OK, *******.
You're adorable.
If you didn't read my previous post, you should probably read that one first or this one won't make sense.
Fauxnel wasn't that hard after I figured out how to handle him. And yes, Lockswell got the finishing shot.
The story about Valmur's assassination is a little more complicated than I let on.
See, right when Fauxnel had recruited Wylfred, Valmur showed up and announced that he and his family were withdrawing their involvement with the Artolian crisis. This sort of pissed off Fauxnel, so he sent some henchmen to kill Valmur.
But in between those two occasions, Wylfred ran after Valmur, because the latter had made a brilliant deduction: If there are no more battles, the valkyrie won't appear and take people away. This is a shocking concept to Wylfred, and he needs to go talk to Valmur some more.
Ailyth, who has been bugging me lately to use the feather, follows him and asks what he could possibly want to ask someone who's given up war. Wylfred says he doesn't know, but--OH SNAP VALMUR'S DEAD.
So, as we know, Wylfie then goes rushing back into the palace and points his sword at Fauxnel for killing Valmur. Fauxnel whips out his magic wand and the two of them get it on.
After the catfight, Fauxnel goes crazy for a minute and it seems like he's going to turn into Lezard with a slightly more noble goal ("save Artolia") and explains that he had no choice but to kill Valmur for the greater good. But then Wylfred asks, "Wasn't he your friend?" and Fauxnel hangs his head and he says "Yes, he was." Then he adds that he was a "necessary sacrifice."
Of course, this probably makes Wylfred feel pretty shitty, because at least Fauxnel is working for the greater good of the entire kingdom. Wylfie's just caught up in petty revenge.
Fortunately, five minutes of angsty exchange makes Fauxnel see the error of his ways, and Wylfred decides that the best way to get revenge on Lenneth is to put an end to war.
THE END
...just kidding. No, I have a feeling it's far from over.
Here's another touching sequence between Wylfred and his mummy:
Margot: Welcome home, dear! You’re late…my beloved Thyodor.
Wylfred: …
Margot: I’ll make dinner right now. Wait right here. Oh, that’s right, the music box is broken. Would you fix it, please?
Wylfred: …
Then there's this cutesy little family flashback. Then Wylfie heads to the graveyard...
Tilte comments that Ancel still isn't here, and Wylfred says, "Yeah." After she's gone, Ailyth tells him that he can't keep hiding it forever. This time there's no valkyrie blaming.
I'm getting kind of sick of having Gwendal in my party. He's the first VP character who actually repulses me. It's probably the spitting thing, combined with the ugliness of both his face and personality. It's kind of silly of me, since everyone spits at some point, but it's all big and yellow and gross-looking. Seriously. Check it out for yourself.
Dammit! There's always so much I want to say about this game, but I usually forget most of it. I usually try to make only one post a day, but I had so much to say after my last angry post and I wanted to bring some sunshine to my LJ again.
OH! One more thing:
When Lenneth left Valmur's body, a white feather floated onto it. Either she's being very careless with her feathers, or she does this every time she chooses a soul. I suppose that would make sense, since Fauxnel earlier demanded that Wylfred show proof that his father had been chosen by the Battle-maiden. At the time, I marveled at how easily he accepted that Wylfie was the real McCoy--couldn't he have just snatched a chicken feather or something? Apparently not.
It makes me wonder--what if Lenneth left feathers on the bodies of the einherjar in VP1? That really changes how people must have viewed the deaths--at least for some of them. Others might not be too happy. Consider those guys who killed Janus. What will they say when they discover the feather on his body?
OH SHI--
Current Mood:  tired

Yay! You did it! You defeated that Fauxnel guy.
The Japanese sure love feathers, it seems like whenever a character has wings, they pratically shower the field with feathers. It looks pretty but is a serious case of molting. It'd be nice if Lenneth's was more symbolic than just "It looks awesome!"
At least now Wlyfie has an excuse why he doesn't like seeing his mom. God....what if she sexually harrases him? 0_0
I don't think she'd do that. She was probably told by her mother that women shouldn't want sex and should only do it because their husband wants it.
That would be horribly disturbing, though. D: |
