Impa will tell Link the story of the legend that occurred 10,000 years ago of how Hyrule drove back Ganon.{{Ref|''Breath of the Wild''|The history of the royal family of Hyrule is also the history of Calamity Ganon, a primal evil that has endured over the ages. This evil has been turned back time and time again by a warrior wielding the soul, of a hero, and a princess who carries the blood of the Goddess. With the passage of time, each conflict with Ganon faded into legend. So listen closely as I tell you of this "legend" that occurred 10,000 years ago.|Impa}}{{Ref|''Breath of the Wild''|Hyrule was then blossoming as a highly advanced civilization. Even the most powerful monsters posed little threat to the denizens of the realm. The people thought it wise to utilize their technological prowess to ensure the safety of the land, should Calamity Ganon ever return. They constructed four mechanical wonders that came to be known as the Divine Beasts. They also built a legion of autonomous weapons called Guardians. The Divinie Beats were piloted by four individuals of exceptional skill from across the land. And thus, the plan to neutralize Ganon was forged. Upon Ganon's inevitable return to Hyrule, the princess and the hero fought alongside these four champions against this ancient evil. The Guardians were tasked with protecting the hero as the Divine Beasts unleashed a furious attack upon their terrible foe. And when the hero wielding the sword that seals the darkness delivered his final blow... The princess used her sacred power to seal away Calamity Ganon.|Impa}}

Impa will then tell Link about the [[Great Calamity]] from 100 years ago and the four [[Divine Beast]]s.{{Ref|''Breath of the Wild''|A hundred years ago... in preparation for the foretold revival of Ganon, we strove to follow the lead of our ancestors of 10,000 years prior. But...in the end... Despite our best efforts and creful planning, we underestimated his power. In order to avoid ever making that grave mistake again, the princess left you these words... Free the four Divine Beasts. That is what she said.|Impa}}{{Ref|''Breath of the Wild''|The four Divine Beasts are the ancient Sheikah weapons wielded by the four Champions who Ganon defeated. The Divine Beast Vah Rudania, controlled by Daruk of the Gorons. The Divine Beast Vah Medoh, controlled by Revali of the Rito. The Divine Beast Vah Ruta, controlled by Mipha of the Zora. And the Divine Beast Vah Naboris, controlled by Urbosa of the Gerudo. It would be extremely ill-advised to face Ganon without the power of the Divine Beasts to help you... You must infiltrate the Divine Beasts that were stolen away by Ganon 100 years ago and bring them back to our side. More information about these Divine Beasts can be found by locating the four races scattered across Hyrule. The Sheikah Slate will guide you on your way. You must go where it tells you and meet with each leader there.|Impa}}

This will open the [[Locked Mementos]] quest.{{Ref|''Breath of the Wild''|...It seems to me that your Sheikah Slate is not yet complete.

After meeting up with Purah and Symin and restoring some of the power of the Sheikah Slate, they suggest that Link head back and speak with Impa once again. Once Link has done so, this will complete the Locked Mementos quest.{{Ref|''Breath of the Wild''|I heard Purah was giving you the runaround, but you seem just fine.|Impa}}

Impa will glance at Link's update Sheikah Slate and will immediately realize that it is the same camera that Princess Zelda used 100 years ago.{{Ref|''Breath of the Wild''|Now then... Let me see. Aha! This is, without a doubt, the Camera that Princess Zelda used 100 years ago.|Impa}} Impa will task Link in visiting the locations that are shown within the pictures. Doing so may help Link restore some of his lost memories. Additionally, Impa tells Link to visit her once she has found one of these locations.{{Ref|''Breath of the Wild''|It could be that if you visit the locations within those pictures, you will be able to restore some of your lost memories. Come back here once you have tried going to at least one of those locations.
