[Depression Moon]

Is it friends when they're seperated but they're connected in their hearts because they love one another?

[Caveroamer]

is it the song Melodies Of Life?

[Nog]

It's not Madeen or Friends, but Melodies of Life is very close.

[Harle-Quin]

I can't help but think it's Garnets hummy tune, but that would be Melodies of Life...hmm. Need to re-read riddle and replay game, haha.

[Nog]

It is Garnets hummy tune. :p

The track is called Song of Memory on the OST. Melodies of Life is the song that plays at the end credits IIRC.

[Harle-Quin]

Bah. Same tune.

Thanks, of course, go to everyone else who did all the hard work, enabling me to swoop in and steal the glory.



First and foremost,
short and swift.
Magus murder next,
though it can be missed.

Obsolete from the start,
but you may want it once more.
When your world becomes confused,
it's the thing you'll wish for.

Who am I?
What is my name?
One must become a stranger,
for the rest of this game.

Taken at once,
but evolving throughout.
I spend most of my time,
just brooding about.

Person or thing?
Friend or foe?
That, my dear friends,
is what I want to know.

Hell yes. I like rhyming so much that I'll do it, cheesiness and lame-ness be damned!

[Rantzien]

Yay, Quin riddle!

Just as it should be.

My guess is Dagger.

First and foremost,
It's Zidane's initially equipped weapon.

short and swift.
Well it is.

Magus murder next,
though it can be missed.
Mage Masher is the next weapon for Zidane, although you don't have to get it.

Obsolete from the start,
You can steal a better weapon in your first fight...

but you may want it once more.
When your world becomes confused,
it's the thing you'll wish for.
... but when you get to Ipsen's castle, the Dagger is the shizzle.

Who am I?
What is my name?
I think this verse and the following refer to Dagger, the person, rather than the weapon.

One must become a stranger,
for the rest of this game.
Garnet hides her identity behind the alias Dagger.

Taken at once,
"Kidnapped" at first,

but evolving throughout.
but gains much power throughout the game.

I spend most of my time,
just brooding about.
Not sure what this is supposed to mean. I guess she is a thoughtful lass.

Person or thing?
Princess or weapon?

Friend or foe?
This doesn't make sense. You probably just used this to be able to rhyme

That, my dear friends,
is what I want to know.
Okay.

[Harle-Quin]

I'm, like, the opposite of Thingfish.

In my defence, I haven't played for a while, so couldn't think of anything good.

For face-saving purposes, Rantzien was wrong about the "evolving throughout" line. That actually just refers to her speech, and the whole Princess-cum-commoner thing. Hah!

Rantzien's up.

EDIT: Also, the "friend or foe" line does make sense, bitch. Dagger girl = friend. Dagger weapon = foe, if I didn't like weapons. Cheeky bugger.
