Unlocking the Secrets of Edens Zero: The Crew's Ultimate Clue to Discovering the Enigmatic Mother
The Edens Zero crew embarks on a thrilling quest as they uncover the hidden Temple of the Mother Beacon, navigate the treacherous Red Cave, and unveil the long-awaited relics of Mother Excitement mounts as their next move brings them closer to realizing their far-fetched dream
After a daring escape from the Sakura Cosmos, the Edens Zero crew arrived on Planet Red Cave as their first stop in search of Mother. Ziggy had previously visited this fiery planet in his quest for the divine being. Despite being strange and uninhabited, the planet did not disappoint as the crew discovered a clue leading them closer to Mother's whereabouts.
The story of Edens Zero took a detour when the crew unexpectedly became involved in the Drakken Joe conflict. With this revelation, the series has finally regained its focus and is moving forward in the right direction. Now, Shiki is one step closer to unraveling the universe's secrets and finding the answers he seeks.
Temple of the Mother Beacon
The journey to find Mother was destined to be filled with difficulties and challenges, and the Temple of the Mother Beacon epitomizes this reality. Situated on the ocean floor of Planet Red Cave, the ancient shrine is believed to house a valuable treasure that can provide guidance to those searching for Mother. Nadia, an android protector, reveals that numerous explorers have ventured to the shrine in hopes of acquiring the treasure, but only a select few have succeeded.
The treasure rests deep within a cavern beneath the temple, and those who manage to navigate the treacherous cave will unlock the mysteries of the universe. Nevertheless, the cave is fraught with scorching heat emanating from the magma within. Beyond the wall of blazing flames lies the coveted treasure. Countless individuals have attempted to traverse the perilous cave, yet only a handful have ever triumphed.
Shiki’s Advance Through the Red Cave
After learning about the impending trial, Shiki and the others approached the challenge with determination. Much to their surprise, Shiki was unable to traverse the magma in one attempt, rendering his Gravity Ether useless against the intense flames. The scorching temperatures surpassed the heat-resistant capabilities of the Four Shining Stars, and Weisz's Arsenal suit faced similar difficulties, leaving the crew with no choice but to employ unconventional methods.
As a last-minute scheme concocted by Witch, the Edens Zero spaceship made a swift trip to Planet Bluegarden in search of an acquaintance - Laguna Husert. Despite his previous ties to the Element 4 and Drakken Joe, Laguna agreed to assist Shiki with his Water Ether, although the specific terms of their peculiar agreement are still undisclosed. This suggests the potential for Laguna to become a recurring character in the series and possibly even join the crew.
The Revelation of Mother’s Relics
With the combined power of Water Ether and the Witch's supreme elemental mastery, Shiki underwent a remarkable metamorphosis, transmuting into a fluid state while being shielded by a heat-resistant coating that safeguarded his shapeless form. Having been bestowed with a unique yet invaluable enhancement, Shiki harnessed his Gravity Ether to propel himself against the tumultuous currents of molten magma, ultimately traversing to the opposite end of the cavern where the elusive clue pertaining to the whereabouts of Mother eagerly awaited his arrival.
After boldly navigating the oppressive depths of the cave, Shiki arrives in a chamber saturated with enigmatic Ether. Suddenly, the Ether materializes at a specific point, unveiling a spectral apparition of Mother right before Shiki's eyes. In this ethereal encounter, an unfamiliar voice resonates throughout the room, emanating from none other than Mother herself. She reveals how a fragment of her existence once resided within this very space. Although the physical object associated with that fragment is long gone, remnants of her essence linger within the Ether-infused room.
The essence of Mother fades away, leaving Shiki with valuable knowledge. Mother advises Shiki to follow the guiding light, which will eventually lead him to her location. As Shiki absorbs the Ether, his Aquatic Breathing Lacrima transforms into a revered artifact. The temple's guardian reveals that objects infused with Mother's Ether become relics, scattered across the expanse of the cosmos. Discovering these relics can ultimately unveil Mother's existence, as each relic serves as a clue to her whereabouts.
The Edens Zero Crew’s Next Move
The discovery of relics provides the first lead in the search for Mother, giving the Edens Zero crew an idea of how to track down her location. Previously, the crew was aimlessly navigating through space, lacking a clear direction for their journey. However, with the introduction of relics, their objective becomes clear – to locate these scattered objects across the cosmos. It is highly likely that Shiki and the rest of the crew will now embark on a quest to retrieve as many relics as possible, as this offers their best chance of finding the all-powerful deity.
The existence of Mother's relics confirms the reality of this entity for the Edens Zero crew, as she was previously regarded as a mere legend. The pursuit of finding Mother appeared unrealistic and ludicrous to many, even among those aboard the Edens Zero. However, this revelation has solidified Mother's existence and has made Shiki's goal appear credible and foundational for the series.
