    Answers was well written and can fit in many events, Yoshi was smart enough to thread all so t seemed it was the flow of the game since the start, and he did one of the best jobs I've ever experienced at that.

    I'm more intrigued about the title of the second story arc,"A Realm Reborn", not Rebuilt or other similar term, but Reborn, like with Bahamuts Megaflare the realm didn't needed to be rebuilt, but something else was tiggered and it "Reborned" saving the realm and taking it to a state resembling a past time.
    The connotations are different, and I'm sure the wording will have a full meaning once we experience the lore, but for now I just think there's something fishy.

    Wasn't 'Reborn' one of Yoshi's 'four words' which he used back when he took over? Not sure.

    In any case, I'm not sure that the semantic difference between these two words is that significant, though to me 'reborn' is kind of more poetic and fitting for a title, 'rebuilt' is more, I don't know, 'mechanical' and unfeeling.

    Who knows. Maybe the OP is right about the song's meaning, or your and the others' replies to him suggesting he's 'overthinking it' (my word) is right, but I think the same applies to looking at the title Yoshi has adopted for 'version 2'.

    It will be intriguing to find out, one way or the other.

    Well,

    In one fleeting moment from the land doth life flow = Realm destroyed
    Yet in one fleeting moment for anew it doth grow = Realm reborn

    :P
