01-14. A Proposal to Remember

Now, for the crazy news. Max wanted to propose to Kirby when he had some time off from work. Unfortunately, his timing really sucked. Oh, there were some beautiful romantic moments, but...

First of all, it started pouring down rain right after he invited Kirby out. He had thought about proposing to her in front of the house they would live in or by the waterfalls, but the rain spoiled any outside conversations. He settled on the Butterfly Pavilion.

They arrive:
Maxwell proposes:
She accepts:
Then...the romance turns into a horror movie! Max gets a notice that the Foreboding Full Moon had arrived! Yes, Max proposed on the dawning of the Full Moon. And guess who gets zombified.
I couldn't believe the game did this to Kirby! Then I was just ROTFL. Not sure how long zombification stays in effect, but I decided to tell the story with how Max would react.

Max rushes to the elixir clerk and begs him for help:
The store didn't have any Cure Elixirs, but did have an alchemy book and the necessary ingredients. Lucky for Max he's a Fast Learner!
Level 2 in Alchemy and he starts researching. Manages to make the Cure Elixir he needs.
He tracks Kirby down and throws the elixir at her:
And the cure works!
