The Wing Ceremony
The story transitions to the present day in Skyloft, where a young man named Link is having a strange dream depicting a gigantic dark beast and a mysterious spirit. He is awoken by a Loftwing owned by his childhood friend Zelda. The bird gives Link a letter from Zelda asking him to rendezvous with her at the Statue of the Goddess in preparation for the annual Wing Ceremony scheduled to take place that day. He meets her at the statue on the Isle of the Goddess, where he discovers that his Crimson Loftwing has gone missing and begins to search for it. After overhearing his rival Groose and his two cronies Cawlin and Strich, Link discovers that they are responsible for his Loftwing's disappearance,[13] and that they hid the bird behind Skyloft's waterfall.[14] Link takes a Practice Sword from the Knight Academy and enters a cave near Skyloft's waterfall. On the other end of it, he meets up with Zelda, who has come to assist Link in finding his Loftwing.[15] After stating that Link's bird may be ahead,[16] Zelda hears a strange voice and wonders whose it is,[17] but quickly assures Link that nothing is wrong.[18] The two find Link's Loftwing and free him. Zelda then asks Link if he heard the voice she had heard earlier,[19] and says that she feels as if someone is calling out to her.[20] She proceeds to tell him about the possibility of a land beneath the clouds called the Surface, said to be far more vast than Skyloft.[21] She quickly brushes it off,[22] and the two fly to the ceremony together.

With all of the participants ready, the Wing Ceremony begins. Despite Groose and his lackeys' efforts to prevent him from winning,[23][24] Link succeeds in plucking the Bird Statuette from the talons of another Loftwing, making him the victor. Link and Zelda proceed to the Goddess Statue to complete the ceremony, where Zelda bestows the blessings of the Goddess upon Link and gives him the Sailcloth.[25] To conclude the ceremony, Link must jump off the statue and land safely using the Sailcloth.[26] Zelda pushes him off instead, and Link is successful. Zelda praises Link and proposes that the two fly around the clouds together in celebration.[27][28] However, as they are flying, a mysterious black tornado suddenly appears and plucks Zelda off of her Loftwing, causing her to fall beneath the Cloud Barrier. Link tries to rescue her, but is knocked out by the tornado himself in the process.

Link's Loftwing takes him back to Skyloft. That night, Link has a dream depicting Zelda free falling into the mouth of the same beast from his dream at the beginning at the game. After waking up in his bed, he explains the events that transpired to Zelda's father, Headmaster Gaepora. Although Gaepora tells him to rest, Link soon hears the voice of the mysterious spirit once more and leaves his room, following the spirit to the Goddess Statue. The spirit appears from the sword within the statue and introduces herself as Fi.[29] She tells Link that he must take the blade he sees in front of him and embark on his destined journey as the chosen hero of the Goddess.[30] Although he is apprehensive at first, Fi tells him that Zelda is still alive,[31] and Link draws the blade. The two are joined moments after by Gaepora, who explains his hidden knowledge of a prophecy that foretold what is taking place before him.[32][33] He tells Link that in order to reach the Surface and rescue Zelda, he must pierce the Cloud Barrier, something nobody has ever done before.[34] Fi remedies the situation by bestowing Link with the Emerald Tablet,[35] which opens a portal through the clouds to the world below.
