Biography

Magical Vacation

The students met Shallot at his house in Abos Village, wherein he told them about the unique characteristics of enigmas. According to him, magicians who performed enigma fusion were still in touch with their thoughts, but by drowning themselves in the enigmas' power, they essentially forfeited their hearts. He also remarked that enigmas would always exist, so long as someone in the universe was conscious of them.

After Magical Vacation

At some point, Shallot relocated to another pyrite colony on Erd atop the stone giant Tektos, in the village of Uponisbak. He spent the next several hundred years within Tektos's skull as he roamed the wastelands.

Magical Starsign

When met by the party, Shallot learned of their plans to reach Nova inside the sun. He told them that in order to enter the sun where Nova resided, they had to temporarily become ethreal so as to not burn alive, which was only possible by gathering the five millennium gummies. From there, he apprised the students of Craaken's teachings, claiming Craaken had attained forbidden knowledge of the universe. He then suggested they remain quiet, since Magnus Muzzleflash was searching for them outside. However, Tektos told them to unleash their magic and fight Muzzleflash head-on.

Fulfilling Tektos's request, Mokka unleashed his wild magic and drew Muzzleflash to the giant's cheekbone where a battle ensued. The students managed to win, but Space Police officers quickly altered Muzzleflash that there was strong gummy energy coming from Kahve Ruins. Finding the stone giant to no longer be of use, Muzzleflash prepared to ram through his body. Tektos was ready to fight back, despite Shallot's warnings that Muzzleflash's armor was impenetrable, and fired a powerful beam into the sky. Although the beam was powerful enough to completely vaporize Muzzleflash, it drained Tektos of all his power, causing the magic binding his body together to crumble into the sands below. In his final moments, he ordered Shallot to give the students his soul, the earth millennium gummy. Afterwards, Shallot told the students that despite the world being unreasonable, they must keep living. He escorted them back to their magic rocket, urging them to push on and follow their hearts.
