The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Skynote 英雄�説VI 空�軌跡 (Eiyuu Densetsu VI: Sora no Kiseki or The Legend of Heroes VI in Japan), is a JRPG released by Falcom in the mid-2000s, first on the PC and then on the PSP. It is an entry in Falcom's line of "traditional" turn-based story-heavy JRPGs (as opposed to the action RPGs of the Ys series), and kick-started what has become the company's flagship title as the first entry in the Trails Series.After recently passing their exam to become Junior Bracers, wandering adventurer-types helping local communities, Estelle Bright and her adopted brother Joshua begin their journey to become full-fledged Senior Bracers, following in the footsteps of Estelle's father Cassius. They meet new friends while undertaking a journey across the kingdom of Liberl, a country on the Zemurian continent, which the entire Trails series takes place in (future arcs take place in different countries). To become true Bracers, they must travel across all of Liberl's major cities doing work for the Bracer Guild branches in each one. However, things quickly get muddied.Joshua and Estelle find themselves dealing with a string of strange crimes where the suspects, upon exposure, seem to develop amnesia. In addition, the airliner that Cassius was aboard when he left the country for some work has disappeared. Fighting the crime spree and searching for answers as to Cassius' location, Estelle, Joshua, and their newfound friends find themselves entangled in a complex series of events that could change the face of Liberl, and answer certain questions about Joshua's past... even if they are answers Joshua may not want brought to light.Trails in the Sky is, in a word, gigantic. It was so large, in fact, that Falcom couldn't practically release it as one game; it was released as two games, with a third game that was more of an epilogue than a third part. Trails in the Sky FC (short for "First Chapter") was released in mid-2004, ending on a massive cliffhanger, with several major questions left unanswered (and originally titled just 英雄�説VI 空�軌跡, with no indication that it would be continued!) In spite of the game's modest budget and sprite-based graphics (far behind those standard for the then current wave of PlayStation 2 games), it received praise from critics and players alike for its sprawling cast of characters, depth of Worldbuilding, ambitiously extensive script, and numerous side stories about the lives of its hundreds of non-playable characters.Second Chapter followed nearly two years later in 2006 (it was so large as to require two UMDs when released on the PSP in 2007), resolving the arc's main plot; despite some complaining during SC's development, it released to nigh-rabid reviews. A year later, Trails in the Sky the 3rd was released; it functioned as a sort of Mission-Pack Sequel combined with a Playable Epilogue. It expanded upon the development of most of the series' characters, including party members and supporting cast, and also resolved dangling side-plot hooks, in addition to setting up plot elements that would come to be important to subsequent games in the franchise.Similar to Falcom's other flagship RPG series Ys, Trails in the Sky historically suffered from No Export for You syndrome, which is the primary reason why (much like franchises such as the Tales Series and Shin Megami Tensei) the series was quite popular in Japan, but was originally practically unheard of outside of it.However, the first chapter was eventually localized and released in March 2011 for the PSP courtesy of XSEED Games (who worked on Falcom's Ys series previously). After several years, XSEED announced in late 2013 that Trails in the Sky SC would be released on PSN and Steam, with the translation done in cooperation with Carpe Fulgur; and after several other travails, SC finally got a release date of October 29, 2015. The Third was released on May 3rd, 2017 (but only on PC).Beginning in 2015, the games received an Updated Re-release for the Play Station Vita and PlayStation 3 to bring the trilogy in line with later games in the franchise containing enhanced graphics, redrawn character portraits, new animated sequences, a rearranged soundtrack provided by several freelance musicians, full voice acting for the story scenes with the exception of sidequests, with various gameplay additions. Due to the licensing issues involved, these versions of the games are currently only available in Japan and are likely to remain unlocalized.There is also a two episode OVA entitled Trails In The Sky: The Animation, which covers roughly half of SC.The series, as a whole, is one arc in the Trails franchise. It was followed up by the Crossbell duology, which consists of Trails from Zero and Trails to Azure. Taking place a few years after the events of the Sky trilogy, these games take place in Crossbell, another country in Zemuria, and stars a new set of protagonists. That arc was then followed up by the The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel tetralogy, which also takes place some years after the Liberl arc and features some returning characters from it. Additionally, the series was so popular as to inspire an Intercontinuity Crossover fighting game with Ys, in the style of Marvel vs. Capcom, as well as a more traditional spinoff title, The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails.Be warned: This page has a lot of marked spoilers; this is because talking about most of the tropes related to the game requires talking about the revelations the game makes later in its narrative (particularly in the second chapter). | |

Villain: Exit, Stage Left | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_105f4bd9 | comment |
Villain: Exit, Stage Left: To put it simply, the party really sucks at capturing anyone they defeat. And when they finally manage to knock a villain (Kanone Amalthea) unconscious, they neglect to restrain her in any way or confiscate her weaponry/orbment to prevent her escape when she wakes up. And when she shows up again and gets knocked out again, they still just leave her unconscious without doing anything. SC takes this trope up to eleven as Ouroboros enforcers always stand upright and talk with the party after every battle, while always having some means of escape. Even Weissman does this after you fight him and his two One-Winged Angel forms, and it's Father Kevin who corners and executes him without Estelle or Joshua's knowledge. | |

Faux Yay: When Anelace and the senior bracer you didn't pick at the start of SC are about to leave for Rolant, Anelace makes a strong implication that she wants to get into a relationship with Estelle. The implication is so strong that everyone around her assumes the same thing. It turns out that she simply wants to be rivals instead. | |

| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_128e4ba8 | comment |
During the SC the protagonists will be affected by a disaster involving the technology they use failing, and as such need to equip Zero Field Generators in order to use arts. Tita in particular needs a ZFG, as the only weapon she has that doesn't use orbal power is the Gatling gun she uses in one of her S-Crafts. | |

Earn Your Bad Ending | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_132e865c | comment |
Earn Your Bad Ending: FC's final boss normally has 3 phases, with the last one being a Zero-Effort Boss that allows your party to deliver the coup de grace. However, if your Bracer Rank is only 5th class, Cassius Bright will just finish off Reverie himself in an extended action sequence. What puts it in this category is that doing a Minimalist Run will still leave you with 3 less BP than it takes to reach 4th class, and that requires you to not only skip all extra missions, but to make the wrong decisions to avoid gaining extra BP during the story quests. A player generally will not see this scene unless they're really trying. | |

Joshua and Loewe were both survivors of Hamel's massacre, leading them to join Ouroboros. While Joshua ends up leaving Ouroboros, Loewe stays in order to see if humanity can face disaster without becoming complacent and forgetting their grim pasts. Additionally, Joshua realizes that when he went into a Heroic BSoD after Hamel, he fits Loewe's description of a self-deluded human, motivating him to find an answer to Loewe's trial. | |

Badass Adorable: Tita is introduced as an adorable, precocious 12-year-old girl who induces Cuteness Proximity in those around her... and works on research projects for her country's greatest scientific institution, carries around a hand cannon that can be used in combat to devastating effect, and by the time she's 13 pilots a mech into combat that she built herself that makes her one of the strongest characters in the party. Renne is introduced as an adorable, mischeivous 11-year-old girl who Estelle falls in love right away and is frequently compared to a kitten. She's also Enforcer No. XV of Ouroboros and has earned herself the nickname "Angel of Slaughter" thanks to her bloodthirstiness, skill with both a scythe and orbal arts, and gift for manipulating large amounts of people to do exactly what she wants. | |

Title Drop | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_18d15922 | comment |
Title Drop: An interesting variation. The English title "Trails in the Sky" is part of the lyrics to one of Olivier's songs, but it ultimately has little to do with the plot. However, the Japanese title "Sora no Kiseki" can also be translated to mean "Miracle in the Sky". The word "miracle" is dropped many times throughout FC and SC and the concept of miracles is central to the themes of the story. "Trails in the Sky" is also the title of the final chapter in SC, referencing the Liber Ark, which was powered by an artifact that makes wishes come true. | |

| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_198bef8 | comment |
Interestingly played with. When the game was originally in development as a single unit, it's clear that the ruins beneath Castle Grancel were going to be this; sure, you rescued the queen, beat Col. Richard and saved the kingdom but clearly not everything was answered and it would serve as what would in other games be the "big twist point" when the real villain was revealed and whatnot. Once the project got too big to contain in one game, though, it was chosen to be the actual final dungeon of FC, meaning it is and isn't a final dungeon; it's the end of FC, sure, but it's barely the beginning of the real story. | |

Mission-Pack Sequel: The third chapter caught some flack on release over perceptions that it was, basically, this, since the plot had nicely wrapped up in the previous game.

