We're back in business...but there are some things we need to do...
World map by Tropicon.
Go back to the other end of the room and talk to Princess Elle. Elle has no idea what to say, but Ark tells her not to worry. Elle says her Darkside clone may be gone, but wonders if she'll ever replace her. You then get to tell her who you really have feelings for, and if you say "Surface Elle," you'll get different dialogue.
Regardless of who you pick, Elle will tell you that the village had an old saying that the hero will visit, create a miracle and defeat the dark foe. Elle realizes that hero is you. She then shows you a box similar to the one you opened in Crysta, which contains the weapons of the Hero and says that Columbus found them on his voyages and hid them to make sure they didn't fall into the wrong hands. This is the secret that King Henri slaughtered the entire village of Storkolm - including Elle's parents - to find and Columbus ended up being tortured. She then tells you that the souls of the villagers became wolves to protect the arms, as only Ark can use them.
Approach the box, and Yomi will show up...even though he died along with Darkside Elle. Turns out this is the Lightside Yomi, as the Yomi we knew was evil the entire time. Yomi will tell you that it's time to destroy Beruga, and you get the ultimate weapon in the game: the Hero Pike. (The only thing that compares in strength is the Enbu Pike, and that is only if your level is past 35.) You'll also get the Hero Armor, which is the strongest armor in the game.
If you talk to again, she will await your return in this underground chamber, and asks you to come back when you're finished. Go up the steps, and you'll eventually be in the the Lightside equivalent of the Elder's house. Leave the house, and you'll run into a bird with a letter in its beak. Ark will read the letter, which happens to be from Meihou. Meihou is headed to Siberia, and he explains what has recently happened concerning Neotokio. He'll also tell you that some friends have also shown up to help stop Beruga in his new lab tower in the east of Siberia: Fyda, Royd, Perel and Meilin. He asks you to show up and assist.
From there, exit the town of Storkolm and the dark forest. Having a Bone Pin really helps with that.
Instead of heading to Siberia, head back to Nirlake instead. Instead of being a few houses, it will be a spot of dirt on the ground. You'll find out that since you've been gone, the whole town has been set ablaze and that nothing is left. A shack caught fire and the wind made it worse, destroying the entire village. (Given that Nirlake is where Chicago should be in real life, this is a reference to the Great Chicago Fire of 1871.) Talk to everyone in the town. One of them knows you go to other towns, and asks you to do him a favor. Say yes. He'll give you Nine Letter and ask you to give them to people you meet. There are nine specific people you'll have to hand the 9 Nirlake Letters to in order to get the town rebuilt.
Head east to Will's house. Will's house is the only house not affected by the fire. Equip the 9 Nirlake Letters and use them on him, and he'll be the first person to get to work on rebuilding. He'll tell you he'll get the kids of Kidsgart involved.
