first, its origins: i believe that it was originally created to be a helper/personal assistant/protector of the princess or queen. itās small, light in color, automated and mainly follows around one person, and most importantly: it reacted to zeldaās magic. it was not activeĀ until zeldaās powers awoke. and itās not just that the lightĀ āpurifiedā it and woke it up - if that were the case, all of the other guardians should have returned to normal or activated if not yet working, instead of turning off completely. no, light shone from the egg itself, suggesting it hosts some sort of divine power or energy. the egg being powered off of this sacred power would suggest, or at least support the idea, of a link between the guardian and zelda. sure, it follows link around in the gameplay because heās the main character, but itās been emphasized that it has an attachment to zelda. even the tapestry depicts the guardian at her side.
[edit: pre-game release speculation below]
now, in theĀ āoriginalā timeline, this egg guy was inactive because zeldaās powers were not yet awakened. i believe that the evil cloaked guy seen in the trailer found this little egg guardian somewhere and then used maliceĀ to activate and corrupt it to use it as a spy/looking glass/glass ball. from the little weāve seen, we know that they possess some sort of knowledge or power over malice and corrupted sheikah tech, as shown by the corrupted ancient core-esque thing they held. if they really were the fortune teller, this would make even more sense, with the spying and such.
later on, the egg gets deactivated somehow - caught in a crossfire and busted, somehow cleared of malice, whatever ā and eventually found by the princess or someone else. itās fixed up, but canāt be turned on. it gets abandoned when zeldaās forced to give up her side projects in favor of prayer.Ā
then, her powers awaken, and the guardian meant to protect her is awakened with it. her command to it: protect everyone. to which it does a little nodding gesture.
another theory, from nintendoblackcrisis, suggests that the egg going back in time is the result of a wish from zelda harnessing the full power of the triforce with the awakening of her power. while i definitely think this could be the case... 1. we donāt know if she actually possessesĀ the triforce or if itās just a stylistic choice/representation of her power, and 2. according to lore, the triforce returns to the sacred realm after granting a wish. if she truly did have the triforce and that truly was her wish, well. the triforce would have left, right? and presumably that didnāt happen. though i suppose you could argue that we donāt see the aftermath of that wish/command in that timeline just yet. either way, i think that would be a... strange roundabout way of the triforce granting the wish rather than just. Fixing Things like it normally does.Ā in my opinion, a connection between a princess and the guardian built to assist her, linked by her divine power, is a much more personal tale than justĀ ātriforce did it.āĀ
TL;DR: egg was made in ancient times as a personal assistant/guardian to the princess, linked by and/or powered by her magic. it did not awaken until our zeldaās powers did, and responded to her command toĀ āprotect everyone.ā in the og timeline, the inactive egg was found and used by evil malice guy as a spy, but eventually gets deactivated, found, and placed in zeldaās study.
