Harvest Goddess (HM64)

The Harvest Goddess (女神さま) is a character in Harvest Moon 64. She serves a supporting role to Pete, able to grant blessings and aid when offerings are given.

Schedule
The Harvest Goddess resides in a pool known as the Goddess Pond, located in the woods on Moon Mountain near the Carpenter's Clearing. In order for her to appear, Pete must throw a vegetable or egg into her pond from the small bridge. Foraged items and those brought from store will not work. She will only appear between 9am-5pm.

Wishes
In return for the offering, the Harvest Goddess will grant one of three wishes once a day each day.
 * Weather: The day after tomorrow will be sunny.
 * Strength: The goddess will restore Pete's fatigue and stamina. If those are already full, she will give a Power Berry instead.
 * Love: The bachelorette with the highest affection for Pete gains +1 affection.

Events
Reviving the Vineyard

The Harvest Goddess plays a major role in the revival of the vineyard. This contributes to a perfect ending of the game and helps Pete if he is trying to woo Karen.

If Pete has a high affection with Duke, he will give them a special wine. If Pete has a high affection with the Harvest Sprites, they will talk about the special wine and Tree Spirit at the vineyard. By summoning the Harvest Goddess, she will wake the Spirit up and restore the Vineyard.

It should be noticed that triggering this event will end the day. At night on Fall 6, the Harvest Goddess will visit in a dream to say that the Spirit brought the Keifu fairies back to help the Vineyard's grapes. If Karen is at a yellow heart by Fall 7, she will bring Pete to the Vineyard in the evening to show the fairies, and Pete will get a photo in his album.

Trivia

 * It is worth noting that some Japanese references were overlooked. Although the church is presented as Christian and includes a cross, townspeople sometimes discuss the church and its religion in Shinto terms, such as referring to the existence of both a "god of the harvest" and a "god of business". This means that the Harvest Goddess is not the divine talked about in this game.
 * The Harvest Goddess is one of few characters who still can be normally found on festival days.
