The '''Hylians''' (pronounced {{IPA|ˈhaɪ.li.ən}} {{respell|HY|lee|ən}}<ref>{{Cite | The '''Hylians''' (pronounced {{IPA|ˈhaɪ.li.ən}} {{respell|HY|lee|ən}})<ref>{{Cite|Pardon the entrance, but you're a Hylian, aren't you?|Sidon|BotW}}</ref> are a race of [[human]]s from the countries of [[Skyloft]], [[Hyrule]] and the latter's flooded counterpart, the [[Great Sea]]. While it is unlikely that the people of [[Termina]], a parallel world to the Kingdom of Hyrule, are also known as Hylians, they are their parallels. Descended from the people who lived among the goddess [[Hylia]] long prior to the establishment of Hyrule as a kingdom, they are a magic race with pointed ears who have inherited the blood, powers and abilities of their ancient ancestors. The most famous Hylians are the [[Link|many heroes]] and [[Princess Zelda|princesses]] that share the same name as one another, the latter being of blood relation and naming tradition. | ||
