The original concept was more serious and featured robots and an "ancient ruins" motif. The main character was a robot that would defeat enemies with spinning iron balls.

Now realizing that the bond they shared was truly real despite the fabricated memories, Huepow chases after Klonoa and grabs his Wind Ring, with Klonoa himself clinging on to it, not wanting to leave Phantomile.

After a brief scuffle, Klonoa finds the pendant under a bell and ventures back to his home in Breezegale, where his caretaker, Grandpa, tells him that the chieftess of the nearby Forlock Forest, named Granny, knows about the pendant. The pendant is left with his caretaker.
