Zelda Wiki:Ordona - The Guardian Spirit: Difference between revisions

This evidence would seem to indicate that long before Link ever set foot in Hyrule, he was destined to be the one to protect it. Through divine fortelling, it is probable that the Goddesses foresaw the Hero emerging from the small province of Ordona. What may have befallen Ordona without the protection of the Light Spirit is uncertain; perhaps the Goddesses saw some impending danger, or knew that a time would come where the ones who carried the Hero's blood and lived in Ordona would need divine strength. In light of this knowledge, they deemed it worthy of protection and appointed the Fourth Light Spirit as Guardian to ensure the safety of the unborn Hero. Ordona's duties, therefore, would not include ridding the land of Hyrule of evils, hence its absence in the banishing of the Interlopers. Its true commission was only to look after the bloodline through which Link would eventually appear and see to it that his lineage was not interrupted.
