Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen[edit]

Sisters Maya and Meena Mahabala worked in the town as a dancer and fortuneteller respectively, in the hopes of learning the whereabouts of Balzack, the man who killed their father Mahabala. Eventually they decide to travel the continent to find him.

With Maya gone and the other dancers unable to live up to her performance, the hall owner hired Tom Foolery and replaced dancing with a comedy routine. Tom Foolery leaves when the Hero seeks his assistance in gaining the Zenithian helm from the King of Canalot.
