The Royal Crest,(Series)[1] also known as the Wingcrest,(Series)[2] is a common depiction of the Triforce above a Loftwing. Succeeding a much older crest used in the same land during ancient times by the Goddess Hylia, it serves as the official crest of the Royal Family of Hyrule and can be found in many places throughout the kingdom of Hyrule. It appears in places such as the various incarnations of Hyrule Castle, the Temple of Time and the Arbiter's Grounds. It can also be found on walls, banners and Guard uniforms.
The Goddess Hylia's crest was in the shape of a bird and the people of Skyloft, descendants of the people who lived among Hylia and the ancestors of the Hylians, rode giant birds and used the same symbol. Because of this, both the Royal Crest and the Hylian Crest incorporate elements of the Goddess Crest.[3] ==Notes==