Underestimating Badassery: In the final chapter in FC, when Estelle, Scherazard and Kloe rescue the Queen during the coup d'état, they encounter Lieutenant Lorence. Estelle, who defeated his team during the tournament, confidently states that even though he is strong, there is no way he can take the three of them all by himself. As she realizes after fighting him, she's wrong. Actually winning the fight is optional and reliant on specific quartz setups and good luck, and even if you manage to win, he doesn't go down. | |

The Computer Is a Lying Bastard | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_1da01dce | comment |
The Computer Is a Lying Bastard: There are a couple of errors in the guide text for the English translations on Steam that can easily frustrate a player. One of them involves the orbal arts, specifically that the notebook in some cases shows them as requiring less of a particular element or elements than is actually needed in order to make them available. Additionally, The 3rd includes an accessory called Sapphirl Neckklace which carries the same description as the Grail Locket item, "Protects against all status ailments (except KO)." However, Sapphirl Necklace actually protects against Stat Down, i.e. lowered defense, sped, strength, etc. | |

Ãœbermensch | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_1e6dfea1 | comment |
Ãœbermensch: FC and SC heavily deconstruct this trope through their main antagonists. Richard's Fatal Flaw is that he idolized Cassius Bright as one of these, to the point that when he left the military, he thought himself too weak to ever live up to his legacy and believed that relying on a miracle, i.e. The Aureole, an ancient superweapon, was the only way he could protect his country. In other words, his misguided idealization of Cassius causes him to commit to a course of action that, as shown by happens to Crossbell and North Ambria in the following two arcs, would likely have massively backfired had he been in charge when the Tetracyclic Towers were deactivated. Estelle chews him out for this, pointing out that her father didn't single-handedly win the war by himself. People from all over the country working together were essential to make his plan work, and she even points out that he himself was one of them. And that, to her, was the real miracle. Cassius himself shows up after the final boss fight to chew out Richard for giving him undeserved credit even though he was a flawed man who ran away when things got tough. This Let's Play annotates the game's dialogue with explanations of how it argues against the notion of the lone hero, and how its rich backstory shows that the deconstruction is more than just talk. Estelle gives a similar speech against the true Big Bad, Georg Weissmann, who, unlike Richard, does consider himself this and claims he needs the Aureole to control humanity and save it from itself. Estelle denies this, countering that she's seen how people would work together to deal with a nation-wide power outage, and that they don't need a higher power to survive, just the ability to care for each other. Besides, to her, a life being purely governed by Ubermensch intelligence without the bonds shared with each other would be awful. | |

MST3K Mantra | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_1ea7d12a | comment |
The games do apply this principle to a few things. For example, if we're being remotely realistic, even briefly pulling the trigger on any of her weapons should result in Tita being knocked flat on her butt from the recoil, if not injured outrightnote since there's no way in hell she weighs more than 90 pounds (in armor, mind you) while her weapons spew out easily 100+lb of recoil; never mind that a lot of her weapons would weigh almost as much as she does. Tita looks awesome using them, though, so nobody cares a whit. | |

In Medias Res: The Animated Adaptation covers a quarter of Estelle's arc. The third quarter, specifically. Since the entirety of FC is not covered, anyone watching the anime who has not played the games will not understand what is going on. It doesn't help that the plot description on the cover of the DVD case is the plot of FC when the anime is actually about the first half of SC. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: Applies somewhat, though as the series takes place only fifty years into the Orbal Revolution the setting is more analogous to the late 19th or early 20th century than modern times. There are automobile analogues, flying ships, guns and even laptops (well, briefcase-tops, Tita has one), but out of sixteen playable characters between the three chapters, only three use guns, with most of the other characters preferring melee weapons and the only other ranged user uses a crossbow. (Okay, Tita uses enough gun to count for an entire party, but still.) They do have petroleum oil and gunpowder in-universe, but have stopped development due to the Orbal revolution.(So yeah, the Empire scrambling hundreds of petroleum fueled tanks with gun powder weapons really shows Osborne's conspiracy to take over Liberl). | |

Mythology Gag | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
The 3rd also invoked a little Mythology Gag to Legend Of Heroes IV:Loewe is Back from the Dead thanks to Lord of Phantasma and serves as her Dragon, and after the party defeats him, he disappears after a Tear Jerker exchange with Joshua, Estelle, and Renne (if one brings the latter two in the party, that is). Mile is Back from the Dead thanks to Lord Bellias and serves as his Dragon, and after the party defeats Octum, Mile disappears after a Tear Jerker exchange with Avin. The difference is that Mile isn't meant to die yet. Again from The 3rd: Kevin goes to Gehenna in order to save Ries, much like when Avin jumped to Hades in order to save Mile. Might be intentional since The 3rd was released shortly after PSP version of Legend Of Heroes V, but the whole point of the game is similar to Legend Of Heroes V's Tuning Forks Special Scenario. You get party members from clearing a dungeon or moving to the next chapter, can team up with the entire playables of the previous two games along with Original Generation, involves a boss rush, and a massive amount of grinding is required to reach 100% Completion. | |

Kill Sat | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_26f41623 | comment |
Tita's Satellite Beam S-Craft is visually impressive, but it violates established series lore in multiple ways. The ability sees her using a laptop to activate a Kill Sat and blast the enemies... but laptops wouldn't be invented for another few years (with the first appearing in Azure that takes place two years after Sky), and we won't even see the very beginnings of a Zemurian space program until Daybreak that takes place a whopping six years later. | |

Bag of Spilling | |

Bag of Spilling: Slightly subverted in that while the characters lose all their items, their levels can be carried into the next game if the clear data of the previous game is present. Justified in-universe. A new model Tactical Orbment makes your old Quartz useless in SC and the plot puts Estelle in a situation where she doesn't need to carry around her Mira and Sepith. You also start with statistically equivalent gear to the stuff you ended FC with and you retain all your Crafts so the characters haven't really 'lost' anything. The 3rd has a different justification for losing your things but reaches effectively the same result. | |

Unexpectedly Dark Episode | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_286141a2 | comment |
Unexpectedly Dark Episode: These games are mostly a typical JRPG firmly on the idealistic side of the Sliding Scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism. Which makes these moments stand out much more. The Hamel Incident, as detailed in SC. A civilian village was massacred, children included, by mercenaries as a Pretext for War. While fleeing, Joshua and his sister were confronted by a soldier who attempted to rape her, and Joshua, less than 6 years old, was forced to kill the soldier with his own gun. Kevin's past as detailed in Chapter 7 of The 3rd. His mother went insane and tried to commit murder-suicide with him when he was a child, he accidentally killed his Parental Substitute in an incredibly gruesome way, and punished himself for it by becoming a Church Militant assassin whose missions included having to Mercy Kill a child. Things don't get much better for him in the present after he reveals this, as he turns out to hate himself so much his subconscious created a replica of hell within Phantasma where he could be tortured, and you're forced to traverse it. It isn't pretty. Star Door 15 in The 3rd. Most of the other doors are humorous or heartwarming character vignettes. This door details Renne's past in a child brothel, told from her perspective, and doesn't downplay or gloss over anything. This one in particular was so dark Japanese re-releases had to censor it. | |

More than Mind Control | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_28e90e30 | comment |
More than Mind Control: Weissmann is an absolute master of this. It's how he was able to force Joshua to spy on the Bracers, it's a large part of the reason Joshua feels so guilty over what happened to Karin and it's one of the main impeti for Joshua leaving the Brights at the end of FC, as the idea that Weissmann might still have such control over him and might force him to betray or even kill Estelle fills him with absolute, blinding terror. SC reveals that his terror was entirely justified, though he's still called out on his manner of dealing with it. | |

Walking the Earth: The game is very "Ys-scale" about this. While you will, naturally, do some wandering about (Estelle and Joshua are "Bracers", or adventurers who openly wander about doin' good (with organized HQs in multiple towns even)), the game is confined to the Liberl Kingdom in terms of scope. This is partially because the crisis is local, and partially out of realism since wandering the planet, even with a conveyance, would take months. | |

Kloe on the other hand is a calm, refined, demure Lady of War who only uses a weapon if there's no other choice and chooses to spend her free time helping children at the local orphanage. The two of them very quickly become best friends. | |

| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_2d4fa515 | comment |
Estelle is concerned about Renne's status as an Ax-Crazy child soldier for Ouroboros. Likewise, Renne wants to kill her for leading Joshua away from Ouroboros and questioning her brutal way of life. | |

False Flag Operation | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_2dddd99d | comment |
False Flag Operation: The village of Hamel was a small Erebonian community just across the border from Liberl. It ceased to exist during the Hundred Days War, officially due to a massive avalanche, but in truth, the entire population save for Joshua and Loewe had been massacred by Erebonian soldiers using Liberlian arms. The war hawk faction of the Empire used this as justification to start the war. After the war ended, the accusation of Liberlian aggression was withdrawn and the avalanche story was made up, while the Erebonian government quietly executed the parties responsible for ordering the attack. Liberl went along with this because even though they had pushed Erebonia's forces out of Liberl using the increased mobility granted by Liberl's airship fleet, they didn't have the manpower necessary to stop a second invasion if Erebonia decided to go all out. | |

The Bad Guy Wins: FC, on multiple levels. Not only does Richard's scheme have the desired side effect the hidden villain wanted, as part of the cleanup from the main plot, Cassius takes an extended leave of absence from the Bracers and returns to the Army, so that he can help reorganize the military to make it stronger and a greater deterrent from foreign threats, which is ultimately what the Big Bad was trying to do with his scheme, so even though his plot failed, he still got what he wanted out of it. | |

| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_2f253c94 | comment |
Glass Cannon: Tita has the single-lowest HP progression and tied for the lowest DEF progression in the gamenote at level 50, the cap of FC, Tita has only 2395 HP and 154 DEF without equipment or quartz, while Jack of All Stats Estelle has 3422 HP and 176 DEF, and even Squishy Wizard Kloe has 2908 HP and 161 DEF, but she's also the only member of the party whose basic attack is an AOE, allowing her to do several times the damage of any other character's basic attack assuming enemies are clustered tightly enough together. Later games attempt to make up for this, with the final dungeon in SC giving her an exclusive piece of armor that has the highest DEF bonus in the game and The 3rd giving her the Orbal Gear Super Mode that doubles her HP and increases her STR and DEF by 20%. | |

Sorting Algorithm of Evil: The Capua Sky Bandits are... perhaps not evil-evil, but certainly criminals with a fair bit of what that entails, the proper villains of FC (the Liberl Royal Army Intelligence Division) are principled in their own way but willing to engage in acts that most people would consider "evil", and the overall villains (the Society of Ouroboros) are willing to routinely engage in acts of mass assault, property destruction, attempted and actual murder and whatnot in order to further their ends. | |

Randomly Drops: A ton of equipment in 3rd. Most of them aren't really the best equipment (in fact, all of them have multiple "levels", so you might find a weapon, then the same weapon except with more attack and a "+1" as an affix later), but there sure are a lot of them. Really painful for those who want a copy of every item. | |

