STORY
+When Mario and co. arrive, the Shy Guy does not have them registered in the list this time...
SHY GUY: Anyway, if you come back later, you can fight battles and win fabulous prizes. Such as...a Grand Paint Star. Unfortunately, the roster is full at the moment. And security’s busy keeping some unwanted guests out. Sorry, pal.
EDWIN: Did that fellow say we could win prizes? Let me at them! I’ll win the Battle Royal fair and square!
LOUIS: Or, maybe idraulico boy here could win it. I’ve seen him take on this island’s best fighter without wrinkling his cappello!
HUEY: Guys, guys! Let’s not forget the most important prize here- the Grand Paint Star! We need to get in now, or we’ll miss our chance.
??: Yeah- maybe I can help pencil you in for an appointment.
Nastasia and O’Chunks arrive on the scene.
HUEY: I didn’t think we’d be seeing you two again so soon. What brings you here?
O’CHUNKS: We were jus’ checkin’ out the bro-churs for the whole bloomin’ island, tryin’ to decide where to go next. Been hearin’ from the local birds to check ou’ their coliseum! Bu’ it seems teh me those wee l’il turtle kids took it over!
SHY GUY: Sir, I’ll have you know that we run a legitimate competition here.
NASTASIA: Yeah, no- I have a better idea. You’re going to let us in, since you just found there were six extra slots in the roster.
SHY GUY: Uh, no- I’m not doing any of-
Nastasia hypnotizes the Shy Guy.
SHY GUY: Hold on one moment... Just as I thought! You’ve all been preregistered for the next Battle Royal already! My mistake! Please enter through the door to your right and stop by the pre-screening desk. Good luck!


+Upon entering the coliseum...
HUEY: Awfully dark in here, isn’t it? They’re really setting the stage!
O’CHUNKS: I’m not afrai’ o‘ no darkness! I can’t wait to unleash Fist Jr. an’ Slappy in a Battle Royal!
NASTASIA: Yeah- I guess it could be fun.
O’Chunks and Nastasia hurry ahead.

+At the prescreening desk, the lift is bent out of shape. Some Shy Guys are trying to fix it.
SHY GUY: Welcome to the prescreening desk. I’m here to weed out the unqualified. ...or, at least I usually would. Unfortunately, that purple-coated Vellbex busted the lift, so even if you were bad to the bone like her, I couldn’t let you in. Come back when the lift's repaired. By then, I’ll bet your inventory won’t be so bare-bones.
EDWIN: ...that was just painful.

+When Mario finds the Draggadon Bones...
VERONICA: Hey-yo, Mario. We have something for you. So get this- we heard one of the fossils from Marmalade Valley was STOLEN! And by Kidd, no less! Can you believe that girl? Using our keen Memphawk senses, we found it, drudged in this old room.
Veronica, Jonny and The Invisible CAAN stand aside.
VERONICA: Well, here it is. I thought you’d be happy with this old thing. So don’t hold back. You can give me a big hug, if you can take it. ...or you can hug the bone. An old friend told me you might do that.
Mario gets the Bone.
VERONICA: Wow! You held that up like it was a toy! What muscles you have! And with that...
All three Yellow Squad members salute.
VERONICA: Veronica, Jonny and Invisible CAAN...Over and out! We’ll report back to the Squad Captain at Port Prisma HQ until further notice. CAAN?
The Invisible CAAN destroys the box. All three Yellow Squad members leave.

ARTIFACTS
Draggadon Bone
Slots: 2
Effect: Prevents enemies from using dodge defenses.

+After Mario and co. get the Chomp Bone and exit the room, they see O’Chunks and Nastasia at the prescreening desk.
O’CHUNKS: ...come back when the doors are repaired? Buddy, I can repair the door wit’ jus’ one punch! Watch!
SHY GUY: Sir, waitwaitwaitWAIT!
O’Chunks punches the door. Sure enough, it straightens out.
SHY GUY: I...don’t believe it. You actually fixed the door! And just when we were about to give up!

O’CHUNKS: Yeh canno’ give up when a skinny l’il door stan’s refuses tah open. Yeh gotta keep at it!
NASTASIA: Yeah, O’Chunks- nice words and all. But, do you have a transcript proving this optimism?
O’CHUNKS: Ah dunna need some wee note fer proof- ah jus’ need tah give a chunkin’! C’mon, Nastasia- some fun awai’s!
O’Chunks and Nastasia walk onto the lift. The lift comes back.

