Rewrote a bit. While it's obvious that the YHVH stuff isn't why the game is STILL not coming out anywhere, that also seems to be the most blindingly obvious reason why it never got localized *when it came out,* as Nintendo would have never, ever, in a million years, allowed this game to exist on the American SNES without absolutely massive censorship.

I encountered Alice in the Factory Prison dungeon outside of a dark zone. There's a common idea that Fiends are only in dark zones. Thus, I'm adding this here.

Added DiffLines:

* UrbanLegendOfZelda: It's a pretty widespread rumor that, outside of the bonus dungeon, Fiends can only spawn in dark zones. The truth is that they spawn on certain tiles throughout the game, with some happening to be in dark areas.

* WordOfGod: [[spoiler:Despite being the main villain in this game and several others in the series, {{God}} is not the source of all evil. His villainy is more a symptom of something wrong with the overall picture.]]
