The only thing that I’m going to spoil is that Pariki’s beloved Naydra A. doesn’t exist, and B. was completely A-OK! I also found a softlock in the final boss: if you press ZL at the start of the underwater intermission between the first and second phases, a target will appear on an invisible object. If you bind and pull on that object, the screen will black out and display a prompt to spam A, softlocking the game until it is closed and reopened.
