Victory by a Water Margin - Let's Play Suikoden


Neclord is dead and Viktor has temporarily departed. With another major power of the Scarlet Moon Empire taken care of, Mir has time to search for more people to recruit. But his search won’t be easy: for some reason or another, several strong individuals across the land are all currently hanging out in some of the most obnoxious to reach locations around the land. Can Mir stomach another two walks through Neclord’s Castle, and various other time-taking dungeons?
