What IS the Secret of Mana?
 
I have a riddle; a conundrum, if you will.

I was just reading one of the RPG threads and I suddenly asked myself:

What IS the Secret of Mana? It's the name of the game, for crissake. Maybe I forgot because of all the beautiful things I saw in the game, but now, in hindsight, it really didn't deliver. It CLAIMS to contain this "Secret of Mana," but I don't remember anything being revealed in the game.

The answer COULD be as simple as "Pay no attention to the U.S. name," but such a bland response will not in my opinion lay this enigma to rest.

Maybe, though, I need to play the game again to find out. :p

Suggestions welcome.

While the answer to the Universe and everything usually is useful, I don't think it works here. And I don't get how advice about what to do before purchasing a game answers it, either.

Unfortunately, both of those answers/replies are more than I've got. Sure, I could sit here and post something about the Mana sword and how you play as the "true hero" or whatever. C'mon. We all know it'd be bull.

I'll just have to go play the thing again and hope I can find out. 'Course, that'd require more free time and dedication... How about you let me know when you find out?

Sure, just as soon as I dust off my SNES.

Actually, heh. There IS a 'Secret of Mana', but it's within the game itself. Go and play, foo! Play! :D

The 9th Sword Orb. Duh ;)

Man, I hated those 9th orbs...
Took me forever to get them all.
Cool thing is, I learned about those things without an FAQ. I was so proud....

Oh and-

You let dust touch your SNES! Heretic! You must be stoned to death!
