 * All Just a Dream -- A wet dream to be precise...
 * Big Bad --
 * The Chosen One -- Kliche
 * Contemplate Our Navels -- One example: "Kliche considers the fact that destiny and fate are really the same thing, but perhaps the old man was referring to a deeper truth in the causality of the universe and the phenomena that make up his life..."
 * Cool Horse -- The pegacorn, so cool that Chuck Norris has like eight of them.
 * Doomed Hometown
 * Emergency Transformation --
 * Excuse Plot -- You don't even have to read the plot to complete the game.
