Afterwards, it was my objective to make a beautiful bouquet of flowers as a peace offering to the Univir. The first step in making this happen required me to reveal my half-monster identity to the humans and my half-human identity to the monsters. A “unity festival” was in order, and the members of both societies would have to talk things through, make peace, and live happily as one community. My next goal was made clear after watching a few cutscenes and reading some text.
We made up, and we headed back to Sharance where there was more work to be done. I was surprised to discover this, but it was pretty cool learning that the Sharance girl that I chose to court was also half-monster. That’s right, Raven was part human, part majestic bird (the Legendary Pokemon Ho-Oh comes to mind). Raven then confided her deep secret as well: She too was half-monster. I disguised myself as a wooly that she had been following throughout the game and I got close to her, revealing my true identity shortly after. Immediately after clearing the Vale River, I attempted to fix things with Raven. After this short cinematic, I guided the protagonist back to Sharance. (Fun fact: the Vale River boss looks a lot like the first incarnation of Andross from Star Fox.) After defeating the boss, Micah remembered another moment from his past. While I did take a decent amount of damage and genuinely feared meeting with failure every so often during the bout, I was able to defeat the cold villain on my first try. I got to the icy boss of the Vale River, and I took him on courageously. Rush had helped me plenty before, and now it was time to let him live happily on my farm. I pondered for a moment whether or not I should have focused my monster training on a more capable beast, but I decided to let it go. It turns out this darn wooly wasn’t nearly as useful as a Pokemon the moment we encountered some tough enemies, the little fleece ball merely sat there and watched as I battled it out alone. I took Rush along because I figured I could use the help. The Icy Vale Riverīefore I set out to do anything else within the confines of Sharance, I headed for the Vale River to defeat the fourth boss. Where did I go from here? Would I lead my character closer to his goal of regaining his lost memories? Would I continue to chase the elusive Raven and unravel the mystery of her character? Join me as I continue my playthrough of the latest Rune Factory game on the Nintendo DS. Here we are shortly after my character was dumped by Raven, and it seems more mystery continues to plague the world of Rune Factory 3.
I had cleared three of the game’s dungeons, and my wallet was fairly bulked up with tremendous amounts of riches. When last you joined me in my adventures through Sharance, I found myself making a best friend out of my Pokemon-like pet monster Rush and losing a potential bride in the red-haired Raven.
