Initially, Nabooru might seem somewhat haughty, a tad selfish and a bit of a "tough guy". Of course, she is addressing Link in his child form, with no knowledge of who he is or where he has come from. Indeed, she is entirely ready to employ him for a dangerous task, retrieving the Silver Gauntlets from deep within the Spirit Temple. And seems to do so with little regard for his safety. But all of this is excusable: it comes from a person who is now a "lone wolf".

Nabooru has expressed dismay and disgust at the wickedness of her king, and has resolved herself to oppose him in every and any way that she is able to do so. Her sarcasm and attitude speak volumes about someone who is conflicted within herself. While she has made up her mind to fight against Ganondorf and his followers, she probably worries about the consequences for the rest of her people. Such revolutions are almost never bloodless. Suffice to say, Nabooru is a prime example of "rough around the edges, warm-hearted on the inside". The toughness she exudes may be a way to reassure herself in times of such uncertainty.
