Today's the day.

The Black Mage's final battle?!

But there's so many unresolved storylines. Besides Orca and Lotus, we still have the rest of the Black Wings, Daimen, Will, the dream manipulator elf girl (Lucid I think? I pretty much stopped playing months ago and haven't done Shade's story quests.), the whole plot to merge Maple World and Grandis, Magnus (However the hell he fits into all this. I'm still not sure just what the hell he's doing working for both the Black Mage and Darmoor.), Gelimer, Arkarium and Hilla are still alive, etc.

.....

Losing's going to be part of the Black Mage's plan ala Diablo, isn't it?

.....

Whatever, if he dies and comes back, someone still has to eat shirt.

Or it's just an extremely misleading update title. If it actually were a boss battle with the Black Mage, you'd think he'd be the piece of stock art shown rather than Orchid and Lotus.
