The Waterfall, also called the Waterfall Cave, is a location in Skyward Sword. It is infested by Keese and Chuchus, and is also the location of the Moonlight Merchant.

Appearance and Features
The Waterfall is a small cavern located directly beneath the large waterfall on the island of Skyloft. It is infested by a number of monsters including Keese and Chuchus, and cannot be entered without a sword. It is first visited when Link is looking for his Crimson Loftwing, which has recently gone missing. After speaking to a majority of the inhabitants of Skyloft. Pipit informs Link about the whereabouts of his missing Loftwing, suggesting that Groose may be behind the disappearance. He then presses on to tell Link that Fledge was forced to keep it a secret from him. Groose and his gang had captured and hidden Link's Crimson Loftwing near their hideout which is located beside the Waterfall. Link proceeds to enter the cave and senses the cries of his Loftwing nearby, however the entrance is blocked by a bunch of wooden pegs that can only be cut down with a sword. After obtaining a Practice Sword from Eagus at the Knight Academy, Link ventures inside. After exiting the Waterfall, Link meets up with Zelda and finds his Loftwing trapped behind a number of large wooden planks. After cutting down the planks his Crimson Loftwing is freed, and he may participate in the Wing Ceremony.

After obtaining the Goddess Harp from Zelda at the Temple of Time, Link can return to the Waterfall and strum his harp near a patch of Blessed Butterflies to awaken an odd Gossip Stone known at the "Moonlight Merchant." The Moonlight Merchant is a shady dealer that will sell Link rare Treasures for a large number of Rupees each.
