Link first meets Impa after sneaking past the guards in [[Hyrule Castle]] to meet with Princess Zelda. Impa then teaches Link [[Zelda's Lullaby]] because of what Zelda's dream had foretold. She then escorts Link out of the castle. After they are safely outside the Castle, Impa advises Link to go to Kakariko Village and see what clues he can find that lead to the [[Goron's Ruby|Spiritual Stone of Fire]].

Upon collecting all the [[Spiritual Stones]], Link returns to a scene much like the dream he had at the start of the game. Impa is shown fleeing on a white horse with Zelda. Zelda then throws an object at Link, which he discovers to be the [[Ocarina of Time]]. [[Ganon|Ganondorf]] is shown following close behind them on a black horse, and questions Link as to which direction Impa and Zelda went. It becomes apparent that Ganondorf has taken over Hyrule Castle, and this forced Impa to flee with Zelda.

Seven years later when Link goes to Kakariko in order to investigate the location of the [[Shadow Medallion]], Link finds out that Impa has sealed away a [[Bongo Bongo|great evil]] in the [[Bottom of the Well]] prior to the events in ''Ocarina of Time''. This great evil had taken up residence in the [[Shadow Temple]], and Impa had disappeared trying to seal it again. After defeating [[Bongo Bongo]], the great evil, Impa awakens as the Sage of Shadow. She asks Link to take care of Zelda since her duties of being a [[Seven Sages|Sage]] keep her from Zelda's side. Impa and the other Sages lend Link their power in sealing Ganondorf. Impa is last seen during the end credits standing atop [[Death Mountain]] with the other Sages.

[[File:Impa-Sprite.png|left]]In ''Oracle of Ages'', Impa is the Royal Nurse for Princess Zelda and has cared for her since her birth. Impa was sent to [[Labrynna]] by Princess Zelda with instruction to bring [[Nayru (Oracle)|Nayru]] back to Hyrule in order to protect her from shadows that surrounding her. Impa is found early in the game being attacked by a trio of [[Octorok]]s but once Link appears, the octoroks quickly run off. Impa is looking for Nayru and with Link's help she is able to reach the Oracle. However, it is revealed that [[Veran]] had been controlling Impa and used Link to reach Nayru and possess her body.

After reverting back to her normal self, she thanks Link for saving her. After seeing the symbol of the Triforce on Link's left hand, she tells Link that he is the hero that must save this world. She will give you the [[Wooden Sword]], which was entrusted to her by Princess Zelda. Impa will then take refuge in Nayru's house for much of the game.
