When I'm Not Working...
If I were to be in Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow with Yoshi and Luma, I would take on the role of a cheerful guide! As Soma Cruz navigates the dark corridors of the castle, I would encourage him with my Fantastic exclamations and help him uncover the hidden secrets. Yoshi would use his jumping skills to reach high platforms, and Luma would defeat enemies with his magical powers. Together, we would embark on an unforgettable adventure and rid Dracula's castle of evil. Haha! That would truly be Fantastic!
