[[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|The Hero]] can visit Aliahan through the [[Echo Chamber]]. He is taken to a time just before the marriage of Ortega and his fiance, and sees that several villagers have gathered in the woman's house to prevent the union. As it turns out, this is the work of a monster that was trying to prevent a legendary hero from being born and the party makes quick work of the nuisance. Additionally, the Luminary can get a [[Personality]]-altering book from Ortega's father, which can be used to alter [[Jessica Albert]]'s mind at [[Chateau Felix]]. | |||
