As mayor, Mari helped the village grow to new bounds, and all of the villagers began to overly rely on her. However, when [[Heather]] goes missing and the [[Color]] began to drain from the world, Mari watched as a revived Wilfre kidnapped most of the villagers and drained the village of its color. Mari, along with the remaining villagers, escaped onto [[Turtle Rock]] and sail to [[Watersong]], where she met [[Mayor Rose]]. Mari empathizes with Rose's fears of inadequacy, and after saving Watersong from Wilfre, she vanished away from the other Raposa. In reality, Mari had defected to join Wilfre in draining the color, so that the Raposa world could live on forever. However, Mari is swayed back to the Creator's side when Jowee refuses to join Wilfre, even after learning the truth about [[Mike]]. Mari lead the Raposa realm in a prayer for the Hero, and eventually, asked the Creator to wake up Mike.

Mari lead the Raposa realm in a prayer for the Hero, and eventually, asked the Creator to wake up Mike.

Four years after Mike awoken, Mari is still running Rapoville as mayor, and she had asked [[Watersong]], [[Lavasteam]], and [[Galactic Jungle]] to construct districts in Rapoville. But, Mari received word from a twice-revived, [[Shadow]]less Wilfre that the [[Human]] realm was in danger, so she asked the Creator for another Hero, giving it the [[Book of Imagination]] that Wilfre had given her. Mari would act as a point of connection for both Mike and the Hero as they travelled between Rapoville and [[Belleview]] in their quest to stop [[Aldark]]'s scheme. After Aldark's defeat, Mari and Jowee are warned that Aldark's plans were much more sinister, and that he would be coming back. Some time later, Jowee proposed to Mari, and the two are engaged.

=={{Icon|BigHeart}} Personality==

Mari is a determined and strong willed [[Raposa]], being one of the last Raposa to hold onto her faith in the [[Creator]]. However, Mari is shown to have low-self confidence, not believing that she can be a good [[Mayor (Position)|mayor]] for her people. Despite this self-doubt, Mari puts on a brave face for the Raposa and is a good leader, despite her doubts. Although her desire to help her villagers was manipulated by [[Wilfre]] to sway her to his side at one point, Mari has proven that she only acts in what she believes to be her villager's best interest.

Some time that night, Mari encounters Wilfre by some means unknown to the player. During this encounter, Wilfre takes Mari to the [[Hall of Darkness]] and shows her what he had learned to get her help. Thanks to the power of the Shadow, Wilfre had learned that the Raposa world was directly linked to the subconscious of Mike. Mike was currently in a coma, and if he woke up, their world would be destroyed. Thus, Wilfre began taking the color from the world in an attempt to keep Mike comatose. Mari was swayed by his argument for the Raposa realm, so she decided to defect to his side.

For the rest of the game, Jowee hunts for Mari, only seeing her two times before the game's climax. Once in [[Lavasteam]], watching her enter an uncolored [[Mine Cart Mayhem]]. However, Jowee is unable to catch up to her. Mari is next seen inside [[Jowee's Room]] on Turtle Rock, searching for the Book of Life. Jowee walks in and tells her that he held onto it, and he gives it back to Mari. To his shock, Mari begins ripping pages out of the Book of Life, running outside and jumping into one of Wilfre's portals with it.
