Hylia, also known as Her Grace, is a goddess featured in Skyward Sword.

Battle Against Demise
When the gods of old departed from the world, they trusted their ultimate power, the Triforce in the hands of Her Grace to protect it. However, Demise, wanting to make the world his own, gathered an army of monsters and  together launched an attack against the people of the surface, murdering  them and causing misfortunes all just to get their hands in the power  guarded by Hylia.

To prevent the great power from falling into the hands of Demise, Her Grace gathered the surviving humans on a piece of land and sent it to  the heavens, beyond the clouds and out of reach from the evil plaguing  the land. Now that the humans were safe, the goddess and the five tribes who lived in the surface joined forces and sealed away Demise, restoring  peace to the land. However, Hylia, during the long and fierce battle, had suffered "grave injuries" and knew that the seal would not hold against Demise's immense power.

Since Hylia knew that if Demise freed himself it would bring the destruction of the land, she came up with two plans to put an end to the  demon king. Her first plan consisted in creating Fi, the spirit that resides in the Goddess Sword, and giving it the purpose of assisting Hylia's chosen hero throughout his journey. Secondly, Hylia decided to abandon her divine powers and immortal form in order to "transfer her soul to the body of a mortal" so that the  Triforce, which was created by gods but ultimately not usable by one,  could one day be used.

The Goddess's Chosen Hero
After sending her people skyward, the goddess created a cloud barrier to separate the sky from the world below. She also left several messages for the one who would become her chosen hero so as to guide him in his quest. Along with these messages, the goddess prepared several trials that would test the hero's power, wisdom, and courage. After completing each trial, the chosen hero would receive one of the three sacred gifts left by Hylia, which would help the hero find his way to the purifying Sacred Flames. However, to reach these trials, the goddess also left the Isle of Songs solely for her chosen hero. This isle houses three melodies that would open the way to the three trials, with each of the melodies being bestowed upon the hero to play on the Goddess's Harp.

To secure the Triforce, Hylia hid the sacred relic somewhere in Skyloft, but the location was kept a secret. Before passing from the world, the goddess appointed a dragon to protect each region of the Surface: Faron to watch over the woods, Eldin to watch over the mountains, and Lanayru to watch over the desert. Lastly, the appointed the great spirit Levias as warden of the skies. Each of the guardians were left with a part of the "Song of the Hero", a melody that would unlock the final trial for the chosen hero. Hylia entrusted the guardians to teach the chosen hero their part of the song, since should the hero succeed in conquering the last trial, the path to the Triforce will open to him.

The Goddess Reborn
Hylia was eventually reborn as Zelda, a citizen of Skyloft and close friend of Link. However, Zelda was not aware of her previous existence as the goddess until she was tossed out of  the sky and into the surface by Ghirahim's tornado, where  an old woman rescued her from being captured by  the evil forces and then helped the young girl remember her purpose. With Impa's help, Zelda set out to pray at the goddess statues located in each temple to purify her body, with each statue stirring up memories of her past life.

Theory
Hylia's primary antagonist, the Demon King Demise, possesses a sword that seems strikingly similar to the Master Sword. It remains unexplained whether the blade wielded by Her Grace and her chosen hero was specifically created to counteract Demise's weapon or  vice versa. This is made further unclear by the fact that Fi and Ghirahim are similar humanoid beings accompanying each sword.
