Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age[edit]
Ages before the events of the game, the ice witch Krystalinda was trapped in a magic book for her crimes and stripped of her powers, which were sealed away inside Jörmun. Sometime before the first act of the game, Jasper discovers the book contaning Krystalinda and bargains with her to set a trap for the Hero and his allies. After being freed from the book, Krystalinda uses what remains of her power to freeze the people of Sniflheim; seal Queen Frysabel in the book; and impersonate her to trick the party into defeating Jörmun.
The party encounters Hendrik fighting Jörmun in the depths of the Hekswood. Assuming the Hero is an ally of Hendrik, Jörmun attacks the Hero's party but is slain. Jörmun's death breaks the seal on Krystalinda's magic before the party confronts her at Sniflheim.
During the third act of the game, Jörmun is revived by the resurrection of the Dark One and begins rampaging through the north under his influence. While rebuilding Cobblestone, the Hero searches for Jörmun with the intention of making it the town's mascot. The Hero weakens Jörmun in battle and purifies it with a Zap spell, causing it to be reborn as Holy Jörmun. Refreshed, Holy Jörmun comes to reside in Cobblestone as a watchful guardian.
