DQ9 Encyclopedia17. The Realm of the Mighty: the end of the story
Corvus defeated a first time (Palace of the Mighty)
- At Yggdrasil, accept the fygg it offers you, then board the Starflight Express: talk to Sterling, eat the fygg, talk to him again. Destination: the Realm of the Mighty.
- Final preparations: this is the last dungeon (Almar's Guides suggests level 43 to 50).
- On level 3, Goreham-Hogg; on level 8, Hootingham-Gore (then go east for chests before carrying on west).
- Jump into the purple pit at the end of the red carpet: it launches you higher up, where Goresby-Purrvis guards the door. Climb the glowing stairs: Corvus waits on the throne.

Your hero has been told by Celestria, daughter of Almighty Zenus, the Grand Architect, that in order to stop Corvus, he must become mortal by eating a fygg born of all the gratitude in the hearts of the mortals he has helped on his travels.
Resolved to pursue Corvus to the Realm of the Almighty, your hero has eaten a fygg in order to become mortal. However, nothing appears to have happened. Sterling has suggested that the metamorphosis from Celestrian to mortal may take some time.
Your hero has travelled to the Realm of the Almighty aboard the Starflight Express in pursuit of Corvus. But the heavenly domain has undergone a terrifying transformation...
Your hero pursued Corvus through the evil-ridden Realm of the Mighty — the once-heavenly Realm of the Almighty — to the Palace of the Mighty, where he had enthroned himself. Though overpowered by your hero in battle, Corvus was not completely defeated, and escaped.
Corvus defeated (end of the story)
- Corvus flees. Go back down through the red double doors: on the path of light, you fall into the middle of the realm.
- Heal and sort out your items: touch the big red orb in the middle. Barbarus, then Corvus, with no break in between.
- Watch the credits to the end before saving: you find yourself at Alltrades Abbey, by the shining tree.

Corvus The game's own summary
Corvus is mustering his strength at the heart of the evil-ridden Realm of the Mighty. He summoned the black dragon, Barbarus, to destroy your hero, but in the ensuing battle, your hero overpowered the evil fiend.
Corvus was defeated, and rose to the heavens with his lost love Serena, who had found him at last. Their purpose fulfilled, the Celestrians ascended to join the ranks of the stars. Your hero, however, remains in the mortal realm, no longer able to see his friends Sterling and Stella. A new era has begun...
