Personally I'm HOPING it's a dark Zelda game, and I don't mean just art. I mean from the perspective of Ganondorf. Maybe even a prequel to Skyward Sword where we figure out why Demise decided to try to take over... which could explain why the "old gods" suddenyl weren't there anymore. I've wondered why Hylia was the only remaining god/goddess. What happened to the others? We may have a complete backstory of link and Zelda and the triforce, but I want the backstory to Hylia and Demise and the old order pre-triforce!

Din, Nayru, and Farore left Hyrule behind entirely. They are essentially higher-order Goddesses (more like capital-G God), while Demise and Hylia (and other gods that make appearances, like in Wind Waker or Twilight Princess) are more like low-G gods.

In Skyward Sword, and as much as I've read in Hyrule Historia I own, I don't recall them limiting the older gods to just being din, nayru, and farore. And even if they did, I'm sure it would be fascinating to see WHY those older order of immortals ascended away from the rest of the world. Why do they allow this seemingly eternal circle between Hylia, Link, and Demise?
