The two sneak into the castle as fighting is going on and attempt to open the vault door. Outside of the castle meanwhile, Wario and Waluigi are staring through the throne room's window, and plan on breaking into the castle and stealing Bowser's treasury. This only leaves Mario and Bowser, who begin battling with Peach cheering on. Yoshi then throws an egg at Jr., and pounces on him afterwards. Clown Car and shoots a cannonball at Luigi, knocking him away. Bowser calls upon Bowser Jr., who appears in his Jr. Bowser has kidnapped Peach, alongside Toad and Toadette, and Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi are ready for a final battle with him. Also, it's stated that the Crystal Stars kept the heroes from being cursed while the Stars were in the heroes' possession, and it's implied that the Black Chest Demons are the heroes, which would mean that one of the Crystal Stars was hidden in Rogueport.The beginning of the game opens at Bowser's Castle. Pretty sure it's confirmed in the game that it was hidden in Rogueport, with Grodus talking about the X-Nauts having found a Crystal Star in Rogueport.A third possibility would be that the Crystal Star never actually was hidden in the first place - it was always in Beldam's possession, and that's how the X-nauts managed to obtain it. It would make sense that the four heroes didn't manage to hide it in time before the curse hit.Īlternatively, the hiding spot might've actually been the Moon all along - it IS featured on the map, after all. So, there really only is one other option. And you'd think that they'd draw some attention, in such a small and remote village. Of course, one would expect that the seventh Crystal Star would be hidden in Fahr Outpost, but the natives never even mention the X-Nauts once. The place where the seventh Crystal Star was originally hidden is actually Rogueport itself.There are only two places featured on the Star Map where there is no Crystal Star to be found. note Okay, okay, it may've been misplaced aggression. And she secretly felt inferior to her, so she may've been planning on becoming the next Shadow Queen over Vivian or something.And the reason she was mean to Doopliss. She felt that her only purpose in life was to serve the Shadow Queen. She was the strongest out of the Shadow Sirens - possibly one of the thee strongest - and Beldam knew if she mistreated her like she did with Vivian, which would've caused a Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal, this could've very well screwed her over.The reason she worked so hard to revive the Shadow Queen was because of an inferiority complex. She couldn't talk and she was rather big, and so Beldam felt somewhat bad for her. And so, in order to make herself feel better and/or to get rid of the jealousy, she began bullying her.The reason she played favoritism with Marilyn was because one) she felt sorry for her. She was more powerful, prettier and probably had more people like her, In-Universe and out. The reason Beldam is the way she is.The reason she was mean to Vivian: She was jealous of her. If I recall correctly the "Mario" on stage in the credits is actually Doopliss.Not only that, but the first shadow in the credits is Luigi, not Mario.

Incidentally, the end credits somewhat support this theory, since Flurrie is shown on stage with Mario in the theatrical reenactment of "his" quest.

If you want, you're free to believe that nobody was hurt. And for that matter, Cortez eating the audience's souls, Lord Crump sucking the audience into a giant mecha and using them as cannon ammo, and the Shadow Queen absorbing the audience into her own body.However, somebody somewhere felt sorry for Luigi, putting in the Easter Eggs about Luigi's quest, and Mario can still "cosplay" as Luigi via badges.This explains why you have an audience cheering you on in the battles - it really is all just happening on a stage, and "Star Power" is part of the gimmick to keep the audience involved. The Thousand-Year Door is a theatrical reenactment of the real quest.The events of Thousand Year Door had been noted to be compiled into book form-or, if we want to WMG further, Luigi was the one who went on the adventure (as evidenced by his stories to Mario and the Super Luigi book series), but Executive Meddling in the universe where Paper Mario was published forced them to change the protagonist to Mario because they believed that nobody wanted to play a game with Luigi as the protagonist.
