History
In the Era of the Goddess Hylia and the Sky Era, the Lanayru Province is protected by a great Thunder Dragon, Lanayru, who was ordered to protect the province by the goddess herself.[3] It is the home of an ancient race of advanced robots whose origins are unknown. Over the course of several hundred years, it was stripped bare of its natural greenery, beauty, resources, and even all good life due to a rapid change in the area's climate, transforming most of the province into a barren desert that would come to be known as the Lanayru Desert.[4][5] In the present, its former protector Lanayru has disappeared from the deserted province and the Ancient Robots have long since died out, their remains scattered everywhere. All of its once formerly functioning buildings have fallen into disuse, many filling with sand and monsters, and all use of technology and electricity has completely declined. The region has since become home to an array of hostile creatures that thrive in its harsh conditions. The only thing still active from its once prosperous era of advancement are the many Timeshift Stones scattered throughout the province, which allow one to see a limited section of the land in its former lush and green days. The western section of the province once lead into an ocean, but that too fell victim to severe climate change and became the Lanayru Sand Sea.
Link visits the province several times during his journey between the above world of Skyloft and the surface world, but he remains restricted to the Lanayru Desert and Lanayru Mine areas.
Geography and Notable Locations
The Lanayru Province is located to the west of the Faron Province and southwest of the Eldin Province. It is home to two major dungeons and a mini-dungeon.
