Let's Play FFT v1.3.06e "Ramza the Incompetent" pt. 010
((Here we go, into the last battle of the chapter. While this may be a bit risky, I've doe some job changes so people can be further along the way they're going.
Ramza L.10 / Squire L.4 w/Steal
Gwynn L.11 / Thief w/Equip Crossbow L.2 (On way to Dragoon)
Lilly R. L.12 / Geomancer L.1 w/Steal (On way to Ninja) *Did Not Deploy*
Zappa L.12 / Thief L.3 w/Punch Art (On way to Dragoon as well?) *DND*
Olive L.12 / Summon L.2 w/Black Magic *DND*
Yuu L.7 / Monk L.1 w/Item (on way to... a job)
Jacqueline (Jacky) L.14 / Oracle L.2 w/White Magic (On way to... a job)
And Delita doesn't matter because guests don't matter aside plot! (but he's not just a chump at least).
Most of the characters I have a long term plan for, and personalities, to which I'm slowly remembering as I spend more time thinking about this LP again! Yuu is intended to be 'gender fluid' despite being the male character portraits. The joke is "Uh... hey you!" since their class is quite shrouded...when they get there.
Dragoon, guh, I mean LANCER, now that we see, has taken in a huge overhaul in action skills since Vanilla (the regular PSX/PSP version). No longer just a bunch of vert/height 1,2,3 etc, but now there's an innate range of 3 for jump targeting, as it should be, with the pentultimate being limitless height. Reaction, Movement, and Support skills are the same.))
Fortunately Ramza's suggestion was spot on; Teta was at Fort Zeakden, but she was also very much being held at knife-point. At first I felt relieved that Zalbag and a squadron was also there, but then we spotted Algus. Worse still, Zalbag ORDERED Algus to fire...
...on Teta! He fires again on Golagros. A messenger came and led Zalbag away, leaving Algus behind. Nobody would stop Delita from giving chace, aside Algus himself who has chosen to lump the rest of us in as 'common animals'. Ramza included. I'm certain nobody will miss him. If anyone, he has nobody to blame but himself, or God.
((Well, maybe she's okay?))
((Okay fine? How about Chumpy?))
((Chumpy, I mean Algus, has double archer power! And I forgot to bring Steal Weapon?! [I'm actually lacking it, only Steal Armor so far]. He has some SICK jump range too, and he makes use of all the roofs that typically you won't touch unless you over-level earlier on, which I'm avoiding. He makes good use of Timed Strike and Heartache Strike too but... his problem is getting close to him, not really his damage.))
Algus spent far too much time berating Ramza and preaching to him how a Beoulve should act. How his family is nothing but to use and be used. Be used to protect while keeping high status. though none of us had ears for him, I believe Delita finally had heard enough.
((Interestingly, since Delita was already down, he gets back up with 1HP. I don't recall if this happens in Vanilla.))
But who would blame him; to watch a man whom was near family to him, Zalbag, order his sister to be killed?
It truly is all unfortunate to hear and see. The fact that that's just how things really truly are, one class, one family, to just use another for their own gain. Even if one person aims to do good, in the end it still comes down to whom is serving themselves more.
While we still aim to to what is right and good by man... I'm afraid to say that I feel Ramza doesn't quite understand this. It just feels like more than simple disbelief, or denial of the truth; but that he genuinely doesn't... then again, whom am I to say what he does and doesn't think. At the least, he tries to be a good man, class and status be damned.
Once we took care of Algus, may he rest in Hell, we were finally able to tend to Teta's body. Or we would have would Delita let us near. However as he approached, I realize only now that we'd forgotten Golagros had retreated into the fort, where he'd threatened explosives lay in wait. A blast took myself and Lilly off our feet, while Ramza went to Delita's aid.
...
...
Unfortunately we all saw him engulfed in flame as the rest of the fort went up in a fantastic display of chaos. We more or less scattered from there. I did what I could to keep up with Ramza, but I've yet to see any of the others. It's only been a day, but I still worry. They know the task I've undertaken, and... hopefully when we meet again their hearts won't have swayed. They're all good people, I would loathe to hear they've fallen to some poor fate.
((So yeah, there's some graphical errors that go on, like the menus...
Now at the end of this chapter we're skipping ahead some time. Thus far, I've been using Jacky's journal dates alongside in-game dates, but... I refuse to believe that literally only ONE DAY passes 'in game'. Naw. So over the course of... a while... I'll be posting spread out entries, mostly random dates with meeting up, and meeting, the other 'generics' we'll keep using along the course of the game!
Thank you for reading and, coming soon, Chapter 2!))
