Lost Sky Crater

Lost Sky Crater is a small crater accessed from False God Passage with the Lost Sky Key found in the Cult Headquarters.
Lost Sky Crater contains a plain of ashen ground and Imperial, Dwarven, Nordic, and Snow Elf ruins buried in ash. Tektites, Karat Crabs and Sand Crabs are found in the crater. The area is one of the few with Karat Crabs and Sand Crabs.
They can also be found in the crater, standing over the corpses of Hylian Vampires and Ganon Cultists.
On the opposite side of the crater from the entrance from False God Passage is a tall pile of rubble embedded in the crater wall with a Nordic door leading to Lost Sky Ruins.
== Lost Sky Ruins ==
Lost Sky ruins is a very small, tilted ruin filled with rubble and boulders.In the center of the ruin is a single Goddess Statue with an empty bowl. Around the statue are three empty braziers, and at the base of the statue is the Goddess Sword.
== Lore ==
Lost Sky Crater was formed when Skyloft fell during the Last Great War of Hyrule as described in The City in the Sky, as well as by ruins left by several civilizations that discovered the crater. The Ancient Nords maintained the ruins of Skyloft's great statue of the goddess Hylia. Within it, the smaller statue of Hylia and the Goddess Sword miraculously survived. Given the similarity between the architecture in the ruins and Akaviri architecture, it is possible that Akaviri discovered the ruins first.
Lost Sky Crater proves that the lore in the Ruptured Towers is largely true.
== Background and Inspiration ==
Lost Sky Crater was added in version 6.5 and was a main focus of JKalenad's development of the update. It was included to provide an area to house the Goddess Sword, but also to somberly support lore found in the Ruptured Towers and to provide an area to visit after completing the Ruptured Towers. The support of the lore provides a grounded encouragement to the player to continue seeking out Relics of Hyrule.
Lost Sky Crater was intended to be much larger, but JKalenad decided to make it smaller and more focused.
