Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation: Difference between revisions

On his way to [[Somnia (Upper World)|Somnia Castle]], where information on Murdaw can be found, the Hero stumbles into a strange portal which brings him to another unfamiliar town. However, no one can see or hear him. After finding a similar portal, the Hero reaches Somnia and meets Captain Blade, the leader of Somnia's army, and Carver, who appears not to remember the Hero. To defeat Murdaw they will need the Mirror of Ra, and the captain sends them fourth to find the missing relic. The Hero and Carver discover another portal along their journey, which brings them to Port Haven where they can neither be heard nor seen. Milly, who does see them, reunites with the two and helps them become visible with the aid of [[List of characters in Dragon Quest VI#Major Characters|Madame Luca]].  

The party discovers a Somnia Castle in the “Phantom World” and learns that the prince is missing and that the Hero looks like him. They also meet Captain Rusty, who bears a striking resemblance to Blade. Gaining entrance to the Moon Mirror Tower, the party meets [[Ashlynn]], a woman who was invisible in the “Phantom World” as well and together they find the Mirror of Ra.  

The four of them travel to Murdaw's [[Underkeep|castle]] in the original world. After defeating Murdaw, the Hero uses the Mirror and Murdaw then turns into the king of Somnia, confused and unaware of what happened. The king reveals that the "original" world is in fact the Dream World and the Phantom World is the Real World. Upon traveling back to the Real World, the King of Somnia thanks the party for defeating Murdaw in his dreams, but that the real Murdaw lives and that the party must travel to [[Ghent]] to retrieve a boat to get to [[Murdaw's Keep|Murdaw's lair]]. In Ghent, [[Nevan]] the devout joins the party and allows them to use the Ghent Clan's sacred ship. Upon exploring the island, Carver discovers a statue bearing his exact likeness and realizes that Murdaw's actions in the opening scene separated his, Milly's, and the Hero's souls from their bodies, trapping them in the Dream World. During the fight with the real Murdaw, the Hero gets sent back to Weaver's Peak like before; however with the Mirror of Ra the Hero warps back into the battle and defeats Murdaw.

After the victory celebration back at the castle, the Queen of Somnia tells the Hero that he is the Prince of Somnia and that his current existence is incomplete--Murdaw's curse still lingers, and his dream-self has not returned to his body. Told to go forth and find himself, the party's journey leads them to Arkbolt, where a [[Lizzie|terrible monster]] is blocking a nearby [[Wayfarer's Pass|tunnel]] to the rest of the continent. The reward for defeating the monster is the famed [[Sunderbolt blade|Sunderbolt sword]], but before the party can confront the beast a warrior by the name of [[Terry]] slays her, winning the sword.  

After traveling both worlds, the party learns that Murdaw was not the only evil in the world, having confronted several other powerful monsters that all seem to be connected. [[File:DQVI DS Ashlynn.png|thumb|100px|right|The sorceress [[Ashlynn]].]]

As the journey goes on, the party saves several towns and kingdoms from supernatural onslaughts and monstrous sieges, hearing legends of a forgotten city of magic known as [[Sorceria]]. Forebodingly, they also hear tales of a dreaded Arch-fiend who controlled Murdaw and the other powerful ringleaders the common monsters obeyed. After slaying a [[Gracos|demonic fish]] at the depths of the ocean, the ancient city of Sorceria is restored in the Dream World.  

In Sorceria, the party learns that this is Ashlynn's home. The elders tell Ashlynn that the Demon Lord is watching her and give her the powerful spell [[Magic Burst]] to fight him. The party also learns that the only way to get to the Demon Lord is through Zenith Tower, but to activate the tower, they need to collect the sword, armour, shield, and helmet of legend. While doing so, the Hero meets his double in Real Weaver's Peak, who gets spooked, and speaks 'Y-You. Y-You're m-m-me!', and says that he must prove himself to be faithful to his family if he is to join powers. Returning to Real Somnia, the King and Queen tell the Hero that he is indeed the prince. When he fused with his clone, the Hero gained his memory back, much like Milly and Carver had done.

The party reaches Cloud Castle and meets [[Dhuran]], who claims to have taken over the castle. He summons Terry to fight the party and then fights the party himself. Dhuran then reveals that all the enemies the party has faced were just pawns of Mortamor, the Demon Emperor. Milly reveals that Terry is her brother and Terry decides to join the party and fight against Mortamor.

Once Cloud Castle is back to normal, the party speaks to [[Zenithia|King Zenith]] who informs them of Mortamor's doings and how to reach the Dark World. Mortamor plans on merging both worlds. The party’s horse fuses with Pegasus, allowing the party to fly to the Dark World. With the help of two brothers, Isaac and Benjamin, the party enters Mortamor's Castle. After solving many puzzles, they come face to face with Mortamor and defeat him. Isaac reveals that the Dark World is falling apart and Pegasus helps them escape.
