Serena

Serena (めがみさま, Goddess) is the fairy of your town's fountain. She, like Farley before her, gives the player an axe upgrade. She is a chihuahua, a breed of dog.

Appearance
Serena is a solid white chihuahua with a white toga. She has large beady eyes and wears golden jewelery. On her head, she wears a veil. She wears gold earrings. She also has large pointed ears in front. She is oftentimes mistaken for an angel.

Getting Serena To see Serena, you must first unlock the fountain by donating 400,000 Bells (in addition to the 200,000 Bells that are needed for the extra bridge) to the Town Fund. Talk to Pelly to donate the bells. Then after the fountain is built, you must throw an axe into the fountain. To throw the axe, make a horizontal swipe across in front of you. Doing so will land the axe into the middle of the fountain. It should be noted that the day the fountain is opened Tortimer will be in the way so you cannot throw an axe into the fountain. Serena may come out and ask any combination of 3 different questions, which will lead to further questions. Usually she will appear dissapointed after you throw the axe in, after questioning you she may give you a gold axe, a silver axe, your basic axe back or she might just take your axe away from you. There is a statue of her in the center of the fountain in the City.

Getting the Silver/Gold Axe


Serena is very unpredictable and often gets mad when axes are thrown at her. Sometimes, she asks if she appears "goddess-y" and asks for your opinion. If you sweet talk Serena enough, she just might give you the axe. However, you may get the axe through telling the truth.

Sometimes, Serena has a sad face and asks "Why are you throwing axes at me? Do you hate me?". If you say yes, she might keep your axe or she might give you a gold axe so that you would like her. If you say no, she might get mad at you and throw the axe, tearing her favorite toga.

There are many other things that she may ask you every time you throw the axe in the fountain. She is very unpredictable and will either give you a gold/silver axe, give your axe back, or she can keep your axe. No matter what gender you are Serena will give you either axe if she wants to. Serena also is a chronic liar saying that she will give you a gold or silver axe but never seem to actually give it. Serena has a lot of axes at times, but other times she has "run out" of gold/silver axes.

She also asks, "Did you throw in a golden axe, or maybe it was a silver axe?", referencing an old story where a man drops his axe into a river and a spirit and in other stories a mermaid asks the same thing (The man told the truth and got both, but since Serena is how she is, it might not be the same if you do).

As a final question, Serena will sometimes ask the player if they want a "present". If the player says yes, Serena will ask them to pick a hand (saying no will result in her taking your axe). If the player says Right, Serena may take your axe, return it or give you a Gold/Silver one. Picking Left has the same function, but Serena might only give you a Silver Axe.
