In this installment, we’re also making the acquaintance of Impa’s elder brother, Ruberi, more famously recognized as Robbie from “Zelda: Breath of the Wild” and “Tears of the Kingdom”. Robbie is a scholar among the Sheikah, specialized in Guardians, instrumental in reactivating their functions, and significantly contributed to Link’s rescue during the Great Calamity.

A newcomer to the scene is Minister Sadaari, an esteemed assistant in the Hyrule administration, boasting unique violet tresses. Known for her stern yet courteous demeanor, she commands respect within the Kingdom of Hyrule.
