Dragon Quest III remakes

"Are you familiar with the expression ‘straight arrow’…? It describes you perfectly…

You may not realise it, but you are incapable of lying… Your dishonesty shows instantly on your face…

And you are as impressionable as you are honest, often becoming swept up in events around you…

Fear of failure may make you overcautious at times…

So you must strive to overcome it, and learn to act decisively and boldly…

Do so, and you may find a new self waiting within…"
