It seems that these powers of Earth and Sky are representative of Hylia . To make the Master Sword , it was tempered with the power of all four Goddesses . It gained its form from being imbued with the powers of the traditional Golden Goddesses , but it got its special powers from being blessed by Hylia . Furthermore , I think it is likely that the first Earth and Wind Sages came into being after SS Zelda eventually passed away . Hylia and her magic were definitefly gone by then and due to that , new Sages awoke to take up the mantle of maintaining the Master Sword ' s power . It doesn ' t seem like those powers were passed down to the Royal Family , because then they could maintain the Master Sword and the Earth and Wind Sages wouldn ' t need to exist .
