Hey,

I'm talking about Phodom talking with his wife in chapter 9. Was it real, illusion or what it was?

Aero, did you actually consider Jaelbird's sarcasm as a serious response?
Along the shore the cloud waves break,
The twin suns sink behind the lake,
The shadows lengthen
In Carcosa.

Strange is the night where black stars rise,
And strange moons circle through the skies,
But stranger still is
Lost Carcosa.

Songs that the Hyades shall sing,
Where flap the tatters of the King,
Must die unheard in
Dim Carcosa.

Song of my soul, my voice is dead,
Die thou, unsung, as tears unshed
Shall dry and die in
Lost Carcosa.

I too, thought that it was weird when I saw it in the poll :P. Jael, please don't abuse of Aero's innocence.

When you mean illusion, do you mean like: He wasn't "very good" at the moment, or something created by magic? Well, a illusion can be both(the first one is a delusion though, but it's almost the same), but I understand it as magic.

Well, either way, I vote for illusion.

Besides, don't try EVER to revive Birgitta. Seriously, to a character to die, it's bad and blah blah blah, but if so, then...goodbye :P, you're dead, I don't want to see your face ever again, because, if I see, it'll be as a zombie or as a ghost...and it's impossible for her to still alive(even if partially only). Unless you do something very very VERY stupid or ... nonsensical(like the appearence of a ghost, please don't do that :P), it's impossible to see her in reality ever again.

Ah, by the way, I've played a game already where a father "goes down" from heaven to Earth to help his son with his journey, but he can't say who he really is. In the end, his "soul" dissapared or went to hell or something...I don't remember, but I remember that I stayed like this: [ :P ] for, like, half a minute. It's stupid to revive the dead. If you don't want it to die, then don't kill it in the first place :P(not clearly at least)

how could it not be realistic (to the end of tco that is)?

when fradz was told to be a dragon, i didn't want to believe that, so aero could well twist birgitta's background as well.

I know it was sarcasm and I'm going to update the poll if other ideas comes. Of course I was thinking if he would have given another stupid I idea then I would not add it.

Translation, please!

Jael: Like I said, it's not impossible, but that would be something that I would disapprove completly since the plot twist would be pretty big.

the utterance of hastening someone up. you're welcome.

it is of no relevance however, but a mere cover-up.

Jael: Like I said, it's not impossible, but that would be something that I would disapprove completly since the plot twist would be pretty big.

the plot is highly dependant on the characters. if aero can succeed with the characters, why shouldn't he do that?

It doesnt matter if its real or not; what matters is that Phodom seemed to have taken his wife's words of advice, and started to let go of the past and move on.