+There’s actually two waves of enemies before fighting Iggy. The first wave isn’t really a wave, though....
Mario, Huey, Edwin and Louis arrive atop...
HUEY: Look, Mario! There it is!
Camera shows...
HUEY: The Topaz Grand Paint Star!
IGGY (voice): What the- you’re here, too!? HUWUHWUHWUH! And just after we ambushed the big guy and his girlfriend!
O’Chunks and Nastasia are tied up in the right corner. Nastasia’s eyes are covered by a bandana.
O’CHUNKS: I canna’ believe I walked righ’ inna tha’ one! When I get loose, Imma chunkin’ the green-haired turtle!
NASTASIA: I’ll come with you to that appointment, O’Chunks. After I regain my sight, of course.
IGGY: Get a hotel room, you two! The only way this could be worse is if-
??: Mario! I’ve been looking all over this island to pick a bone with you!
A Goomba wearing Musketeer garb drops in from above.
LOUIS: Skydiving Goombas? Now I’ve seen everything. By the way, uh...who is that guy, Mario?
Mario thinks. He then shrugs.
MYSTERY GOOMBA: How could you not remember me, Mario! I’m the Goomba who that other Mario damaged. Ooh- I still feel it now, just thinking about it.
MARIO: ?
MYSTERY GOOMBA: You ruined my buddies’ wheelerific revenge against the other Mario and that green guy?
MARIO: ?
MYSTERY GOOMBA: ...You wrecked the awesomely giant Papercraft I was riding?!
MARIO: ! ...?
MYSTERY GOOMBA: Aw, come on! That one was a freebie! OK- how about this-?
NASTASIA: Hold on- I know that voice. Perry?
NEWCOMER! Perry
MYSTERY GOOMBA/PERRY [ i.imgur.com/dMH0LMq.png ]: Oh NO. Why are YOU here?!
NASTASIA: Yeah, you were that team player who helped detain the man in green. Even though ...it doesn’t matter anymore... I appreciate the spirit.
Mario looks annoyed at Perry over this. Meanwhile, O’Chunks looks sad.
O’CHUNKS: Nastasia...
PERRY: Well, good for you! I moved on to better things, though! I’m working with the Musketeers now! And for my first test- I’ll finally get rid of Mario!
A battle with Perry begins.

BGM- Megasparkle Goom... Battle [Original] (Paper Mario: Sticker Star [Recut])
MINIBOSS TIME! PERRY

HP: 80

MARK: Musketeer
+Unlike other minibosses, enemy card HP does not drop against Perry.

After restoring color to the big coin, the game auto-saves immediately. It then moves to a different viewpoint...

LUIGI INTERLUDE- MARIO’S OLD HOUSE
+After Chapter 2, an interlude with Luigi takes place at Mario’s original house.
Luigi is awakening in his bed. Strangely, he doesn’t get a newcomer title card...
LUIGI [ i.imgur.com/ioDaLBV.png ]: *chap-chap* What-a night. And a-what a raging a-party. But a-now, it’s a-time to a-find more coins.
Luigi gets out of bed, still wearing his clothes.
LUIGI: Mario a-leaving me this a-house was a-nice of a-him, but I a-don’t make as a-much moolah as a-before.
Suddenly, a thump is heard.
LUIGI: Eh? Who’s a-there!?
Luigi heads into the main room. There, he sees a brown cloaked figure.
The cloaked figure runs out, leaving behind a letter.
LUIGI: HEY! Come a-back! Hmmm- it’s a letter! For- a-me? Luigi? And...what’s a-that smell?
Luigi uses his hand to waft the letter’s fragrance before him.
LUIGI: Hmm...smells a-like...a flower? But- I’m a-not sure what a-kind. Oh well. Now, to a-see what’s a-on the letter...

TO LUIGI
I’d written this letter some time ago, yet have instructed my people to send it to you only in extreme circumstances.
I assume you’ve heard of the paradise known as Prism Island by now. Whether from your princess, your brother, or even that OTHER fellow- the name must surely have reached your ears at some point.
I write to you in particular, for there is a task only you can accomplish at my home. A helpful item is buried at this spot on the island. I should know- I helped bury it years ago, in case a certain problem arose. And if my old friend’s perceptions are correct- it will. Head to Prism Island ASAP, please. This crystal should help you find what you need. Oh, and after you’re done, the item will fetch you a nice bid. Enjoy.


LUIGI: Huh, that’s strange. No signature. Just...a piece of crystal? Hmm...
Luigi stops thinking.
LUIGI: Oh well. If I a-pull this off, I’ll be a hero! And I’ll a-be super rich! Then I can a-throw a party, and it’ll be a-Luigi Time for a-months! Oh YEAH!
Luigi rushes out the door.
Immediately after, a phone starts ringing.
PHONE: Are you there, Luigi? This is Ganag of the Prism Island hotel, Dark Bloo Inn. It’s getting really spooky around here! ...hello?

PORT PRISMA CHAPTER 2- EPILOGUE
STORY
+After returning to Port Prisma...
HUEY: We did it! The Topaz Grand Paint Star has been returned to Prisma Fountain!
TOPAZ: Mario...Edwin...Louis...and you too, Huey...Thanks for saving me. I am the Topaz Grand Paint Star. My memory is a little better than the Crimson Big Paint Star’s. Allow me to get you up to speed. Before the young Koopa Prince scattered us across the island, he and his forces engaged in a battle with the Musketeers...

