Various factoids and symbolism
- "Id" is a concept defined by Sigmund Freud, the component of the human psyche that consists of one's instinctual drives, desires and impulses - at its core seeking pleasure and avoiding displeasure.
- The names of the four Elements are based on four of the orders of angels - Throne (Tolone), Dominion (Dominia), Seraphim (Seraphita) and Cherubim (Kelvena). Their powers are also of course based on the four Greek elements of fire, water, wind and earth.
- Buntline is named after a model of gun, the Colt Buntline Special.
- The "Malakh Plan" is derived from the Hebrew word "mal'akh", which means "messenger". It is usually used to refer to angels as messengers of God.
I did some grinding off-camera to get everyone's Gears fully equipped. The best place for this is fighting mecha in the small desert along the Kislev-Aveh border - not only do they give 1000 gold a battle, but they also have a chance of dropping Magnetic Coats, which sell for 2000 each. I also bought two more Holy Pendants at Nisan since they allow for some rather hilarious game-breaking later on...
(One could potentially be even twinkier by buying a second or even a third Ether Doubler to make Elly's ether powers even more OP, but I'm not going to do that - I do want there to be some challenge in this game, after all).
