made a wish upon the Triforce for herself, so that she may be reborn when the time came that his soul was reformed and the two would one day be able to save their friend in the future.
