The title of the current Lodestone news Firefall Faire—Bombards Ablaze! suggests that the whole affair might be a "faade", with a very suspicious gap between those two 'a's.
Is that yet another unknown archaism or did the font just not like the c with cédille? ;)
A minor issue either way, but maybe you still care ~

Hello all!
I'm glad everyone is digging the Firefall Faire poster. Our lead artist, Akihiko Yoshida, did an awesome job of getting across that retro 50s B-movie feel. I can't wait to see what he does for Ha-- Ulp! You heard nothing from me!
As for the missing "ç" in "façade," I swear on my signed Nobuo Uematsu CDs that it was in the raw text we submitted to the Lodestone team... Honest! Unfortunately, it looks like when they chose a font for the intro, they selected one that wasn't able to handle European characters, and the "ç" faded into the aether.
We've already notified the team that their puppies will be held hostage until a "c" is implemented.
Thanks for the report!
(No puppies were harmed in the writing of this message.) -
