"When people encounter sorrow, they try to forget it, and pretend it never existed at all."

Dreams are, in a general sense, a kaleidoscope of our deeply set emotions, traumas, and discordant thoughts. Lunatea's Veil wants more than anything to present them as they are, walking and jumping through a melancholic journey that deeply wants you to stay and view the extremes and earnest feelings you have. And by the end, also understanding the ones you try to keep down the most. Experiencing past traumatic memories set in maze-like collections of mirrors, joys flamboyantly strung like circus minigames, sorrows stuck in a decrepit kingdom sectioned off from the world. It all paints a picture that's maybe too real, that often I paused just to reflect in a similar vein. I've had a very long weekend up to now where I've fallen to the heart the same way Klonoa does, and as a weird spin this brought me much comfort.

Understand, it's ok to cry, just as long as you never give up!
