Template:Character The Carpet Merchant is a salesman who runs a shop in the Haunted Wasteland in Ocarina of Time.[1] He sits on a Flying Carpet and Bombchu in bundles of ten for 200 Rupees a bundle.[2] Link can access his flying carpet by using the Hover Boots to cross onto it. It is unknown why the salesman runs a business in such a remote area.
Trivia
- Although difficult, it is possible to jump to the Flying Carpet without the aid of the Hover Boots.
- His dialogue contains a typo or mistranslation. He greets Link with a hearty "Well Come" instead of the proper "Welcome."[3] However, the typo was fixed in the Nintendo Gamecube release of the game. [4]
- He physically resembles the Crenel Hermit from The Minish Cap and the Bottle Merchant from A Link to the Past.
