If the player backtracks through the Starwalker's room in the Forest after ringing the bell to scare them off, they can encounter an NPC called "The Original Starwalker." Speaking to this character causes them to reappear in the castle basement's animal cage room.

Importing a Chapter 1 save file to Chapter 2 after discovering the Original Starwalker results in the latter entering Kris' key items alongside Lancer and Rouxls Kaard, briefly exiting to accompany them at the carnival and appearing as part of the Thrash Machine's transformation scene.
