Ancient Battle

The Ancient Battle is a name given to describe one of the earliest battles in Hyrule's history a short time after the creation of the world by the three Golden Goddesses. After their labors in the creation of Hyrule were completed, the Golden Goddesses (Din, Nayru, and Farore) left a symbol of their power in the hands of the goddess known as Hylia to protect it and protect the land then known simply as the "Surface". This battle ensued when the demon king known as Demise broke out of the depths of the earth with his armies and attempted to take this ultimate power from Hylia for himself. This battle would result in the creation of both Skyloft and the Sealed Grounds.
