Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown – Part 1-2
With our prologue and introductions out of the way, it’s time to enter Dracula’s Ca- I mean Mount Qaf, where the bulk of the game takes place.
Our goal: To rescue the Prince of Persia.
Of course, if it was a simple mission, we wouldn’t have a video game on our hands. And naturally, since this is a Prince of Persia game, time and time manipulation are core elements of the plot and world-building. We’ll get into the weeds of that later. For now, it’s good enough to simply file the discrepancies with the flow of time into the back of our minds.
I would also be remiss if I didn’t at least call attention to the fact that the dead are resurrected by a black wind, which matches Sargon’s epithet, “Rashabar” or “Black Wind”. We’re told the Black Wind brings destruction in the prologue sequence, so I can’t imagine that’s an accident.
But first, we need to find a ranged weapon to destroy the black mass of time magic.
