Let's Play Xenogears, Part 12

We explore the Thames and play a dumb card game.  Also there's some Gear fights.

Questions so far:


  • What is Ramsus' grudge with Fei, and what does he mean by his 'other Gear'?
  • Miang apparently has the power of hypnosis.  How many people is she manipulating with this power, and what is her motive in doing so?


Various factoids and symbolism

  • Babel is the name of the city of Babylon in the Hebrew Bible.  It's also associated with the "Tower of Babel", a tower built by humanity in an attempt to reach the heavens.
  • In Greek mythology, the Nereids are sea-nymphs, said to be the fifty daughters of Nereus and Doris.