+In this version, the Slurp Guys and Boosketeers are fighting each other near the post office. In addition, it turns out while the Shy Guys did suck the color out of Pesshi and blow up the bridge under Mottley’s supervision, Pitholl and Cucleer scared them off. However, they dropped the letter into the water, going into the sewer grate...
+To accommodate a change with the flashbacks, the part where the Shy Guy sneak slurps a person is no longer there. Instead, it cuts out immediately after Pitholl and Cucleer fly away.
After the flashback...
EDWIN: No- way! Pitholl and Cucleer just swatted those Shy Guys away as if they were nothing!
HUEY: Where was THAT skill when we fought them?! I’m kind of a little nervous now. At least they’re not big burly guys, thought.
EDWIN: Don’t underestimate the Musketeers, Huey! If you think Pitholl and Cucleer have skills, Aace’s done things with that sword even those two can’t. And about that “big, burly swords guy” comment- you see-
LOUIS: There’s just one thing that makes zero sense. If Junior’s forces didn’t send the Brustache letter, and ghost man dropped him in the water- then how’d he end up with Peach?
Everyone thinks about this.
HUEY: That IS strange. But if we can just keep find Grand Paint Stars a piece these memories together, we can learn about that, and even what really happened before Mario showed up!
TOPAZ: Hold on. I have- one more gift for you.
Topaz conjures up an Artifact-Up Slot.
MARIO CAN NOW EQUIP 4 ARTIFACTS!

CHAPTER 3
MONDO WOODS II
STORY
+Edwin gets Huey’s line on the big coin’s value...
EDWIN: What? That was worth only 1 lousy coin? I’m calling it- SHENANIGANS!

+After our main heroes and Kersti enter the inn...
FEMALE SUITED PIANTA: Oh, of course the world-famous VIP shows up now...Look, I wish I could take your coin, Mr. Mario, but the hotel is closed...indefinitely. You see, we’ve had some bizarre... occurences here as of late. We’re really in no state to welcome guests.
The Vellbex in the back of the room gets off the phone.
VELLBEX BELLBOY: Ms. Bloomington! It happened again. Another silent phone call.

FEMALE SUITED PIANTA/MS. BLOOMINGTON: See? There’s a strange force at work here. I had Ganag there call Luigi because paranormal activity is kind of his thing, but it went straight to voice mail. Do you think you and your friends could poke around and find out what’s causing all of this? I beg of you!
KERSTI: Mario, did you hear that? More paranormal activity! Like ghosts and junk!
HUEY: We should investigate. I have an inkling that this has something to do with the Paint Stars.
EDWIN: And it doesn’t seem like it’s just colorless spots- this place is creepier than Aace without his eyebrows!
HUEY: Brrrrr! Actually, to be honest...I’ve always wanted to be a paranormal investigator.
KERSTI: Ooh! We should get business cards! Then we can call ourselves- Colors and the Plumber Man!
HUEY: Hahahaha! I love that name, Kersti!
KERSTI: Heeheehee! Thanks, Huey!

+Kersti is talking to Ganag for most of the level. If Mario eavesdrops...
KERSTI: ...and do you know what happened to the Sticker Fairy who went into the jungle?
GANAG: N-n-n-no! What?
KERSTI: He got all mushy! And wet! And smelly! That’s why I started people against going into the jungle- it’s not good for their hygiene!

MARIO TALKING TO PURI T.


+Since Spike is affiliated with the Musketeers, a Clubba takes over his role as a member of Shady Sledge Bros’ gang. On a similar note, a Red Koopa takes over the normal Koopa’s duties.


+Yoshi has some parting words for Mario after the latter tries riding him.
YOSHI: Sorry, Mario. Maybe some other time. I’m off to check the circus.

STORY
+When Mario and co arrives...
BRUSTACHE: You look familiar. Do you have a brother or twin or something? A guy named...Wa-Mario, maybe? No, that’s not it...Anyway, I’m the greeter here at Plum Park, Elleine. This park is currently owned and operated by the Dark Bloo Inn. The purest water in all of Prism Island flows through this park! Speaking of water, my manager asked me to keep an eye out for a teapot, but that’s above my pay grade.

HUEY: So you haven’t seen a teapot around?
ELLEINE: Nope. I’m just the greeter here. I usually hang out by the entrance. Too bad we don’t have a lost and found here. Ooh! I should suggest that!
LOUIS: Then I guess it’s us to us quattro madman to find the teapot.

+At the area with the concert...
SOL: Mario! I heard the garden’s water got tainted, so I came to lay the smackdown. But I can’t figure out tha’ water source! It’s supposed to be around here! And this big stage- it’s totes blocking my view! Apparently, Suebelle is busting her hips up there later, with a pop singer from far away.

Mario and the gang look at the stage.
SOL: This don’t sit right with me. Why’s she performin’, without her sis, in this poison garden? I need to stay here and figure out her deal while we all watch, brudda!

