* The thirteenth game, '''[[http://www.bigfishgames.com/games/11717/dark-parables-requiem-for-forgotten-shadow-ce/ Requiem for the Forgotten Shadow]],''' brings the Detective to the ancient duchy of Anaben, at the foot of the Alps, where a strange plague has been assailing its residents. A cloaked figure uses a magic candle to steal people's shadows, leaving them ill and muttering nonsense. At the same time, a mysterious brotherhood is gathering with evil intent, and the detective needs to find out just how these facts are connected. The backstory of the game features "Literature/{{The Shadow|Fairy Tale}}," one of Creator/HansChristianAndersen's more obscure tales.

Added DiffLines:

* RiddleForTheAges: Who exactly was [[spoiler:the fake Fionnuala]] who appears in the bonus game? Neither the gameplay nor the parables give any indication of [[spoiler:her]] true identity, and given the series' untimely cancellation, it's unlikely any answers will ever be forthcoming.

* MrFanservice: The men in the fairy tales who are introduced in this series each have some of this going on. Prince James in ''Exiled Prince'' and Prince Ross in ''Rapunzel'' are a couple of {{Hunk}}s, while Jack in ''Sky Kingdom'' bears a strong resemblance to Franchise/IndianaJones. Eric, in ''Queen of Sands,'' also turns out to be this by the end of the game, along with being a WalkingShirtlessScene. Kai and [[spoiler:Prince Gwyn]] in the bonus chapter of ''Rapunzel'' have both grown up to be very {{Pretty Boy}}s. ''Fallen Star'' and ''Tinderbox'' bring us the Moon Priest, [[spoiler:Hansel]], who arguably looks more like a storybook PrinceCharming than any other character yet introduced. ''Requiem'' gives us the Shadow God, who evokes EvilIsSexy.

* CreepyDoll: In a moment of genuine SurpriseCreepy, the catacombs contains some ArtificialHuman dolls, [[spoiler: prototypes of Serafina and Mercy,]] discarded because defective and too aggressive. One lies seemingly dead inside a coffin, only to come back to life and attack the Detective. The other is even creepier, as she first appears in a couple of JumpScare events behind a locked door... [[WhamShot only to appear on the treshold of the Crypt]] and make sporadic appearences around the place, stalking the Detective from the shadows. Luckily, both times you encounter them you will have access to the items which will allow you to overwhelm them.

Overprotective Dad has been disambiguated. This seems a quite reasonable and not overprotectiveness


* OverprotectiveDad: Not wanting his daughter to marry into a mysterious kingdom with a lot of bad rumors, he claimed his daughter was disfigured and unfit for marriage. Too bad this turned out to be a grievous mistake.
