It is typically used to reveal a character's true form and advances the story. | |||

In the remake of | In the remake of {{Dragon Quest V}}, a book in [[Heaven's Above Abbey]] called 'The Maiden of [[Abovitall Tower]]' reads, "There was once a girl who climbed a tower where the [[Goddess]] was said to live, because she wanted to find out if the [[Goddess]] really existed. The [[Goddess]] put many obstacles in the young girl's path, but she courageously persevered until she reached the top of the tower. There, legend has it that the [[Goddess]] rewarded her by bestowing on her a mysterious mirror with the power to reflect the truth".<br> | ||

The girl must have brought it back to [[Abovitall Tower]] for some reason because later in the game, the {{Hero 5}} goes to Abovitall Tower and goes through probably the same annoying puzzles she did to get it. | ||

The mirror is hidden in a swamp east of [[Moonbrooke]], and its location is hinted by the ghost of the king of [[Moonbrooke]]. It can be found by searching the swamp tile where 4 bridges are visible on the screen. It is one of only 3 items to be found by searching on the world map, alongside the [[yggdrasil leaf|yggdrasil leaves]] and the [[Sunken Treasure|sunken treasure]]. | |||

Using the mirror in front of the dog in [[Moonahan]] breaks the [[Curses|curse]] on her and she then joins the {{Party 2}}. The mirror itself cracks afterwards and is no longer in the inventory, saving vital space in the [[Famicom]] version of the game. | ||
Originally the mirror was meant to be found on the top floor of the [[Pillar of Winds]], but playtesters found the tower to be too difficult to climb with just two Luminaries during the beta stage of the game's development and the key item was moved to the swamps as a result. | |||

The mirror is simply randomly dropped by [[Float-o-copier]]s and has no relevance to the plot as with the previous two games. Indeed, players can finish the game without ever obtaining it, let alone using it. In this game, it can be used to return [[float-o-copier]]s to their true forms after they [[Morph]] into a {{Party 4}} member, though this is not required to defeat them (especially as the {{Zenithian sword}} can also undo [[Morph]] when used as an item in battle). | |||
It is also purchasable at the [[Pioneer Town]]'s final form's [[casino]] for 10,000 [[token]]s ([[Endor]] casino for only 2,500 [[token]]s in the {{NES}} version). Despite it lacking significance and being obtainable often, it can't be sold. | |||

The mirror is found in [[Abovitall Tower]] to the south of the aboreas teleportal, which is itself south of [[Heaven's Above Abbey]]. The mirror is used to reveal the true form of the [[Faux dowager]]. Later, it can be used to force [[admirer]]s to revert back to their normal forms. | |||