+When Mario and co arrive at the show...
SHY GUY: Hurry up. The show’s about to start!
The lights dim.
Green Koopas dance on both sides of the stage.
??: When did we fall so madly in love?
Those plump pursed lips!
The overdone purple eye shadow

You only call me by moonlight...
Two hearts in doki doki panic
My heart Flutter Jumps
Kiss me, my darling
Oops! There’s egg on your face


SHY GUY: Birdo’s a bit past her prime, but she’s still got the moves! Too bad I can’t say the same for her partner’s dancing, though.
SOL: My investigation of the concert confirmed it: jazz hands are the height of entertainment! I mean, those hands- so unnaturally jazzy! Iron Hard Jonny needs to know about those hands at once! Red, you go snoop around for the fountain!
Sol salutes.
SOL: Sol of the Yellow Rescue Squad, reporting for the smackdown! I’mma headin’ back to Port Prisma HQ to see if Jonny’s there!
After Sol leaves...
EDWIN: First...that was unexpected. I might have to pick that album up, once I get the coins. Second, why aren’t you with Marirana, Suebelle?
SUEBELLE: She’s just- URGHHH! She’s way too open about herself! On our way here, we got into a fight over what you said, and- let’s just say we’re no longer the Deeps Sisters. Thank Grambi that Birdo understands me, or I’d go nuts! Just- leave me alone! Go find whatever’s poisoning the garden!
Suebelle leans on the wall.
EDWIN: But...I didn’t mean to...
+After Mario hits the wall...
SUEBELLE: Of all the- it was right behind us the whole time! Could this day get any more stupid?!

DARK BLOO INN II
STORY
+After giving the ghosts the Royal Teapot...
MS. BLOOMINGTON: Mr. Mario, I thank you for resolving this bizarre conundrum. I am relieved that our six...spooky customers were happy in the end. And the mysterious room in the basement seems to be clear of all those weird creatures. With that, our hotel will finally open its doors for business once again. Please take this as an expression of our gratitude.
Mario receives a set of Super cards- Mushroom, Red Syrup, Blue Syrup, Yellow Syrup and 1-Up Shroom.

PIANTA GUY [ i.imgur.com/pd42nDv.png ]: Mario! Look! This is super serious!
HUEY: Whoa! Part of the sea is completely colorless! This is a severe environmental issue! One could even call it a “green” issue! Though I guess it’s more of a “blue” issue.
MARIRANA: Huey, darlin’, maybe yeh should take a nap fer a bit.
PIANTA: Forget the sea, or your puns! We’ve got a Vellbex complex!
A cannon ball fires at the lookout tower. Huey SWOOOOOOooces right under, Matrix style. Deh neh neh, nuhNUH nuh NUHnuh...

PIANTA GUY: Whoa! How did you...? Never mind. That’s our boat over there. Kidd the Vellbex and some monsters she tamed came out of nowhere! The Rescue Squad tried to help, but well...they’re kind of full of themselves.
Another cannonball destroys the boxes blocking the way to the ship, revealing a Vellbex girl.
VELLBEX GIRL [ i.imgur.com/DXApdnI.png ]: They’ve bwoken thwough the bawwicade!

Or we’re supposed to be, at least...See, I heard this lousy turnip was blocking the path, so I kicked into action! But the rest of my family hasn’t arrived yet. Perhaps they didn’t get my message.

MUSTARD CAFÉ

+Upon finding the next massive blank spot...
HUEY: Whoa it’s another one of those massive blank spots. Gross...
MARIRANA: Are those a couple’a’Toads hangin’ out in the middle?

CHEF/BAKKE T [ i.imgur.com/aaxIg4C.png ]: Aw, yeah. That’s the stuff. You don’t have to, like, rescue anyone right now, do you? Cause I don’t want this to stop. Ever.

BEEYEW T: Nuh-uh, lady. My top “prior’ty” is “res’cuin’” you from the hotness.
Beeyew T stops fanning.
BEEYEW T: But you only gave me money coins for one-two-four-three hours. And I think time’s ‘bout...up. Sorry, Misses Bakke T., but you hafta make anoth’r “reser-vation”. Have a good day!
Beeyew T salutes.
BEEYEW T: Beeyew T of the Green R’scue Squad, r’portin’ for duty! Now, if you’ll ‘scuse me, Mister Mario, I have to go “r’port” to my mommy! Or daddy, if he’s OK...
Beeyew T runs off.
BAKKE T: ‘Sup, Mario. Look, I appreciate you coming all the way down here, but I don’t have a table for you, OK? If you don’t mind sitting at the bar, I can mayyyybe squeeze you in. In three years. What can I say? The Mustard Café is on fire right now. We’re hotter than the star from the sky I stole from the Snifits, you know?
HUEY: Star from the sky? Guys, you thinking what I’m thinking?
LOUIS: I think so, Huey, but where are we going to find a spaceship to head to the Comet Observatory?

GREEN SQUAD TOADS: Understood! Over and out!
The Green Squad move out.
Before Mario can leave, however...
SQUAD CAPTAIN: Hold it. I heard from Yellow Rescue Squad...you ran into Kidd again, didn’t you?
Mario nods.
MARIRANA: Squad Capt’in, why is Kidd actin’ like a rabbid Chain Chomp t’wards everyone?
SQUAD CAPTAIN: I’m afraid that’s a matter between Kidd and I. All I can say is, she’s handling things poorly. If she gets in your way again, and doesn’t listen to you, let me know. Her behaviour is unacceptable, and would especially negatively influence B-

Huey looks at the sign for a second.
HUEY: (quietly) Oh! Weird. The writing on this sign is SUPER TINY. Why do you think it’s so small? And why am I whispering?
+Upon approaching the Mini-Paint Star...
EDWIN: A Mini Paint Star! Here?! And no boss guarding it? That’s...a little too easy.
Huey looks happy.

