Description
"The Underworld is an underground maze of dangerous labyrinths. Link will find many more enemies living inside the labyrinths than he does in the Overworld. The fragments of the Triforce of Wisdom that Link is after are hidden somewhere inside these labyrinths."

-The Legend of Zelda Manual

When princess Zelda sent the eight Triforce fragments out into the stretches of the vast Overworld, they were trusted by 8 of Hyrule's most formidable soldiers on horseback to separate and protected locations. Ganon's forces expected this maneuver and intercepted the soldiers, killing them and taking the Triforce Fragments to eight locations of their own choosing. Though Hyrule's Overworld is known for its forests, lakes and mountains, it's also known for its labyrinthine network of crypts, dungeons and tombs.

It is believed that long ago there were six demonic gods that resided over Hyrule's primordial lands, each with their own early groups of followers and cult-like worshippers. Across Hyrule, there are a myriad of crypt-like shrines, each said to have been dedicated to these gods, which had become their homes, who have resided there since, forever in slumber. Gods that had been long thought to be merely mythical figures and part of some long-lost culture.

With his knowledge of the occult, influenced by the Triforce of Power, the evil sorcerer Ganon was able to call on these ancient deities to protect the fragments of the Triforce of Wisdom, until the third and unknown Triforce was found. Six of these fragments were hidden in these demonic shrines and temples, while the remaining two were stowed away in the most secretive and illusive tombs in Hyrule. Ganon was to keep Zelda prisoner in his own underworld fortress, known to reside somewhere in Death mountain.

Though the formidable ancient demons would be enough to stop any warrior from gaining access to the Triforce fragments, Ganon opted to employ other demonic entities, monsters and mercenaries to secure each fragment with excessive force, the tombs to be used as fortresses and outposts. While these tombs and shrines are known to be crawling with beasts and other nasty critters, they were once popular spots for Hyrule's treasure-seekers and grave-robbers, rumored to contain numerous treasures, objects, maps, instruments and even mystical weapons, presumed to have been placed there as tribute and sacrifices when the old demons lived. All looting activity has stopped however, now that the malicious deities that were rumored to reside there have been awakened.
