When Link and Zelda head to the [[Ocean Realm]] to fix the third part of the [[Tower of Spirits]], they find the bridge is out. Making a quick stop at the {{Term|ST|Trading Post|link}} to ask around, they meet Linebeck III, who informs them that a bridge builder lives in the [[Snow Realm]], and should be able to fix the bridge easily.
{{Term|ST|Linebeck III}} is the grandson of {{Term|PH|Linebeck|link}} from {{PH}}, and the owner of the {{Term|ST|Linebeck Trading Company|link}}, which operates at a location called the {{Term|ST|Trading Post|link}}. When {{Term|ST|Link|link}} and {{Term|ST|Princess Zelda|link}} are heading toward the {{Term|ST|Ocean Realm|link}} to restore the third part of the {{Term|ST|Tower of Spirits|link}}, they find the bridge to the Realm is broken.<ref>{{Cite|How are we supposed to get to the other side with the bridge in this state? Maybe someone around here can fix it for us.|Princess Zelda|ST}}</ref> Making a quick stop at the nearby {{Term|ST|Trading Post}} to ask around, they meet {{Term|ST|Linebeck III}}, who introduces himself as an expert treasure hunter in the same arrogant manner as his grandfather.<ref>{{Cite|I'm {{Color|ST Light Blue|Linebeck III}}, president of Linebeck Trading. I hunt down the rarest antiques from around the world... Then I sell them to the highest bidder! How's that for an introduction?|Linebeck III|ST}}</ref> {{Term|ST|Linebeck III}} informs the young engineer that he knows a [[Bridge Worker]] living in the {{Term|ST|Snow Realm|link}} who should be able to repair the bridge, though {{Term|ST|Link}} would have to provide transportation.<ref>{{Cite|But I agree that the bridge is a sad mess. The huge storms we had really did a number on it. I was going to call a {{Color|ST Light Blue|bridge worker}} I know in the {{Color|ST Light Red|Snow Realm}} to fix the mess. But with the Spirit Tracks vanishing, I've got bigger fish to fry. See, I deal with merchants all over the world, and I can't get anywhere now! Wait... You're an engineer, aren't you? Well, that's just perfect! Go fetch that bridge worker so we can both get on with our business. Sounds good?|Linebeck III|ST}}</ref>


After Link and Zelda successfully transport the builder, he reveals that the price of the bridge, as well as the repairs on Linebeck's house he did a while ago, should add up to five-thousand Rupees. Linebeck, shocked at the price, enlists the help of Link to gather up the money. He gives the hero a letter from [[Linebeck|his grandfather]], written before his death, that leads to the location of his last piece of treasure: a [[Treasure|Regal Ring]].
After {{Term|ST|Link}} successfully brings {{Term|ST|Kenzo}} to the {{Term|ST|Trading Post}}, the Bridge Worker surveys the damage and agrees to fix the bridge for a steep fee of 5,000 {{Plural|ST|Rupee|link}}; a price that includes previous debts that {{Term|ST|Linebeck III}} apparently owes.<ref>{{Cite|Course, course. Just leave it to me! Shouldn't be a problem. Assumin', of course, that you've got my repair fee on hand. Ya do, right? Ya also still owe me for the work I did on your house. So along with the bridge... Hmm, I'd say 5,000 Rupees oughta cover the bill nicely!|Kenzo|ST}}</ref> {{Term|ST|Linebeck III|display=Linebeck}}, shocked at the price, enlists the help of {{Term|ST|Link}} to gather up the money.<ref>{{Cite|Well, relax. I've got a great idea I'm willing to share with you. We can scrape that moolah together IF you're willing to do a little work for me.|Linebeck III|ST}}</ref> He gives the young hero a [[Linebeck's Letter|Letter from his grandfather]], written before his death, that leads to the location of his last piece of buried {{Term|ST|Treasure|link}}: a {{Term|ST|Regal Ring|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|Fantastic! Here's the letter Gramps left behind, for your reference. Figure out the riddle, get your hands on the Regal Ring, and make us rich!|Linebeck III|ST}}</ref>


When Link returns with the ring, the bridge builder takes it to pay Linebeck's debt, and from that point Linebeck III will buy off Link's treasure, and trade for train parts as well.
Once {{Term|ST|Link}} locates the Ring and returns it to {{Term|ST|Linebeck III}}, {{Term|ST|Kenzo}} takes it for himself as payment, despite the {{Term|ST|Treasure}} being worth 3,000 {{Plural|ST|Rupee}} more than {{Term|ST|Linebeck III|display=Linebeck}}'s debt.<ref>{{Cite|Sure is! And now that the work's done, I'll take that ring as payment! So this little doodad's worth 8,000 Rupees? Coulda fooled me. Still, it beats takin' another IOU!|Kenzo|ST}}</ref> Though dismayed at the loss, {{Term|ST|Linebeck III}} recognizes {{Term|ST|Link}}'s talent for finding {{Term|ST|Treasure}}, and from then on will buy any that {{Term|ST|Link}} brings him, or trade them for new {{Plural|ST|Train Car|link}} for the {{Term|ST|Spirit Train|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|I guess that's that. Still, you've got a real talent for sniffing out treasure. Ooh! Tell you what--from here on out, bring any treasure you find to me! If they impress me, I'll trade you some lovely new train cars for those trinkets!|Linebeck III|ST}}</ref> {{Term|ST|Linebeck III|display=Linebeck}} will also sell the young hero a new {{Term|ST|Shield|link}} for 100 {{Plural|ST|Rupee}}, should he lose his to a {{Term|ST|Like Like|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|Beware of shield-gobbling monsters ahead! Those who've lost a shield can procure a shiny new one at Linebeck Trading!|Sign|ST}}</ref> Some time after {{Term|ST|Link}} completes the {{Term|ST|Sand Temple|link}}, {{Term|ST|Linebeck III|display=Linebeck}} expresses an interest in {{Term|ST|Dark Ore|link}}, and will reward him with {{Term|ST|Force Gem 19|link}} (which creates access to the {{Term|ST|Lost at Sea Station|link}}) for transporting five or more units from the {{Term|ST|Dark Ore Mine|link}} back to the {{Term|ST|Trading Post}}.<ref>{{Cite|Hey, kid! You ever heard of Dark Ore? It shines in the dark and melts if sunlight hits it! Strange, eh? Lots of folks are looking for some these days. If you stumble across some, save a piece for me!|Linebeck III|ST}}</ref> Subsequent deliveries of {{Term|ST|Dark Ore}} will net {{Term|ST|Link}} a random piece of {{Term|ST|Treasure}} valued at 500 {{Plural|ST|Rupee}} or more.

==Trivia==
*Inside the Trading Post, Link can find a small statue of [[Tingle]], along with a golden counterpart. He can also find what is presumed to be [[Aryll]]'s [[Telescope]], a model of [[Tetra's Ship]], two closed [[Treasure Chest]]s, and a bag similar to the [[Bomb Bag]].
*Inside the Trading Post, the music that plays is Linebeck's theme from {{PH|-}}.
