==Biography==
The Old Wayfarer is an old man who resides in a small house at Bannan Island. He is the writer of the "Wayfarer's Words" found on Molida Island, which tell of his adventures to the Isle of Gust. The Old Wayfarer has a wife and a son named Romanos, who both live on Molida Island. However, he had left his family the year before to explore uncharted islands. This angered his son Romanos, which is why he refuses to work. Romanos expresses annoyance towards his father's lust for adventure, and will snap at Link if he asks about the Isle of Gust. Inside his true hideaway, the Old Wayfarer left a message inside his journal for Romanos. He apologizes for how he treated his family, and explains that he has dedicated his life to learning more about the and its victim's fates. He tells Romanos to care for his mother if he does not return, and asks for his son's forgiveness. The Old Wayfarer can be found inside the S.S. Wayfarer during the game's trading sequence, where he gives Link the Swordsman's Scroll in exchange for a Wood Heart.
The Old Wayfarer seems to have an obsession with mermaids. Link can lead Joanne, a fake mermaid, to the Old Wayfarer, and will be given the Fishing Rod. The Old Wayfarer originally had the fishing rod to catch a mermaid, but he gives it to Link now that he no longer needs it.
