The King of Carnaval
Thank goodness you’re here! I am Batista, the King of Carnaval, and I need your help. Ferocious monsters have scared away everyone! And we can’t host the largest party in the world without any partygoers. Will you help me save the Carnaval of Terra da Festa?
Talk
Carnaval is the most joyous time of the year! Thousands of people gather in Terra da Festa and dance down the streets of the Samb༽romo. Everyone dresses up in fantastic costumes festooned in feathers, headdresses, and masks.
Carnaval costumes are more than just cool—they are important! Feathers symbolize spiritual growth, rebirth, and our ability to rise above Chaos. Masks portray the ability to transform yourself into anything you want, linking sacred and secular life.
Carnaval is significant to the Terra da Festa culture. Carnaval celebrates the importance of community life. Once Carnaval begins, normal life is suspended, worries are forgotten, and everyone is full of joy as we celebrate self-expression, transformation, and exploration!!

The King of Carnaval
Hello, hero! It’s good to see you again, but the festivities haven’t started yet. Why not grab a snack and a cold drink and relax on the beach until then?

Oh, no! The trickster, Saci-pererê, disguised himself as the Guru of Dance and tricked Diego into turning himself into a Bicho Papao—he’s a MONSTER! We have to find him and stop him before he ruins Carnaval!
Saci-pererê
Saci-pererê is a very mischievous character who enjoys playing games with animals and people. Its main antics are braiding the hair of animals during the night, making objects disappear (such as the thimbles of seamstresses), and also whistling in a very shrill way to scare travelers. Saci-pererê is a guardian of the forest - so be prepared for tricks if you go in!

The King of Carnaval
Hello, my friend! Are you here for the celebration? Unfortunately, we may have to cancel this year's party if we can't get some light in this place.
Why IS it so dark? It's nowhere near nighttime yet!
The land of Terra de Festa is given light by the fire snake Boitata. During the day, he brightens the sky like the sun, and at night he lithers into his lair, deep underground, and goes to sleep. But now his light has gone out, and Terra de Festa has been plunged into darkness.
That sounds like a bad situation.
It is. It's been like this for weeks! We must find out what is wrong with him, and help him bring back his flame. We will not be able to survive this way for much longer.

After completing the 'Torch the Torches' quest:
The King of Carnaval
Oh, no wonder Boitata is sick! It's that terrible growth in his lair. That elemental darkness it's been spewing forth has gotten inside of him and made him lethargic and ill. We must get rid of these elementals, and find a way to draw the rest of the darkness out of him.

After completing the 'A Shot in the... Dark' quest:
The King of Carnaval
Oh no! Now Boitata is corrupted… awake… and ANGRY! We have to stop him before he destroys all of Terra de Festa!

After completing the 'Light Him Up' quest:
The King of Carnaval
Thank you for helping me save Boitata - and Terra de Festa! I hope you'll stick around for the party, now that we can actually HAVE it!

Hello, friend! Out here on the water, we're a bit far from the festivities… but never mind that! We've got a mage on board and he can send us exactly where we need to go: Mythperception Island, where you can learn more about (and battle through) the legends of my people.

Hello, friend! You’re far from the festivities aren’t you? Well nevermind that, come! While we’re here, let me tell you the story of Iara. Maybe you can help me keep the forest in balance too while you are here!
Iara?
Sit down friend, and listen well to the story of Iara. Some would call her an Amazon warrior. She protected her tribe well. She also happened to be an extremely beautiful lady. Made the hearts of men skip a beat or two but that also came with a curse of its own. The stories vary depending on the region but there was a fight within her family. In the end, she was pushed off a cliff and fell into the river and drowned.
More
But the story doesn’t end there. Nature itself seemed to witness what happened to Iara and took pity on her, turning her into a mermaid so she could survive. It’s said anyone who sees Iara will have their will tested. The ones who fail will meet the same end and drown. The ones who pass will receive her kindness and be let go.

You have passed Iara's tests, and she has let you go. There is one quest left for you to attempt… if you dare. If you battle her Ultra form, there are more rewards in it for you.

Hey there, Hero! Do you remember believing the fairy tales and stories you were told as a child? This might sound silly, but I never stopped believing. People nowadays just recognize the stories as what they are - tales to scare children… But I want to find the proof of their existence! There have been some strange happenings in the forest but it is much too dense and dangerous to traverse alone. What do you say, wanna go looking for fun?
Fairy Tales?
Yes, fairy tales! Around here, there's a few local legends and tales about a few beings named Saci, Corpo Seco and Cuca. Do any of the catch your interest?
Saci?
Saci is known for being a trickster. He has only one leg, and he is often seen wearing his hat which people who have claimed to see Saci say smells extremely horrid. He can "walk by either jumping on this single leg, or turning himself into a small dust tornado. It's said you can trap him inside a glass bottle by placing it under his tornado form and he'll grant you and wish.
Corpo Seco?
Corpo Seco, eh? It's said he is a man who was so bad in life that even his own grave rejected him. Now he's condemned to steal other people's life force, while suffering in a slow and painful decomposition.
Cuca?
Oh boy, Cuca is the one to scare kids before bed that's sure. Cuca is said to be and extremely dangerous and hostile witch, especially to young children who are especially naughty as "no one will miss naughty children." It is said children who unfortunately encounter Cuca aren't seen again. She appears human to lure lost children to her but once they're in her range, her head morphs into that of an alligator. Creepy, huh?
Mythical Boto?
Oh yes, my friend! The legend of the pink dolphin is one of the most widespread in our country. The creature is known to be very intelligent, and very romantic. While the moon is full, he can change shape from dolphin to man, and searches for a new love. The stories say he cannot change his form completely, so he must wear a hat on his head to hide his dolphinish features.
