Lush Woods (モリモリの森^?, Morimori no Mori) is the tenth stage in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. It is the final stage in Earth World.

Story

After Tibby and the player pass the Gatekeeper Trio's trials at The Third Gate, they finally reach Lush Woods, where the Green Tower, properly known as the Lush Tower, can be found. Here they meet Trey, who has been guarding the tower for a long time, and agrees to help Tibby reach Heaven World by having him and the player climb the tower, clearing Rhythm Games, namely Spaceball, Dog Ninja, Hole in One, Sumo Brothers and Lush Remix, in order to restore the flow to the tower, and thus activate its power. Clearing Lush Tower is commemorated with a Badge.

Using the power of the Lush Tower, Tibby rides a beam of green light up into the sky, but this is not enough to reach Heaven World. Trey informs him that they need a rainbow of power for that, after which the six towers appear:

• Honeybee Tower, guarded by Boondog's tribe.
• Machine Tower, guarded by Dieter's tribe.
• Citrus Tower, guarded by Shep's tribe.
• Donut Tower, guarded by Donna's tribe.
• Barbershop Tower, guarded by Hairold's tribe.
• Songbird Tower, guarded by Eglantine's tribe.

After clearing them, Tibby has enough power to return to Heaven World. The story appears to be finished, however, Tibby sends a letter to the player saying there's trouble in Heaven World, asking for their help. Clearing Earth World is commemorated with a Badge.

Dialogue

Intro

	Trey
Hey. You made it. That's outstanding.

	Trey
Been a loooong time since anybody made it out this far.

	Tibby
Look! It's the Green Tower!!

	Trey
Yeah, you made it, li'l dude.

	Trey
It's actually called Lush Tower, but whatever.

	Trey
Dunno who named it, though... It's been here forever.

	Trey
My, like, tribe or whatever has been guarding it.

	Tibby
If I climb to the top, do you think I can get to Heaven World?

	Trey
Oh, wow. Wild.

	Trey
So, check it out...

	Trey
The elder-guys say that the tower can guide us to heaven.

	Trey
It's some old prophecy or something.

	Tibby
I knew it! Just like Mom said!

	Trey
Hey, I just had a killer idea.

	Trey
You get climbing.

	Trey
Get yourself all the way to the top of the tower.

	Trey
Then, I'll totally awaken the hidden power of Lush Tower.

	Trey
And that power will take you straight to Heaven World.

	Trey
What, seriously? That's great!

	Trey
Sorry to be a downer, but there is a catch...

	Trey
You gotta bring the groovy flow back to the tower!

	Tibby
...

	Trey
You, uh, don't look like you were surprised by that...

	Trey
Cool. You got this.

	Trey
Just take one step at a time and get climbing. Don't give up.

	Trey
And remember to have fun, too!

	Trey
Flow comes more easily when you're having fun.

	Trey
All right. Good luck, li'l dude.

	Tibby
...

	Tibby
We finally made it to the tower!

	Tibby
My heart's beating so fast...

	Tibby
I'm almost home!

	Tibby
Climbing up this tower may be tough, but...

	Tibby
will you stay and help me just a little longer?

	Tibby
Let's we go, amigo!

	Tibby
All right! Next stop, the top of the tower!

The story continues in Lush Tower itself, and continues after it is cleared.

End (A)

	Tibby
Yes, yes, yes!

	Tibby
We finally got all the way to the top of Lush Tower!

	Trey
Hey, good work, li'l dude!

	Trey
You've got some sweet flow there.

	Trey
And Lush Tower looks groovier than I've ever seen it!

	Tibby
Great. So, can you awaken the hidden power like you said?

	Trey
Totally. All right, get ready!

	Trey
Yooooooo!

	Trey
Like, spirits of the forest... listen to my words and stuff.

	Tibby
This is a ritual?

	Trey
You know it!

	Trey
I'm gathering good juju from all the other trees around.

	Trey
Then I'll just pour it right into Lush Tower!

	Trey
That did it! The tower is awake!

	Tibby
So this is it...

	Trey
Tibby? Something wrong?

	Trey
This is what you wanted, right?

	Tibby
...

	Trey
Time to go, li'l dude! All aboard for Heaven World!

	Trey
Stand still and close your eyes...

	Trey
Let yourself kinda melt into the power of the tower!

	Tibby
...

	Tibby
I'm finally going home...

Farewell

...It's time for us to say good-bye.

Hey, why the long face? Lighten up!

We've come a long way together...

and I want to thank you. You've been amazing.

Saying good-bye is never easy.

But I... I'm not gonna cry! Because...

We're going to see each other again.

I'm sure of it.

Well, I have to go now.

...Take care, I guess.

So long!

The Farewell cutscene plays at this point, showing the game's credits as Tibby rides the green beam of light. However, the power of Lush Tower on it's own is not enough, and Tibby ends up falling down again.

Narration (Farewell)

Hmm. What happened there?

I guess no one ever knows what the future will hold.

I am honestly surprised at this turn of events.

I think I spilled a bit of coffee.

At any rate...

It looks like the story may continue a little longer.

Ah--looks like Tibby is waking up.

I'll just sit back and watch the rest of the story.

End (B)

	Trey
...Hey! Li'l dude!

	Trey
You OK, Tibby?

	Trey
You had me worried there!

	Tibby
...Owie. I got a bump on my head.

	Tibby
Wait--where am I?

	Tibby
Did I make it to Heaven World?

	Trey
Sorry, dude. This isn't Heaven World.

	Tibby
Oh, yes! I remember now!

	Tibby
I fell...again.

	Tibby
But...why?

	Tibby
I used the tower's power like you told me...

	Trey
Yeah, you totally did! Hmm...

	Trey
Maybe...you didn't have quite enough power?

