Description ... Spoilers ahead.

Rean Schwarzer and Valimar the Ashen Knight, two things from the PS3/PS Vita RPG Trails of Cold Steel. It's the same universe as the Trails in the Sky steam releases, except it's in full 3D and it's really beautiful. There's a lot of dialogue and the combat is really good. I was very shocked and surprised at the new mechanic introduced AT THE END OF THE GAME just to tease the sequel that's out soon. Clever. Rean has a lot of weird things throughout the game, including a white haired varient of himself that he has no direct control over. So with that red herring thrown at us, I couldn't imagine he would have a mecha as well. You know, in a game that's very down to earth with its fantasy setting and focuses more on world building than crazy shit happening. Valimar having a tachi like weapon in the sequel by the looks of it will be the icing on the cake.

The Trails series is one of my most favorite franchises. Very much like the Suikoden series in terms of world-building, politics and believable villains.

The only fan art of Valimar in DA!
