Welcome back to Ignitus Wisdom, and to Part I of this year's My Gift To You Birthday Special! I've explained this in years past, but the whole point of this special on my birthday is my way of thanking you all for continuing to read my stuff after another year of my life. Anyways, today, we are going on to the character with likely the saddest story that most of the world has never heard. The protagonist of the perennially region-locked Mother 3, Lucas. So let's not waste another minute. Prepare your tissues, here we go.

Spyro: Lucas? Why did the next opponent have to be Lucas?!

Ignitus: (Befuddled) I can get some fighters you have an issue with, but why Lucas?

Spyro: Poor kid's already been through so much, I don't want to be the one to add to it.

Ignitus: I can see your logic there. Especially in regards to Claus.

Spyro: I couldn't imagine being forced to fight your own brother and never know that's who it was.

Ignitus: There are people who say you have in a sense, considering many still claim Cynder is your sister.

Spyro: That was a DS localization error, and nothing more.

Ignitus: Perhaps this is one battle to skip.

Spyro: I couldn't agree more.
