Ramia herself does not appear in the title, but her likeness is shown in the form of [[Erdrick's Fire]], the [[souped-up skills|souped up version of Kasizz]]. | |||

Ramia appears in the new ending to save the four [[Scions of Erdrick]] from falling into an abyss once they are dragged into a blood red portal and taken to a different dimension after defeating [[Malroth]] in the game's true ending. The voice of [[Rubiss]] speaks to the four and explains that their refusal to give in to despair even in the most dire circumstances had pierced the darkness with a light bright enough to lead the Everbird to them. Ramia then restores the group to full power and carries them on her back while they confront [[Malwrath]], shielding herself in a cloak of light to contrast the wicked one's [[Shroud of Shadows|shroud of shadows]]. | |||
The morning after the Scions celebrate their victory in Castle [[Midenhall]], Ramia flies over the kingdom and escorts the four children high into the sky. There they see a portal floating above, the same one their ancestor descended through to [[Alefgard]] so long ago. She takes them across the world Erdrick fought to save, passing [[Rimland]] before touching down in [[Aliahan]] to see the home of their forebearer. | |||
Sharp-eyed players will notice a certain purple light following Ramia as she flies in the finale, like a fledgling following it's mother. This orb is the soul of Ramia's [[Godbird's soulstone|unborn child]] that was slain in {{Dragon Quest VIII}}, signifying that the events of ''Dragon Quest II HD'' take place after Ramia's adventure that title. | |||

Ramia's role remains unchanged in the game save for being necessary to first access the [[Temple of Trials]] hanging high in the heavens above, where she will then perch even if the player casts [[Zoom]] hence forth. During the game's expanded ending sequence she is shown resting in Rimland with her twin attendants before taking flight to the [[Castle of the Dragon Queen]], possibly detecting that an [[Calasmos|ancient evil]] has stirred. | |||
