Auction House

The House of Wealth, sometimes known as the Auction House, is located on Windfall Island in The Wind Waker.

Overview
At the beginning of the game, the house is owned by Mila and her father. Mila's Father allows Zunari to hold an auction on the first floor every night. However, when he gives the remainder of his money to pirates and becomes poor, Maggie and her father become rich from the Skull Necklaces Maggie received from a moblin named Moe, they begin living in their house. Maggie and her father live on the second floor apparently continue to allow the auctions below. Link can give Maggie's Father 20 Skull Necklaces, and he will give him a Treasure Chart in return. If Link breaks one of the sparkling vases on the first floor, he will receive a warning, but will be forced to pay 10 Rupees for every subsequent vase he breaks. However, once Maggie and her father buy the mansion, they will no longer charge this fee.

The lower floor of the house is known as the Hall of Wealth. Islanders gather there every night to participate in an auction.

Trivia

 * The eight vases in the house at the beginning of the game can be used to gamble in a sense-- Out of the eight, there are three vases which contain Red Rupees, and for each one Link breaks, he will be charged 10 Rupees upon leaving. If Link can break the three vases that contain the red rupees without touching another vase, he will walk away with 30 Rupees. However, if he just breaks all of them, he will find himself with a 20 rupee deficit. Only Mila's Father charges these fees, and although the fees will cease to exist once Maggie and her father move in, the Red Rupees can no longer be found in the vases, either.
 * This is one of only two houses in the game (and one of the few in the series) that allow Link to use the Sword indoors, the other being Orca's House.