I Let You Win | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_35566274 | comment |
I Let You Win: Lorence holds back during both of his fights in FC. The first time is because Richard wants Estelle and Joshua to meet him in the castle so they can talk about Cassius. The second time is because Lorence wants to test Estelle's strength as a potential obstacle to Ouroboros. In SC Chapter 8, despite the Enforcers establishing that the party wouldn't stand a chance against them in a Wolfpack Boss fight, they split up in the final chapter, which definitely gives the heroes a fighting chance. Weissmann states that he wanted the party to defeat the Enforcers one by one as an experiment and that stopping the party before they reach the Final Boss isn't a necessary part of the plan, especially when he's rightfully confident that he can beat them with the Aureole's power anyways. During Loewe and Joshua's duel, Joshua exhausts himself disarming Loewe while the latter doesn't look that tired. The only reason Joshua "won" was because Loewe was satisfied with his answer during their duel dialogue. | |

Anguished Declaration of Love: At the end of FC, Joshua tells Estelle of his past and explains his intentions to disappear from her life forever. Her response is an angry and tearful confession of her love for him, something she'd grappled with for much of the latter half of the game. They wind up sharing their first kiss... which, unfortunately, was a ploy by Joshua to slip her a knock-out drug in order to get away quietly. | |

Rule of Cool | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_36e63b81 | comment |
Rule of Cool: The games do apply this principle to a few things. For example, if we're being remotely realistic, even briefly pulling the trigger on any of her weapons should result in Tita being knocked flat on her butt from the recoil, if not injured outrightnote since there's no way in hell she weighs more than 90 pounds (in armor, mind you) while her weapons spew out easily 100+lb of recoil; never mind that a lot of her weapons would weigh almost as much as she does. Tita looks awesome using them, though, so nobody cares a whit. Also, Enforcers like Joshua, Renne and Loewe routinely engage in physical acts that are blatantly impossible (for example, Loewe leaping off the top of Grancel Castle without injury, though considering the clues present, it may have been one of his shadows). This is handwaved to some degree by what we see Orbal technology can accomplish and later material provides additional explanations for some examples. | |

Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_372bc105 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism: The main story arc (in FC and SC) actually slides along the scale as it goes on. It starts off pretty light and idealistic, but then gets more and more cynical and dark until we're at almost Berserk levels of bastardity and cynicism, to the point that even Estelle begins to crack under the strain. Ultimately it swings back toward the idealist side of things in the grand finale, though. The title can be heard as "Miracle in the Sky" in Japanese for a reason, after all. The third chapter, meanwhile, works partially because it examines the concept of this and how we bury ourselves in our perceptions. It even uses Loewe, Cassius and several figures from Kevin's past to hammer the point home. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Chain Crafts. They may not be as flashy as S-Crafts, but their damage output is comparable or sometimes even higher, especially with a fully strength-buffed party, at a cost of only up to 40 CP per participant. This is especially true for Julia or Mueller in The 3rd, who hit multiple times in chains (Julia hits everything in the AoE twice, Mueller hits the center target twice); for them it's usually more effective to spam Chain Crafts than to use their regular Crafts or S-Crafts. | |

How, exactly, she managed to do either is all up to the imagination. Ditto in that same incident - Estelle's managed to burn her eyebrows off while cooking in the past. If she weren't a hardcore bracer, she probably could get a job as an explosives expert. | |

Hyperactive Sprite: Strangely zigzagged. Some of the sprites use the classic walking-in-place animation, but others curiously stand still when not moving. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: During the SC the protagonists will be affected by a disaster involving the technology they use failing, and as such need to equip Zero Field Generators in order to use arts. Tita in particular needs a ZFG, as the only weapon she has that doesn't use orbal power is the Gatling gun she uses in one of her S-Crafts. One sidequest in SC involves rescuing miners trapped by their elevator failing due to the Orbal Shutdown Phenomenon, Tita restoring the elevator's functionality using a Zero Field Generator. However, as one LPer pointed out, just because the elevator now works doesn't necessarily mean it works properly. The ZFG doesn't restore full power to the orbment, meaning the elevator's movement is pretty much start suddenly and stop just as suddenly, over and over again, until it reaches the top or bottom, resulting in a horrible stomach-churning journey in and out of the lower level. | |

Parental Substitute | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_3f11ef74 | comment |
Kevin's past as detailed in Chapter 7 of The 3rd. His mother went insane and tried to commit murder-suicide with him when he was a child, he accidentally killed his Parental Substitute in an incredibly gruesome way, and punished himself for it by becoming a Church Militant assassin whose missions included having to Mercy Kill a child. Things don't get much better for him in the present after he reveals this, as he turns out to hate himself so much his subconscious created a replica of hell within Phantasma where he could be tortured, and you're forced to traverse it. It isn't pretty. | |

Climax Boss | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_3f737576 | comment |
Climax Boss: Fighting Loewe in SC is the Point of No Return in the final dungeon; while you'll have the opportunity to rest up and adjust your equipment before facing the final boss, you'll no longer be able to explore the rest of the dungeon or alter your party's composition. Loewe is also the single hardest fight in all of SC, even more difficult than the actual final boss, due to a combination of extreme speed, sky-high attack power, the ability to cast a damage-immunity art on himself, and his Body-Split craft that lets him make a copy of himself. The fight is so difficult that if Loewe defeats you, the game gives you the option to give up and skip to the post-battle cutscene (the fight is immediately followed by Cutscene Power to the Max, so whoever wins the gameplay portion of the fight is ultimately irrelevant to the story). Both Loewe's extreme difficulty and the option to skip his fight if you can't beat him were actually added to the game in a patch after release, with the game files describing his current form as "Loewe (patch enhanced version)". | |

Elemental Powers | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_42846e90 | comment |
Elemental Powers: Because of the way Orbments work, all characters except for Estelle and Renne have at least one slot restricted to one of the six (later seven) types of Quartz, giving them a natural inclination towards one element or another. Despite this, actual specialization is mostly a matter of player choice combined with line setups. Earth Element: Zin and Josette. Water Element: Kloe and Mueller. Fire Element: Agate and Richard. Wind Element: Scherazard and Anelace. Time Element: Joshua and Kevin. Space Element: Tita and Julia. Mirage Element: Olivier, Kurt and Ries. | |

A Taste of Power | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_43bda213 | comment |
A Taste of Power: When you get to control some high-ranking guest characters, it's almost certainly going to be this trope played straight where arts is concerned. For example, you get to control Julia for one battle in SC in an earlier chapter and the game lets you cast high-powered Earth arts that your proper party would only be able to use nearing the final chapter. In Third, the prologue chapter starts with Kevin having an excellent loadout with good access to higher ranking arts. Needless to say, you lose everything when the game starts proper. | |

In theory, Liberl's army and the Bracer Guild cooperate with each other. Underneath the surface, however, there's a lot of disputes. Your two main characters, Joshua and Estelle, learn this firsthand when investigating the missing airline their father Cassius Bright was on and discover from the Bose Bracer Guild that the military is maintaining a public information blackout, and that includes the Bracer Guild. Furthermore, a notoriously stubborn general infamous for his hatred of the Bracer Guild is calling the shots, meaning bracers are being prevented from entering the areas the army is investigating. | |

Wham Line: "Allow me to clear away your confusion. *fingersnap*" Congratulations Joshua, you now remember your place and history as the Black Fang, Enforcer XIII of Ouroboros. "Enforcer no. XV. Renne, the Angel of Slaughter." From Loewe on the Glorious, revealing his relationship to Joshua, as well as a detail about Joshua's past we never knew: "Karin Astray. A childhood friend of mine and Joshua's older sister." "I'm sorry but that's just not going to happen" Kevin revealing that A) He's present where he shouldn't be and more importantly B) he's not just a novice Gralsritter. Kevin gets a pretty big one regarding his backstory, in Chapter 7 of The Third. Hits especially hard as, unlike what happened to Rufina Argent, there's been very little foreshadowing towards this reveal. "Now, hurry and take off that disgusting mask of yours...Lord of Phantasma—No, RUFINA ARGENT!" | |

Body Horror: Weissman, after absorbing the Aureole, turns into a bizarre, Lovecraftian-horror. In Gehenna, the seventh plane of Phantasma, Kevin encounters the remains of all the sinners he killed, which have been turned into something resembling mud-men. Probably the most horrific is a young child named Elmer, who was taken by a devil-worshipping cult and turned into a flesh-eating monster. Despite Kevin trying every form of Thaumaturgy he knew, he was unable to save the child and could only give him the blessing of a quick death. | |

| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_54547f2e | comment |
Phantom Thief: Bleublanc is a suave Gentleman Thief and Master of Disguise who wears a fancy suit and an ornate domino mask. He primarily steals only objects he considers beautiful and is known for having an eye for fine art, and he often operates by stealing hard-to-move objects in broad daylight without anybody noticing. He also gives his victims a chance to recover their property by leaving a literal Calling Card containing a riddle that will lead to either the location of the object... or the location of the next riddle. He's also recognized as a phantom thief in-universe, as the general public only knows him as Phantom Thief B. | |

Lotus-Eater Machine | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_5541da8c | comment |
Lotus-Eater Machine: As Estelle and her friends find the source of the fog covering Rolent, they are engulfed by a spell from Luciola. Estelle wakes in front of her family house with her father and suddenly-alive mother and turns into a child, spending happy times together. She manages to get out of it when she remembers Joshua's harmonica song. As it turns out, the Aureole itself gradually became one. Its effect was apparently akin to being high on speed and acid simultaneously, sans physical side-effects, and the inhabitants of the Liber Ark became so addicted to it that birth rates fell and society began to break down, forcing Celeste D. Auslese to seal it away. | |

