Where Are the Other Sheikah?

[Rare Addict]

When I heard that Impa was going to be one of the central characters of Skyward Sword, I instantly started getting excited about the prospect of meeting other members of the Sheikah race. Even after the release of SS, however, these Shadow Folk still maintain, more or less, the same level of secrecy as they had back in Ocarina of Time.

My question is, where are the rest of the Sheikah? In OoT and [especially] Twilight Princess, it's understandable that only member of the race exists, as it's mentioned that the race died off over time. With Skyward Sword being the earliest game in the timeline, though, you would think that there would be more of 'em roaming around.

What do you think, though? Were the remaining Sheikah killed during the war against Demise, or were they simply in hiding?

Nintendo tends to focus more on gameplay than story. The reason the sheikah are absent in skyward sword is because Hyrule has not been established yet, the land below is not yet Hyrule. No Hyrule=No Sheikah, well thats my guess to it. Zelda games usually always have plotholes like these all the time because like I said Nintendo focuses on gameplay first then they work on the story.
