Aquaria Towers
Template:PlaceOriginal Aquaria Towers is an aquatic world located in Summer Forest ruled by intelligent seahorses, who are watched over by the seahorse king. As the name implies, there are numerous underwater towers that serve as homes for the seahorses. Although when taken over by the Water Workers, the sea horses were shocked by the electric poles and crabs infested the area. The Water Workers stole all the seahorses' water so they couldn't move or breathe. Spyro helped them and the seahorse king thanked him and gave him the talisman.
Guide
Prior to Spyro's arrival, the Water Workers from Sunny Beach have drained all the water in the realm, causing some of the Seahorses to become immobilized. Spyro must release all the water by pressing switches, while avoiding becoming lunch for fierce robotic sharks (with the help of Moneybags and his shark submarine). Once you release all the water, the seahorses will give you the Aquaria Towers Talisman as thanks for helping them.
Cutscenes
Opening Scene
A seahorse is seen with its head down, looking sad. Suddenly, a hand appears with a glass of water, and the seahorse looks happy, until the hand takes the water off-screen. The hand brings the water to the seahorse, who again looks happy, until it is taken away. The hand then brings the glass back before taking it away again. The camera moves outward, showing a Water Worker holding the glass of water. On the other side of him, is an unknown creature in a bucket. The Water Worker again pretends to give the seahorse some water, before taking it back. He then looks to the unknown creature and pours the water in his bucket. The seahorse falls to the ground, saddened again, as the worker and creature laugh at him.
Closing Scene
The world is filled with water again, and a seahorse is seen swimming in the water, happily. Suddenly, a pair of robotic jaws appear on the side of the seahorse. The seahorse apparently blows bubbles out of its rear, and, fearing for its life, flees and swims off screen. The camera moves to the side, to show the jaws are fake, and it was just another seahorse playing a mean trick. Suddenly, another pair of robotic jaws appear beside this seahorse, who looks at them and laughs, thinking it is just someone playing a trick. However, the jaws belong to a Metal Shark, who chomps his mouth a few times, proving it's real. It then chases the seahorse off screen.
