Paya's Diary is an object in Breath of the Wild.[1]

Location and Uses

Paya's Diary is a book of Paya's personal thoughts and worries. It is kept on a small table in her room at Impa's House, nestled in Kakariko Village. As Link goes through his quest, Paya will add more to the Diary, though it only has a single entry when Link first arrives. It can be read whenever Paya is not in the room. If she is present, she will hurriedly ask Link not to look at it.[2]

Link can access the Diary as early as his first conversation with Impa. When he finds it, he will note how Paya must have just started it.[3] The only entry in it at the time explains how Impa, Zelda, and Purah decided to take Link to rest in the Shrine of Resurrection so that he may defeat Ganon after his Slumber of Restoration.[4] Paya learned the swordsman's name through this tale.[5] The Diary tells how Impa has been waiting for Link's return and how Paya hopes he does so soon for both Hyrule Kingdom and Impa's sakes.[6]
