Star Piece (Super Mario RPG): Difference between revisions

Near the beginning of the events of ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'', [[Exor]] penetrates the Star Road prior to landing in the center of [[Bowser's Castle|Bowser's Keep]], thus shattering it into the seven Star Pieces. The Star Pieces fall from the sky and land in various spots across [[Mario World]]. [[Mario]]'s quest, in which he is aided by [[Mallow]], [[Geno]], [[Bowser]] and [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] revolves finding the seven Star Pieces to repair the Star Road, thus allowing [[wish]]es to continue coming true. At the same time, the [[Smithy Gang]] is on the hunt for them as well, hoping to prevent the power of wishes from returning, allowing them to fill the world with weapons.

The third Star Piece crashes deep within the [[Coal Mines]], triggering a cave-in. The cave-in causes [[Dyna and Mite]], who are playing in the mines at the time, to be trapped. The [[Mole (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)|citizens]] of [[Moleville]] attempt to rescue them, but fail. Eventually, Mario's group arrive in Moleville and are informed what happened. After venturing into the mines and receiving a [[Special Items (SMRPG)|Bambino Bomb]] for defeating Croco a second time, Mario's group is able to reach the room where the Star Piece had crashed into the rafters. It is unknowingly guarded by [[Punchinello]], who accidentally frees the Star Piece by setting off a [[King Bomb]], which crushes him upon summoning it. As Mario's group are covered in soot when the King Bomb detonates, the third Star Piece seemingly senses this predicament and restores the trio to their standard appearance after being collected. With the third Star Piece acquired, Mario's group soon find Dyna and Mite and are able to escape from the mines through the mine cart.
