Purple Orb

The Purple Orb is a key item in Dragon Quest III. It is one of the Six Orbs required to hatch Ramia. It is held by Himiko in the village of Zipangu.

Defeating the Orochi

Himiko is really the Orochi in disguise. By entering the Cave Northeast of Zipangu and fighting the Orochio, the heroes cause it to run away wounded into a nearby travel gate. Taking the travel gate, the heroes find themselves in Himiko's chamber in Zipangu. After fighting the Orochi a second time in the chamber, he leaves behind the purple orb.
