Many years before {{TWW|-}} begins, the land of [[Hyrule]] was flooded by the [[Deity|Gods]] as a last resort to stop [[Ganon]]'s forces when the [[Link|Hero of Time]] didn't arrive to destroy them. Its surviving people fled to the mountaintops and tried to restore their peaceful lives. Those mountaintops became the many islands of The Great Sea. Many years passed since then, and the people have forgotten about the history of "Old" Hyrule, except as a bedtime story told to children, and in a coming of age ceremony for young boys.<br>

The Great Sea is "illusory", and its waters from the heavens are different from Hyrule's native waters.
