    Answers by Susan Calloway is a metaphor for this game.

    I close my eyes, tell us why must we suffer
    Release your hands for your will runs asunder
    My legs long tired, tell us where must we wander
    How can we carry on with redemption beyond us
    Self explanatory.

    To all of my children in whom life flows abundant
    To all of my children to whom death hath passed his judgment
    The soul yearns for honor and the flesh the hereafter
    Look to those who walked before to lead those who walk after
    Yoshi-P taking the helm after Tanaka, and trying to decide the direction in which the game should go.

    Shining is the land's light of justice
    Ever flows the land's well of purpose
    Walk free, walk free, walk free, believe,
    The land's alive, so believe
    These forums, and the discussion of the future of the game. Hopes and aspirations.

    Suffer [feel] (me) Lonely [face] (me) Weakness [teach] (me) Evil [Fear] (me)
    although[feel] (me) one must [face] (me) stumble [teach] (me) listen [speak] (me)
    (Although we) [speak] we (might) [tell] them (we must) [tell] them (land of) [hope] hope
    (Mother) [hope] hope (father) [wish] with (every) [wish] wish(has a) [roam] home
    (we must go) [roam] go (listen) [roam] go (suffer) [roam] home (sanctum) [swim] leap
    (And as) [speak] we (wander) [sleep] sleep (answer) [sleep on] sleep on (on)
    Some random part of the song roleplayers made up, that kinda leaves you feeling embarrassed for reading/listening. It doesn't really fit, but you let them carry on because you don't really care that much.

    Now open your eyes while our plight is repeated
    Still deaf to our cries lost in hope we lie defeated
    Our souls have been torn and our bodies forsaken
    Bearing sins of the past for our future is taken
    Trolls telling the community that this game is dying.

    War, born of strife these trials dissuade us not
    Words without sound these lies betray our thoughts
    Mired by your plague of doubtful and cheap lore
    Judgment binds all we hold to a memory of scorn
    Tell us why, given life, we are meant to die? help us in our cry!
    Casual VS Hardcore (and Lore VS Content) debate. Comparison to other MMOs, specifically FFXI and WoW.


    witness (we) suffer (we) grovel (we) reason
    (we) follow (we) struggle (we) wander (we) listen
    (we) whisper (we) shoulder (we) addle (we) weather
    (please) answer (you) answer (me) answer together
    More roleplaying stuff.

    My life is a riddle to bear rapture and sorrow
    To listen to suffer to entrust unto tomorrow
    In one fleeting moment from the land doth life flow
    Yet in one fleeting moment for the new leaf doth grow
    In the same fleeting moment thou must live, die and know
    The on-going discussion of whether this game can survive or not. Do we know what as players want? Is it best for the game? Are we to suffer endlessly because that's simply how we've been building ourselves up to do so? (Potential failure of supposed Golden Patch)
    As of now, all we can do is wait for development and Producer Letters.

    Great. You've forever ruined the one redeeming quality this game has. Thanks.

    Interesting take on it. but it is definitely a cryptic telling of the games story

    Yeah. Someone pointed out about how it was a prayer to the Twelve and what not.

    But the parallelism (albeit unintentional) to the game itself is present.

    You JUST posted this, and you're giving someone else tips on comprehension? Gtfo.

    Anyway, someone must be pretty bored.