The Empire | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_556a4e20 | comment |
The Empire: Perhaps not too surprising for a Japanese RPG. Erebonia are introduced as a heavily militaristic empire that tried to invade Liberl a few years ago in the Hundred Days War, and are a background antagonist for most of the story. This becomes heavily subverted over the course of the game- Erebonia is as much a victim of Oroborous's machinations as Liberl is, placing the two countries at risk. The game also makes them pretty sympathetic, with fact that one of your party members is their prince, and one of their commanders joins up for the final dungeon! If you keep playing the series, Erebonia continually becomes more sympathetic as its internal problems become clearer, ultimately leaving them as a subversion of this trope. | |

Bragging Rights Reward: The reward for catching the ultimate fish in SC is a key item that allows you to buy bait at the Fisherman's Guild. But since the fish is only catchable in the penultimate chapter (In the first playthrough, at least), and the fact that you've gotten the ultimate fish means there's no more need for fishing bait, all this really gets a player is one more Steam Achievement off the list. | |

Hero of Another Story | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_581f6468 | comment |
Hero of Another Story: A lot of the other bracers, particularly Team Kurt (Kurt, Carna, Grant and Anelace) come across this way. Kurt and Anelace join the party for a bit in SC, and Anelace is a somewhat more permanent fixture for Third. Cassius definitely comes across this way. Hell, half of Weissmann's plot in FC is to create a whole other crisis for Cassius to be the hero of so that he doesn't jam up the gears in Liberl. Also, this game takes its NPC dialogs seriously. If you take the time to Talk to Everyone as often as possible, you will find a lot of recurring NPCs all having their own stories going on in parallel to yours. It's quite fun really. | |

Central Theme | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_5ce7dbb9 | comment |
Central Theme: Trails is unrepentant about wearing its theme on its sleeve, that theme essentially being: "No one person, no matter what they've done in the past, no matter what they've done with their lives, is completely beyond love and redemption. Any life can be given meaning so long as you're willing to reach out to a person." Joshua, Renne, Kevin, Olivier, and Loewe all have major story arcs about coming to terms with this, and Kloe, Scherazard, and Josette all face the concept to some degree as well. Another common theme explored is that the greatest "miracle" of all (note that an alternate translation for the Japanese title is Miracle in the Sky) is the simple joy of people working together to overcome hardships, and not even the ultimate power of the gods can change that, as Richard and Weissmann both found out. People deal with grief and failure in different ways, and some of those ways are self-destructive even if they don't realize it. However, if you own up to your own grief and work with it instead of running away, you can come out stronger. Self-sacrifice is a highly dangerous thing. Things aren't always made better because you gave yourself up for another person- they may still need you, and your absence will only make things harder for you both. In many cases it can make the situation worse. It's better to work alongside the person who needs your help than stand in the way of their problems. | |

Late-Arrival Spoiler | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_5f3bb274 | comment |
Late-Arrival Spoiler: With FC being a good nine years old as of this edit and SC being seven, avoiding these has become fairly difficult as Falcom now assumes most interested people in Japan already know about all the major spoilers and revelations... and uses them in promotional material and whatnot, making them kind of hard to avoid if you're outside of Japan and following the news at all! (Places like The Other Wiki casually ruining the plot of all three games also doesn't help.) The biggest offender is probably Renne and her actual affiliation, motivations and alignment. One of the most prominent extant pieces of art for her (from Third) in various Western sources show her clearly rocking her Sinister Scythe, which will tip off anyone that she's more than she appears to be. Natch for Alternative Saga, which shows off the above and Pater Mater, and the Animated Adaptation will be terrible about this as well (the aforementioned stuff is being used in promotional images). Never mind, uh, all the spoilers on this very page. XSEED actually tries their damnedest to avoid these (all the way to only discussing one member of the villain group in SC at all on the promo website, which is less than even the Japanese site did), but it's an uphill battle. If you've seen any marketing for Trails of Cold Steel at all, you'll spoil the big twist about Olivier from the get-go. Funnily enough, the original, circa-2004 PC version of FC in Japan ran into this problem when SC was announced: during FC's development and pre-release promo period, it was never revealed that there'd be a second part to the story, and all the material, including the box behaves as if it's going to be a one-off game in the same vein as the Gagharv games. Seeing SC sitting right next to it in a store, needless to say, rather ruins the surprise. | |

Sun Door 2 in The 3rd, especially part 3. Take the trilogy's already finicky fishing mechanics and combine it with a minigame where you have to get the most points by catching bigger fish than your opponents. In part 3 of the minigame you basically have to hope that your opponent fails more often than you, especially since he can sometimes catch the larger fish without having caught the necessary fish to use as bait first. You basically have to hope the RNG works in your favor for him to fail to catch fish as well. | |

Species Subversives: the rare work that shows sheep in a negative light. In this trilogy, sheep are creepy troublemakers known for causing mischief to unsuspected travelers. The heroes end up fighting them on a few occasions and in one particular battle, they show a disturbing ability to "combine" into a big unsettling caprine gestalt. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Quartz stat bonuses are unaffected by Orbal Shutdown Phenomenon for some reason. This is likely an Anti-Frustration Feature, as stats suddenly tanking would make an already-difficult chapter even worse. Tita's Satellite Beam S-Craft is visually impressive, but it violates established series lore in multiple ways. The ability sees her using a laptop to activate a Kill Sat and blast the enemies... but laptops wouldn't be invented for another few years (with the first appearing in Azure that takes place two years after Sky), and we won't even see the very beginnings of a Zemurian space program until Daybreak that takes place a whopping six years later. | |

The end of SC reveals that Estelle was a kind of replacement for Karin, Joshua's sister who died in the war. Joshua is seen having a hard time grasping their bf/gf status as a result. | |

Chapter 7 has you climb the four towers of Liberl with each of them serving as a tower boss, and the final chapter has you face them in succession before facing off against The Dragon Loewe and then the final boss. | |

Cynicism Catalyst: Joshua lost his older sister during the destruction of his village, which led to his and Loewe's joining Ouroboros. The 3rd reveals Kevin had two: his mother snapping and trying to commit murder-suicide with him shattered most of his optimism, and accidentally killing Rufina got rid of what little remained. | |

Dub-Induced Plot Hole | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_6a85e9e1 | comment |
Dub-Induced Plot Hole: A minor one. In the English version of FC, Kloe explains that Jill was the one who first gave her her nickname. This part wasn't present in FC, as the original Japanese text simply stated that the nickname was a portmanteau of Kloe's first and last names, with no mention of Jill as the source. This became a plot hole in The 3rd, as a flashback to when Kloe first started attending Jenis Royal Academy showed that she was already going by that name before she ever met Jill. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Loewe's real name is "Leonhardt" which means "The determination of the lion", hence why he is called "Loewe" which means, of course, "lion" in German. Also present in the title, at least in the original Japanese. You see, the kanji used for "Sora no Kiseki" fairly clearly state "[Tracks/Wagon Trail/Path/etc.] of/in the Sky", but Kiseki, as a spoken word, has another meaning: "miracle". The title can therefore be heard as "Miracle in the Sky" in addition to the written meaning. This gets extremely meaningful, both ways, during the second chapter. This gets especially crazy (awesome) with the vocal theme song to SC, "Silver Will, Golden Wings": every single time the word "kiseki" is said in that song, it can mean either "trail/path" or "miracle" and the song will still make perfect sense. Estelle's surname is Bright, and her first name comes from the Old French word for "star"; everyone thinks she is as bright as the sun that shines through the darkness. She is even called the Sun Girl by Kevin in The 3rd. A huge amount of minor background NPCs have names related to their professions The priest in Rolent is named Divine. The owner of Rolent's orbal factory is named Melders, a fitting name for one who melds sepith into quartz. One of the merchants in the Bose market hall talks at length about porcelain. His name is "Meissen". The harbormaster of Ruan (i.e. the guy who runs the port) is named Portos. The gardener at the mayor's house in Ruan is named Gartner. A random fisherman in Ruan is named Pesca, which means "fish" in several Romance languages. The janitor at Jenis Royal Academy, who doubles as the groundskeeper, is named Parkes. One student at Jenis Royal Academy, who is particularly devoted to his studies, is named Logic. The P.E. teacher at Jenis Royal Academy is named Mr. Effort. The master of the Fisherman's Guild in Grancel is named Fisher. This even gets a lampshade hung on it: The owner of the ice cream stand in Grancel is named Sorbet. A reporter at the Liberl News Service in Grancel is named Noticia, which is Spanish for "news". Liberl Kingdom is a bit on the nose when describing the nation itself. Aside from the attempted coup, it is a fairly liberal autocracy. It features professional mobility, a free press, a lack of draconian social taboo and elections on the local level though no indication of any national parliament (although the "council of mayors" seen during FC seems to fulfill a similar-ish role). Far removed from the feudalism typically associated with aristocracy, it's essentially like a modern industrialized nation with an absolute monarch as the executive. Joshua's original surname is Astray, which pretty much describes how his entire childhood went. Matron Theresa, who runs an orphanage, is an obvious reference to Mother Teresa, who spearheaded a number of various charities, orphanages included. Mother Teresa is so famous that she is still the go-to name for charity. Pater-Maternote paternal/maternal the Humongous Mecha is appropriately named, being as it bears the role of Renne's surrogate parents. Captain Kanone Amalthea's first name (German for "cannon") is unlikely to be an accident given her tendency to rely on heavy firepower. The city of Zeiss's name references Carl Zeiss, a maker of precision scientific instruments. A fitting name for a Scienceville. Albert Russell's first name references Albert Einstein. They have much in common: both are scientists who completely revolutionized their world's understanding of science, and both have the same hairstyle. Ein Selnate is the First Dominion, and her first name means "One". Discussed in one of the empty chest messages in Sky the 3rd: Bleublanc's name is French for "blue-white", which is exactly his color scheme. Auslese is German for "selection", a fitting name for a royal house; i.e., the family selected to rule. Used as Foreshadowing with Professor Alba. Alba is Latin for "white", his real surname Weissmann is German for "white man", and his nickname "the Faceless" is written with the kanji for "white face" in the Japanese script. At the end of Sky SC, he gets turned to salt. Fitting that a man who has three names that mean "white" in three different languages ends up as a white substance. | |

