Mary (DS)

Mary (マリヴィア Marivia) is a character in Harvest Moon DS and Harvest Moon DS: Cute. She is one of the eligible bachelorettes to court in DS.

Mary is unlocked after connecting DS and Cute to Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town and Harvest Moon: More Friends of Mineral Town via GBA connection.

Mary comes to Forget-Me-Not Valley from Mineral Town on Mondays to visit her best friend Lumina. Unlike other Mineral Town characters, Mary does not explore the Valley (except during heart events) and instead spends her time inside Romana's mansion.

Mary can only be given gifts on Mondays when she visits, making her much more difficult to court than the local bachelorettes. Her heart level is also invisible, unless the Love Bangle is equipped.

Marrying any Mineral Town bachelorette in DS will cause the game to end. After the credits finish rolling, players can resume from their last saved game.

Heart Events
Black Heart Event

Enter Lumina's bedroom between 8am and 11am on a Monday.

You will see Lumina in her room with another girl. Lumina introduces you to her best friend named Mary. Lumina tells Mary that you are a farmer and Mary comments that she knows a farmer in the town where she comes from too. Mary is interested in what you specialize in on your farm.

You can tell Mary that you either specialize in animals or crops. Mary asks if she can come over to the farm sometime. When you say yes, she thanks you.

Purple Heart

You must have a mushroom shed built on your farm for this event. Walk into your mushroom shed between 8am and 11am on a Monday when Mary has a purple heart or more. The first heart event must have been previously watched.

While inside your mushroom shed, you'll hear Mary call out to you. She comes inside and asks if you would show her how you grow mushrooms. If you agree, Mary will look around and begin to muse about all the different things inside the shed. When she's done looking around, she thanks you and says she is going to ask if she can a mushroom shed built at her place too!

Blue Heart

Have a giant crop in your field. For the event to trigger, wait until Monday to harvest the giant crop, any time between 8am and 6pm. Additionally, Mary must be at a blue heart or more and both previous events must have been watched.

When you try to harvest your giant crop, Mary will show up. She asks if she can help you. The two of you put in a lot of effort to finally get the crop harvested! When it is finally out of the ground, Mary asks if she can keep the crop to study it. She would like to know if growing larger crops could help countries with food shortages.

If you agree to let Mary keep the giant crop, you help her carry it to the villa. She promises to study hard and thanks you before going back inside.

Even if you've agreed to let Mary keep the crop for this event, the crop will still be in the field when returning to the farm.

Yellow Heart Event

Enter the dig site between 8am and 6pm on a Monday. Mary must have a yellow heart and all previous events must already be previously watched.

While inside the dig site you will hear Mary call out to you again. She confides in you that she's been writing a novel and was thinking of making the book's setting an excavation site. She asks if she would be able to gather information here at the dig site.

If you tell her it would be fine, you will demonstrate how to dig for items. While digging, you find something in the ground and give it to Mary as a gift. She thanks you for helping her research for her book and leaves.
