Monuments are objects that appear in the Sonic Boom series. They are ancient defense mechanisms located around Bygone Island.
Description[]
The monuments resemble large stone towers with oversized caps on top of them (referred to as "balloons") which hold several gun turrets underneath them. Three of them can be found in the following locations around Bygon Island:
- East of the archway starting point of Bygone Island
- West of the Unnamed Village, on Koko Beach
- On the island in the northern area of Coral Bay
The monuments serve as an ancient defense for Bygone Island. When activated, their balloons are release and will float into the sky, giving them an ideal position from where to use their weapons against invaders. Meanwhile, the towers produce a pillar of light connecting with their balloons.
Overview[]
One of the monuments activated.
IN Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric, the monuments play a role in a side quest given handed out by Perci. After retrieving the Verdant Crystal from Slowpoke Isle, Perci will enlist Team Sonic to activate the monuments to earn her trust.
To complete the mission, the player has to go to each of the three monuments. The monuments have rotary walls that need to be moved in order to activate the tower. To do so there are three Enerbeam latches that, when pulled, will turn the tower walls to reveal three green Buttons. Once all three Buttons on a monument are pressed, the monument will then detach its balloon and send it flying into the sky. The ground-bound monument, on the other hand, will emit a beam of light connecting both fragments. After activating all three monuments, the player can return to Perc to claim a Power Glyph as a reward.
Trivia[]
- Perci regards them as "ancient monuments". Whether she means they were constructed by the Ancients or to be taken literally, is unconfirmed.
