Persona 3 Reload, Part 28: The Dam Has Broken

"When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.”

~Chief Tecumseh, 1768-1813

I knew it was coming, I just thought it happened later, and boy does it hit harder than it did being presented through menus in P3P. I also, on a much lighter note, maxed all my social stats and cleaned up the Devil. Only the Tower at night now I think.

(Note for the title of this episode: Castor is Polydeuces' brother in Greek mythology, and the name literally translates to "Beaver.")

If you're young or a parent and are reading this: this is a dark game. It is rated M for mature because it does exceed T in some things. There is no sex (though there is the occasional suggestiveness you'd expect from pubescents), there is death but it's mostly unrealistic (fantasy monsters) and not shown (happens just off screen), the summoning comes off as dark, but quickly fades into the background. Some blood and mature language is found here. I feel any normal high schooler since at least the 1980s has been exposed to this content in their daily lives besides magical fantasy violence. This is not for 8 year olds; 12 year olds probably can handle it depending on maturity, 15 year olds almost certainly can.

Intro and outro music usually by @GunshipMusic, who are rad and you should support them.
