** It gets potentially even worse. In the third game, the hero is an orphan raised by his Uncle Brent. Playing the prequel games makes you realize that [[spoiler:Uncle Brent used to be the little boy Brent who adopts the hero of ''Lost Tales 1'' as his older brother. So... is the hero of the third game the son of the hero of ''Lost Tales 1''?]]

* PlayerPunch: In the third game, when Uncle Brent is KilledOffForReal, it can hit this way - especially for returning players from the previous installments. Up to this point in the series, loved ones of the heroes who disappear for one reason or another have always returned safely by the end of the game... but not this time. It's especially sad because Uncle Brent is the hero's only known relative, and the game has made it clear that they really love each other.