Right before their eyes, Perry steals the Mini Paint Star.

Wrodes is in the vent, alone. Mario must hit the vent three times to get her out.
WRODES: I snuck in here like a total warrior, and got stuck in there, also like a total warrior. But I’m strongest when I’m near the others. Wrodes of Blue Rescue Squad, reporting for teamwork! Since I’m nowhere near the others, I’ll report back to Port Prisma HQ until further tagging!


+Stabyl T is the one in the locker next to the café.
STABYL T: (...) Stabyl T of the Blue Rescue Squad, reporting for duty! Since I’ve been separated from Captain Verda, I’ll report back to Port Prisma HQ until further notice!


+After defeating the Snifit, it changes into a Boosketeer.
BOOSKETEER: Egad, Sir! Such frightening strength! I donned this nightmarish disguise to infiltrate enemy ranks, as per Aace’s orders. But I hadn’t a clue of what I would gaze upon, on account of that suffocating mask! ...though permit my apology for such a childish insult as “big nose”. Perhaps now, it is time we beget our invasion...
The Boosketeer flies off.
EDWIN: This must be a new plan of Aace’s. He never mentioned wanting this crummy base before I left. Something must have changed.

Kanviss is on the treadmill in the exercise room. Meanwhile, the other two Rescue Squad members are replaced with Spiked Guys.
KANVISS: *huff* *huff* *huff* *huff* Would you be... *huff* *huff* Ma- *huff...rio? *huff* Care to *huff* engage in *huff* some *huff* jog... *huff* ...ing *huff* with *huff* me?
MARIRANA: If yer permittin’, sugar!
Mario, Huey and Marirana join Kanviss in her exercise.
KANVISS: Phew! That’s quite enough for today.
Kanviss salutes while straddling in place.
KANVISS: Kanviss of the Blue Rescue Squad, reporting for duty! As I’ve been separated from Captain Verda, I’ll report back to Port Prisma HQ until further notice!
After Kanviss leaves...
HUEY: Whew! That was a good workout.
MARIRANA: You got tha’ righ’, hon! It’s been a’hwile since I got mah heart in the beat!

Rather than a Rescue Squad member, there’s a Green Koopa underneath the exercise room.
GREEN KOOPA: (after thanking Mario for freeing him) Here- I found these under the General’s bunk bed. He confiscated most of them from his squad.
MARIO GOT 3 TAIL CARDS!
GREEN KOOPA: Relaxation, here I come!
The Green Koopa runs off.

+Just before Mario enters the boss room...
?: Alright, our loyal, friendly Musketeers...LET’S SEIZE THE BASE!
Cucleer and Pitholl arrive, along with a gaggle of Boosketeers and Blue Koopas.
One of the Shy Guys eating a Magma Burger notices them.
SHY GUY: And on my break, too. UGH...
PITHOLL: How can you CLAIM to show LOYALTY for your general if you take BRRRREAKS! You wouldn’t even make a good COSTUME with that laziness! OH, the inner conflict- oh, the inner conflict!
SHY GUY: ...yeah. Uh, hold on one moment.
The Shy Guy takes a bite of his Magma Burger.
SHY GUY: Mmm....that’s good Magma Burger.
Without warning, the Shy Guy unleashes his fiery burp, burning a Blue Koopa and Boosketeer to ashes.
BLUE KOOPA ASHES: Most uncouth, masked sir.
SHY GUY: GUYYYYS!
A ton of Red Koopas and Slurp Guys show up.
CUCLEER: Ah, how adorable- they actually think they can beat us....WELL, IT’S NOT HAPPENING! CHARGE!
The Koopaling minions and Musketeers fight.
EDWIN: Well, at least they’re occupied. While they’ll busy fighting each other, we can focus on the general.

+If Mario exits to the world map and re-enters the room from the south entrance again...
PITHOLL: YOU must wait your TURN, plumber!
Mario and co. get shoved aside.

LUIGI INTERLUDE- MOSSROCK THEATRE (UNCOLORED)
GAMEPLAY
+When playing as Luigi, he undergoes the following stat changes from Mario:
MAX HP: +30
JUMP ATTACKS: x1.3 on the first hit
HAMMER ATTACKS: x0.7 on all hits
+Luigi does not have a Paint Meter. This means for the first part of the level, he must be extra careful with his cards. This ironically makes his battles more like the original version of Sticker Star.
+Some puzzles are changed to allow Luigi to progress through the level.
+The level ends earlier than usual for Luigi at least (the end of the second screen). In addition, some paths, such as the one to the now-conjoined Purple-Orange Paint Star, are closed.

