Goddess of Wisdom - Nayru

Nayru is the youngest of the Golden Goddesses, and is considered an icon of wisdom and fairness to all of Hyrule. Known for her love of children, she, like Koboku, is looked to as the guardian of Hyrule's younger generations, and expecting mothers. A lesser-known trait of hers (which is often overlooked for the sake of her title) is her tendency to act a little spacey, as even the wisest of them all can still be a little airheaded at times.

Shortly after creating Hyrule, the Golden Goddesses came to an agreement about the protection of the world they had created. Knowing the risks that came with giving their creations free will, and being aware of the restrictions they faced in how they could protect their creations from destroying themselves, they decided to grant special favors on three individuals of every generation, in the possibility of an impending doom that could not be solved by mortal abilities alone. The three sisters would consult with the Goddess of Time, seeking insight and assistance, so that they could be aware if such a crisis were to arise.

Nayru turned her attention to Hyrule's royal family, believing that it might be best if one of the most influential people of Hyrule would be granted her gift of wisdom. She chose a woman, wanting a person with great empathy and generosity, and every daughter born from her bloodline would be granted with her gift.

Much like her younger brother, Jabun, Nayru is depicted in varying shades of blues, and more often than not cooler shades tend to be used. The reasoning behind this is that blue is a soft and soothing color, calming the mind and bringing forth deeper, clearer thoughts.

The symbol of the three Golden Goddesses is the all-powerful and ever-famous Triforce, comprised of the individual pieces of Power, Courage, and Wisdom. Legend has it that if a person with a pure heart of equal balance lays a hand on the Triforce, they will attain the power of the gods and create a golden land for the people of Hyrule. If one with an evil heart lays his hand upon the Triforce, the pieces will separate and immediately seek out those chosen by destiny to keep the world from becoming overcome by darkness.
