Another new Twilight Princess HD tweet has been posted on the Japanese Zelda Twitter account. Similar to the most recent entry, today’s message focuses on a particular character and shows off concept art.

Here’s the lowdown on Ilia from “Malo”:

“…It’s Malo. Hey you… Are you frightened by Ilia? She’s normally kind, but when she’s mad she’s very scary indeed… such Ilia used to be naughty in the past… You see, she put things like a fairy sticker on her forehead… But when you look at it closer, it feels rather eerie.”
