Din (goddess)

Din is one of the three creator goddesses of Hyrule. She, along with her sisters Nayru and Farore came down from the heavens and created Hyrule out of the chaos the land formerly was, each contributing their part in the process. According to The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Din, "With her strong flaming arms, cultivated the land and created the red earth." Upon departure, they left the Triforce, the essence of their power, in the Sacred Realm.

Din, the Goddess of Power, formed the terrain of Hyrule. She is the master of fire magic, and the spell Din's Fire is named after her. The Din's Pearl, belonging to the Rito people, is also named after her, and said to have once belonged to her. Because she is the goddess of power she is associated with the Triforce of Power and Ganon.

In The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, a province of Hyrule is named Eldin in her honor. A Light Spirit named Eldin and her spring are also named after the goddess.