STORY
+Luigi arrives at the entrance to Mossrock Theatre.
LUIGI: A-boy, that was a-long voyage! After I a-find the treasure, I’ll a-share a-some of it with a-Captain Azure! It was a-nice of a-him to bring a-me here on a-short a-notice! I a-hope he a-makes his a-daughter a-lots of-
Suddenly, there are sounds of a fight.
LUIGI: Sounds a-like someone is a-in a-trouble! I a-should go a-check it a-out! And while I a-walk there, I’ll a-figure out who I’m a-talking to.
+As Luigi passes the colorless Toad, now a young girl...
LUIGI: What, uh- what a-happened here?

+When Luigi arrives at the next room, he sees what appears to be a banana fighting off Boos and Boosketeers.
NEWCOMER! Nabana
NABANA [ i.imgur.com/enrVNI8.png ]: Haw. Haw. Haw. You’re going to have to do a lot better then that, mon! Maybe a dancing contest is more up your alley for facing someone like me!
BOOSKETEER: Still your cheek, foreign plantation! THEY would be most interested in your presence here, of all times!
LUIGI: Got a-room for one a-more?
Luigi jumps into the fray.
BATTLE! Boo x3, Boosketeer x2


+While fighting the Boos...
NABANA: Where did you come from, mon? I had these duppies on the ropes!
LUIGI: Well, I a-thought maybe I a-should bust a-these Boos- it’s a-something I do from a-time to time!
NABANA: Then let me give you some to nyam on, mon! A little sumthin I picked up while cruisin’ in space with mi friends! YA HA HA!

+With Nabana in Luigi’s party, Luigi can use the Partner Meter to obtain a set of 18 cards:
3 Normal Jump
2 Super Jump
3 Normal Hammer
2 Super Hammer
3 Fire Flowers
3 Ice Flowers
1 Mushroom

+After defeating the Boos...
NABANA: Yuh did almost as good as me, bredren! You should tag along with me, as my second banana! Haw. Haw. Haw.
LUIGI: I...kind of a-already am a-second banana to a-my Big Bro, Mario?
NABANA: That’s OK, mon- you can never be too many people’s sidek- WAIT! Are you pulling this Sticker Fairy’s dreadlocks, Green!? Mario’s your Bro?!
LUIGI: How do you know Mario?
NABANA: From a friend of mine, Kersti. She loves talking about this plumba who helped her find our planet’s Royal Stickers. I could have done it faster, but I wasn’t on the Comet that year, mon! Instead, I was competing against my other friends.
LUIGI: So...do you a-wanna join up with a-me, Luigi, as I look for treasure, or-?
NABANA: Of course we’ll join together, Luigi! You can call me Nabana- the strongest Sticker Fairy ever, mon!
LUIGI: A-groovy.

+Upon reading a poster for the Emerald Circus...
NABANA: A circus in the forest, Luigi? Maybe your treasure’s there, bredren! We should check it out! And I could become their attraction as a strong mon!
LUIGI: Okey a-dokey.

+When Luigi reaches the end of the long screen...
LUIGI: Phew! That a-was an ordeal! I a-hope this a-treasure is a-worth fighting all a-these weird a-guys!
NABANA: What did I tell you, Luigi? When you train under me, you start feeling my strength, mon! Because I’m the king of all jungles!
??: Then that would make me the queen of the jungle, while you’re second best!
A certain brown-haired woman walks in...
NEWCOMER! Daisy
NABANA: Haw. Haw. Haw. I like your spirit, womon! You think you’re stronger than Nabana!
Daisy looks proud.
DAISY: Well, I DO rip up the competition in some races his brother holds.

LUIGI: DAISY!? I a-didn’t think you’d be on a-Prism Island, a-too!
DAISY: HUKK! Hukk hukk. I could say the same about you, Green.
LUIGI: Wait...wait, now I a-get it! YOU were the one who a-sent me the a-letter! It a-explains the flower a-smell?
DAISY: ...you got a letter too? Get out! I would have thought you wrote me my letter- it’s just so like you. Everyone uses e-mail these days, Green.
LUIGI: ...wh-wh-what?
DAISY: No, really- you should totes get yourself a computer! Maybe even a laptop, if you have the coins for it-
LUIGI: No- not a-the computer! Your a-letter! Did a-it say a-anything about someone seeing a-problem a-coming?
DAISY: ...yeah, it- did. How did you...?
Luigi pulls his letter out. Daisy looks at both.
DAISY: Holy Dragonzamasu- they’re completely identical! Except mine only mentions Peach. And I didn’t get a crystal. And I received a free package of Turtley Leaves. But other than that, they’re completely the same!
LUIGI: Maybe we a-should just head to Port a-Prisma! Someone’s obviously a-trying to a-trick us!
NABANA: Then let’s force them to spring their trap, bredren! And while they laugh, we’ll overpower them by surprise! Look, mon, this might be a trick, or it might be the truth. But if you walk away now, you might never know.
DAISY: I’m in! I need a little exercise, anyways- strengthens my legs for tennis. What about you, Green?
Luigi is thinking.
LUIGI: .....against a-my better instincts, I a-think you have a point. Besides, I a-really need a-some coins. And a-even a trick is a-an opportunity I can’t a-pass up!
NABANA: Good, Luigi! We all agree. Now follow me, my second bananas, and let’s dance!
DAISY: Al-RIIIGHT!
LUIGI: Oh-kay.
The three head deeper into the theatre.
After they leave, Aace appears out of thin air.
AACE: Well, I’m mighty glad they decided to keep movin’ forward. Now, whether they find a treasure or a trap- that’s their call.
Aace floats off.
AACE: Now, there’s just the matter of figurin’ out how Princess Peach found Postmaster Pesshi...

