Spirit of Light

The Spirits of Light are the four spirits that watch over each of the four different provinces of Hyrule within the game The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. They guard the provinces of Ordona, Faron, Eldin, and Lanayru. All four are named after the province they guard, or possibly vice versa.

The Light Spirits were set to Hyrule to contain the Light that sustains Hyrule. When Link restores the light to Lanayru, Lanayru tells the legend of the Twili. Long ago, a tribe of interlopers who acceled in the dark magical arts tried to establish dominion over the Sacred Realm in order to gain the power of the Triforce. However, the Gods asked the four Light Spirits to intervene. The Light Spirits sealed away the tribe's magic into the Fused Shadows and the interlopers were chased across Hyrule into the Gerudo Desert. It was then the Tribe was banished into the Twilight Realm by the Gods at Arbiter's Grounds, to by sealed away forever. However, the Gods left one link between the two worlds, the Mirror of Twilight, which was to be guarded by the Six Sages.
