Because if so, I wanna fight you. Please identify yourselves because I wanna fight all of you, so bad. I'll fight all of you at once. Seven of you, twelve of you, I don't care, bring it on!

We'll fight unarmed. Disrobed. In a pit of mud! Just our wits and glistening muscles. One victor, sun soaked and sweaty, panting like an animal. A small army of shamful failures lying sore in the mud of their own defeat. We'll make a racket to shake the heavens themselves! I'll leave you disgraced and exhausted, quivering in your own weakness, screaming my name!!

Why is that flerp? If you had to take a guess?

Am I intimidating? Or ... do I smell funny? I mean, I'm not expecting to get any special treatment or anything but ... to have no one say anything at all?

I guess I'm just a little sad. And confused.

Pish-posh, i'm sure you have many admirable qualities. Like ... good teeth. Or maybe you're college educated. Or ...

I don't know you, man.

BUT DON'T TALK DOWN ABOUT YOURSELF!! Thats the first step to believeing the things other people say about you. Constant denial of your flaws, thats the only thing that keeps society running.

Anyway, Leo's are pretty cool. I just converted a Leo into an astrology buff, in my real life. The life I lead when I'm not making people uncomfortable on the internet. She calls me commonly to ask which of her associates would be good in bed based on their astrological charts. Its been immature but fun.

Fun fact, Cpig actually ran the orphanage I grew up at. And all of you were there. We were all homeless infants abandoned to a harsh uncaring world. And we used to trade stories about the wonderful families that would adopt us and all the great things we were gonna do once we grew up. And Cpig listened to all of us. And cared.

The orphanage's budget only afforded each of us two bowls of porridge a night but, Cpig used to spend his own money to buy us all a sweet roll every sunday. And none of us really understood until much later that on the nights Cpig bought us sweetrolls, he went hungry. Because we were all equally poor, really. Cpig just handled his poverty with grace. And the rest of us, we had each other and sweetrolls once a week so, no one ever noticed.

Remember fighting about who got to sit on the throw rug they'd tossed on the old brick floor? It wasn't even that much more comfortable but, drat, we used to shout and rough house. Cpig would just shake his head, cross his arms, give us that look. Same look he'd have when we'd fight about who got to sit closest to the one good furnace on the coldest winter nights.

Its funny because, looking back, we had so little. We had almost nothing. And nothing was ever easy. But I just can't shake the feeling that .... Those were the happiest days of my life ...

You don't remember adopting 27 deranged orphans from Cpig's orphanage?

We definitely remember.

You adopted us and then trained all of in the art of combat so we could go and change the face of Ivalice as a united army in a massive fantasy world war.

I mean, I thought it was an odd choice too at the time. Honestly.

Ok time for the next installment.

I am gonna skip through the cutscene after you leave The city where the first fight happens because it's just a flashback to Cpig's dad dying.

The important parts are that Cpig is the half brother of Lord Dycedarg and Zalbag, so he's only half Noble.
Also he has a sister named Alma.
Cpig's dad tells him he's a good boy and then dies.

End of cutscene.

We move on to the Mandalia Plains, our next battle.

We find a bunch of those good for nothing death corps accosting some poor lad.






Here we have a battle where we need to choose something, basically the difference is the win condition being save algus or kill all the bad guys.


I have noble knightly honor to uphold so..



and here, is where I get a game over screen 3 times because saving algus can go gently caress itself without a directly controllable healer.

So I picked the gently caress that guy lets focus on killing these guys option.


Delita the goody 2 shoes is all bent about it.

Die mad Delita.

I still got a game over once because Radcliff died and I couldn't end the battle before he got turned into a crystal so I reset the game.

I finally stuck together


I still just managed to scrape by with this bloodbath of a fight.




There is another cutscene where you find out the stranger's name is Algus, he is an academy soldier like you, and the death corps kidnapped the Marquis of Limberry! Delita and Cpig suggest instead of running off like idiots and trying to rescue the Marquis like Algus wants, that they should maybe go back to Igros castle and Tell Lord Dycedarg.

Algus agrees.

This cutscene did produce a good screenshot that has a myriad of possible mafia related uses in my future games.




So then it's off to Igros for more cutscenes!









And then Algus bursts out with unreasonable demands.


Dycedarg has a perfectly reasonable reaction.


Algus continues with his desperation.


And then puts everyone in their place.









(he's such a diiiicckk)


Oh, you thought we were done with this cutscene?
Nah.













Cpig's sister greets him and he...



promptly ignores her and says hello to his brother.























Yeah guys, don't you think? ;) ;) ;) I would never want you to go check that out instead of guarding this stupid old castle amirite?







Then there's a bit at the end where Alma tells Cpig that Teta lied and actually everyone picks on her at school.

The end.

Once I get control again lots of new equipment is opened up and I am able to do some party management.

I make Cpig and Philo Knights because we need some people with hp and strong attacks.

I make Mandy and Radcliff Archers so we have some ranged physical shots from people with high brave scores.

I leave Daison as he is for now and make Chris a Priest(white mage) so she can fast track to Time Mage.

Delita stays the same but I had to sell some of his poo poo to be able to afford stuff for my knights and archers, same with Algus but I make him a chemist for another layer of healing since he can use potions as a chemist and I can't since he's a guest.

Final party for this update.










I walk back over to Garliland Magic City so we can be primed for Sweegy Woods next time.


Oh yeah, I fixed the black map thing and tweaked graphics settings so it looks a lot better now.
