Storyline

6-1 Story | The Dollhouse

The protagonist is seen lying in an endless void just like the beginning of their adventure, with the Mana Goddess' voice claiming she's gonna bring the world and her sister back. Then, two young girls are heard playing with dolls. The main character is then transported inside a dollhouse, with the two twin children playing together. The twins cannot seem to agree on the story, on trying to make the male hero dumb and the other trying to stick with him being brave. Dema, the older sister, wants her younger sister Nona stick to the rules while the younger seems to be more liberal with her creativity. This makes Nona frustrated with her sibling, and leaves the premise. Dema then turns to the protagonist, claiming she can see them, asking them if they could look for her younger sister. Dema adds that she feels this isn't the first time she have asked for their help.

6-11 Story | Finding Her Voice

The harvest finally meets with Nona, saying she comes here whenever she wants to be alone and think. She tells the story of the Mana clan: whenever the Mana Tree dies, and the world falls into peril, a girl from their clan must become the next Mana Tree. Dema was chosen to be the next Mana Goddess, but they don't know when that day would come. She wanted to stand up to her back when they were arguing in the dollhouse. Dema always tells Nona that she won't be lonely whe she becomes that goddess, as her twin will still be alive. Nona is somehow doubtful of that since the other half will always be at her side. The older sister seems to carry all that responsibility by herself to protect her younger sister, making her younger sibling feeling lonely. Nona feels glad to be able to open up to a stranger so quickly. A young boy of the Mana clan called Diospyros reaches them, claiming he's been searching for them ever since he heard she ran away. The boy says that her older sister is worried about her, to which Nona feels sorry about that. She tells Diospyros that he's like the hero Dema and Nona created in their story.

She vanishes along with the main character, with the latter being sent back in front of the Mana Sanctuary with their twin to their side. The harvester asks them who they are, leaving the doppelganger perplex, saying they are acting weird today. The twin then direct their attention to a new fruit attached to the sacred tree's branch.
