Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed KingEdit

Alistair was a kind and gentle young man who trained as a warrior to protect his village. He inherited his ancestor Alexander's status as the Sage associated with the Blue Orb, but did not possess any talent for magic, quite unlike his sorceress sister.

One day, Alistair found the door to the Tower of Alexandria open and went in to investigate. At the top of the tower, in front of the statue of Alexandra, he encountered Dhoulmagus. Unable to draw his sword, Alistair was run through by the jester's staff. A bit of his soul was able to cling on within the statue, however, and when Jessica climbed the tower herself looking for revenge, Alistair was able to show the party the moment of his death and pass on his final wishes to his sister when she looked into the statue's eyes. With his message delivered, he tells his sister to follow her heart even if it goes against Rosalind's wishes. King Trode adds Alistair's murder to the long list of Dhoulmagus's transgressions, and Jessica falls to the statue's feet and weeps.
