Page 1: Observations
''Every season, a fresh and beautiful female wild onion is selected by her peers to lead the patch. The chosen one, filled with confidence in her own beauty, becomes elegant, noble, and queen-like in every respect. There are some who theorize that, to preserve her beauty, the onion queen becomes wary, fearing injury. However, judging by their undiminished propensity for violent behavior, the wise observer might question the veracity of this theory.''

Page 2: On the Subject of Names
''Why is it that we use the name of a certain vegetable to refer both to those who excel and also those without experience in the ways of the world? It is a well-known fact that all heroes in all tales disliked vegetables as children. Their legend begins with their overcoming of this weakness, and then continues with a journey filled with hardships. That noble vegetable, the onion, lives on as a symbol of hardships overcome, and as the mark of a true hero.''

Battle
To spawn the Onion Queen, the player must clear out all enemies in "Ice Field of Clearsight" area in the Feywood. The Onion Queen will spawn with the other four Mandragora-class enemies. As long as the player doesn't leave the Feywood, the Onion Queen will be what respawns.

Onion Queen is one of the few enemies in the game that can reach a level of up to 99. At this level, all physical attacks will be nullified, and only magic attacks can hurt it.
