Wanderer's Journals - Key Information
There are 14 Wanderer's Journals in Hollow Knight. Some are given as rewards by NPCs, while most are simply hidden across the world.
Wanderer's Journal is a type of collectible in Hollow Knight that serves as a sellable trinket. Visit Relic Seeker Lemm in City of Tears and sell him your journals for 200 Geo.
It is recommended to not sell them straight away, but only when you need the Geo - because accidental death means risking losing your Geo, while collectibles stay in your inventory.
The first Wanderer's Journals you sell to Relic Seeker Lemm give unique lore dialogue from the NPC. While they are journals, you are unable to read them.
Collecting Wanderer's Journals does not count toward 112%.
