My dream... is... to make Maginaryworld a world full of light...


— Illumina, Sonic Shuffle

Illumina (イルミナ Irumina?) is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. She is the Goddess of Dreams, the guardian angel of Maginaryworld and the protector of the Precioustone.[1] When Illumina lost faith in herself, she split into two separate beings: Lumina Flowlight and Void. These two would subsequently battle one another until they reunited and brought back Illumina.

History[]

Past[]

Having created the Precioustone sometime in the past,[2] Illumina assumed the job of protecting the crystal from her residence in the Temple of Light to safeguard everyone's dreams.[1] However, Illumina was eventually overcome with self-doubt and lost sight of her own dream of making Maginaryworld a beautiful utopia, causing an internal conflict so strong that she split into two beings, each representing opposite ends of the spectrum of emotion: Lumina Flowlight and Void.

Sonic Shuffle[]

While Illumina herself ceased to exist, her two halves lived on. Lumina, having no recollection of her earlier life, believed herself a servant of Illumina, while Void suffered from loneliness. To ease his pain, Void sought the Precioustone, but disbursed its pieces across the dimension when he touched it. Lumina, believing Void caused Illumina to mysteriously vanish, brought in Sonic, Tails, Amy and Knuckles to save Maginaryworld. While Sonic and his friends helped Lumina recover the Precioustones, Illumina would sometimes appear in their dreams and tell them about her own dream.

After rebuilding the Precioustone and subduing Void by converting him into a gem, Lumina was lost in self-doubt when she thought Marginaryworld was doomed despite their efforts. However, Sonic and his friends brought Lumina back to her senses. Lumina then took Void into the Perfect Precioustone and two of them merged back into Illumina. As Sonic and co. prepared to leave, Illumina thanked them for clearing away her doubts and promised that Maginaryworld would become an even better place before sending them home.
