Mother: The Original Story



Mother: The Original Story (Japanese: to be added) is a novel released exclusively in Japan which is loosely based on the plot of EarthBound Beginnings. It was written by Saori Kumi and notably follows Ana's point of view, rather than Ninten's, covering the plot of the game from Snowman up until its ending. Though it largely follows the plot of the game, it takes a few other liberties such as adding characters, renaming characters, or focusing on portions of the game in greater detail.
