| Given by | Impa, in Kakariko Village, after Locked Mementos |
| Region | All of Hyrule |
| Objective | Visit the places shown in twelve photos in the Album |
| Reward | Memories restored; Champion’s Tunic for collecting every memory |
Your album holds twelve pictures taken by Princess Zelda. Stand on the exact spot shown and a flashback plays. Pikango, the painter who stays at stables and towns, gives hints. After all twelve are found, a final memory in Ash Swamp, the battlefield outside Fort Hateno, appears. Collecting every memory earns you the Champion’s Tunic.
How the quest works
Each photo shows a landmark. Go there and a glowing spot starts the memory. Memories can be rewatched from the Adventure Log. Pikango appears only in the daytime at the stable or town nearest the location.

Solution
Central Hyrule memories
Sacred Ground Ruins is a pool and dais south of the castle patrolled by a Guardian: sneak to the dais in the middle. Lake Kolomo lies north of the Great Plateau; the memory is on a small ridge on the west bank. The Irch Plain memory is under a large tree among pools beyond the Royal Ancient Lab ruins. Sanidin Park Ruins has a horse statue at the top of a hill.
Hyrule Castle
The Father and Daughter memory is high in a spire north of the castle’s gatehouses. Enter from the west, dodge the Guardians and cross the walkway between the spire and the collapsed room. One flying Guardian patrols the spire.
Eldin and Akkala
A Premonition is on a plateau high in the west of Eldin Canyon, marked by a ring of small stones and overlooking Woodland Tower. Spring of Power in Akkala is a pool with a statue between two trees.
Tabantha and the desert
Ancient Columns lies across Tabantha Great Bridge past the stable; climb the ridge to Tena Ko’sah Shrine and the memory is in front of it. Kara Kara Bazaar’s memory is at the oasis edge.
Necluda and the east
Lanayru Road’s East Gate is reached via the hills above Kakariko, past the Great Fairy fountain and through the promenade guarded by Bokoblins and a Moblin. Shelter from the Storm is under a tree with two small statues on a hill across the river from Scout’s Hill. Despair is in a clearing in the forest across the river from Wetland Stable.
The final memory
After the twelve, a thirteenth picture appears: Zelda’s Awakening in Ash Swamp, the battlefield in front of Fort Hateno. Look near the middle of the battlefield by the large pools of water. Collecting every memory earns you the Champion’s Tunic.
Rewards
- Each memory reveals the story of the Calamity.
- Champion’s Tunic for recovering all of the memories.
