'''Star Hill''' is a mystical hill in | '''Star Hill''' is the name of a mystical hill in the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]]. While its appearance has changed in each appearance so far, it is usually lauded for its beautiful and romantic view ([[Mario]] is even advised by a [[Toad (species)|Toad]] to take [[Princess Peach]] there on a date). Star Hill is literally seen as the place where wishes come true. | ||

[[Mario]], [[Mallow]] and [[Geno]] travel here for one of the seven [[Star Piece (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)|Star Pieces]]. This Star Piece is the only one that can be taken without a fight; it rests on the ground at the end of Star Hill, unguarded by anyone (most likely because the player fought in [[Booster Tower]] and [[Marrymore]]). | ||
It is impossible to traverse the entire hill simply by walking; the only way to access different areas is by lighting several of the unusual star-shaped flowers, causing a keyhole in a large star in the area to grow. Going through the enlarged keyhole allows the enterer to travel to another area instantly, and the keyhole shrinks behind them. The hopeful fallen stars that litter the area can be examined to hear the wishes of the people who made them. Two of these wishes will come true over the course of the game, and if the wishes are examined after it comes true, the wish will be changed. Reading Mallow's wish will cause him to lash out at the player in embarrassment, and reading his parents' wish will make him mellow. | |||
At the time of this game's events, [[Smithy]]'s monsters have overrun the terrain. This includes [[Gecko]]s, [[Mastadoom]]s, [[Mukumuku]]s, [[Pulsar]]s, and [[Sackit]]s. | |||

In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Star Hill is instead directly north of [[Peach's Castle]], although it is renamed '''Shooting Star Summit''' in the English version. Unlike its previous appearance, the stars the mountain is named for are unable to be interacted with, and there are shooting stars seen of various colors that constantly scatter and fall harmlessly on its grounds. At the base of the hill lies [[Merluvlee]] and [[Merlow]]'s house (referred to as "Merluvlee's Place" in the nearby notice board), where Mario can have his fortune told and trade [[Star Piece (Paper Mario series)|Star Piece]]s for | In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Star Hill is instead directly north of [[Peach's Castle]], although it is renamed '''Shooting Star Summit''' in the English version.

At the base of the hill lies [[Merluvlee]] and [[Merlow]]'s house (referred to as "Merluvlee's Place" in the nearby notice board), where Mario can have his fortune told and trade [[Star Piece (Paper Mario series)|Star Piece]]s for badges. [[Princess Peach]]'s [[Mysterious Treasure Chest]] can be found on the first floor of the house. | ||
During the events of the storyline, [[Eldstar]] notifies [[Mario]] in a dream to head to the summit for counsel after [[Bowser]] takes Peach's castle to the sky and easily KOs Mario. Once he has awakened from his unconscious state after many days and [[Goombario]]'s family revives him, he heads to the summit. Once he arrives, all seven [[Star Spirit]]s appear (using the last of their power to create a projection) and reveal to Mario he must rescue all of them to save [[Princess Peach]]. On his way back down the mountain, Mario is introduced to [[Twink]], who gives him the [[Lucky Star (Paper Mario)|Lucky Star]] from Peach and teaches him how to use the [[Action Command]]. A [[Magikoopa]] then appears, having followed Twink to Mario, and must be defeated. Once the Star Spirits are physically gathered together later on, they use their power to open the [[Star Way]], a celestial trail which leads to [[Star Haven]] above. | During the events of the storyline, [[Eldstar]] notifies [[Mario]] in a dream to head to the summit for counsel after [[Bowser]] takes Peach's castle to the sky and easily KOs Mario.

*"''This place feels strange and mysterious, doesn't it? If we go east from here, we'll eventually get to Shooting Star Summit.''" | |||
*"''This is Shooting Star Summit. Stars are really...uh, shooting. People say that this place, like no other, reaches up and embraces the sky.''" | |||
*"''This is the house of an amazingly gorgeous woman, the fortune-teller [[Merluvlee]]. [[Merlow]], who collects [[Star Piece (Paper Mario series)|Star Piece]]s, also lives here. This house pulses with psychic power. Can you feel it? It feels...weird. It feels like I'm floating on some kind of spiritual cushion.''" | |||
