Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits Special

SPECIAL

Welcome to my special feature on Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits. If you're someone who arrived at this site via a search engine, I thought I'd warn you that this is not really a true "shrine" for this game. Other than for the final boss, you won't find any FAQs, walkthroughs, or anything like that. As the members of the Port Saiid Forums know, I had an obsession with this game and its characters for several months. We have an on-going tradition of posting random pictures in topics entitled "Post a Picture", and I had posted so much stuff from Arc the Lad 4 while I was playing it, that it was suggested to me to archive it all to my site. That, along with a couple of character essays that I wrote specifically for this section, is where all of this came from. As a result, I'm not sure this section will make any sense to anyone who either doesn't visit the forums or hasn't played the game. This will also help mitigate the temptation to just ramble on about certain characters and events in Arc 4 when I'm ready to do a full review.
*** SPOILER WARNING ***
Also, and this is VERY IMPORTANT, if you haven't played the game and you are planning to, or if you're currently playing it and don't want any spoilers, I STRONGLY suggest not going any farther until you've finished the game, AS THESE PAGES DO CONTAIN MANY SPOILERS. If you ignore this warning, then please do not email me to complain about giving away spoilers. You've been warned.
