At the time of the Luminary's 16th birthday, Chalky has already passed away. When it comes time for the young man to start his journey after completing his coming-of-age ceremony at the top of [[Cobblestone Tor]], Amber gives Chalky's former traveling clothes to the Luminary.

When the Luminary later returns to Cobblestone, an Yggdrasil root transports him ten years into the past. In this past version of the village, he finds Chalky, who is the only villager to recognize who he must be. After hearing his grandson's tale of what has been happening, Chalky tells the Luminary to dig in front of the three-sided rock at Cobblestone Falls when he returns to the present time. He gives his grandson some final words of wisdom: "Don't waste your time bearing grudges--live life with love in your heart." Some of the Luminary's party members mull over this advice in later Party Talk.
Upon returning to the present, the Luminary and his companion, [[Erik]], follow Chalky's instructions at Cobblestone Falls and find a box containing two letters. One of these letters is from the Luminary's birth mother, [[Queen Eleanor]], while the other is from Chalky himself. In this second letter, Chalky advises the Luminary to use a magical stone called the Keystone (which is also in the box) to open the [[Door of Departure]] and travel through the world to learn of his destiny. When the Luminary and Erik use the Keystone, the Door of Departure transports them to the Hotto Steppe, where they meet the sister spellcasters [[Veronica (Dragon Quest XI)|Veronica]] and [[Serena (Dragon Quest XI)|Serena]]. This concludes Chalky's role in the main plot.
Additionally, if the Luminary marries [[Gemma]] or chooses any party member as a life partner in the endgame, Chalky (with a halo over his head) appears in the commemorative picture.
