Plot
Born From a Wish
Maria wakes up alone and frightened in the "Heaven's Night" club. After pondering to herself about what she should do, she eventually decides to try and find someone else in the town. She begins to wander through the streets of Silent Hill until eventually she enters Baldwin Mansion, an area out of bounds in the main game. Here she meets the owner of the mansion, Ernest Baldwin (although she never actually sees him; all their conversations are shared between locked doors.) Ernest speaks in a strange monotone, and asks her to find him the "white liquid" to help him bring back his dead daughter. Maria helps him with this, even though it may not work, stating, "I don't mind fighting for an impossible cause." When she's exploring the house, she finds a teddy bear in a kid's room. She comments, that Laura would love that toy (showing that she shares some of Mary's memories). After Maria brings back the "white liquid" to Ernest, he reveals slightly more about Maria to her, and tells her about James. He warns Maria that James is a bad man, and that he's looking for "the you that isn't you". This seems to stir something in Maria, who begins to remember things about James - that he wasn't good with his wife during the illness and killed her. But she also remembers that underneath James is a kind person. Maria then opens the door, but the room where Ernest is in is empty. Disappointed from not finding another human, She leaves the Baldwin mansion and considers suicide, but refrains. She decides to follow her fate, hoping that James would accept her as she is.
Born From a Wish - Glitches
- Playing through the Born From a Wish scenario, multiple times a Lying Figure has appeared on top of a building in random places. It simply sits there unless you get close, and then it crawls around. It cannot attack you with melee though it can still hit you (if close enough) with its spray. You cannot kill it, unless it walks off the roof in which case it will walk around on air.
Letter From Silent Heaven
Differences from the original
In this version, you can unlock the UFO Ending and play as Maria in her Born From a Wish scenario. You can also disable the "Noise Effect" feature.
