Cia

Cia (シア, Shia) is an original character from Hyrule Warriors. The darker half of her heart serves as the game's primary antagonist.

Role in Game
A witch responsible for protecting the equilibrium of the Triforce, Cia fell in love with Link and grew jealous of his close relationship with Princess Zelda. As a result, her once pure heart surrenders to the forces of darkness. Driven by the darker side of herself, she opens the Gate of Souls to conjure an army of darkness. Meanwhile, her good side manifested itself in the form of Lana to assist the heroes. It is later revealed that she originally separated the two remaining Triforce pieces before succumbing to Ganondorf's evil influence.

Personality
Although Cia was once a good person, her current self is a provocative individual who knows what she wants and will stop at nothing to obtain them. She desires to claim Link for herself.

Character Symbolism
Cia is a name which is derived from Kynthia, an alternative name for Greek goddess Artemis. It can alternatively mean the divinity of the moon or being stationed within it.
