{{Term|BotW|Purah}} is the director of the {{Term|BotW|Hateno Ancient Tech Lab|link}}, where she works with her assistant {{Term|BotW|Symin|link}}. Her research and experimentation with an anti-aging rune caused her to grow younger. Though she appears as a young girl,<ref>{{Cite|I now look and feel like a 6-year-old.|Purah's Diary|BotW}}</ref> she is around 124 years old.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= CaC|publisher= |page= }}</ref> She is the older sister of {{Term|BotW|Impa|link}}.<ref name= "Sister"/>

When approached by {{Term|BotW|Link|}}, she gives him a greeting and asks if he has come for the director of the Lab.<ref>{{Cite|Good morning. This is the {{Color|BotW Blue|Hateno Ancient Tech Lab}}. Do you have some business with the {{Color|BotW Red|director}}?|Purah|BotW}}</ref> If he says yes, she claims the director is in the back and asks {{Term|BotW|Link}} not to bother them long.<ref>{{Cite|The {{Color|BotW Red|director}} is in the back. A terribly busy person, that one. Please try to keep it brief.|Purah|BotW}}</ref> She does take a moment to notice that {{Term|BotW|Link}} appears to be a traveler on an adventure.<ref>{{Cite|A traveler, eh?|Purah|BoTW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Judging by your equipment and that gleam in your eye... I'd say you must be in the midst of an epic journey.|Purah|BotW}}</ref> Should {{Term|BotW|Link}} say that he'd spoken to the director, she pretends to be pleased and hopes that he remembers the Lab fondly.<ref>{{Cite|Well, well. If your visit here today leaves you with fond memories of your journey, then I too, will be most pleased.|Purah|BotW}}</ref>

Once {{Term|BotW|Link}} has been informed of her true identity, she confirms it.<ref>{{Cite|Hey! Heeeey! Are you surprised?! The director of this laboratory is NOT Symin. It's ME! Snappity snap!|Purah|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Purah}} asks him about any dreams he may have had during his {{Term|BotW|Slumber of Restoration|link}}, calling him "Linky" and pointing out that he has not changed.<ref>{{Cite|Wanywaaay. Linky! Do you remember any dreams from your time in the {{Color|BotW Blue|Slumber of Restoration}}? You don't look like you've changed a bit in the last 100 years, but SOMETHING must have happened in all that time!|Purah|BotW}}</ref> She is happy to see him well,<ref>{{Cite|Well, no matter! I'm just happy you're still in one piece.|Purah|BotW}}</ref> but his blank look helps her realize that he no longer recognizes her.<ref>{{Cite|...Linky? What's with that look? You do still remember me, right?|Purah|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|[I remember...] Hmm... I heard the hesitation in your voice.|Purah|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|[I don't remember.] Really?! Well! I'm so shocked I don't know if I'll ever be able to recover from this!|Purah|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Purah}} reveals that she was the one to originally take {{Term|BotW|Link}} to the {{Term|BotW|Shrine of Resurrection|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|Even though, 100 years ago, I took you to the {{Color|BotW Blue|Shrine of Resurrection}} after {{Color|BotW Blue|Calamity Ganon}} fatally wounded you... Even though I was the one who put you safely into the {{Color|BotW Blue|Slumber of Restoration}}...|Purah|BotW}}</ref> She asks {{Term|BotW|Link}} again if he cannot remember her and his response prompts her to pull out a notebook to take notes.<ref>{{Cite|<small>Hmm... As expected. After 100 years in the {{Color|BotW Blue|Slumber of Restoration}}, subject...has...lost...all...memories. Noted!</small>|Purah|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Purah}} admits that she does this often and asks {{Term|BotW|Link}} if he has any questions.<ref>{{Cite|Oh, sooooorry... I have a bad habit of taking notes rather abruptly like that. It's a charming quirk, isn't it? Anyhoo... Do you have any questions for me?|Purah|BotW}}</ref>

