When your game is not about fighting.
When the princess and her animal friends set out to change the dangerous world with the power of love and friendship.
When the wicked witch and her dragon master darken the wood and make safe roads uncertain.
When the battered resistance has only one last thread of hope against their terrible oppressors.
Just before the fall of the last bastion of goodness and light.
Summon ye, the fighter.
