Editing Moonbrooke (section)

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
The opening cinematic of {{Dragon Quest II}} in the North American [[NES]] version allows players to witness the attack on Moonbrooke and the death of its [[King of Moonbrooke|king]]. This event sets up the quest for the rest of the game.

During the game, the ruins of Moonbrooke can be explored, which is now full of [[List of world map terrain in the Dragon Quest series#Poison Swamp|poisonous swamps]] and infested with monsters. It is not required that the player visit in order to complete the game; however, useful information can be gained regarding how to find the [[Princess of Moonbrooke]] and also the [[Mirror of Ra]] by speaking to the various ghosts of its citizens.

In the remakes, the number of poison swamp tiles are decreased, along with the amount of damage taken from them. The background music is no longer [[Fright in Dungeon|''Fright in Dungeon'']] and has been changed to ''[[Requiem]]''. If the [[Prince of Cannock]] dies in battle, he will become a living dead, which can be cured after returning to [[Moonahan]]. Killing any surviving soldiers will result in the ghost of that soldier possessing the Cannock prince. The surviving soldier in the basement will die and turn into a spirit after talking to him once, but will disappear after the defeat of [[Malroth]] or after recruiting the princess, even without ever interacting with him. After the player defeats [[Malroth]], they can bring the [[Princess of Moonbrooke]] here and speak to the ghost of her father for special dialogue.
====Treasures====
*Two empty treasure chests, perhaps previously housing pieces of [[Erdrick's armour]] (original only)
*[[Seed of life]] (basement, sand; remake only)
*[[Seed of magic]] (basement, floor; remake only)

===={{Monster}}s====
*[[Corpse corporal]]
*[[Cobra king]]
*[[Metal slime]]
*[[Smog]]

==={{DQI&IIHD}}===
The [[Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake|HD-2D Remake]] establishes more about the general layout of the castle. Obtaining the [[Mirror of Ra]] before coming to the castle for the first time will remove dialogue of the [[Prince of Cannock|Cannock Prince]] lamenting the horrifying situation and neither the spirits of the [[King of Moonbrooke|King]] nor [[Queen of Moonbrooke]] will appear. The background music will change from ''[[Requiem]]'' to ''[[Château]]'' after obtaining the [[Eye of Rubiss]], and reconstruction of the castle will begin with soldiers of [[Cannock]] and [[Midenhall]] pitching in. Monsters will no longer spawn. In the ending, the souls of the King and Queen appear in the sky to see the princess off.

{{Translation|'''Moonbrooke'''|ムーンブルク島|Mūnburuku shima|Moonbrooke island}} is the third major story island visited by [[Malroth (Character)|Malroth]] and the [[Builder (Dragon Quest Builders 2)|Builder]]. When they arrive, it is in the midst of a seemingly never-ending war with monsters, led by the monster [[Atlas]] and divided into three groups; the Hair Force (furry monsters), the Air Force (flying monsters) and the Scare Force (big, tanky monsters). While the overall layout of the castle ruins are the same as in {{Dragon Quest II}}, the geography of the island is vastly different.{{spoiler|start}}Instead of Moonbrooke having flower fields and [[Rendarak]] being a snowy wasteland, it is the opposite way around. When visiting Rendarak, the characters are surprised by this, seeing such lovely green plains which the [[King of Moonbrooke]] had described as "hell". Furthermore, the castle of [[Midenhall]] is where the [[Hall of Hargon]] should have been, alluding to the fact that the world is actually the fake [[Hall of Hargon|illusionary world]] [[Hargon]] summoned in an attempt to defeat the [[Prince of Midenhall|three]] [[Prince of Cannock|scions]] [[Princess of Moonbrooke|of]] [[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|Erdrick]].{{spoiler|end}}

====Plot====
For an extremely long time now, the kingdom of Moonbrooke has been fighting a never-ending war, as the [[Children of Hargon]] decree it. Although it seems counter-intuitive, the Children have ordered the soldiers to keep on fighting, even against their own monster troops, to ensue more chaos and destruction and despair.

When Malroth and the Builder arrive, they meet a soldier called [[Warwick]] (captain of the Moonbrooke Brigade of Guards), who is suspicious at first but immediately warms up to them and takes the two to a small shelter in a cave alcove. There, they meet [[Gerome]], [[Anessa]] (general of the Moonbrooke Brigade of Guards) and the [[King of Moonbrooke]]. They then learn that, 1) There is a prophecy that states that a Builder will save Moonbrooke from the never-ending war, and 2) That Anessa is poisoned. Gerome and the King are wary of the Builder at first (creation is outlawed and frowned upon as per the Children's rules) but when the Builder cures Anessa with an [[antidotal herb]], they slowly begin to change their minds. Afterwards, Warwick takes Malroth and the Builder and reclaims the the throne room (they quickly learn that 3) Moonbrooke castle is in ruins), which kick-starts the process of beginning to win the war. Anessa, unlike the other townsfolk, sticks stubbornly to her beliefs about the Children of Hargon, but permits building as from a tactical standpoint it is necessary to advance their positions.

During the events of Moonbrooke, there is word of a traitor amongst the townsfolk that occasionally sabotages weaponry and is heard talking to monsters at night. This is more of a sub-plot, as the main goal of the Builder is to rebuild the castle, create both physically and magically-damaging weaponry, and eventually to build the [[Kazapple cannon]] to take down Atlas. However, the traitor's actions lead to Malroth being imprisoned, which fractures the friendship between him and the Builder.{{spoiler|start}}When, eventually, the soldiers go to [[Rendarak]], it is revealed that Warwick is the traitor. He dies alongside his master, a Wrecktor.{{spoiler|end}}

After Atlas is defeated, the Builder returns to the [[Isle of Awakening]] with some soldiers of Moonbrooke. The events that transpired in Moonbrooke lead to Malroth storming off on his own, and lead to the events of [[Malhalla]].
