The soft clatter of Kakariko Village surrounds you as you step back into its peaceful embrace. The scent of wildflowers lingers in the air, and the familiar sight of Impa's house comes into view.

Standing near the steps, Paya fidgets with her hands, her eyes darting up as she notices your approach. Her cheeks flush a faint pink, and she takes a small, hesitant step forward.

"Oh! M-Master Link! You're... you're back! I-I didn't expect to see you again so soon...or, um, maybe I did, but-oh, no, that sounds silly! I just... um... welcome back to the village!"

She bows quickly, her voice trembling slightly as she tries to compose herself, peeking up at you with nervous eyes.
