Final dungeon (term)

From the Wiki of Mana, the Mana encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to search

Final dungeons are locations where the final battles in the Mana series take place, generally in long, elaborate dungeons, filled with powerful enemies. They are usually the last place visited during the game, and often take place in or near the Sanctuary of Mana. The game's final boss awaits at the end of the dungeon.

Sumo meeting with the Motherly Figure
Main article: Mana Shrine (Adventures of Mana)

The Mana Shrine sits atop the Mana Temple and is the last dungeon visited by Sumo before confronting Julius. There, he meets with Fuji's mother who transforms his Rusty Sword into Excalibur, giving the young knight enough strength to battle the evil mage and free the captive maiden. As the Mana Tree withers from the actions of the dying magician, Fuji follows her mother's footsteps by turning into the next Mana Goddess and appoints Sumo as her Gemma Knight.

Secret of Mana[edit]

The Mana Beast battling with the Mana Fortress
Main article: Mana Fortress

Randi, Primm, & Popoi ride Flammie atop the revived flying fortress of yore and rush inside it to stop Thanatos from using up all the world's Mana and destroy the world. There, the skeletal sorcerer tries to hijack Dyluck's body, but the soldier resists and destroy himself before he can do so, forcing Thanatos to show his hideous true appearance to the party. After his defeat, the Mana Beast is summoned to battle the fortress and the trio has no other choice but to slay the legendary beast before it ends up ripping the land asunder. With the beast killed, the Mana of the world is no more, making Popoi the sprite vanish from existence.

Trials of Mana[edit]

The destroyed Sanctuary of Mana
Main article: Sanctuary of Mana (Trials of Mana)

Note: While the final battle takes place within the Sanctuary of Mana, the previous dungeon tied to the main character could be considered more fitting of being a final dungeon.

The party arrive to late to the ruined Sanctuary as the main villain destroyed the Mana Tree along with the goddess, claiming the beginning of a new dark era of world domination. They offer the adventurers to ally with their devilish scheme, then destroy them once they decline. With her remedial energy, Faerie revive them, and the last battle ensues. The villain is ultimately destroyed, with Faerie becomming the new sapling destined to become the next holy tree.

Legend of Mana[edit]

The Tree of Mana
Main article: Tree of Mana (land)

The hero/heroine obtains the Sword of Mana artifact and recreate the Tree of Mana onto Fa'Diel. The goddesss became corrupted and the tree's core rotted long ago because of the swarm of monsters coveting its power. As the main character climbs the humongous tree, they face the dark side of the Mana Goddess who asks them to slay her. The Mana Goddess then becomes a Sproutling and plants herself in the Mana Tree's rotten trunk and then calls upon the other Sproutlings to join together to restore the Mana Tree to its former glory.

Sword of Mana[edit]

Main article: Mana Temple (Sword of Mana)

Deep inside the temple, the hero & heroine confront Julius's Shadow, who questions them of the righteousness of their deeds, asking them if they were doing the right thing by wanting to stop his master; asking them if they were fighting for the right people. The shadow summons the heroes' friends and forces them to confess their sins. The wielder of the Mana Sword prevails with the aid of their many friends' toughts and prayers. The knight and maiden then confront Julius at the foot of the Mana Tree who was drained of its power, making the sorcerer allmighty. They eventually defeat the wizard, and the heroine transforms into the next Mana goddess.

Children of Mana[edit]

Main article: Cosmic Rift

After the Mana Lord leaps into the pool of Mana deep within the Path of Life, a rift appears above Illusia Isle with the newly born Scion of Mana growing inside of it, threatening to flood the world with Mana. The protagonist ventures deep within the rift to slay the sprout, but is unable to do so due to the Mana Sword being covered in black vine. Meanwhile, Tess's prayers echoes from afar, turning the holy blade back to its original state, allowing the main character to defeat the Scion of Mana. This makes the Mana Tower bursting with light, making it disappear in the end.
