A '''Triforce Shard''' is a fragment of a shattered [[Triforce]]. In order to hide the Triforce from evil, it has been broken into pieces and scattered throughout [[Hyrule]]. Splitting the Triforce not only protects it from evil hands, it also ensures that whoever manages to assemble all the pieces is worthy of possessing it.
 
==Shards of the Triforce of Wisdom==
[[Image:LoZ_triforcepiece.png|right|frame]]In ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'', the peaceful kingdom of Hyrule held the two known Triforces; the [[Triforce#Triforce of Courage|Triforce of Courage's]] whereabouts were unknown. One day, [[Ganon]] attacked the kingdom and stole the [[Triforce#Triforce of Power|Triforce of Power]]. In an attempt to keep Ganon from obtaining the remaining Triforce, [[Princess Zelda]] divided the [[Triforce#Triforce of Wisdom|Triforce of Wisdom]] into eight fragments and scattered them throughout the land. She then sent [[Impa]] to find a man courageous enough to defeat the evil monster. Ganon captured the land of Hyrule and kidnapped Zelda. He set up his base within [[Death Mountain]] and imprisoned the princess there, under his watch. Meanwhile, Impa had been attacked by monsters and her mission was endangered. She was cornered and there seemed to be no hope. Then, the young adventurer, [[Link]], found and saved her. He courageously fought to protect the old nursemaid. Impa saw the potential to save the land in this boy, and decided he would be the hero to end her search. She presented him with a mission: Find the eight '''Triforce Shards''' and rescue Zelda. Link set out to end Ganon's reign of evil and recover the two Triforces.

[[Image:triforceshard.jpg|left|Triforce Shard]]In the flooded land of Hyrule in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', a great evil threatened the peace. Ganon, holder of the Triforce of Power, sought the Triforce of Wisdom. However, it was lost when the land was flooded, along with the royal family. To find it, he needed to find Princess Zelda. In his efforts, he accidentally abducted [[Aryll]], sister of Link. Link set out to save his sister, and in doing so, became the [[Link#Hero of Winds|Hero of Winds]]. In order to defeat Ganon, he needed to summon the [[Tower of Gods]], prove his worth, draw up the [[Master Sword]] from beneath the sea, and empower it with the ability to slay evil. He also needed the Triforce of Courage, which was hidden beneath the ocean in 8 pieces. With help from [[Tingle|Tingle's]] cartography skills, he sets out to find [[Triforce Chart]]s that would show him the location of the '''Triforce Shards'''.
