Zelda Skyward Sword HD - Impa
Impa is the mysterious woman from the Sheikah tribe who rescues Zelda and becomes her bodyguard, all in honor of the request of the goddess Hylia. When she meets Link in the Earth Temple, she chastises him for his inability to protect Zelda.


When Zelda regained her memories as the goddess Hylia, Impa takes Zelda to the Temple of Hylia back in her time using the Gate of Time. Impa then puts herself in suspended animation to keep Demise from breaking his seal.
