Answer:

The impact that the archetype of the pure maiden have on the story is Mangan's sister sets the hero's quest in motion when she requests a gift from the bazaar.

Step-by-step explanation:

The story of "Araby" by James Joyce has several examples of archetypes, one of the most important is the pure maiden one, expressed by Mangan's sister, who is the love interest of the narrator, and as she asks for a present from the bazaar he decides to go on a quest to get it and become the hero of the story for his muse.
