Final Fantasy: Lost in Japanese

Whoa! Lots of events happening. We approach the mirror and promptly get stuck in some sort of a trap. However, just when we think all is lost, long lost Doga calls five of our friends to free us. This gets us through the mirror, where we encounter one easily defeated boss. Brimming with confidence, we are promptly attacked by a massive Cloud of Darkness. This looks dangerous. She’s like really big, you know, and she’s got two snakes over her shoulder.

I’m right about the dangerous part: she wipes us out in one round. Crap. Just goes to show you how much Final Fantasy is like real life: If you ever got attacked by a Cloud of Darkness with snakes over her shoulder in real life, you’d likely be killed instantly, too.

Or so I thought we were killed, but tricky Final Fantasy 3 was just messing with us! Once again Doga comes to our rescue, as she magically resurrects us. We are now in the Land of Darkness, more like the Land of Purple. We are getting lots of speeches from our friends now. Everything feels as if we are approaching the end.

I’m a bit concerned, as I was hoping to get to Level 65 before getting here. I’ve heard amazing things about the final boss and how difficult it is. I would hate to lose all this work in the Crystal Tower.

Still, we have no choice now. Nowhere to go except forward, and we can’t teleport out. Onward to victory or doom!