PORT PRISMA CHAPTER 3- EPILOGUE
+After returning to Port Prisma...
HUEY: The Azure Grand Paint Star has returned to Prisma Fountain!
AZURE: Thank you...I am the Azure Grand Paint Star. Allow me to share my memories with you...

+During this version of the memory, Aace and the Musketeers are fighting Bowser Junior and the Koopa Pack around the Grand Paint Stars.

+After the flashback ends...
MARIRANA: What a mess of things those two made! Even the Musketeers couldn' stop those Shy varmints from hauling all that paint!
HUEY: The one Kersti’s comet destroyed at the Crimson Tower was just in charge of Red...But where’d they bring all that paint?
MARIRANA: Don’t fret, l’il Huey! We’ll jus’ res’cue the nex’ Grand Paint Star- it prob’bly knows!
AZURE: It’s possible. Now, I have one more gift for you...
Azure conjures up an Artifact-Up Slot.
MARIO CAN NOW EQUIP 5 ARTIFACTS!

+Inside the treasure chest downstairs, Mario doesn’t find a member of Blue Rescue Squad. It’s just the Day 2 Journal Entry.

+Upon returning to Baabeaussa after finding at least one page...
BAABEAUSSA: Ahoy, mate. Ye find anything down in the cabin?
[Upon talking about the legendary captain]
HUEY: And who is this “legendary captain”? That’s a pretty impressive title.
PIANTA GUY: The legendary captain is the greatest captain who’s ever lived! One that almost all other captains admire! Well, except this one guy on a faraway continent, but that’s another story.
CAPRI: He’s the onwy captain to eveh make it to Fowtune Iswand!
RED TOADETTE: But after he reached Fortune Island, he was never heard from again. Only his ship- this ship- came back.
BAABEAUSSA: They found the legendary captain’s journal on this very ship. But the first five pages were missin’. Of course, those be the pages that detail his crossing of the Lost Sea.
LOUIS: So this piece of looseleaf contains an entry from the captain’s journey, la donna?
BAABEAUSSA: Bingo, mate. If ye can collect all five missing journal entries, we should be able to cross the Lost Sea. Let me know if ye find any more pages.

After bringing Baabeaussa all 5 pages...
BAABEAUSSA: Well, blow me down! That’s all five journal entries.
EDWIN: So this means we can cross the Lost Sea now, right?
BAABEAUSSA: Well...yar. In theory. Just as the legendary captain once set sail, so will we...To Fortune Is-
: Do not set sail yet! Does your ship have room for one such as I?
Everyone turns around to see...
NEWCOMER! Nya
Everyone, especially Mario, is surprised to see Nya.
BAABEAUSSA: Yar, and who ye be?
NYA [ i.imgur.com/3QZbjwo.png ]: You are the Vellbex Captain Baabeaussa, are you not? I am Nya, of the Ninji clan in the Decal Lands’ Fibe Forests.
CAPRI: State your business ow weave the ship. Aunty Baabeaussa don’t wike Ninjis much.
BAABEAUSSA: Eye- a Ninji almost took it out during a sneak attack. Fortunately, I escaped with it. Unfortunately- me leg was chomped off by the nearby Cheepskipper shortly after.
PIANTA GUY: And if we’re being honest, Ninjis kind of creep me too. Yikes.
NYA: You must hear me out- the fate of your voyage depends on it! My mother and Ninji clan leader, Ori, sent me to Prism Island to investigate a threat- one similar to that which threatened my people in the Decal Lands. Without Mario, my clan would have been doomed to drown in that evil’s plague.
BAABEAUSSA: That’s still no reason teh bring ye along on this voyage. If anything, it proves Mario’s reliability more.
NYA: There’s more! The threat I speak of may linger on this Fortune Island you seek. If you deny me this opportunity to travel aboard your ship, who knows what will happen there? Please- it may mean the end of the Ninjis if this is not resolved- and if my mother’s feelings ring true, all species. Including the Vellbex.

BAABEAUSSA: ...eye. Very well. Ye can hitch a ride with us and back, Ninji. But after that, we’re done.
NYA: I am grateful for your accommodation, Captain.
CAPRI: Weight anchor and waise the mainsail!
RED TOADETTE: Fortune, Paint Stars, and something important to Prism Island await!
PIANTA GUY: We’re all gonna die!
CAPRI: Act wike a man, Wieutenant Pierre!
PIANTA GUY/PIERRE: Y-y-yes, miss Caapri!
BAABEAUSSA: Yahaharrr! That be the spirit!
NYA: Now we are getting somewhere!
HUEY: Uh...Yeah! Let’s go look for Fortune Island and more Paint Stars! And Nya’s thing, too!

