Backlog Resolution: Septerra Core Part 27
0The failure to save Pranno cost many lives, including that of Layla of the Wind City Guard. While the cyro chamber on Lobo's ship can keep her alive in some way, her wounds are fatal and untreatable by normal means. However, a journey to the mysterious factory north of Oasis offers Corgan a chance to save her.

Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator is a console style role playing game released in 1999 by Valkyrie Studios and Monolith Productions. Developed in the late 90s and likely inspired by games like Chrono Trigger and the Final Fantasy series, the game tells the story of Maya as she works with her allies to save the clockwork world of Septerra. With game systems that will be second nature for many JRPG fans and the option for full mouse control, Septerra Core brought the experience of console RPGs to the PC at a time when that wasn't so common as it is today. It might not be an all-time great, but it's certainly interesting and worth a look.
