The Eyes Have It
After being devastated upon the ending of Sen no Kiseki III, I had to stop and take a step back to disengage and get myself together again. Somehow, it seems to help to look at things with a bigger scope than I would have as disaster was happening one after another.
In the process, I came across something that has been around for quite awhile in the series- a pattern that’s been seeded since First Chapter came out.
This theory will cross over much of the entire series- as a result, there will be tags across all the games.

[Admin] Site Changelog and Projects Page Made Public
Hello, everyone!
Instead of working on the several crack posts that I have to finish, I ended up doing some work on the backend of the website.
I made an attempt to create the exclusionary filter that I’ve been promising for over a year, but the on site experiments for it have failed. As a result, it’s time to go back to the drawing board and try to figure things out again.
But this is also a good jumping point to introduce a page for the site that I’ve been working on since it migrated to esterior.net. This page is where any projects that I am working on for the site will be publicly posted, such as the exclusionary filter that I mentioned above. On this page, you can also see the changelog based on any major updates that have happened on the backend, as well.
If a project comes up that requires funding, the possibility may be opened for regular readers of the site to be able to pitch in directly to funding that feature, and then they will receive credit on the page when the feature goes live.
You can find the page here, or in the dropdown for ‘about this site.’
Engraving of War
My attempt at rationalizing the bonkers game that is Sen III, featuring the favorite word of the first two games: “Power”, and the favorite of the third game: “Curse”.
Erebonia’s Black History, Volume 2
In Erebonia, the present continues to be haunted by the past. Shocking events repeat themselves beyond memories of citizens. The Black Records records these forgotten moments of history. In addition to the previously published five volumes in Trails of Cold Steel II, Sen no Kiseki III introduces seven more, each intriguing in its own way.
Sen III’s New Questions
A list of some of the new questions brought up in Sen III, sorted by topic. May be updated in the future.

One last look at Erebonia and its parallels before the madness of CS3.
Dreichels Once Again
Unlike my Wald prediction, this one should be short and sweet, but I feel it is necessary to post it so that I have it time stamped before Sen no Kiseki III comes out this week.
I believe that we’ll see a repeat of the chain of events for Dreichels in a strangely similar fashion, as time seems to be interested in repeating itself.
But while similar events are happening, they are not exactly the same. Click the cut to find out more detail on this idea.
