New Rune Factory Frontier merch from GraffArt! They're finally getting their own cute little alternate outfits, with their theme being a rainy day. They're currently up for preorder on the EEO store, but should be going up on places like Amiami relatively soon. The Japanese side of Amiami already has them, at least.

The line-up includes acrylic standees, keychains, and a clear case featuring the new artwork.

RF1: Year 1 - Fall 9

I distinctly remember this full quote making me pick Felicity as a kid:

Lil’ Raguna, your skills make you a true swordsman! That’s great too, but you also look good when you’re holding a hoe or a watering can.

I love how she acknowledges his skills and praises him for them but also gently reminds him that fighting isn't everything. She's one of the few characters who acknowledges both sides of Raguna and it's certainly one of the main factors that made her my childhood favourite.

Melotober - Day 5 - Treat

Thank you!!!

I've decided to do a little series where I edit the Rune Factory children portraits to look closer to my favorite bachelorette/bachelor from each game. (If you want any edits for your favorite, my requests are open!)

So, starting off with Rune Factory 1...Tabatha!!!

I really wish that they gave your child the unique traits of your spouse in these games more often. Some of the games have the coloring, but where are the elf ears and other fantasy traits? So even though the elf ears were a pain to edit, I pulled through. I also changed the baby's eye color to match Tabitha's lavender, because gosh are her eyes gorgeous.

I wasn't initially a Tabatha fan (not that I disliked her, but she wasn't a standout at first), but as soon as I saw her proposal she instantly became my favorite. Her spontaneous reveal that she's an elf right before the proposal caught me so off guard and I love that. I also love her desire to unite humans and elves (though I really wish they did more with that character motivation). The fact that she proposes to Raguna is such a fun bonus too. Not to mention how gorgeous she is???

(Since I don't have a copy of RF1, I got the unedited gameplay image from houcha on YouTube from this video: https://youtu.be/ZD2vXWDFxWU?si=a75BN44DTKvBq7TQ This channel is such a lifesaver for RF gameplay content, I can't recommend it enough)

Raguna from Rune Factory has a Ryu number of 5, I think. Raguna to Ethelberd via Rune Factory, Ethelberd to Margaret via Rune Factory 4, Margaret to Cerberus via Rune Factory 5, Cerberus to Achilles via Hades, Achilles to Ryu via Minecraft. I couldn't find a shorter path than that, and the whole chain relies on the Cerberus boss from Rune Factory 5 being the same Cerberus from Greek myth as well. (Apologies, I accidentally sent this as a submission at first)

Raguna has a Ryu Number of 4.

Okay im gonna sound crazy but i need to ask someone about my lil rf4 theory and i apologize if this is like a well known thing that ive just never heard anyone talk about. Spoilers for rf1 if u never played.

Are arthur and raguna brothers? My memory is foggy i havent played rf1 in 10+ years but i thought they heavily implied at the end of the game that hes a lost prince? Idk if they say the crown prince but def one of the older ones since it was a big deal this prince went missing. I know there supposed to be some nebulous amount of time that passes between games but if arthur is prince 13 it wouldnt be crazy to assume they could have a close to 20 year age gap. Or are they from completely different generations, or am i completely misremembering rf1. Thank u for listening to my theory. My GAME theory.

Okay, so this is only slightly tricky to answer because the Rune Factory series does not have a definitive timeline. However, RF2's 1st gen takes place roughly 10 years after RF1—the 2nd gen takes place seven years later. Barrett mentions in RF4 that his son, Leonel, is 12, so RF4 takes place at least five years after the second half of RF2. Factor those given numbers and give or take a few years, and I like to think that by RF4, it's been about 25-30 years since the events of RF1, which would account for Ethelberd's old, decrepit appearance.

As for Raguna's relationship to the royal family, it was confirmed in the Rune Factory Official Memoirs book that Raguna and Ivan are second cousins of Gilbert, the king who was ruling Norad at the time of RF1. We don't know if Gilbert is still around at the time of RF4, as the king of Norad is deliberately left unnamed in every dialogue mentioning him, including the letter he writes to Arthur if the player chooses to marry him. However, seeing as Gilbert's portrait depicts him as an old man with a cane, it's fairly safe to assume he has most likely passed since RF1 and that the current king IE Arthur's father is his son.

In short: Arthur and Raguna are not brothers, but they are related, albeit distantly.

So this is what happened to Raguna's old farm during Rune Factory Frontier...