+After the ship sets sail, a certain sub rises out of the water where the ship once was.
: Hehehe...they’ll never make it to Fortune Island alive. Not with my new weapon!

STORY
+The ship approaches a large whirlpool.
BAABEAUSSA: Belay the vessel!
Mario, his friends and Baabeaussa take a closer look.
BAABEAUSSA: We almost broke the first rule of sailing- never steer into a vortex, no matter how strangely enticing it looks.
HUEY: But...there’s a Mini Paint Star sitting there in the center...just waiting for us to grab it!
LOUIS: Huey, amico, uomo pazzo- even I know this ship’s not getting through that vortex. Even you wouldn’t sacrifice this ship for the Star.
HUEY: ...
BAABEAUSSA: He’s right, mate. There’s no way we can reach it while the sea be raging like this. Let’s make land over there for now.

+After setting dock at Vortex Island...
BAABEAUSSA: We’ll go ashore first and see about that whirlpool. Take yer time and meet us there. We’ll try to figure out what to do before ye catch up with us.
NYA: I will stay behind for now, to consider my own future actions as well.
BAABEAUSSA: By the time yer done, we’ll probably already be on it.
Baabeaussa turns around to look at her crew.
BAABEAUSSA: BAAAAAAA! To fortune!
Baabeaussa, Pierre and the red Toadette head off.
EDWIN: I like Captain Baabeaussa. I should join her crew after we’re done recoloring the island.
CAPRI: Let me know if you want to weave the iswand. I’m shewa Aunt Baabeaussa will undehstand.


+Mario and co. reach the crew at the bridge.
BAABEAUSSA: We can’t go any further, but I’ll lose my horns if that’ll stop us from trying.

Upon reaching the building on the other side of the cave...
HUEY: Ah! Maybe whoever lives here can tell us something useful...

After restoring the color of the Brustache in the house...
FEMALE BRUSTACHE: Oh, my beautiful color! You’re such a hero, dear! But- what are you doing around these parts, anyway?

MARIRANA: We’re in a bind like a Moo Moo in a lasso! Our ship is stuck because ‘a this whirlpool!
FEMALE BRUSTACHE: In that case, I’ll tell you a closely guarded secret of our island. You did rescue my beautiful strokes, after all. There exists a parallel world on Vortex Island...A world identical to this one in every way.
The female Brustache opens her back door.
FEMALE BRUSTACHE: And believe it or not, the entrance to this parallel world is in my beautiful back garden! It’s grand, right? Feel free to use it, my dears. You might find some clues there to solving your little whirlpool problem.
MARIRANA: I’ll be thunda-struck! A parallel world...identical in e’ery way?! That sounds like fun, suga! Let’s go!

+As soon as Mario boards the ship...
BAABEAUSSA: The whirpool be no more. Let’s go get that Mini Paint Starrrrr-
: Gwehehe! I’m afraid you won’t survive to even approach it, Captain Baabeaussa.
Everyone is confused.
BAABEAUSSA: Yar! Does someone mean to commit mutiny against this ship’s Captain and her people?
: In order to commit mutiny, you’d actually have to be part of the crew. Luckily for me...
A small sub rises from the sea. Inside the sub is none other than...
NEWCOMER! Ludwig
LUDWIG: I’m not! I heard what you did to General Guy, Mario, and I can’t say I approve. So, when I learned you were on your way to Fortune Island, I decided to sink low, and follow you- right for the perfect ambush! Say hello to the flagship of my fleet: the Ultranasty Hyper Battlesub of Doom! Gwehehe!
BAABEAUSSA: No-one ambushes Cap’n Baabeaussa, ye classically trained sea dog! If he’s here because of ye, Mario, then it’s yer job to deal with him!

BGM- Koopalings Rock
MINIBOSS TIME! LUDWIG
HP: 180 (Ludsub), 70 (Ludwig)
ATK: 6x3 (torpedos), 11x2 (walker stomp), 16 (magic wand)
DEF:
MARK: Koopaling
+Since General Guy already used the Ludship, Ludwig only uses the Super Ludsub submarine before going solo for his Recut battle.
+Due to the changes to the Thing system, Ludwig has a pattern where he jumps on the ship with new mecha-legs, stays, dives, ad nauseum (ie Land, Land, Sea). He also doesn’t dodge reflected missiles in this version.
+However, thanks to his sub’s new mecha-legs, he can still launch missiles on land.


+After defeating Ludwig...
LUDWIG: I admit defeat! Even now, I’m glad I got to try this sub out on you. I guess I’ll continue researching that other priority in secret, especially with Junior taking away the Black Bills. See you later!
The Ludssub explodes, sending Ludwig flying.
BAABEAUSSA: Good work, Sailor Mario! You sent that Koopaling flying, gwahar!

+The ship approaches the Mini-Star.
BAABEAUSSA: All right...grab that thing, and let’s be on our way. We’re so close to Fortune Island, and the gold to help me fellow Vellbex...
HUEY: Right, Mario, let’s go! Yo ho ho!
LOUIS: Whoa, bro!
HUEY: No.
LOUIS: D’OH!
