Description Im on a roll lately.

This is Impa, as she appears in the instruction booklet for Zelda II: Adventure of Link. She never appeared in game until OOT, but she has her place in the series history as a classic character. Gonna put her in my tumblr's "Characters" Section, so she might get some asks.

I did read one rumor on a Zelda wiki, that she died in Links arms in Zelda 1's story, but she ended up being the old woman selling potions, so she faked her death. Her design in Zelda 1's instruction book was identical to the old woman's. I tried looking this up, but couldn't find it anywhere else, so im guessing it's bogus.

That bit of art showing Impa faking her death can also be found in Hyrule Historia, bugive you a [link] to the scans of the manual.

I saw that picture before, but nothing about it looks like she's dying. Every other source I find says Link found her fleeing from Ganon's Minions.
