Runaway Item Seller

Runaway Item Seller is a character in.

Location
The Runaway Item Seller can be found north of the Southern Swamp (one screen south of Link's house/Ravio's Shop), to the left of the northern entrance of the area. He is hiding in a cave concealed within the northern wall, which can be accessed by placing a bomb between the two rocks that sit in front of it. Unlike other caves of this type, there is no crack or boulder indicating its location. There is another cave to the right of the northern entrance that is also hidden between two rocks, but is visibly sealed by a boulder that can be bombed; this is supposedly a clue that the two rocks on the other side are also sitting in front of a cave.

The Runaway's hideout resembles other hidden caves, such as the ones containing the begging Hinox or the Rumor Guy.

Biography
The Runaway Item Seller ran the item shop in Kakariko Village, until he carelessly spent every Rupee he had to buy an apple from the street merchant. His wife was furious with him, so he decided to run away when he got the chance. And so, he has chosen to live his life in hiding until he can sort everything out, and requests a Scoot Fruit so he can safely escape to some secluded dungeon. If Link brings him one, the Runaway will thank him with a Silver Rupee, worth 100 Rupees (despite his money problems).

However, even after receiving the Scoot Fruit, the Runaway does not set out to find a dungeon in which to seclude himself; he is still afraid that he is not properly equipped.
