 Hilda is first seen after [[Link]] first enters Lorule. [[Yuga]] summons [[Ganon]] using the power of the kidnapped [[Seven Sages]].{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|I will use the Sages to reach the one who shall help me attain true beauty. I mean, of course... Ganon!|Yuga}} Yuga combines with Ganon and gains the [[Triforce of Power]], knocking out Link in the process.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|Behold! Join with me! Let us destroy all ugliness in this world or any other. We shall be TRULY superior!|Yuga}} However, just as Link is about to be destroyed by Yuga, Hilda appears and binds the monster with her power.{{Ref|''[[Prima Games A Link Between Worlds Strategy Guide]]''|A blinding flash fills the room, and a dark-haired maiden appears before Link. Using some sort of mysterious power, the woman holds the mighty Ganon at bay, trapping him with some sort of restrictive magic!|pg. 146}} She explains that she can only hold him for a short while, but she takes the time to welcome Link to Lorule and introduce herself.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|Oh, Hero of Hyrule, I can hold the beast at bay for only so long. It should prove enough time to bid you a most sorrowful welcome to my kingdom. Welcome to Lorule. My name is Princess Hilda, and I have failed you in every way.|Hilda}} Even though she knew of Yuga's plan to imprison the Sages, she claims she was unable to stop him.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|I knew Yuga planned to slip into your world to abduct Zelda and the Sages. I... I couldn't stop him. Now he has used them to summon the Demon King and siphon his power.|Hilda}} Knowing the extent of Yuga's power, Hilda warns Link that if Yuga is released, he will destroy not only Lorule, but [[Hyrule]] as well.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|Yuga's appetite will soon consume our worlds. Hyrule and Lorule—the beast's for the taking.|Hilda}} Yuga begins to break free, and Hilda tells Link that she can hold him back no longer and quicking warps both of them to safety.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|I cannot hold him back much longer. So... I must see you to safety.|Hilda}}
 Once Hilda and Link are in a place of safety, she asks Link to do what she cannot: defeat Yuga.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|Ah, here we are... A moment more of safety, Link. Though Yuga is slipping his bonds, I will try to keep you safe from him as long as I can. I'm afraid I must ask you to do what I cannot—defeat the beast.|Hilda}} In order to do so, Link must reach his full potential by rescuing the sages from the Lorulean [[dungeon]]s they have been trapped in.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|To do that, you must awaken your full potential, Hero of Hyrule. I sense that the paintings of Hyrule's Seven Sages are being sent to the far corners of Lorule. You must steal those paintings back. The secret to Yuga's defeat lies in uniting your friends!|Hilda}} Hilda finally bids Link farewell and send him away.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|Farewell, Hero of Hyrule... We shall meet again...|Hilda}}

It is I, Princess Hilda. I wanted to warn you about the kingdom in which you've found yourself. My Lorule may remind you of your own home.

 Throughout the game, Hilda contacts Link telepathically whenever he enters new locations in Lorule, always beginning by welcoming him back to the kingdom and ending it with "So say I, Hilda of Lorule."{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link...|Hilda}}{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|So say I, Hilda of Lorule...|Hilda}} She usually offers a hint as to what Link can expect to find in the area. Hilda shows that she has very extensive knowledge of all of the areas of her kingdom and seems to display some capacity for sensing the future. She also seems to hold many regrets over her kingdom's state of being. She often describes the greatness of its previous state of being compared to its current, such as explaining that the [[Lorule Graveyard]] was once a holy place.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link... Where you stand now was once a holy place. Now it could not be farther away from such a thing. However, nearby sleeps something that will help you on your journey. A thorough search will behoove you. So say I, Hilda of Lorule...|Hilda}} While Link is approaching the [[Dark Palace (A Link Between Worlds)|Dark Palace]], she expresses remorse over the loss of many Lorulean soldiers, who abandoned the castle to follow the [[Gemasaur King|beast]] that sleeps within the palace.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|You are nearing the Dark Palace. It is home to the followers of a great and terrible beast. They were once soldiers from [[Lorule Castle]]. Now they revere a foul being and cower here in this temple.|Hilda}} She accepts full responsibility, blaming herself for being too weak.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|I accept the responsibility. I was too weak to protect them. They were all good people... my people. If they find you, they will imprison you. Please be careful. So say I, Hilda of Lorule...|Hilda}}
