This is a sub-page of Proto:Phantasy Star IV: The End of the Millennium.

As the most important structure on Dezolis, there's really no need to persuade people to visit Gumbious Temple. Scenic.

to ashes.'

After the Garuberk Tower Disappears#

Basement#

May & August Scripts

Powerful waves of pure emotion
emanating from have
assaulted
this temple!

Final Script

Powerful wave of pure hate
assaulted this temple!

Translation Notes
The Japanese term for the waves is "念波". This could translate to "wave of feeling/emotion", but in the case, should probably translate to "thought wave."

The final English draft changed the vague "emotion" to "hate", which at least makes sense in context.

May & August Scripts

Just when we though the dark
cloud was lifted and the malice
was gone...!

Final Script

Just when we thought the dark
cloud was lifted and the malice
was gone...!

May & August Scripts

So you are the people to whom
the Eclipse Torch was loaned.
I'm glad you're here.
The bishop is awaiting you.

Final Script

So you are the people who saved
the Eclipse Torch.
I'm glad you're here.
The bishop awaits you.

Translation Notes
The high priest already knows that Chaz and the others have the Eclipse Torch -- he's the one who loaned it to them -- but the way the sentence (イクリプストーチをお貸しした方々じゃな) was translated makes it seem like he's just now learning about this.

The later English draft doesn't really fix this, but it doesn't make him seem more appreciative...one supposes.