All in a Row: Your party travels like this, which can actually be a nuisance when you have four people in it, since it takes a second or two for your party-members to follow the path you took, meaning a monster you dodged can still nail one of the tailing members of your party and draw you into battle. Worse, unless you have quartz to preven it, this is likely to be a back attack where the enemies get to go first. | |

Villain Has a Point: While one might not agree with Richard's actions in the first game, one can understand his goals: Liberl is a small nation that borders two major powers, one of which had tried to conquer it a decade before and nearly succeeded. The kingdom needed some form of deterrent to keep that from happening again. | |

Unwitting Pawn: The party becomes this to Weissmann in FC. Joshua, in particular, does not take it well. The party is pretty much unwittingly furthering the agenda of Ouroboros throughout the entire SC as well. Justified in a gameplay sense as the Enforcers are so overpowered that they could curbstomp the party easily at numerous junctures. Weissmann himself winds up becoming one. Right before his death he wonders whether the Master knew in advance that Weissmann's plan to evolve humanity using Aureole and the Ark would fail and that he was simply being tested and failed. He's right. | |

Brother–Sister Incest | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_771f6307 | comment |
Brother–Sister Incest: Something that jams up the gears of some people who play the game. Estelle and Joshua aren't even remotely related by blood (They're not even the same nationality - Joshua's Erebonian by birth), and they first met as not-quite-teens, so they weren't so young that the Westermarck effect would kick in to prevent them falling for each other... but at the same time, they basically lived together as siblings for years and Cassius even formally adopted Joshua after the events at the start of the game, when he came to live with the Brights, so he has the last name Bright himself. The really hilarious part to all this is that a ton of incidental characters in the Rolent area are surprised this isn't happening at the start of FC and most people who they meet on their journey simply assume they're a young couple. Meanwhile, Estelle is oblivious and wonders what the hell everyone is going on about. This doesn't really become an issue until Joshua leaves to take his revenge, forcing Estelle to examine how she feels about him. | |

Cooking Mechanics | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_789912da | comment |
Cooking Mechanics: This game has an extensive cooking mechanic that is your main way of healing outside of a town. Monster parts are the main ingredients, sometimes supplemented by local ingredients from shops. Cooking can be done anywhere from a special menu, and usually creates an item that can be used at any later time, but some recipes have an immediate effect on your party. You have to learn recipes in order to make specific items, which is usually done by just eating the food a restaurant or shop. Each town you visit has special local ingredients, unique monster parts in the surrounding area to harvest, and unique recipes to use them. | |

The Ending Changes Everything: Much of FC's plot can be viewed in a different light once you learn just who "Professor Alba" is and what he's been doing in the background of your adventure. All those times you found him on the roof of one of the Tetracyclic Towers examining the machinery on top? He was making sure he could deactivate them to free the Aureole. Remember when Joshua felt sick around him for no good reason? That's because he erased Joshua's memories. Remember how he showed up to get you into Grancel during the coup? He wanted to make sure you'd move the plot along to fulfill his agenda. | |

It's bizarrely the single most damaging thing you have access to at the start of the game, even out-damaging S-Crafts most of the time, and you will need it to beat the Prologue's boss on Hard or Nightmare. As you get stronger, however, you'll be able to out-damage it easily. And then the game gives you better attack food... | |

Her Code Name Was "Mary Sue": A very easily missed book called "I'm a Bracer!" (on the desk in Luke's grandma's room) is heavily implied to have been written by Luke, one of the kids in Rolent.

Justified, as he's a young child. | |

Phlebotinum-Induced Steampunk | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_7e418474 | comment |
Phlebotinum-Induced Steampunk: Zemuria has rapidly advanced from early modern to steampunk-ish levels of technology in the span of roughly 50 years thanks to the invention of orbments, machines that extract "orbal energy" from crystalline circuits made out of naturally-occurring minerals. The Sky trilogy generally sticks fairly close to Steampunk and Clock Punk, with a few exceptions here and there, though later entries in the franchise take things much farther, into Diesel Punk and straight-up modern territory. | |

Dysfunction Junction: The game does manage to avoid treading into Wangst territory, but good grief, the party has some issues. When all is said and done, let's see: we have two nigh-superpowered Tyke Bomb assassins, one of whom constantly wrestles with the happiness he experienced with the Brights versus what he's done and is capable of doing and the other of whom is wrestling with a history of terrible abuse; an imperial prince who is utterly disgusted with his family and, by extension, himself; another, local princess who absolutely wants nothing to do with the responsibility thrust upon her; a woman who wants nothing more than to bury her past in alcohol; a man who is driven by the loss of his entire family and the guilt he feels over being unable to prevent it; a priest who has problems with his faith and serious doubts about his place in the world; a girl with a massive wannabe-hero complex; and an aristocrat-turned-sky-pirate who has rather serious entitlement issues. Estelle is lucky Tita and Zin are around in all three games, or she'd find she's the Only Sane Man among this cast of nutters. | |

| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_83b89a9c | comment |
Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors: Enemies may be strong or weak against any of the four lower elements; their infobox displays a number from 0-200 for each element, with 100 as the default. The number is the percentage of damage taken from the element, with 100 meaning normal damage is taken, 0 meaning the attack is fully absorbed, 200 meaning the enemy takes double damage, and numbers in between meaning the enemy takes damage in between those extremes. In FC and SC the three higher elements are considered Non-Elemental, but in The 3rd enemies have strengths and weaknesses against each of the higher elements in addition to the lower ones. | |

Dragged into Drag | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_849af6e1 | comment |
Dragged into Drag: Halfway through FC, Estelle and Joshua are tapped to help put on a play for a school festival. The production is a gender-flip of a well-known play about a love triangle competing for the heart of a princess. Joshua plays the princess (And looks disturbingly good in a dress). In the final chapter of FC, upon learning that the plan that the plan to sneak her into the Queen's quarters involves disguising her as a maid, Estelle cheerfully forces Joshua into a maid outfit as well (And again, he looks disturbingly good in it). | |

Puzzle Boss | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_84f4a870 | comment |
Puzzle Boss: The second Lorence fight in FC. He's fought with a set party of 3, and is significantly harder than everything else in the game. Beating him requires you to really understand the battle system and take advantage of your characters' abilities to the fullest. His status attacks mandate the use of specific status resist accessories, his speed and ability to cancel Arts mandates the use of Time quartz and Scherazard's turn-advancing Heaven's Kiss to keep up, his massively damaging attacks makes Kloe's Kaempfer Craft necessary to debuff him and defend your party, and he heals so often that you need to time Estelle's highly damaging Barrage S-Craft well to finish him off. | |

One Game for the Price of Two: Accusations of this went flying around during SC's development, though died down once people saw how mind-blowingly huge SC was and how it simply couldn't have been included in the original release. Remember, two UMDs for the PSP version, and it really makes use of that second UMD. Third, meanwhile, sparked rather different accusations. | |

Wham Episode | |

Wham Episode: The end of First Chapter. Joshua is the Black Fang of Ouroboros, he remembers the death of his family, he's been an unwitting mole since the opening text boxes of the game and is/was a pawn of Weissmann. He leaves Estelle behind so that he can... settle things. At the very end, Estelle sets off after him. This one left people spinning when the game was first released, and marked the point at which the main narrative started to get a lot darker. The effect was especially pronounced as Falcom had given no indication that the game was anything but a stand-alone title. | |

Renne and Tita as The Evil Genius and The Smart Guy, as well as being the Token Mini-Moe on their respective teams. Walter and Zin filling the roles of The Brute and The Big Guy. Both were also students of an Eastern martial arts style and studied under the same teacher. Luciola and Scherazard as The Heart. They were also both members of the Harvey troupe before it disbanded.

Absurdly High Level Cap | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_91526ff7 | comment |
Absurdly High Level Cap: FC's level cap is 49, but the Final Boss can be defeated in the mid 30's, even on Nightmare, and actually grinding to 49 is a tedious process as all encounters will start giving 1 exp long before then. And it's pointless to go that high, as while Estelle's level transfers to SC with an Old Save Bonus, it's capped at 40. This is joked about in The 3rd's Pop Quiz minigame. Subverted in SC and The 3rd, with level caps of 99 and 150 respectively, which you're likely to be close to by the endgame. | |

Estelle gives a similar speech against the true Big Bad, Georg Weissmann, who, unlike Richard, does consider himself this and claims he needs the Aureole to control humanity and save it from itself. Estelle denies this, countering that she's seen how people would work together to deal with a nation-wide power outage, and that they don't need a higher power to survive, just the ability to care for each other. Besides, to her, a life being purely governed by Ubermensch intelligence without the bonds shared with each other would be awful. | |

Adventure Guild | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_975a5be8 | comment |
Adventure Guild: The Bracer Guild is a highly professional adventurers' guild. They will take nearly any ethical request from people, whether it be something as violent as exterminating a dangerous monster, something as simple as looking for a lost ring, or something as complex as geopolitical negotiations. Most requests are posted on a board on the first floor of the local guildhouse, and the typical MO of a Bracer is to check the board every day for new requests and work on them. What sets the Bracer Guild apart from other examples of the trope is their professionalism: they have high standards for membership, requiring prospective Bracers to first pass an exam that tests both their skills and their ethical commitment, and then new Bracers must go through a probationary period until they achieve full-fledged status, which requires they receive a recommendation from every guild branch in the country. The guild also has strong ethical standards; for instance, the safety of civilians takes absolute highest priority: any request that would harm civilians is rejected, and Bracers are forbidden from harming civilians or allowing civilians to come to harm. | |

