==Past==
'''Ballymolloy''' (formerly '''Rexwood''') is a town located on an island north-north-west of [[Estard]] Island in {{DQ7}}. It is the first island that the {{Party 7}} visits [[Time travel|in the past]].
When the [[Hero (Dragon Quest VII)|Hero]], [[Kiefer]], and [[Maribel]] enters the portal, they landed in a hill not too far from Rexwood. While exploring the hill, they meet a lady named [[Matilda]] in front of a grave.


Due to the absence of flowers in the area, she used weeds to offer to the dead, but Maribel insisted of using flower seeds that she picked when she was in [[Estard]]. Matilda accepted them, and in gratitude, escorts them to the village. Upon reaching the village, Matilda left them without even saying goodbye.
==Story==
===Past===
When the {{Hero 7}}, [[Kiefer]], and [[Maribel Mayde]] enter the [[Time travel|portal]], they land in the woods not too far from Ballymolloy. Wondering how they got from the [[Shrine of Mysteries]] to this place, {{Maribel}} leaves the two guys to find her way back to [[Pilchard Bay]]. She then screams in horror. When the {{Hero 7}} and [[Kiefer]] go to find out what had happened to her, they find out that she is being attacked by [[Slime]]s. The three join forces and defeat the {{MFamilies}}s. {{Maribel}} is horrified that there are {{MFamilies}}s lurking about, while [[Kiefer]] is ecstatic he fought them, believing that {{MFamilies}}s only existed in fairy tales. While exploring the hill, they meet a female [[warrior]] named [[Maeve]] standing in front of a grave.


In the village, they saw no girls in the area, because all of them are captured by monsters. They meet a boy named Patrick who is taking care of his father, [[Hank]], who is currently injured. The villagers aren't able to go to the Colorstone Mine to get the medicine that would cure him due to that the mine is overflowing with monsters, but they eventually decided to help Patrick by getting the medicine themselves.
Due to the absence of flowers in the area, she used weeds to offer to the dead. But {{Maribel}} insists that she use flower seeds that she picked when she was in [[Estard]]. Matilda accepts them and, after planting the seeds on the graves, escorts them to the village. Upon reaching the village, [[Maeve]] leaves them without even saying goodbye.


Upon reaching the mine, they meet Matilda again inside. They explained the situation to her about Hank, Patrick's father, although she was unwilling to help.
In the village, they see no women in the area, because all of them have been captured by {{MFamilies}}s. They meet a boy named Patrick who is taking care of his father, [[Hanlon]], who is injured. The villagers aren't able to go to the [[Rainbow Mines]] to get the medicine that would cure him, due to the fact that the mine is overflowing with {{MFamilies}}s. Patrick asks the {{Party 7}} if they have seen [[Maeve]], to which the {{Party 7}} replies in the affirmative. He tells them about how [[Maeve]] saved his father from the {{MFamilies}}s. He asks if they run into [[Maeve]], they should ask her if she can get a green gem.


Deep in the mine, they eventually saw a Green Colorstone, a colorstone able to heal Hank's injuries. Matilda, who shows up again, helps the party get a piece of the colorstone, and at the same time, gives them a wooden doll. She says that it is a memento of her brother, but she doesn't need it anymore.
Upon reaching the mine, they meet [[Maeve]] again inside. They explain the situation to her about [[Hanlon]], Patrick's father. However, she is unwilling to help. So the {{Party 7}} takes it upon themselves to find the gem themselves.


Upon curing Hank, he joins the party for the trip to Monster Tower, a tower near the village in which is rumored to be the reason why the girls of the village had gone missing. At the peak of the tower, they discover that Matilda's true form is a monster, that the girls will never return as long as she lives and that she is willing to die in exchange for the peace of Rexwood. They eventually defeat her.

Before going to the portal back to Estard Island, they see Patrick around the grave where the flower seeds Matilda planted grew. Patrick did not know that Matilda, the person who escorted Hank back to the village the time he was injured, is now dead. They just decided to not tell him, but they do give him Matilda's wooden doll.
The {{Party 7}} return to Ballymolloy and give the green gem fragment to Patrick who applies it to his [[Hanlon|father]]'s wounds. Patrick thanks the {{Party 7}} for saving his [[Hanlon|father]] and in gratitude, he has the [[inn]]keeper put them up for the night for free. Before going to sleep, {{Maribel}} asks the {{Hero 7}} whether or not they will ever see [[Pilchard Bay]] again. She then decides not to worry about it and goes to sleep.


==Present==
Upon curing [[Hanlon]], he joins the {{Party 7}} for the trip to [[The Tower]] near the village in which is rumored to be the reason why the girls of the village had gone missing. It is guarded by a [[Golem]], who seems particularly interested in [[Hanlon]]. After defeating the [[Golem]], the {{Party 7}} gains access to [[The Tower]]. At the peak of [[The Tower]], they fight the [[Crabble-rouser]], who is minding [[The Tower]] while their [[Maeve|boss]] is away. Upon defeating it, the [[Maeve|boss]] of [[The Tower]] appears. It is [[Maeve]]. The [[Crabble-rouser]] asks her to kill the people who entered [[The Tower]], but she kills it instead. [[Maeve]] tells the {{Party 7}} that what the [[Crabble-rouser|monster]] said was true. They discover that [[Maeve]]'s true form is a {{MFamilies}}, that the girls will never return as long as she lives and that she is willing to die in exchange for the peace of Ballymolloy. They eventually defeat her. As [[Hanlon]] delivers the final blow, [[Maeve]] tells the {{Party 7}} to return to the place where they first met.
When the party first arrives in Rexwood after unsealing it, the villagers remark on the bravery of the party on their voyage. When the party tries to tell them that the village just appeared, they respond that the village was always here. Other than that, there is not much to do here.
 
When the {{Party 7}} steps outside [[The Tower]], the sun shines on them. [[Hanlon]] wonders if the women have really returned as [[Maeve]] said they would so the {{Party 7}} heads back to Ballymolloy. There, they discover that [[Maeve]] told the truth. The women have returned. [[Hanlon]] returns to his son and tells him that he has defeated the {{MFamilies}}s. When Patrick asks if they saw [[Maeve]], [[Hanlon]] tells them that they did. Satisfied with that answer, Patrick leaves the area. [[Hanlon]] tells the {{Party 7}} to return to the place where they first saw [[Maeve]] to see if there is a way to return home like she said. However, if it turns out that there isn't, he tells them to return and he would protect them.
 
After returning to the hill, they see Patrick around the grave where [[Maeve]] planted flower seeds. Much to everyone's surprise, the flowers are growing. The {{Party 7}} give Patrick [[Maeve]]'s wooden doll, not telling him that [[Maeve]] is actually dead. They return to the place where they landed in the forest and find a [[teleportal]], which allows them to [[Time travel|return]] to [[Estard]].
