Star-crossed Lovers

Star-crossed Lovers is a quest in Legend of Mana.

Premise
As the protagonist returns back to Gato Grottoes to inquire Matilda about the Ulkan Mines incident, He sees that Daena has come to see the abbess to go bring her to the Mindas Ruins. Daena adds that she can go to the land of Faeries from there and prolong her life, since time flows differently here. The priestess asks if she's seen Irwin, to which the cat warrior acquiesses. Daena exhorts Matilda to go see Irwin, since he's the only one who can save her and that she's the only who can stop him. As she utters these words, Escad erupts into the scene shouting that the demon has poisoned Daena's mind. He claims that Irwin should die by his hands and that her job is finished. Matilda tries to pacify the situation, but Escad strikes Daena with his sword, causing the cat warrior to have an open wound. The Liotte Knight comments that her injury is minor and encourage her to think this through. The feline fighter retorts that he's the demon as he lied about meeting a Wisdom. This ruckus causes Matilda to start casting a spell, making Daena worry about her frail condition. Both the abbess and the cat warrior warp away, leaving a disgruntled Escad to search for them.

The scene transits to the Tower of Winds, where an exhausted Matilda is momentarily visited by a bypassing Irwin. The priestess gets back up and follows him to the top of the structure. The abbess is glad to see him alive to which the demon quips about her never changing. The old matriarch replies by saying that he's a terrible liar since the last ten years have turned her into a wrinkly grandma. She is quite surprised to see on the other hand that demons age up too. Irwin reveals that the land of Faeries can dispense immense powers to the onlooker, as one can for its own appearance just by imagining it. Matilda asks if it why he wants to see her here, to which the demon agrees. While Matilda is doubtful what Faeries will accept her as she is human, Irwin assures her that they will bow to his orders just like she accepts the rules of heartless humans without question. The abbess confides in the Demon that the only choice she has is to be free. Meanwhile, the protagonist is teleported inside the ruins by inwielding Faeries as to prevent him/her to disrupt the reunion. After escaping the structure, the main character finds Niccolo in the wilderness and accepts his offer to send him near the Tower or Winds. At its base, Escad and Daena battle each other and the main character has the option to join hands with one. After defeating either one, the protagonist rushes to the top of the tower to see Matilda telling the duo that she's not going to the Land of Faeries. She declares that seeing Irwin was enought to feel her youth return to her, and that she and Irwin do not intrude on each other's freedom, so should he destroy this world, she would accept his decision. She believes that she should decide what brings her happiness and trust herself, just as everyone should. The fate of the world in the Mana Goddess's hands.
