And much later in Watermia, you can find his children who have no idea he's dead, and are still expressing hope that he'll return. You just couldn't have the heart to tell them otherwise, either.
* Just before the final boss fight, you're transported to the roof of Babel Tower, where you meet with the pure souls of people you met throughout your adventure, including Seth, Hamlet, and your opponent from Russian Glass, who laments, "Living with a terminal illness was better than this."
* In the Native's Village, Hamlet's HeroicSacrifice. The game was retranslated by fans, and resulted in a very different portrayal of the Native's Village. In the original translation the Natives were starving to death and the skeletons around the village were those of the villagers who starved to death. While still heroic, Hamlet's actions seemed rather random. In the retranslation, the Natives had resorted to cannibalism due to the famine, meaning Hamlet throwing himself into the fire had a bit more purpose; he did it to save Kara and the others from being eaten. What's interesting is that the cannibalism is portrayed in a sympathetic and sad light. They're not monsters, [[NoPartyLikeADonnerParty they're people desperate to survive, and doing the absolute last thing they want to do to live]]. The boy who shows you a skeleton with tears in his eyes in particular has a whole new meaning in this translation.

When you face him, he's gotten to the point where he's playing to lose, so that his family will live a comfortable life with the money he accumulated from years of winning. The next morning when his now-widow gives you his will, she also leaves you with a single message that puts the icing on this TearJerker cake: "We don't need money. Real joy is being with those you love."
* In another early location, it's mentioned that the luxurious carpets in Edward Castle take forty years to make. In one of the last areas of the game, you visit the town these carpets are made in.
