Impa: Difference between revisions

[[File:Impa-Sprite.png|left]] 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 surround 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.  

In a [[Linked Game]], Impa will give Link a [[Wooden Shield]] instead of the Wooden Sword.

She is later revealed as one of the seven descendants of the Seven Sages. She is captured by [[Yuga]] and held within his possession.

Impa, along with the six other sages use their power to give Link the [[Triforce of Courage]] and also work to break the barrier that is surrounding [[Lorule Castle]].

Impa will then tell Link about the [[Great Calamity]] from 100 years ago and the four [[Divine Beast]]s.{{Ref|''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''', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''.}}{{Ref|''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''', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''.}}

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|''Now then... Let me see. Aha! This is, without a doubt, the Camera that Princess Zelda used 100 years ago.'' - '''Impa''', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''.}} 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|''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. There is something I wish to give to you.'' - '''Impa''', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''.}} This will begin another one of the new main quests titled [[Captured Memories]].