In order to win this fight, you need to have a good set-up, good tactics, good turn bonuses, and pray that your opponent doesn't spam his best moves, Earth Guard EX and Tearal. In SC, Loewe as a boss will summon powerful clones that cannot be inflicted with any stat down effects, which he'll decide to do with a random frequency. If he summons only one clone, he's fairly easy to tank with Earth Wall spam, but if he summons more, he'll easily rip the player's defenses apart. The prologue chapter in SC is notorious for being one of the hardest sections of any Trails game when doing an N3G ("No New Game+ Nightmare) run for all the wrong reasons. Due to the limited resources, it is extremely easy to make the prologue completely unwinnable by burning through your best items early. Even with a perfect set-up and proper use of items, success is heavily based on luck - if the enemy targets one of your characters too often or if they abuse their best moves, it is completely impossible to win and defeating the first few minibosses can take several dozen attempts. Something as simple as missing one attack can spell the difference between victory and defeat. The Divine Penguin sidequest boss in SC begins with a preemptive strike for the enemy... and you have an NPC to protect. If all the enemies decide to attack him, you'll get a Game Over before your party had a chance to act. The Save the Miners hidden sidequest in Chapter VIII of SC. It's basically a bunch of battles which place a civilian in your battle between you and the monsters. If the monsters gets to go first and they gang up on the civilian... The battle to save Josette on the Ark to during the Finale. Again, you better pray that the monsters don't get first dibs and gang up on Josette. Sun Door 2 in The 3rd, especially part 3. Take the trilogy's already finicky fishing mechanics and combine it with a minigame where you have to get the most points by catching bigger fish than your opponents. In part 3 of the minigame you basically have to hope that your opponent fails more often than you, especially since he can sometimes catch the larger fish without having caught the necessary fish to use as bait first. You basically have to hope the RNG works in your favor for him to fail to catch fish as well. | |

Saintly Church | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_99390db0 | comment |
Saintly Church: One of the most believable aspects of the setting is that the Septian Church is, by and large, a benevolent organization and doesn't really meddle with massive plots at all in FC or SC. Its clergymen clearly believe what they preach, are peaceful, benevolent presences in their towns (they even teach school for most people), and they even act as obvious allies to our heroes in FC when the Grancel Cathedral gives knowing shelter to Julia while she's a fugitive from Col. Richard's coup. Nearly all the characters are faithful to a greater or lesser degree, as well, with invocations to Eidos/Aidios relatively common in places you'd expect a real life person to invoke God. There's ultimately nothing sinister about the church in FC or SC. Third makes it a little more complicated, although in that case we're dealing more with the Church as a continent-wide organization and Kevin's place in it, with the general message being: "in an organization as large as this, and based on beliefs as fundamental as this, you are always going to have disagreements about how best to defend those beliefs". | |

Difficult, but Awesome | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb | comment |
Difficult, but Awesome: The Arts system is fairly complex, requiring specific Quartz combinations all in a line to get you certain skills, and it doesn't help that different characters have different line setups. Combined with how quickly they drain EP, the turn delay in executing them, and endgame enemies having moves to cancel Arts, first-time players are likely to ignore them in favour of Crafts and physical attacks other than having basic healing moves. However, those who understand the system can get very powerful Area of Effect Arts such as White Gehenna early on, and Hard and Nightmare require a good understanding of the Arts system to beat the game due to physical damage being significantly nerfed at those difficulties. | |

Interface Spoiler | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_9cb3e22e | comment |
Interface Spoiler: Josette, Anelace and Kurt are all voiced when you face them in combat in FC, despite their compatriots not being voiced and despite them not joining the party proper. Three guesses as to what happens in SC, and the first two don't count. Early on in SC, the Ruan weapon shop selling pistols will probably tip you off to which character will join you soon. On a related note, the fact that said shop doesn't sell crossbows is an indicator that another character isn't going to stick around in your party just yet... When Renne joins you as an NPC, you will probably notice that she somehow has a whopping 10202 HP. It all makes sense at the end of the chapter. A strange example due to the 10 year gap in localization of the PC versions and the proliferation of widescreen monitors and televisions, all games in the series reveal a bit more on the edges of the screen. While this mostly culminates in sprites oddly popping in and out or being visible before they should, certain reveals like the green dragon at the end of Chapter 4 end up happening too soon. In all three titles, the initial loading screen (before the title screen) shows strictly playable characters in the upper left corner performing a short animation. These include characters who may not yet have joined the party. | |

Used as Foreshadowing with Professor Alba. Alba is Latin for "white", his real surname Weissmann is German for "white man", and his nickname "the Faceless" is written with the kanji for "white face" in the Japanese script. At the end of Sky SC, he gets turned to salt. Fitting that a man who has three names that mean "white" in three different languages ends up as a white substance. | |

Sarcastic Confession | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_a036d3df | comment |
Sarcastic Confession: A subtle and easily missed, but extremely clever one. At the end of Chapter 1 in SC, Kloe and Estelle reminisce about their role as knights in the festival play and Olivier promptly adds in that his role must be "the long, wandering prince from a nearby country, here to take back the dark-haired princess, even if by force." Everyone - likely including the player - pretty much chalks it up to Olivier being... well, Oliver, but it turns out he's actually perfectly describing himself. As the player discovers later in the game, Olivier IS a wandering prince from a nearby country (Erebonia) who was sent to Liberl to take a dark-haired princess (Kloe), first as part of an arranged marriage, then as part of a hostile takeover plan. | |

Also reappears in the final dungeon of The 3rd when Castle of Illusions <Phantasmagoria> plays from the minute you enter the final dungeon to the minute your parties reach the end of their respective areas. A non-story related example happens if a character drops to critical health or is defeated. The normally jaunty battle music is replaced with a more desperate remix. | |

| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_a0db7803 | comment |
It's Personal: Each Enforcer has a personal conflict with various party members. Downplayed with Bleublanc, who is obsessed with Kloe's beauty and considers Olivier a rival. However, his main goal is to see the beauty of humanity struggling against Ouroboros and attempt to steal their hope. Walter was once a fellow Taito student with Zin, but adopted the Murderer's Fist and killed their master in a deathmatch, who refused to name him as the successor. While Zin doesn't hold a grudge for that match, which their master agreed to, he still wants to know exactly why the deathmatch happened in the first place and he also wants to use his Living Fist to defeat Walter's Murderer's Fist. Likewise, Walter is bothered by Ryuga's claim that Zin is more talented, but unconsciously holds back. Estelle is concerned about Renne's status as an Ax-Crazy child soldier for Ouroboros. Likewise, Renne wants to kill her for leading Joshua away from Ouroboros and questioning her brutal way of life. Schera and Luciola were once as close as siblings while working in Harvey's Circus, but the latter killed their ringmaster when he disbanded the troupe. However, Luciola was secretly concerned about leaving Schera behind and is happy when Schera survives both of their fights, proving that she can survive despite the abandonment. Joshua and Loewe were both survivors of Hamel's massacre, leading them to join Ouroboros. While Joshua ends up leaving Ouroboros, Loewe stays in order to see if humanity can face disaster without becoming complacent and forgetting their grim pasts. Additionally, Joshua realizes that when he went into a Heroic BSoD after Hamel, he fits Loewe's description of a self-deluded human, motivating him to find an answer to Loewe's trial. | |

MacGuffin: The Black Orbment in FC, Aureole in SC and the Arca of Recluse in Third. It's somewhat debatable whether these qualify since they all do come up again, explain some facet or facets of the plot or explain absolutely everything about The 3rd. The differing powers of the Sept-Terrion also lead this trilogy to have a very different sort of story than the next games. Oh, and Ouroboros clearly wants all seven so presumably there's something that can only be done once they have them making them a continuing plot element. | |

Obfuscating Stupidity | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_a7aef9ff | comment |
Obfuscating Stupidity: Professor Alba does an excellent job of keeping up the facade of an underpaid archeologist, while actually being an Anguis of Ouroboros. Olivier is the Handsome Lech type, though he has ties to a number of Erebonian nobles, including the Sky Bandits. The real wham happens when we find out he's actually Olivert Reise Arnor, an illegitimate son of the Erebonian Emperor. Kevin actually pulls this twice. First he acts like a humble priest, and when that fails identifies himself as a Gralsritter — a sort of covert inquisitor for the Septian Church. But it is further revealed at the end of SC that he is the Gralsritter's Fifth Dominion, making him one of the most powerful people in all of Zemuria Renne fronts herself as an innocent, mischievous girl who ended up separated from her parents. It turns out she's an enforcer for the the society. Lechter in the third game who is just a happy-go-lucky slacker of a student council president of a royal academy turns out to be an Intelligence Agent for Erebonia and is one of the Ironbloods. | |

Fatal Flaw | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_aba8065b | comment |
Richard's Fatal Flaw is that he idolized Cassius Bright as one of these, to the point that when he left the military, he thought himself too weak to ever live up to his legacy and believed that relying on a miracle, i.e. The Aureole, an ancient superweapon, was the only way he could protect his country. In other words, his misguided idealization of Cassius causes him to commit to a course of action that, as shown by happens to Crossbell and North Ambria in the following two arcs, would likely have massively backfired had he been in charge when the Tetracyclic Towers were deactivated. Estelle chews him out for this, pointing out that her father didn't single-handedly win the war by himself. People from all over the country working together were essential to make his plan work, and she even points out that he himself was one of them. And that, to her, was the real miracle. Cassius himself shows up after the final boss fight to chew out Richard for giving him undeserved credit even though he was a flawed man who ran away when things got tough. This Let's Play annotates the game's dialogue with explanations of how it argues against the notion of the lone hero, and how its rich backstory shows that the deconstruction is more than just talk. | |

Final Boss | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_ad4a45be | comment |
FC's level cap is 49, but the Final Boss can be defeated in the mid 30's, even on Nightmare, and actually grinding to 49 is a tedious process as all encounters will start giving 1 exp long before then. And it's pointless to go that high, as while Estelle's level transfers to SC with an Old Save Bonus, it's capped at 40. This is joked about in The 3rd's Pop Quiz minigame. | |

