The Bergsons paid a steep price just to keep the Mountain God appeased. Every couple generations, his corruption threatened the world and he demanded a blood sacrifice in the form of a newborn in order to not destroy everything. This felt wildly unsatisfying to me as a player who learned about everything that Ou had done out of jealousy. And yet, after completing the final fight, the story ends with Ou being forgiven. The Bergsons had received the blessings of the spirits they had freed, the world was slowly falling to the corruption, and Rae-Dana was still nowhere to be found. After all we learned of Ou and his story, there didn’t seem to be an option other than to take him out at the end of the game.

Ou has a variety of attacks, but is fairly easy to hit depending on the character you’ve chosen. The final fight consists of three phases, the first being the most difficult. The open a portal to where Ou is, and they realize the only option is to fight. They decide to bring Ou’s wrath upon themselves so that their family can remain whole. The current Bergson family decides that their newborn is too high a price to pay to appease Ou, and so they refuse to place the baby on the sacrificial alter. So he enacts a toll on the descendants of Rea Dana in the form of one of their kids. I wont do into too many details so that yall can experience the story for yourself, but the bottom line is that his corruption stems from jealousy.

By the end of the game, there are only a couple characters who are left to protect the household as the rest of the family delves deeper into the caverns in order to free the three spirits. But each of them wants to do their part to save the world. Admittedly, each character is not as fleshed out, for instance, Lucy seems to just want to fight things and set them on fire. Kevin, the youngest, is trying to fill his older brother’s shoes and help protect his family while his brother is gone. The cool thing about it is that each character is given a different personality and reason for wanting to fight. The interesting thing, and what sets Children of Morta apart is that you unlock family members to play as while you progress through the story.
