Changes: "Your Sanctuary"

Revision as of 20:05, 24 June 2010

"Your Sanctuary" are several zones in the 1995 video game EarthBound. These zones are what link the game's protagonist, Ness, between himself and his childhood memories. When Ness enters any "Your Sanctuary" zone, he feels a deeper connection to his younger self, allowing him to record a melody he hears in his memories to the Sound stone given to him at the beginning of his adventure by the alien extra-terrestrial Buzz Buzz. To truly understand himself and enter his mind, Ness must record all eight of these melodies to the Sound stone to gain access to "Your World," Magicant. Each zone is guarded by a Sanctuary Guardian, a powerful enemy who has assumed "ownership" of the location, each one daring Ness and friends to take the zone from them. Also known is that "Your Sanctuary" locations also heal Ness and friends.

It can also be assumed that the "Your Sanctuary" naturally repel those under the influence of Gigyas and his minions, as the Happy Happy-ist while under the Mani Mani Statue's control regard Lilliput Steps as an "anti-blue" place and dread entering it.
