After taking a look at the new stuff coming in Chaos, I was shocked to discover more Goetic names - respectively, those of Agares, Eligos, Ipos, Halphas, and Vepar.
Now while these probably won't signify a coming of Episode II, they bear a specific purpose of discussion: Nexon most likely knows that the Black Mage dying could signify an end to Maple. And everyone knows when Maple ends, *most* people will just drone for a MapleStory 2 (and it's been mentioned several times, so don't deny it). But what if the Black Mage:
A)Got his powers from Lucifer, whom rules over the Goetia?
B)Summoned many malevolent demons from Hell (the 5 Class Demons of Episode 1 and Astaroth being an example)
C)Drew more power from Hell as he was recovering?
Then I could see Lucifer as being a boss beyond the Black Mage.
Before you bash me, let's look at the names of the Goetic demons we've seen and ARE seeing.
Now if we somehow get an Episode II with the demons I just listed above (Agares, Eligos, Ipos, Halphas, Vepar), then the trend here will either see us fighting Mammon or Beelzebub (and knowing the Goetia, Beelzebub is ranked too high to be fought so soon, unless they make these demons a 4th job exclusive).
My guess is, if we ever get Episodes III and IV, IV will most likely have us fighting Lucifer himself, with Episode III forcing us to fight Beelzebub and even higher ranked Goetic demons.
I'm done doing a fanboyish analysis. Discuss if you want, flame if you desire.
