Ugh, the story in this game makes me tear up every time...


 * SPOILERS BELOW*

You and your pawn face so many challenges, touch so many lives and "with every fiber of your being" try your damndest to do what's right... Only to have your heart, those you love and in the end your life, torn from you.

A cruel metaphor for what life can be, is the way I interpret it. No matter how good you are or how true your intentions, you cannot escape death and you cannot escape chance. Even if you succeed in your dreams, you may fail in it's realization.

Either you are defeated by God to become a prisoner and a fallen angel, cast down from heaven to cause suffering... Or you defeat God to become God and thus again a prisoner to unending life with two options: Remain as you are, without ever having a friend to bond with and watching your loved ones pass... Or kill yourself and relinquish your life to another.

DD is my favorite game not only for creature design and combat... But because the story of the Arisen, the pawns and the Dragon makes me weep like a child almost every time. The only happy ending is that your pawn is gifted with life, even if they spend the rest of it heartbroken over your loss.

-Sigh- I get that lump in my throat every time he says "ugh, stubborn child" and wish Grigori and I could just be friends D;
