Nate: stub

Nate: and this is why i should remember to preview

Characters in [[Dragon Warrior IV]] sometimes refer to an '''Evil Force''', in the following quotes:

<dl>
<dt style="font-weight:normal;">Prophetess at [[House of Prophecy]], to [[Mara]] and [[Nara]]:</dt>
<dd style="font-style:italic; background-color:#eee; font-family:monospace;">The [[Balzack|man you seek revenge upon]] is protected by a tremendous evil force.</dd>
<dt style="font-weight:normal;">[[Ragnar]] in [[Keeleon]] Castle:</dt>
<dd style="font-style:italic; background-color:#eee; font-family:monospace;">I hear the ones in this room belong to the evil force which plans to destroy the world!</dd>
<dt style="font-weight:normal;">Monster in [[Santeem]], after the party kills [[Balzack]]:</dt>
<dd style="font-style:italic; background-color:#eee; font-family:monospace;">It's said the [[Golden Bracelet]] amplifies the evil force!</dd>
<dt style="font-weight:normal;">Other monster, same place:</dt>
<dd style="font-style:italic; background-color:#eee; font-family:monospace;">When we obtain the [[Golden Bracelet]] and perfect the [[Secret of Evolution]]... our time, the time of the evil force, will come! Ha, Ha, Ha!</dd>
<dt style="font-weight:normal;">Monster in [[Dire Palace]], when party appears to be monsters:</dt>
<dd style="font-style:italic; background-color:#eee; font-family:monospace;">[[Santeem]]'s King is unlucky! His dream revealed that men would inadvertently aid [[Esturk]]'s resurrection... and he tried to stop the excavation at [[Aktemto]]. That's why he was probably crushed by the evil force. Even we monsters didn't guess [[Esturk]] was imprisoned there.</dd>

It appears that "Evil Force" can mean any of these:
* Distortion or acceleration of natural evolution (the "[[Secret of Evolution]]")
* A powerful force that supports the monsters and "evil", possibly [[Esturk]]'s spirit
* The forces of evil as a whole, including [[Esturk]], the other ''evil'' monsters, and eventually [[Necrosaro]]

2008-11-29T14:12:35Z

Nate: little fixup, i need to check what's considered 'minor'

The characters (mostly monsters) in [[Dragon Warrior IV]] sometimes refer to an '''Evil Force''', like so:

Prophetess at [[House of Prophecy]]:
The [[Balzack|man you seek revenge upon]] is protected by a tremendous evil force.

[[Ragnar]] in [[Keeleon]] Castle:
I hear the ones in this room belong to the evil force which plans to destroy the world!

Monster in [[Santeem]], after killing [[Balzack]]:
It's said the [[Golden Bracelet]] amplifies the evil force!

Other monster, same place:
When we obtain the [[Golden Bracelet]] and perfect the [[Secret of Evolution]]... our time, the time of the evil force, will come! Ha, Ha, Ha!

Monster in [[Dire Palace]]:
Santeem's King is unlucky!
His dream revealed that men would inadvertently aid Esturk's resurrection...
and he tried to stop the excavation at Aktemto. That's why he was probably crushed by the evil force.
Even we monsters didn't guess Esturk was imprisoned there.

It appears that "Evil Force" refers to either:
* Distortion or acceleration of natural evolution (the "[[Secret of Evolution]]")
* A powerful force that supports the monsters and "evil", possibly [[Esturk]]'s spirit
* The forces of evil as a whole, including Esturk, the other evil monsters, and eventually Necrosaro

Talk:Aktempto Mine

2008-11-29T13:56:56Z

Nate:

Xuande, a question, if you don't mind:

is it Aktempto in a remake, or is this a typo? I really don't know, haven't played anything but the NES version.

oh, and do you think the [[Aktemto]] entry is OK? (never edited a wiki before ;-)

Thanks,

Aktemto Mine

2008-11-29T13:51:27Z

Nate: first edit...

'''Aktemto Mine''' is the [[gunpowder]] producing mine that is located under [[Aktemto]] town, and above [[Esturk's castle]].

The miners hope to find [[gold]] here, but succeed only in finding their own deaths...

Aktemto

2008-11-29T13:47:59Z

Nate: aw crap, fix italics + one other edit

'''Aktemto''' is a mining town in [[Dragon Warrior IV]] in which most of the people are sick due to digging far into the earth and uncovering [[Esturk's palace]] -- releasing poison gas, which flooded the [[mine]] and the entire town. With the gas came monsters, and the town became a dangerous place to live.

The miners keep digging deeper, disregarding the dangers, with hopes of discovering [[gold]].

The [[Santeem|King of Santeem]] attempted to stop the excavation and mining, as his gift of foresight told him men would aid [[Esturk]]'s resurrection, but an [[Evil Force|"evil force"]] (probably [[Esturk]], as the other monsters didn't know what was beneath the mine) removed [[Santeem|King Santeem]] and his entire castle's population.

[[Aktemto Mine]] is the only known producer of [[gunpowder]], although that hasn't been done in a while ([[Keeleon|King Keeleon]] apparently prohibited its manufacture). The [[Gunpowder Jar|only remaining stash]] can make a loud noise, but is too old and damp to do any damage...

This town is visited several times over the course of [[Dragon Warrior IV|the game]], steadily worsening in condition as more of the miners and others become sick and die from the poisonous gas and monster attacks.

By the end, only five living residents remain; one of these is almost gone, having finally reached [[Esturk]]'s palace.

Finally, this town uses the same music that plays when you are killed -- the whole place has an atmosphere of despair and foreboding about it.

Nate: redirect

#REDIRECT [[Gunpowder Jar]]

Keeleon

2008-11-29T13:17:14Z

Nate: should be ok for now, probably wants disambiguation? somebody?

'''Keeleon''' refers to several related things in [[Dragon Warrior IV]].

It is a country in the world of [[Dragon Warrior IV]], the country's capital, the capital's castle, and the true King's name as well. Keeleon is ruled by King [[Balzack]], but the true ruler is the monster Keeleon.

Keeleon

Nate: trying again, ha

Keeleon

2008-11-29T13:13:13Z

Nate: first edit, needs work.

Keeleon is a country (and the name of its capital and castle, as well) in the world of [[Dragon Warrior IV]]. It is ruled by King [[Balzack]], but the true power behind the throne is a monster with the same name: [[Keeleon]].

The '''Gunpowder Jar''' is an item given to the party by the [[Aktemto]] miners; it is used to scare a [[Keeleon|certain country]]'s Minister into revealing a secret location...

'''Aktemto''' is a mining town in [[Dragon Warrior IV]] in which most of the people are sick due to digging far into the earth and uncovering Esturk's palace -- releasing poison gas, which flooded the mine ''and'' the town itself.

Aktemto Mine is the only known producer of [[gunpowder]], although that hasn't been done in a while. The only remaining stash can make a loud noise, but is too old and damp to do any damage...

This town is visited several times over the course of [[Dragon Warrior IV|the game]], steadily worsening in condition as more of the miners and others become sick or die. This can be attributed to the poison gas released from the mine, and then there's the monsters.
