Hearing about how they must travel to the Ginso Tree, Forlorn Ruins and Mount Horu in order to restore the Elements, Ori travels forth with the determination to save their home.ĭuring the journey to restore the Element of Waters, Ori encounters Gumo, a member of the Gumon race who had become corrupted by Nibel's decay. Sein tells Ori that the Spirit Tree's light is now inside them and that the fate of the forest now rests on their shoulders. She stole Sein from the Spirit Tree's branches and disrupted the balance of the three Elements of Light, throwing Nibel into chaos. It is here that Ori learns why Nibel began to decay: during the Light Ceremony that was intended to call Ori back home, the Spirit Tree and Ori's kin were attacked by a malevolent force, Kuro. Sein becomes Ori's guide and support from that point onward and both travel to the Spirit Tree himself. They find out that this light is Sein, the eyes and source of the Spirit Tree's light. Sensing that his child had fallen, the Spirit Tree uses the last of his strength and light to revive Ori, ultimately starting the game.Īfter being revived, Ori travels through the Sunken Glades and encounters a mysterious light. Upon their death, thousands of tiny white flowers grow and chase away the cloud of darkness, revealing that Ori had nearly made it to the Spirit Tree. They trudge aimlessly forward into withering darkness, each step growing more and more difficult, until Ori falls from exhaustion and draws one last breath. As they journey deeper into the decaying forest, Ori becomes very weak without food or the supporting light of the Spirit Tree. Ori decides to leave their lifelong home shortly after, with no reason to stay now that the only parent they ever knew was dead. Realizing that Naru had died of starvation in an act of selflessness for them, Ori lays down on her body, devastated by the loss. Ori tries to wake her up, but with no avail. Ori eventually returns to the cave and offers Naru the fruit he has found. After shaking it down to the ground, Ori makes their way back home, thinking back on the memories from before the forest decayed. After Naru lets Ori take the last piece for themselves and realizing that they would both starve without more food, Ori sets out into the barren wasteland and discovers untouched fruit on a high branch of a tree. Naru unsuccessfully attempts to find more, but it is near impossible due to the slow decay of the forest. Unaware that what they witnessed would eventually lead the Nibel's ruin, Ori and Naru slowly eat their supply of fruit until only a single piece is left. Naru, for reasons that are not clear, picks up Ori and rushes inside of the cave. However, before they can make it inside, Ori sees the Spirit Tree ablaze with light, calling for them to return. After making it to the other side at night time and enjoying the fruit in the quietude of night, Ori carries some fruits in their arms and heads back to their cave to store it for later. With their nearby fruit trees running low on fruit, Ori and Naru spend the day working together to build a bridge across a long stretch of water, gaining access to more plentiful specimens. Some time later, Ori awakens to a scenic summer day. Naru, seeing the small creature as one who needs maternal care, takes Ori into her embrace and acts as their adoptive mother. Upon landing in the foliage, Ori is "born" into their iconic spirit. Naru, who had been sitting out in the storm, sees the glowing leaf float by her and immediately investigates. At this point, Ori has the form of a glowing leaf and is carried away from their father in the winds of the storm. Ori's story begins on the night of the Great Storm, a powerful weather event that rips them away from the Spirit Tree's branches before he was born. In general, Ori is incredibly altruistic and chooses to focus on the well being of the world around them before their own needs. Ori is also very forgiving and kind-hearted, willing to help those who have entered the darkness. But as the story goes on, Ori's character shows a massive amount of determination even in the face of death itself, Ori never once gives up hope. Throughout the prologue sequence, it is seen that Ori's personality is akin to that of a young child, being very innocent and dependent on their caregiver. Ori's nature is largely up to the player, but they do have some distinct personality traits. Their name is of Hebrew origin, literally meaning "my light". Ori's feet have small white hooves, as seen in their 3D model sheet. They have two short horn-like antennae on top of their head, and underneath them there are larger ears, which droop when Ori is unhappy or weak. Ori is a small white creature with a similar stance to a human or a bunny and has a cat-like tail and large black eyes with white pupils. 3 As seen in Ori and the Will of the Wisps.
