![]() Surprisingly, it is not uncommon in the slightest for real living organisms to build up strength as they rest, so being placed in a deep sleep for over a century would not be far fetched as a source of built up strength Merga could use. However, there is still the question of how she had enough energy to start swimming to begin with. With the knowledge that Merga could survive the pressures of how deep underwater she was, her being able to escape by swimming upwards is proven plausible. ![]() Official Art Of Merga Escaping Her Crystal Prison By: Dan Taylor However, surviving pressures this deep was only part of how Merga could have survived. That said, it is a safe bet that a combination of compressible lungs, smaller inner ears, and a streamlined body with a powerful tail fluke make Merga surviving the pressures and swimming to the surface plausible. The parts of the inner ear are attached but work separately to do each job.” For land animals, this helps them stay balanced and allows them to hear as well as they do, but in the water, larger inner ears aren’t needed as much as underwater, animals move in all directions, so animals such as sea lions and dolphins have smaller inner ears to allow them to maneuver around in the water without disorientation. In the real world, according to an article of Inner Ears by, “The inner ear has two main functions. Seeing how Merga is a vertebrate, it would be reasonable to assume she has compressible lungs that allow her to hold her breath at these depths as well as small inner ears. How? To put it simply, real marine animals have a variety of adaptations that allow them to survive these levels of pressure such as compressible lungs, lung-like swim bladders, and smaller inner ears. That said, the specific location Merga was sealed in would not be one that a prisoner could escape from normally as being sealed deep underwater is much more deadly than one would think.Įven though Merga is feeling the weight of 20 Atmospheres with the depth she’s currently at, one important factor in her survival that is rather simple to figure out is that there are no shortage of animals in the real world who do the same with no issues at all. Little does Team Lilac and their allies know, this victory and new beginning for the Avalicians came with a consequence as Merga's Crystal Prison, hidden deep in the ocean near Parusa, is shattered.” It doesn’t take an expert to know that this mess up was the instigator of the events of ‘Freedom Planet 2’ either. What is clear, however, is that “100 years later, in the wake of Lord Brevon's defeat, the Kingdom Stone is destroyed along with the Dreadnought, transforming into a Crystalline Vortex afterwards. With this bit of history shown, it can be explained why Merga was sealed off, but why she got sealed in that crystal and specifically off the coast of Parusa is still unclear. As a result of her ideals and possible warmongering, she was sealed in a crystal prison that was locked by the Kingdom Stone's power, and hidden deep in the ocean off the coast of the Island Chain, Parusa.” Thankfully, this information was already shared as, according to Merga’s History Page on Avalice Archives, “Over 100 years ago, during Avalice's oldest and deadliest war, Merga was bioengineered to be the perfect warrior, making her ruthless and power hungry as she fought in said war. That said, take a deep breath and prepare to dive into the depths of Merga’s survivability.īefore the details on Merga’s methods of surviving the depths of the Avalician Seas are covered, one must first understand the context of how Merga even ended up down there. With this in mind, it wouldn’t be unreasonable to say that there are plenty of cases where these unanswered questions are not hard to speculate answers for. ![]() For instance, why wasn’t she crushed by the intense pressures underwater? How did she have enough energy to swim? How did she manage to get to the surface without drowning? While the game may answer questions on how Merga got trapped in the depths of the ocean near Parusa and why she was sealed off, there are still numerous questions that will be left in the dark about Merga’s return. Case in point, Merga’s Awakening and rise to the surface. However, there is naturally an abundance of potential information that has been left out alongside the information shared. With more and more information on ‘Freedom Planet 2’ getting leaked and its release date, sometime in Spring of 2022, being confirmed, there have been sneak peeks of characters, plot points, and even gameplay, showcasing elements that will add to the context that will be covered in FP2. ![]() Greetings, Freedom Planet Amino, and welcome to the last ‘Freedom Planet Talks’ Episode of 2021. ![]()
