Home (マイホーム Mai hōmu, lit. My Home) is a Land from Legend of Mana. The abode of the Hero/Heroine, Home is the vantage point at which they begin their adventure in the world of Fa'Diel. It is the first land of the game.

Daddy's Broom[]
After the landing of Junkyard and a series of events, Lisa will notice her broom is gone. She cries out loud, complaining that she won't be able to cast spells, while Bud tells her she must have just lost it and their dad wasn't a good mage anyway. Li'l Cactus appears, walking back to his pot while the siblings are in awe that he is able to walk. Upon talking to him, he reveals he thrown away the broom in Junkyard. Shortly after, Bud tells the Hero/Heroine Lisa overheard the conversation and went after the broom, prompting the player to go with him.

After chasing a scared Li'l Cactus, the player will find the dead Sproutling gone. Then, inside the Workshops, they will find Pokiehl, a crying Belle, and a reluctant Nunuzac, who has trapped the Sproutling inside a dream realm.

Areas[]
Home has a number of areas, not all of which are named in-game.
- Home
The house that serves as the central feature of the Land has an upstairs bedroom where the player can save the game at the bed, and where the game starts. Downstairs from there is a kitchen area as implied by a fish sign with a beaded curtain on the left, and a door with a "W.C." sign that cannot be accessed tucked away on the right. Neither serve any purpose. To the right is a door to a library where accumulated Encyclopedias can be accessed. An attic area also exists in a cutscene, but is not accessible to the player, and there is no discernible ladder or stairway to imply otherwise. Leaving the house leads to a rightward path to the world map and paths to other areas of the Land.
Going to the right from the door to the house leads to a corral where Pets can graze and a barn. Entering the Monster Barn brings up options for managing your Pets.
- Entrance to Workshops
Going to the left behind the house or continuing through the Monster Corral leads to a door into the Entrance to Workshops. Game events will unlock the Equipment Smithy, Instrument Workshop, and Golem Laboratory.
- Backyard Orchard
Going down the left path away from the house leads to Trent and the Backyard Orchard as unlocked by game events. While accessible earlier, it's functionally identical to the Orchard Land, allowing the player to grow Produce in two independent areas.