All-Powerful Bystander | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_adb98918 | comment |
All-Powerful Bystander: Cassius Bright. An ex-Master Swordsman and the strongest Bracer in Liberl, he managed to Curb Stomp the final boss of FC. The earth trembles when he spins his rod. Second strongest character in the trilogy after Loewe according to the author. In fact, he's so broken that the Big Bad's plan is to set up a disaster in a different country so Cassius wouldn't disturb him. He is considered such a Memetic Badass that Alan Richard honestly believed that if Cassius hadn't left the army, his plan to launch a coup and militarize Liberl to deter their more powerful neighbors from considering invasion would not have been necessary. Interestingly, though, Cassius doesn't see himself this way; as far as he's concerned, he's a gigantic fuckup who deserves to live the life of an outcast because of what he failed to do... namely, save his wife. | |

Convection, Schmonvection: The lava-filled Phantasma recreation of Balstar Channel plays this straight. You'll only be harmed when you step on the lava directly, although the damage adds up very fast unless you equip special protective gear that reduces the damage. Ultimately justified via Fridge Brilliance as Phantasma is a virtual realm that was originally created in part to grant the wishes and fantasies of the people of Liber Ark so it makes sense that it would operate on video game logic. | |

Epic Fail | |

Epic Fail: Towards the end of SC, a secondary Ouroboros leader attacks the Jenis Academy in order to kidnap Princess Klaudia, who he had learned was attending the school under an alias. Said secondary leader forgets to first make sure that he knows what the princess looks like, and to check to see if she's even on campus at the time of the attack, thus leading him to grab the wrong girl while believing that she's somebody who isn't even in that part of the country at the time. When an Ouroboros Enforcer shows up after the hostages are rescued, he actually apologizes for the whole mess. | |

Heads I Win, Tails You Lose: After defeating each of the Enforcers on top of the four towers in SC, the Gospels they have plugged into the towers shut off, and the Enforcers withdraw. The party thinks that this means that they're making progress, until the end of the chapter, when it turns out the Gospels shut down because they were finished with what they were doing, and the villain's plan continues to the next stage. | |

To Be a Master | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_b51ffd20 | comment |
To Be a Master: The goal of the first game is for Estelle and Joshua to become master Bracers. Played with in that contrary to the child prodigies the main characters usually end up as in stories like these, being the best in the Trails universe requires years of experience akin to becoming a Black Belt in martial arts, and even if you, the player, get the highest rank, they're still only Juniors getting promoted to Senior at the end of the game. In SC, you can ascend all the way to A-Rank if you do every mission virtually perfect, and a certain character at the end of Chapter 8 will express shock that Estelle managed to reach that rank at such a young age (though her canon rank is B). However, getting S-Rank, which is reserved for absolute legends of which there are only 4 in the entire of Zemuria the only revealed one being Cassius Bright, is impossible in the scope of the game. Also, this is gameplay-only, as SC otherwise subverts this since Estelle has more pressing matters to attend to, namely finding Joshua and dealing with Ouroboros. | |

Shadow Archetype: Joshua and Renne. Joshua even acknowledges this openly; to him, Renne represents everything he could have been had he not lost to Cassius and met the Brights. This is largely what fuels his ardent desire to help her; her behavior is so radically different from his own, but he could have been just like her - even fighting at her side! - had his life turned out even a little differently. | |

One Stat to Rule Them All: While it's certainly important to have enough STR and ATS to deal damage, SPD is by far the most important stat due to the conditional turned-based system. Being able to get more turns than the enemy is important in Earth Wall strategies and higher SPD means buffs will last longer. | |

The Proxy Puppet was originally Migawari Muppet, with Migawari roughly meaning Proxynote or Stand-in, or Scapegoat. The second word was changed both to keep the Alliterative Name and to avoid stepping on a trademark. "Muppet" was also changed to "Puppet" for the Emergency Puppet as well, which was Dotanbanote Eleventh Hour Muppet in the Japanese script. | |

Walter was once a fellow Taito student with Zin, but adopted the Murderer's Fist and killed their master in a deathmatch, who refused to name him as the successor. While Zin doesn't hold a grudge for that match, which their master agreed to, he still wants to know exactly why the deathmatch happened in the first place and he also wants to use his Living Fist to defeat Walter's Murderer's Fist. Likewise, Walter is bothered by Ryuga's claim that Zin is more talented, but unconsciously holds back. | |

| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_c053f1fc | comment |
Required Party Member: This occurs frequently over the course of the SC, starting with the fact that Estelle must always be in the party. In Chapter 4, Scherazard is locked into the party during events in Rolent. During one forced encounter, Kloe and Tita are also locked in. In Chapter 5, Agate is locked in for the start, Tita is locked in for the middle, and then both Agate and Tita are required for the end. Midway through Chapter 6, Kevin is a forced party member for a dungeon. From the climax of Chapter 6 to the end of the game, Joshua is a mandatory party member. During the Plot Tunnel in Chapter 7, the second area visited requires Zin, and the third requires Scherazard. The Jenis Royal Academy sidequest in Chapter 8 forces the party of Estelle, Anelace, Kurt, and Joshua. In the final chapter, Josette (who unfortunately suffers from Late Character Syndrome) is required to be in the party for a dungeon, but can be replaced before The Very Definitely Final Dungeon. | |

Jurisdiction Friction | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_c2676b00 | comment |
Jurisdiction Friction: In theory, Liberl's army and the Bracer Guild cooperate with each other. Underneath the surface, however, there's a lot of disputes. Your two main characters, Joshua and Estelle, learn this firsthand when investigating the missing airline their father Cassius Bright was on and discover from the Bose Bracer Guild that the military is maintaining a public information blackout, and that includes the Bracer Guild. Furthermore, a notoriously stubborn general infamous for his hatred of the Bracer Guild is calling the shots, meaning bracers are being prevented from entering the areas the army is investigating. Jurisdiction friction even happens within the ranks of the Bracer Guild itself. If a senior bracer wishes to take control of an investigation that was being handled by junior bracers, they can do so at will, and there's not much the junior bracers can do about it, no matter how much they may dislike it. | |

Never Gets Drunk | |

Never Gets Drunk: Aina drank 36 shots of liquor in one sitting, showing no signs of intoxication aside from the smell. Anton and Olivier challenged her at 18 apiece, and even under the influence of anti-drunkenness medicine both passed out. | |

The Silver Earring and Pearl Earring accessories were originally written with different wasei-eigo words for "Earring"note Silver ピアス and Pearl イヤリング and got flattened to the same word in the localization.

Ries's weapons: Reikennote Mystic Sword Silvahn was shortened to just Silvahn. Saint Choir was changed to Holy Choirnote Japanese media as a whole has a habit of using the English word "Saint" as an adjective meaning "Holy". Rot Himmel was changed to Roten Himmel. Neither of these are correct German grammar, which should be either Roter Himmel or Der Rote Himmel. One of Kloe and Julia's weapons in The 3rd was changed from Akasha Heart to Akashic Heart.

Offscreen Moment of Awesome: In SC The Enforcers attack Grancel Castle, Philip moves forward and reveals himself to be the former commander of the Royal Guard, everyone prepares for a fight...and then the scene shifts back to our heroes and we only see the aftermath. Both Loewe and Rufina separately mention that they encountered the other several years ago in an incident that was resolved to their mutual satisfaction. Given the parties involved, the awesomeness is a given. | |

Metal Slime: Shining Poms. The only things that can reliably kill them are certain S-Crafts and spells that have a chance of inflicting instant death. But killing one yields a lot of sepith. In SC they can also give enough XP for an underleveled character to go up multiple levels after killing one. An optional dungeon in The 3rd lets you fight a group of them as the final bosses of the dungeon that are so powerful that even some S-Crafts can't beat them unless your strength is properly buffed up. | |

The Game Never Stopped: In SC, during the prologue the Bracer training lodge is attacked by Jaegers just after Estelle and Anelace finish the training. After being kidnapped and left in the woods, making their way back to the lodge, finding the fort the enemy have taken over, and defeating the Jaeger forces... the Jaegers take off their helmets to reveal they were actually their instructors, although people who played the previous game could figure it out since they use the same weapons as the bracers from the Tournament Arc. The reason for the ruse was because the Bracer guild was on unfriendly terms with them anywhere outside of Liberl - and there only because Jaegers can't legally operate in Liberl. | |

| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_d02a0c91 | comment |
There Are No Coincidences: The Erebonian Empire just happened to have spent years secretly developing steam-powered tanks with gunpowder weapons, which would be utterly useless against orbal tanks... and then Ouroboros summoning the Liber Ark causes every orbment in Liberl to suddenly stop working. Olivier flat out states that there was no way anyone could have foreseen a use for steam tanks unless they knew that there was a way to make orbments break down in large quantities... which means that Chancellor Osborne of the Erebonian Empire is connected to Ouroboros and knew enough of their plans to start planning to take advantage of them years in advance. | |

Multiple Government Polity | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_d27471a7 | comment |
Multiple Government Polity: The Kingdom of Liberl is a traditional hereditary monarchy ruled by a queen. It's divided into five regions made up of a capital city and the surrounding villages and farms. Each city is run by a mayor, but the position varies in the different regions; Ruan's leadership is explicitly run by a hereditary nobility (and experiments with democracy after the mayor is arrested and stripped of his position without an heir), and Zeiss is a corporate dominion run by the local Central Factory and doesn't have a mayor (the factory's director also handles governance.) Meanwhile, Grancel is the seat of the national government and is therefor governed directly by the Liberl queen and doesn't have a local government. According to FC, much of the governance is performed not by Queen Alicia herself but by a team of bureaucrats who work in the castle; while how these bureaucrats are chosen is unknown, Olivier says in SC "While Liberl is, in practice, a democracy, remember that it is still a constitutional monarchy." | |

