Farore, commonly referred to as the Goddess of Courage in historical, verbal tales and literature, is one of the three Golden Goddesses in the legend of the creation of Hyrule. Her essence is embodied within the Triforce of Courage, commonly depicted as the third Triforce piece. In nearly every Zelda title, Link is seen as the one who possesses said piece of the Triforce.

Twilight Princess

Farore is one of the Golden Goddesses seen in the monument contained within the throne room of Hyrule Castle. The Light Spirit, Lanayru tells Link a compressed story of the history of the three goddesses of whom created Hyrule. Lanayru then tells of how the knowledge of the Sacred Realm became more widespread, causing a war and bringing about the Dark Interlopers, those of whom excel at magic. After the sorcerers attempted to gain power over the Sacred Realm, the goddess Farore came in to command the Light Spirits, in which she granted them the power to intervene and seal away the magic the interlopers controlled.
