Castle Figaro! Ah, it's good to be home!
Sabin hasn't been home for a while, so he takes off as soon as we arrive.
Meanwhile, we'll visit one of the shopkeepers:
Ah, for once the party would have gotten free stuff from shopkeeper but noooo, Edgar has to go and be such a humane king.
We buy two new tools for Edgar: Flash & Drill. The former blinds all enemies, increasing their miss-chance while the latter only hits a single enemy but ignores armour, to some extent. I won't be using Flash that often, as usually you could as well just confuse them but Drill will be our anti-boss tool of choice!
The Chancellor greets us happily
Well, duh. It is Edgar's home!
Boring guy, let's visit the library.
So not only can the Castle dive under the sands (mind boggles), it can travel underground as long as there's sand - WTF, how does that work?!
Oh well, Edgar and Locke go to bed, alone, as this isn't a Bioware dating rpg.
MEANWHILE!
Sabin walks into the empty throne room.
If Sabin would now take the throne and declare himself as the king - now that would be an awesome plot twist! But instead he mopily looks around, like a sad puppy.
Except for almost burning down, thanks to Kefka. But we're not keeping you around for your perceptive mind, Sabin, so no fear.
Uh-oh. Emo flashback incoming!
Lot's of shouting and running. Seems like Sabin isn't taking his father's passing well.
A tender moment between brothers?
Interrupted by the MATRON!
Whom I imagine looks like this:
Now there's a reason for civil war if I've ever heard of one.
Plot thickens!
Well, it is kinda important topic in a pseudo-medieval monarchy...
Yeah, beat her up, Sabin! That'll teach her a lesson!
Sorry, they can and will.
Edgar already has the sensibilities of a king, it seems.
Good plan, boys.
There it goes!
Edgar appears!
That's exactly how my brother and I always banter. Uncanny. Well, maybe Japanese find sea-food related jokes delightful.
No Edgar, don't you start.
Training to be a Grand Master Kung-Fu guy while you bedded everything in Figaro wearing a skirt?
ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: BROTHERS UNITED AGAIN
Just kidding, there are no achievements in this game.
Next morning, we get a move on, finding the Castle Engineer:
Damn right, skippy.
Under the
sea earth...
Thanks, Mister Engineer.
Brand new continent! Never seen monsters! Unvisited cities! Mystery! Drama! Excitement! Action! All this and more - in only this LP! Stay tuned!
Next update might be before summer... or not.
Truth be told, I didn't remember either. I guess it's been a really long time since I played this game. (I still remember the train business from one of the previous updates, though, spooky.)
Keep it up. Also, I'm totally a Terra fanboy.