Weapon for Intimidation | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_d68762ef | comment |
Weapon for Intimidation: Star Door 8 of the third game has some of the characters speculate that Chancellor Osborne's plan to invade Liberl was more about showing off Erebonia's military might to the rest of the world rather than actually invading Liberl. The fact that the Imperial Army had functioning tanks despite the Orbal Shutdown Phenomenon rendering all orbal technology useless makes them seem Crazy-Prepared to the rest of the world, meaning even if something like that were to happen again, Erebonia would be able to handle it. | |

Quartz stat bonuses are unaffected by Orbal Shutdown Phenomenon for some reason. This is likely an Anti-Frustration Feature, as stats suddenly tanking would make an already-difficult chapter even worse. | |

Original Generation | |

Might be intentional since The 3rd was released shortly after PSP version of Legend Of Heroes V, but the whole point of the game is similar to Legend Of Heroes V's Tuning Forks Special Scenario. You get party members from clearing a dungeon or moving to the next chapter, can team up with the entire playables of the previous two games along with Original Generation, involves a boss rush, and a massive amount of grinding is required to reach 100% Completion. | |

Company Cross References: A Falcom staple. A number to Falcom's other RPG franchise Ys: One can't really help but suspect that Anelace's outfit was intentionally designed to resemble Adol's "classic" armor. On the Glorious, after Estelle tries and fails to break down an electrified pillar barrier with her staff: One of the empty chest messages in Sky SC is "You see a heart carved around 'Adol + Dogi.' Where did this chest COME from?" Another of the empty chest messages in Sky SC is "Dogi the Wall Crusher's got nothing on Estelle the Treasure Taker." One of the empty chest messages in Sky the 3rd is "My favorite character is Chester from Ys: The Oath in Felghana." A few to the Gagharv Trilogy: The in-universe novel The Doll Knight from Song of the Ocean can be read in its entirety in Sky SC. The Thirteen Factories get their name from a single line in the aforementioned The Doll Knight. A painting of the Gagharv appears in Sky the 3rd. | |

If Agate is actually in your current party... | |

Breakout Character | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_da0eeab5 | comment |
Breakout Character: Kevin becomes the main character of The Third; it might be said that the reason why it's called The Third and not Third Chapter was because Estelle and Joshua aren't really the main characters anymore. Loewe. Despite the fact that he died in SC, Falcom (sort of) brought him back in The Third. Then you have Vantage Master Portable where he and Renne become playable main characters instead of other party members. It's even worse in Alternative Saga in which he appears without any explanation despite being dead, though that turned out to be non-canonical. Loewe also got his own sidestory manga. | |

A large part of the second game is devoted to Estelle pulling him back from this. Kevin crossed it when he killed Rufina, this marked the point where he abandoned all his humanity and became "the Heretic Hunter"... all to punish himself. | |

Story to Gameplay Ratio | |

Story to Gameplay Ratio: The first game definitely falls on the side of Story > Gameplay, with the gameplay present being fairly simplistic. The second game expands the play aspect a bit while not sacrificing story at all. (in fact, SC's word count is a whopping 716,401, about 20% more than War and Peace) Overall, the series still lands on the "story rich" end of the spectrum. | |

Wolfpack Boss | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_e57bd3dd | comment |
Wolfpack Boss: Several of the monster hunt requests feature difficult battles against multiple Elite Mooks. Josette, Kyle, and Don are the bosses of Chapter 1 of FC. The Martial Arts tournament features several team based battles. The first opponents are the Ravens while the second opponents are Kurt, Carna, Grant, and Anelace. The last team is the Intelligence Division, though this is more of a Flunky Boss with Lorence at the lead. In SC, the Ravens attempt another one of these fights in Chapter 1 in their warehouse. In The 3rd, Walter, Bleublanc, and Lucciola form the penultimate boss battle of the Black Ark. Weissmann, Rostrum, and Astarte are the bosses of Chapter 7 of The 3rd. Every boss fight in the series comes with at least two Elite Mooks to back them up. In fact, that two specific fights avert this while being That One Boss examples show how good said characters are, that they can fight an entire party single-handedly with no backup of their own. | |

Big Damn Heroes: FC's final chapter. The princess is rescued but a little girl has been taken hostage. Cue the arrival of Schera, who we haven't seen since a quarter of the way into the game. SC raises the bar by having this happen with all your allies near the end of the game. After Weissmann injures Loewe and makes off with Joshua, a pair of TM Dragion units show up to menace your party. Cue a massive volley of fire from offscreen, followed by Professor Russell, your unused party members and the Capuas who distract the enemies while your party makes a break for it. In the end of SC, Estelle and Joshua fall from Liber Ark but are saved by Cassius, riding a magical dragon. The 3rd manages to take the SC scene and crank it up even further as everyone storms Hell (sort of) to free Kevin and Ries...and Gilbert. | |

The Battle Didn't Count | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_ee3438ee | comment |
SC takes this trope up to eleven as Ouroboros enforcers always stand upright and talk with the party after every battle, while always having some means of escape. Even Weissman does this after you fight him and his two One-Winged Angel forms, and it's Father Kevin who corners and executes him without Estelle or Joshua's knowledge. | |

Last Episode, New Character: Just about all the new characters in The 3rd. But Ries and Lechter stand out from the rest, especially since there's no hint whatsoever about their existence and their roles in the next series are enormous. The others (Rufina, Ein, and Osborne) do come up a few times during FC and SC. | |

Anti-Grinding | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_f11c3835 | comment |
Anti-Grinding: Like many other Falcom games, every enemy you can fight has a level, and once you are at or above the level of the enemy, the XP reward for beating it starts going down until you eventually reach 1XP/enemy. However, the XP needed to gain a level tends to be much lower than in other Falcom games (Such as Ys), so it's still possible to gain a few levels over the course of the game even when everything only provides 1 XP. | |

Char Clone | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_f3be7f62 | comment |
Char Clone: Lorence Belgar in FC is a pale-haired, mask-wearing Enigmatic Minion who has his own hidden agenda that the main villain is unaware of. He even wears red, though in Lorence's case it's only his mask that's red, while everything Char wears except for his mask is red. We later learn that, just like Char, the name he uses initially is only an alias and that his true identity is an elder brother figure to the story's deuteragonist. | |

Wake-Up Call Boss | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_f4a0408f | comment |
Wake-Up Call Boss: Kurt serves as the first boss of SC, which is appropriate since the entire prologue is a training exercise. His fight is emblematic of how much harder SC is compared to FC, and many players have restarted the game on Normal instead of Hard because of him. In The 3rd, Rostrum, the boss of the 2nd plane, is the first boss that requires a decent Quartz setup to beat, especially on Nightmare. Its damage output is far too high for healing or defense buffs to match (it's Strength is almost double that of the next major boss), so an Earth Wall user is necessary, and without Action 2 and Cast 2 Quartz you won't be able to cast it, and other buffs, before your party is wiped. You can get by without synthesizing new Quartz until this point, but Rostrum will make sure you do. | |

Disc-One Final Dungeon | |
| The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Video Game) / int_f55a1990 | comment |
Disc-One Final Dungeon: Interestingly played with. When the game was originally in development as a single unit, it's clear that the ruins beneath Castle Grancel were going to be this; sure, you rescued the queen, beat Col. Richard and saved the kingdom but clearly not everything was answered and it would serve as what would in other games be the "big twist point" when the real villain was revealed and whatnot. Once the project got too big to contain in one game, though, it was chosen to be the actual final dungeon of FC, meaning it is and isn't a final dungeon; it's the end of FC, sure, but it's barely the beginning of the real story. Played straight in SC with the airship Glorious. | |

Cool Big Sis: Estelle sees Scherazard as this. In the Japanese script, she always addresses Schera as Schera-nee; the suffix -nee means "big sis". In SC, after Schera offers words of encouragement to Estelle, Estelle responds with "Ahaha, you really are my big sister, Schera.", and in a flashback to Estelle's childhood we find that Schera used to hang out at Estelle's house and play with her whenever she was in town, with Estelle's parents treating her like a second daughter. | |

Series Fauxnale: Trails in the Sky SC was the originally intended conclusion to the story arc that began in the first game, with the entire central conflict being resolved. Trails in the Sky the 3rd is more of a Dénouement Episode that serves to expand on certain supporting characters (such as Kevin Graham, who takes over the leading role from Estelle and Joshua) and flesh out the series' universe. | |

Beware the Nice Ones | |

Beware the Nice Ones: Joshua may look a bit girly, but he's called "The Black Fang" because he is that dangerous. He's usually a pretty chill, nice dude, but if you threaten to harm Estelle? Aidios help you. The mayor of Ruan learns this the hard way in FC, which even freaks Estelle out a little. Renne often comes across as sweet and cuddly, even after The Reveal about her. She's also the most emotionally disturbed member of the entire cast, with accompanying violence. This applies to Leonhardt, too, even when he's posing as "Lorence". He is capable of being disarmingly nice and polite, even when you're actively fighting him. | |

Cutscene Power to the Max: Somehow, Zin and Joshua are able to duel and defeat Walter and Loewe, respectively, even though both can hold off the entire party in their boss fights. This is explained by the bosses being tired after their fights, but the same could be said of the heroes. Nearly every character (on both sides) gets at least one chance to show off outside of battle, but Joshua arguably gets the most of these scenes. It is justified surprisingly well, as they often relate to stealth and characters acknowledge that Joshua is vulnerable out in open combat. | |

Sister Carnelia, the supporting character in the eponymous story-within-a-story found on the bookshelves in the Erebonian embassy, also qualifies. At the end of the tale, she rapidly dispatches a group of Jaegers, which the game's story regards as more powerful than the heroes at the beginning of SC. | |
