At the start of the Fell Xenologue, Nel and Nil summon Alear into their world and ask for their help, as all 3 venture into a quest where they recover the seven Emblem Bracelets to save their version of Elyos.

Endings

Stoic Dragon Nel
Nel settled down to a quiet life in Lythos. She helped the new monarch on occasion, but largely kept to herself.
Not wanting to frighten the "little ones," she assumed her dragon form only in times of great need. Future generations knew her as a guardian dragon of Lythos.

Divine Dragon Alear & Stoic Dragon Nel
Alear became the new Divine Dragon Monarch. His/Her bonds with the rulers of each nation resulted in lasting peace.
Though occasionally stern, Nel's support for the new monarch was constant and full of love. She was known for generations as a guardian dragon of Lythos.

Flavor text

Meet some of the Heroes entries

Nel: Stoic Bride
Nel is a dragon who came from another Elyos, and she's joining us for the bridal festival. She's all dressed up and ready to get the festivities started!	Here she is in her white dress, which is complemented by the clear-blue color of her sash and skirt. What a great way to channel her cool, determined demeanor!	She also has red and blue anemones in her hair, around her neck, and in her dragonstone bouquet. Red and blue—that makes me think of Alear! I wonder if there's a connection here…	Nel says she has no time for weddings, but I hear there's someone whom she'd love to show her dress to. Whomever they may be, I'm sure they'd make a wonderful suitor!
