Biography

Lasli is a member of the Sheikah Tribe living in Kakariko Village. Her job is to call attention to the local Armor Shop owned by Claree called Enchanted.[2] Once Link comes up to speak to her, she immediately begins to fawn over him, saying he is her type and embarrassing the young hero.[3] She takes note of the Sheikah Slate he has with him and has to pause to realize what that means.[4] Her outburst startles Link, but she reels back to point out that he must be quite important.[5]

At 9:00 PM, Lasli will run for home, worried about her Grandmother chastising her.[6] Once she is home, she will take a seat and remove her umbrella. Link can speak to her and she will tell him how she used to catch Sunset Fireflies at night.[7] However, she cannot go out anymore due to the monsters and the Yiga Clan,[8] which causes Lasli to lament her misfortune.[9] If Link is already inside the house when Lasli first comes home, she is frightfully startled at first.[10] Then she realizes who it is and relaxes.[11]

Once Link has had his first meeting with Impa, he can visit Lasli in her home at night, which causes her to remark on his kindness.[12] She tells him of how much she enjoyed the nighttime of the Village,[13] but recalls that now she cannot go out late.[8] Lasli wishes that she could do something about her situation. Later on, she will remark on how pretty the Fireflies were that evening.[14] She admits she used to be good at catching them when she was younger.[15]

Lasli awakens and leaves home at 5:00 AM each morning. She will remark on how Link seems to be wide awake so early.[16] She mentions that she is going to work and that Link can join her if he's looking for clothing.[17]

Even in the Rain, Lasli will wait outside and call out to potential customers.[18]

At night, during "The Stolen Heirloom" Shrine Quest, she will sneak off to the small graveyard and quietly mourn the love of her life who was attacked by a monster.[citation needed] Apparently not even Claree knows of her visits. She mentions someone named Jarod during this,[19] but this person is never met.

Nomenclature

Lasli's name is derived from raspberry; this is especially apparent in the French translation, where her name, Amboise, is two letters off raspberry in French, framboise.
