Tales of Destiny/WMG

Tales of Destiny R is a result of timeline changes.
Tales of Destiny and its remake have some noticable differences, from minor things Stahn and Lion no longer using a shield, to major things like Lion dying a hero.

This is because in Tales of Destiny 2, all of the influences to the time line done by Elraine, Fortuna, Barbaratos and Kyle's group changed it to the point that Fortuna's death wasn't enough to completely reset it.
