SL Lang Log

 Interesting site to explore the Japanese games of the Super Famicom, with short descriptions for all games, plus short reviews and walkthroughs/guides for some games: スーファミとかの部屋 Aside from the very old-school appearance and tech (it's not everyday you see cgi-bin in URLs these days), you can search for games by name, by year, by genre etc. 

This was an eventful part of the game. Adol beats a boss monster and rescues Leeza, then the Dark Clan appears, and after some dispute they all go to a room where Eldeel (the last of the race of winged people) tells part of his plan. Then Adol and Leeza return to town where Leeza and his father Schulz tell their secret.