	Tibby
What do you mean?

	Trey
Maybe, and I'm just spit- balling here...

	Trey
Lush Tower by itself doesn't have the power you need.

	Trey
Not enough to get you all the way to Heaven World, anyway.

	Tibby
What?!

	Tibby
After all I've been through? AAAARGGHH!

	Trey
Hang on, li'l dude! Chill out for a sec and listen.

	Trey
Ol' Trey has you covered.

	Trey
There's another legend around here that might help you.

	Tibby
ANOTHER legend?!

	Trey
Yeah, we've got tons of 'em.

	Trey
My granddad used to tell me about this one.

	Trey
Lessee... I remember him saying something like...

	Trey
"One who relies only on the green will...

	Trey
soon bump his head on something."

	Tibby
You couldn't have remembered this earlier?

	Trey
Wait, there's more! "But one should never give up...

	Trey
To open the path to heaven...

	Trey
one must collect a rainbow of power."

	Trey
Ugh, hang on... How did the rest go?

	Trey
Got it! "To gain such power...

	Trey
one must awaken six towers' worth of power...

	Trey
in yellow, aqua, orange, blue, red, and purple.

	Trey
Awaken those six powers and focus them on Lush Tower!

	Trey
Only then will your wish come true...

	Trey
and you shall never bump your head again."

	Tibby
Your grandfather was... thorough.

	Trey
Not done! "And, finally, little Trey...

	Trey
I will teach you the spell to unlock the six towers.

	Trey
Flow-flow-flah-flah♪ Flow-lo-LA-LA!♪"

	Trey
That's it.

	Trey
That's the whole legend- dealie.

	Tibby
The secret power of six more towers...

	Tibby
And if I awaken those powers, I get to go home, right?

	Trey
You got it.

	Trey
You just gotta chant the spell.

	Trey
You ready?

	Tibby
Flow-flow-flah-flah♪ Flow-lo-LA-LA♪

A small cutscene showing the six towers rising plays at this point.

End (C)

	Tibby
It's true! The six towers actually appeared!

	Trey
What'd I tell you?

	Trey
Lemme tell you one thing before you go climbing those towers.

	Trey
Just like Lush Tower here, each tower has guardians.

	Trey
They've all got a tribe that's been watching over it forever.

	Tibby
Six tribes, huh?

	Trey
That's right. None as good looking as mine, of course!

	Trey
To wake up each tower...

	Trey
you're gonna need help from its guardian tribe.

	Tibby
But how will I get their help? I'm just a kid!

	Trey
You gotta earn their trust...

	Trey
by restoring the groovy flow to their towers!

	Tibby
Right. Silly me.

	Trey
You look like you saw that coming.

	Trey
ANYway...

	Trey
go wake up the six powers!

	Trey
I got a feeling that each tower...

	Trey
is filled with powered-up rhythm games lying in wait.

	Trey
You're gonna need ALL your flow to get through 'em!

	Tibby
All right. I think I've got it.

	Tibby
I wonder which tower I should start with...

The story continues with the player and Tibby going through each of the six towers in any order they like, then after they are all cleared.

End (Rainbow)

	Trey
You totally did it!

	Trey
I can feel the power just flowing from each tower...

	Trey
Right into Lush Tower.

	Trey
And they'll make the rainbow of power!

	Trey
Li'l dude, you will totally make it to Heaven World this time.

	Trey
Go see your friends and family.

	Tibby
Thanks for everything, Trey!

	Trey
No problem. I'm gonna get going now...

	Trey
With all the ancient prophecies comin' true and whatnot...

	Trey
I should probably tell my grandpa he was totally right.

	Trey
Take it easy!

	Tibby
He's gone. It's just you and me now...

	Tibby
I can't thank you enough.

	Tibby
I definitely couldn't have made this trip without you.

	Tibby
If I'd been alone all this time...

	Tibby
I would have given up ages ago.

	Tibby
Especially when I bumped my head so hard. Remember that?

	Tibby
Looking back...

	Tibby
in the hard times...

	Tibby
and the happy ones...

	Tibby
You stuck with me all the way. I'll always be grateful.

	Tibby
Even though I'm going home to Heaven World...

	Tibby
we must...

	Tibby
we really must...

	Tibby
stay friends forever!

	Tibby
Let's we go, amigo!

Following this is the To Heaven World cutscene, which contains the full credits for Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

Narration (To Heaven World A)

*sigh*

Looks like Tibby finally made it back home. I'm glad.

Thank you for helping him.

It's great to see how you've mastered the idea of "flow."

I hope you find that it benefits you in everyday life.

I hope to see you ag--

Wait.

What's that? Over there.

Narration (To Heaven World B)

Looks like a letter from Tibby.

How nice of him!

Let's find out how he's doing back in Heaven World.

Narration (To Heaven World C)

Dear friends, I am back in Hevven World, safe and sound...

and I owe it all to you!

But...

I'm back home and all, but there's something wrong with Hevven World!

It's all different from when I was here. It's dark and gloomy and people look so sad...

Can I ask you a favor?

Can you come to Hevven World and help me fix it?

Don't worry about travel arrangements--I've got it all set up.

If you bring this letter with you, you can ride the rainbow all the way up here.

I'll be waiting! Let's we go, amigo! -Tibby

Narration (To Heaven World D)

Hmmm...

I can't say I saw this coming.

You just never know how things will turn out, huh?

That said...

I guess the story will continue a little longer.

I imagine this will be the last bit, though.

I suppose I'll go make another pot of coffee.

I hope you enjoy the rest of the story.

The story continues in Heaven World.

Trivia

• The seven towers are placed in such an order that their colors from left to right form a rainbow.
• During both of Tibby's ascents, a large lake can be seen behind Lush Woods.
