The Rock Spire Shop Ship is a shop in The Wind Waker.[1]
Features and Overview[]
The Rock Spire Shop Ship is a special instance of Beedle's Shop Ship that appears only at Rock Spire Isle. It is operated by Beedle's Assistant, who is in fact just Beedle in a comically obvious disguise. The sides of the ship are draped in purple cloth that cover the paint of Beedle's likeness.
When Link enters the shop for the first time, Beedle's Assistant pretends not to know him from before. He claims to be holding a "clearance sale" on account of the shop's imminent closure in seven days.[2] This turns out to be a marketing ploy—the day after closing day, reopens the shop and holds a "Grand Reopening Sale" where the prices are no different from before.[3] He claims to have closed the shop for interior remodeling,[4] but in reality he merely changed the drapes to the ones seen in other Beedle Shop Ships.
The wares of the Rock Spire Shop Ship are mounted on Skulls. A hanging Lantern casts gloomy shadows from above. This, some clothes hanging on the back wall, and the drapes (before the remodeling) are the only visual differences from other Shop Ships. The ship itself moves more rapidly than the other Shop Ships.[clarification needed]