Naturally, {{Term|BotW|Link}} is confused by her appearance. At first, Purah claims his observation is rude, but realizes that he has a good point.<ref>{{Cite|[Aren't you a child?] How very rude! <small>Hm, or perhaps it's not rude at all... I suppose that's actually a rather logical conclusion to jump to.</small>|Purah|BotW}}</ref> She explains that it is due to a faulty experiment and asks him not to look into it in her {{Term|BotW|Purah's Diary|link|display= diary}}.<ref>{{Cite|The truth is, I look this way because of a failed experiment. Well, I say "failed," but...in some ways, it was a success. I documented the full affair in my {{Color|BotW Blue|diary upstairs}}. BUT! The whole thing is embarrassing, so I insist you refrain from reading it!|Purah|BotW}}</ref> She pushes the topic back to {{Term|BotW|Calamity Ganon|link}} and {{Term|BotW|Link}}'s quest.<ref>{{Cite|Anyway. Enough about that! Back to the topic at hand! Here you are, after 100 years! Here to defeat {{Color|BotW Blue|Calamity Ganon}}, who is growing in strength with every passing moment! And to rescue our beloved {{Color|BotW Blue|Princess Zelda}}! That is, if you've got the courage to try.|Purah|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Purah}} explains that she intends to help him by fixing the {{Term|BotW|Sheikah Slate|}}.<ref>{{Cite|And to help the one true hero, I, the one and only Purah, will restore the {{Color|BotW Red|basic functions}} missing from the {{Color|BotW Blue|Sheikah Slate}}! Aaaand what do you say to thaaaat?|Purah|BotW}}</ref> If {{Term|BotW|Link}} asks her to repeat what she said, {{Term|BotW|Purah}} pulls out her notebook again to note it before telling him to pay attention.<ref>{{Cite|[Once more?] <small>Hmmm... I see, I see. Post-{{Color|BotW Blue|Slumber of Restoration}}, the subject's verbal comprehension skills have...somewhat...atrophied. Noted!</small> This is the really important bit, so listen up!|Purah|BotW}}</ref> Should {{Term|BotW|Link}} decide to refuse, {{Term|BotW|Purah}} is at first annoyed, but then decides to give him the time to change his mind.<ref>{{Cite|Oh, REALLY? <small>Hmmm... Post {{Color|BotW Blue|Slumber of Restoration}}, subject has a tendency to give...uncomfortable...responses...to questions. Noted!</small> Well, if you change your mind... You know where to find me.|Purah|BotW}}</ref>

Once {{Term|BotW|Link}} agrees to {{Term|BotW|Purah}}'s help, she asks him to run a quick errand.<ref>{{Cite|I knew you'd say that! All right, then. First I need you to run an {{Color|BotW Red|errand}} for me.|Purah|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Link}} seems to give her an odd look and she asks if he thought she would help him for free.<ref>{{Cite|... What's with that look on your face? You didn't think I'd fix your {{Color|BotW Blue|Sheikah Slate}} for free, did you?|Purah|BotW}}</ref> If {{Term|BotW|Link}} admits that he did, she will take more notes.<ref>{{Cite|[I did.] <small>Hmmm... Post {{Color|BotW Blue|Slumber of Restoration}}, subject is plagued by...presumptuous...tendencies. Noted!</small>|Purah|BotW}}</ref> {{Term|BotW|Purah}} explains the errand for him, stating that she requires their furnace lit to restore his {{Term|BotW|Runes]]. <ref>{{Cite|Let me explain what this errand entails. You know the unlit {{Color|BotW Blue|furnace}} on the wall just outside this laboratory? Could you please bring the {{Color|BotW Blue|blue flame}} from the {{Color|BotW Blue|ancient furnace}} in town? Oh, and also use it to light our {{Color|BotW Blue|furnace}}? This sweet little {{Color|BotW Blue|Guidance Stone}} will start working once you do that, allowing us to restore your missing {{Color|BotW Red|runes}}!|Purah|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|OK then. I'm counting on you for that {{Color|BotW Blue|blue flame}}!|Purah|BotW}}</ref> She quietly wonders if people still use the same language that she does.<ref>{{Cite|<small>{{Color|BotW Gray|Huh... I wonder if young women these days still say things like "sweet" and "little." Ah, well. I suppose it doesn't matter anyway.}}</small>|Purah|BotW}}</ref>
