During the ending cinematic, the protagonist returns to the hidden village and gazes forlornly upon the ruined town. When a heavenly light descends from above, the charred village is restored and Eliza is brought back to life. The two join in a silent embrace before they are greeted by the rest of The Chosen Ones.

==Cameo==
The [[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|Luminary]] finds Eliza in a sticky situation when visiting the Hidden Valley--she's gotten herself trapped in the form of a slime, and the villagers have taken none too kindly to this sudden visitor. A supreme sage's staff is required to set her shape-shifting straight. This event takes place some time before the events of ''IV'', as the girl is still trying to get the hang of Morph.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
While it is not outright stated that Eliza is an [[Elves and Faeries|elf]], this is implied through the use of the elf sprite in the NES version and her pointed ears in the remakes. However, her official art shows her as a normal human girl, and none of the villagers regard her any differently. In the [[Dragon Quest CD Theater]], she has ruby tears, which is a special elf trait that [[Rose]] is hunted for in the game.
