Article Title

Lunpa is a village, not a town. The only towns in GS1 are Bilbin, Kalay, Tolbi, and Lalivero. The article itself reflects this, but the title should reflect it as well. Marandahir 18:22, June 21, 2010 (UTC)


A Place called Adam

As I discovered and have screen-shotted here: Where is Adam?, the soldiers of Lunpa claim the protagonists come from a place called "Adam" if you return to Lunpa after freeing Hammet. I have no idea where this is. I've never actually encountered this dialogue before. Perhaps the Japanese language version of the game can clear this up (perhaps it's an early translation version name for Vale, akin to gaffs like keeping the names Garapas or Ulmuch in the English version, despite changing them elsewhere), but until I can open up my Japanese cart and play through to Lunpa again, I can't really get an answer on that front. Anybody else have an idea about Adam, for the sake of completionism in regards to Golden Sun lore? Marandahir (talk) 19:01, 9 August 2015 (CDT)Reply[reply]

It's not a place name, it's an expression. That someone is such a stranger to you that you "don't know them from Adam" is an idiom in the English language. See here. Erik the Appreciator (talk) 19:10, 9 August 2015 (CDT)Reply[reply]
Thanks Erik. Never had heard the idiom before. But it makes sense – Adam just meant in Hebrew, "a human", after all. Marandahir (talk) 19:16, 9 August 2015 (CDT)Reply[reply]
