Everstone

The **Everstones** (神星魔石 *Ebāsutōn*) are six giant Star Magic Gems that appeared in Wistaria after the activation of Iris' Seventh Flare. They not only contain the Seventh Flare's power, but also Iris' memories and conciousness.

## Description

The Everstones are six giant and powerful Star Magic Gems.

They were created 70 years ago when Iris died on Oruha Island. Her death released the energy of the Seventh Flare weapon in her body, causing a huge explosion that forever changed the island.

This energy also released six colorful lights that scattered across the continent and would eventually become today's Everstones. Each of the Everstones contains pieces of Iris' conciousness & memories, as well as fragments of Seventh Flare's power. Due to this immense power, each country keeps the location of their Everstone a secret.

Many researches have tried to extract the Everstones' powers, but none were successful for many years. However, the mysterious white Star Magic Gems may be the key to the Everstones' secret, as Meruru is able to use hers to locate them. Furthermore, she is able to use this Star Magic Gem to resonate with the Everstones and regain piecesof her lost memories.

The Moongarde Empire is invading other countries to find the Everstones and absorb their power using the same white Star Magic Gems as Meruru.

## Estrea's Everstone

Estrea's Everstone is located in the Nog Tribe's forest. The kingdom entrusted the tribe with the responsibility of keeping the Everstone a secret. The Nog Tribe's chief is very strict about this, and even sees the Everstone's location as more important than the lives of his tribe's children.

Shion was in charge of locating Estrea's Everstone to absorb its power. He posed as the adventurer Sanku and befriended Oliver, Azel & the others to gain their trust.

After Oliver leads them to the Everstone's cave and unlocks the seal, Shion backstabs the group, absorbs the Everstone's power and leaves.

The light of the Everstone also entered Meruru's Star Magic Gem, after which she heard a voice. The voice repeated "Meruru, Meruru..." , and even if she doesn't know who the voice belongs to, she is sure that it had to be a family member.

## Zahardia's Everstone

Zahardia's Everstone is located in a small temple in the main city. Inside the temple is a way that leads to a small cave where the Everstone is being kept.

Doga was in charge of locating Zahardia's Everstone to absorb its power. By the time Azel and the others arrived, Doga had already done his job but he stayed to conduct experiments and gather data for Ouroboria.

The group tried to fight Doga, but they weren't able to beat him so he escaped.

Meruru was also able to resonate with the Everstone. This time she saw a vivid memory of her family and a male voice saying how beautiful Oruha Island is, and that it was the right decision to move there.

## Alterion's Everstone

Alterion's Everstone is located in a small sea cavern on Oruha Island. The cave is known as the "Cave of Light" and is a popular tourist attraction. At the end of the cave is a hidden passageway that leads to the Everstone.

Ouroboria and Rachel were in charge of locating this Everstone to absorb its power. The two arrived shortly after Azel and the others, so Emma and her sister were once again reunited. However, Rachel didn't seem to care, as she simply absorbed the Everstone's power, told Ouroboria to deal with the group and left.

Azel and the others fought Ouroboria once again. This time they were victorious and Ouroboria died in front of the Everstone. In his final moments, the Everstone's light engulfed him, which prompted him to say the same words as Meruru when she woke up: "This world is coming to an end."

Meruru was once again able to resonate with the Everstone. This time she saw a memory of herself and her sister Iris playing in the Cave of Light.

## Dressarc's Everstone

Dressarc's Everstone is located deep below the Dressarc Castle. After Dressarc's destruction, the Frog Nightmare Geko saw it as his responibility to protect the castle. He remodeled it to include traps, moving rooms and more to keep intruders out. The princes died in the room of the Everstone, so it's very important to Geko. He calls it his 'place of memories'.

As Azel and the others arrives in Dressarc, Geko activates the traps to separate the group. Everyone falls down into the basement labyrinth, with the exception of Oliver and Michi. Geko mistakes Oliver for Prince Ajeel and wants to lead him to the Everstone's room.
Arriving down there, Oliver learns the truth about Geko and decides to play along, asking if he can return the others. Geko agrees and moves the rooms, allowing the others to rejoin them. Shion and Rachel are among these people and a fight breaks out.

The fight gets interrupted by Shion trying to kidnap Meruru. However, the Everstone resonates with her desperation and causes the castle to crumble. Shion lets Meruru go, steals the light and flees with Rachel.

Afterwards, Meruru tries resonating with the Everstone to remember more of her memories. However, she is disturbed to see a memory of Iris being severly wounded. For some reason, Meruru starts questioning if she is even human and falls into despair. Her body starts glowing and moments later, she loses conciousness.

## Claydom's Everstone

Claydom's Everstone is located in a cave in the Halpria Snowlands. The same cave also contains the sealed Gate One, the worst Remurias Gate in history.
Shion and Barbatos were in charge of locating this Everstone, however Shion didn't like that Barbatos was interferring, as he wanted the recognition for himself. Out of frustration he unlocked the seal of Gate One, allowing the angel Nightmares to once again enter Wistaria. He then kidnapped Meruru and teleported away.

Before the two saints appeared, Meruru was able to resonate with the Everstone, learning about her true identity as the weapon Seventh Flare, and remembering her adoptive father Jack.

## Moongarde's Everstone

Moongarde's Everstone is special, as it only exists in Remurias.

The real life counterpart of its location is the volcano area near Logania where a hidden village resides. They see the Everstone as the heart of their god, not knowing that they were just being manipulated by Ouroboria who turned out to be still alive.

When the group arrived, Meruru also reunited with Odoro, who accompanied Ouroboria to absorb the Everstone's light. Odoro allowed her to retrieve her last remaining memories and then left.

After resonating with the Everstone, Meruru remembered everything, not only learning about Odoro's true identity but also Iris' fate.
