Island Trading Sequence

In The Wind Waker, the Island Trading Sequence is a sequence of trading certain items to Goron Merchants for other items. Link's first item is a Town Flower from Zunari on Windfall Island to get his shop started.

The young hero can then trade this to merchants who look very similar to Gorons on Mother & Child Isles, Greatfish Isle, and Bomb Island. After every trade, Link will lose his original item and some money in exchange for another trading item. Also, because of the Merchant's Oath, the merchants will send the item they traded to Zunari's Shop. Eventually, Zunari will give Link the Magic Armor, and at the end of the sequence he can trade the Shop Guru Statue to the merchant of Greatfish Island to receive a Piece of Heart.

The fastest way to finish the trading sequence is:


 * Grab the Town Flower from Zunari.
 * Give the Town Flower to Greatfish Isle's Wandering Merchant for a Sea Flower.
 * Present the Sea Flower to Mother & Child Isles' Wandering Merchant for an Exotic Flower.
 * Warp to Bomb Island to talk to the Wandering Merchant and obtain the Pinwheel.
 * Warp to Greatfish Isle to trade the Pinwheel for a Sickle Moon Flag.
 * Back to Mother & Child Isles and exchange the flag for the Fountain Idol.
 * Return to Bomb Island and trade the Fountain Idol for a Big Sale Flag.
 * Warp to Greatfish Isle for the Hero's Flag.
 * At Mother & Child Isles, give the Hero's Flag in for the Postman Statue
 * Return to Bomb Island for the Shop Guru Statue.
 * Go back to Greatfish Isle and exchange the Shop Guru Statue for a Piece of Heart.

After Link talks to each Merchant at least once, he can go back to Zunari to receive the Magic Armor as a reward.
