[[Lucas]] and his friends arrive at [[Tazmily Village]], only to find that the town has been mostly abandoned while they were away. The townspeople had started moving to [[New Pork City]], and left a small group of villagers behind to keep watch on the town. Lucas runs into [[Alec]], and asks him where [[Ionia]]'s house might be. He says to go west of his old cottage in the [[Mt. Oriander|mountains]], and past [[Argilla Pass]]. Alec suggests to take a map along with him, and ask [[Mapson]] to mark Argilla Pass for him. Lucas does so and heads north, going through [[Sunshine Forest]] and into the mountains. Along the way, [[Kumatora]] recognizes the area from her childhood, and says to take the west path in the mountains and keep going north. They reach [[Argilla Pass]], however, everyone ends up tripping and drops the jar of pickles Mixolydia gave them. The four of them then split up to find the pickles, and Boney manages to find it behind a large rock, and gives it to [[Lucas]] for safekeeping. Further down the path, there is a fork in the road, with a [[hot spring]] to the west and an unnamed cave to the east. The cave eventually leads to [[Ionia]]'s house, and the location of the sixth Needle, [[Chupichupyoi Temple]]. | |||
Outside of Ionia's house, a [[Mr. Saturn]] wearing a red kerchief walks up to [[Lucas]], and gives him back his newly-polished [[Courage Badge]]. As it turns out, the Courage Badge was a very rusted and old [[Franklin Badge]], and is now fully functional. Everyone then enters Ionia's house, and briefly chat with him. He comments on everyone's strength, and gleefully accepts the jar of pickles. Ionia also explains that in order to enter the temple, one must pour the [[Waters of Time]] on the vines blocking the temple entrance. The vines are frozen in time, and only the Waters of Time can resurrect them. However, when Lucas and his party go up to the temple, the [[Masked Man]] and several [[Pigmask Major]]s are already there. They are attempting to break into the temple by having a [[Clayman]] ram into it, and eventually the Masked Man throws a bomb at the entrance. Nothing is working, and one of the Pigmasks notices Lucas behind him. Two of the Pigmask Majors attack him, along with a [[Pigmask Captain]]. When Lucas and his party defeat the three Pigmasks, the Masked Man attacks him as well, firing off a bolt of lightning. However, his Franklin Badge deflects the lightning back at him, and the Masked Man resorts to different attacking measures to take down Lucas. Lucas manages to defeat the Masked Man, and the Masked Man stops moving momentarily, short-circuiting slightly. He manages to get back up and flies off on his jetpack, allowing Lucas to proceed and pull the sixth Needle. Lucas then pours the Waters of Time on the vines, and the vines bloom and die in a time-lapse-like fashion. | |||
Inside of [[Chupichupyoi Temple]], the Needle stands upon a pedestal, and Ionia follows them into the temple. He reflects on the powers of the [[Seven Needles]], and urges Lucas to keep going and be the one to pull the rest of the needles and wake the [[Dark Dragon]]. He asks [[Duster]], [[Kumatora]] and [[Boney]] to support him on the rest of his journey, and see everything to the end. Ionia also teaches Kumatora [[PK Starstorm]], a dangerous and secret [[PSI]] attack, for her to use on assisting Lucas on his quest. Lucas then goes up to the Needle, pulling it from the pedestal, and learns [[PK Love]] Ω. Ionia begins to fade away, and suddenly realizes that [[Locria]] is nearing the seventh and final Needle, located in a "lively, dirty place". He laments about how unclear the message is, and how he has to disappear now and not see things to the end. Ionia then fully disappears, leaving behind his [[memento]], and [[Kumatora]] looks down and sighs, with her closest guardian now gone. Suddenly, loud music starts playing outside, and a mysterious limousine pulls up outside of the temple. The chauffeur walks out and states to Lucas that he has been invited to move to [[New Pork City]], and that they must come along on the limousine ride. | |||
