Serena (Dragon Quest XI): Difference between revisions

Line 61:

As a result of [[Time travel|travelling back in time]] to a point before The Fall, all of her Act Two development is removed.

After the events at [[Yggdrasil]], defeating [[Mordegon]] again at [[Heliodor]] and the rise of the [[Calasmos|Dark One]], the party is directed to the [[Emerald Coast]] to get a better view of the Dark Star. There, they are found by Mordegon, who actually turns out to just be party's perception of [[The Seer]]. The Seer tells the party something vague about riding [[Cetacea]] to meet the [[Watchers]] and also something about a legendary flute before disappearing. The mention of the flute prompts Veronica to give the Luminary the [[calamus flute]] and he proceeds to summon the aforementioned [[huge flying whale]], to the party's complete and utter surprise. As guided by the Watcher Elder [[Eegoltap]] at [[Havens Above]], the party searches for information of the Age of Heroes, the party travelling the world in search of three [[Yggdrasil seedlings]] that hold memories of the Heroes of Legend. After the third memory, the party is confronted by [[The Seer]], who gifts Veronica a pendant that returns her body to her natural adult form. The Seer then tells the twins to pray hard, harder than they ever have before, and they glow brightly before turning into a white glowing tree. Interacting with this tree also shows memories of the ancient Heroes, perhaps implying that the twins may be channeling power from [[Yggdrasil]] Herself. After the visions end, the sisters return to normal, and Veronica's body is also smaller again. One of the visions leads them to the [[Tower of Time]], picking up the [[Wheel of Time]] from Havens Above to unlock the door. They confront The Timekeeper again, asking if they were the legendary sage [[Serenica]] who they had seen transform into The Timekeeper in the visions, but The Timekeeper has no recollection of their past life due to being turned into a large [[tockle]]. However, she has figments of memories attached to the flute and the flying whale Cetacea, and helps the twins restore her golden armour from when the ancient Heroes rode her. The Timekeeper first makes the flute stronger, like how they remembered it, and the sisters play the great and sacred song of awakening handed down from generations before. The party is then teleported onto Cetacea's back.
