Exposition: While the Hunter sails onto the first island of the game's setting already knowing that there's darkness over the land that needs purging, the Eagle Mother gives her and by extension players more in-depth knowledge of the intentions of the one responsible for that darkness (the Godslayer), as well as how to go about bringing light back to the land. Loyal Animal Companion: Quickly becomes one for the Hunter after she reincarnates into a regular eagle.


Unfortunately, she doesn't become gigantic again until she and the Hunter reach the Floating Isle, where the Godslayer ambushes them out of nowhere, turns her into a corrupted spirit like he did to her children, and forces her to become his Dragon during the Hunter's final confrontation with him. However, when the Godslayer makes his first onscreen appearance in the game to inflict his curse on her again (after the Hunter had just finished purifying her), she has no choice but to reincarnate into a regular eagle to survive it. The Eagle Mother definitely qualifies as one when the Hunter first meets her in a halfway cursed state. From there, she's commanded to both keep the injured Hunter from reaching the tower where the final battle is staged and, when that plan falls through, assist the Godslayer during the first phase of the Hunter's battle with him. The Dragon: She plays this role for the Godslayer after he turns her into a corrupted spirit towards the end of the game.It's especially horrific in her case, having spent the majority of the game being the Hunter's lone ally and guide. Brainwashed and Crazy: Much like her children before her, the Eagle Mother becomes a corrupted spirit towards the end of the game after being cursed by the Godslayer for a third time.Action Mom: Mother to the rest of the Tall Ones and fights alongside the Hunter to defeat the Godslayer.
