So, there used to be a goddess named Hylia who did a whole bunch of stuff though what I'm not sure, point is she's big and powerful. They name the land Hyrule and at some point Hylia dies and lets three goddesses take her place.

Din, the Goddess of Power, creates the land, Nayru, Goddess of Wisdom, created the laws of the land, and Farore, Goddess of Courage, created the creatures that inhabit the world. They leave at some point and place a small part of their power inside of a place called the Scared Realm, making the Triforce.

Anyway, after a while people start populating the sky and one dude, Link, wants to be a knight and went after a demon king named Demise who was hunting his friend (maybe girlfriend) Zelda because she was a descendant of Hylia.

Link tried to fight Demise with the Goddess Sword but couldn't so Link's companion Fi sacrificed herself and fused with the sword, creating the Master Sword. Link killed Demise, who swore he would hunt down Link's reincarnations and Zelda's descendants in his next life.

And after her brave adventure it's decided that all the women in the soon-to-be royal family would be named after the first Zelda who saved the land. And finally, as you could probably imagine, thousands of years later Demise's promise comes true as he is born the first male of the Gerudo, Ganondorf.

Any questions?
