FF Weekly: January 23rd Remember When...

FINAL FANTASY CRYSTAL CHRONICLES: ECHOES OF TIME was released in Japan on January 29, 2009.

To celebrate, let's look back at a rather curious tune sung by a young Yuke girl named Norschtalen.


La, la-la-la!

Alone at the end of the world,
all I'm doing is piling pebbles.
La-LA!

Now it's time to go-go!
Grinding flour in the ant hill!


While the lyrics come across as comedic, the song is meant to hide how lonely Norschtalen is as the last remaining person in her village. Little does she know, though, that her fellow townspeople aren't truly gone―they have only vanished from sight.

Norschtalen has a number of other songs she sings throughout the game as well. Give them a listen and see for yourself what makes this Yuke girl so adorable.
