Ghirahim

Demon Lord Ghirahim is a character featured in Skyward Sword.

Battle
At one point in the game, Link is forced to fight against Ghirahim. Link must hit the Demon Lord several times with his sword, although Ghirahim is capable of easily dodging and blocking Link's sword strikes with just two fingers. After being hit enough times, Ghirahim will draw a sword of his own. Throughout the fight, he can vanish at will and transport to another part of the room. He can also summon pink spike-like objects which he can throw at the young hero to damage him. While Ghirahim is wielding his sword, he will briefly charge at Link and unleash a powerful strike at him.

At the end of the fight, Ghirahim is surprised at Link's skills but reminds him that Link's sword is the only reason the young hero is still alive. He also tells him that the presence of the "girl", possibly Zelda, has faded from where they are. Before leaving, Ghirahim warns that if Link meets him again, he will die.
