Ghost Pirate Ship
The Piratian Ship is a wooden sea-faring vessel in Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons, staffed by the Captain and his crew of Piratians.
Oracle of Ages
The unforgiving Sea of Storms[1] stalls the Piratian Ship abreast a ring of whirlpools in the past era of Oracle of Ages.[2] The Captain tells Link that the Sea of Storms disrupted his return voyage from Holodrum[3], and that the Zora Scale is a powerful charm capable of calming these seas.[4] After Link gives the Captain the Zora Scale, the Captain declares he and his crew are off to Holodrum once again.[5] The Captain presents Link the Tokay Eyeball as a token of gratitude, before departing.[6]
Oracle of Seasons
The well-being of the Piratian Ship directly influences Link's passage to the Graveyard and the Explorer's Crypt, the penultimate dungeon in Oracle of Seasons. To reach the Explorer's Crypt, Link travels with the Piratians across the sea west of Horon Village in southern Holodrum. Midway through the journey, a large storm strands the bow of the ship in the Samasa Desert and the stern in Subrosia, near the Subrosia Seaside.[7][8] The Captain does not give the orders to fix the damaged ship until Link finds and polishes the Rusty Bell,[9][10] a relic from the Captain's love, Queen Ambi,[11][12][13] that was lost in the storm.[14] Link finds the rusted bell in the Samasa Desert, has it polished by the Subrosian Smithy,[15] and returns it the Captain. The Captain motivates his crew to fix the ship's damage[16] and drives the ship out of Subrosia towards the Western Coast of Holodrum. The ship docks at the Western Coast, allowing Link passage to the Explorer's Crypt and points west.
