List of All Alternate Island Endings

Ballymolloy Ending: Wooden Doll

Give the Doll to Patrick
Give Wooden Doll to Patrick ・ Reinforcements arrive before the battle with Maeve, just as she wanted.
・The villagers will apologize to Maeve before battle.
Don't Give the Wooden Doll ・No reinforcements arrive which angers Maeve.

During your adventure in Ballymolloy, you'll be able to give Patrick the Wooden Doll. Your first choice whether or not to give the Doll to Patrick will affect the outcome of the quest, as well as its rewards.

Should You Give the Wooden Doll to Patrick?

Seed of Resilience Reward

Refuse the Doll
Let Patrick Keep the Doll ・Patrick thanks you and gives you a Seed of Resilience instead.
Take the Doll Back ・You receive the Wooden Doll back, which does nothing after the quest.

The Seed of Resilience that Patrick gives can be Missable if you accept the wooden doll from Patrick before returning home.

Seeds of Resilience, however, can be obtained through other means, with this choice potentially locking you out of one of many Seeds of Resiliences only.

When and Who Should Use Seeds?

Vogograd Ending: Stone Tablet

Vogograd Elder Dialogue Option
Good Ending ・The truth about the village is preserved
・The monument changes in the present
・You receive Pretty Betsy
Bad Ending ・The stone tablet is destroyed
・The false history remains
・No additional reward

In Vogograd, you must decide whether to return the stone tablet to the elder in the past or present.

Giving it to the elder in the past leads to a more positive outcome and rewards you with Pretty Betsy. Giving it to the present mayor results in the tablet being destroyed and locks you out of that reward.

Nottagen Ending: Fighting Wiggles

Yes ・ Wiggles helps protect the town
・Nottagen survives in the present
・Recommended outcome
No ・Nottagen is destroyed in the present
・ Some items and Nottagen (Present) shops become unavailable.

If you repeatedly choose “Yes” during dialogue, you will fight Wiggles. Defeating Wiggles results in Nottagen’s destruction in the present timeline.

Choosing “No,” or losing the battle, allows the town to be restored. All Nottagen (Present) shops and some items, except for the Mini Medals and the trophy Worst. Town. Ever., become missable when the town turns into ruins.

Cathedral of Blight Ending: Kiefer Rejoining

Let Him Join ・Joins as a fifth support member
・ Participates in the final boss battle
・ Unlocks additional epilogue scene
Don't Let Him Join ・Final dungeon cleared with four members
・ No additional epilogue event

During the Cathedral of Blight event, you can decide whether to bring Kiefer into the final dungeon. If you choose to bring Kiefer, he will assist during the final dungeon and appear in the final boss fight. An additional epilogue event also becomes available.

Declining means proceeding with a standard four-member party and missing the extra story content.
