Some people believe that Princess Zelda is the 4th goddess, and represents the fourth piece of the Tetraforce, hence her pirate reincarnation name, Tetra (from ''The Wind Waker'') which is Greek for the word "four". There is a symbolic cut scene from ''The Wind Waker'', when Tetra's necklace piece unites with a small triangle given to her from the [[King of Hyrule]]. Is this a visual metaphor of Zelda owning the fourth piece of the Tetraforce and having the ability to unite it? Unfortunately for these believers, Link also came across the instance of needing to mend his Triforce piece from shards, proving that it is unnecessary to possess a 4th piece to mend a Triforce fragment.

Another possibility is that the fourth inner piece represents hope; this theory comes from the Oracle games, {{OOS}} and {{OOA}}. The Oracles of Seasons ([[Din (Oracle)|Din]]), Ages ([[Nayru (Oracle)|Nayru]]), and Secrets ([[Farore (Oracle)|Farore]]) represent pieces of the Triforce, and with Princess Zelda claiming to be the Oracle of ''Hope'', the four pieces of the Tetraforce are allegedly there. It is also possible that Zelda had actually always been a Goddess of Hope sent to Hyrule to be continuously reborn as the Princess of Hyrule.

Some also note that in the final scene that Zelda is portrayed as [[Sheik]] in ''Ocarina of Time'', she said something referencing the "True Force", of which one would receive upon bestowing equal Power, Wisdom and Courage within themselves. The "True Force to Govern All", however, is used time and time again when referring to the complete Triforce, which in context consists of only the widely-accepted three pieces.
