Welcome here, all of you who claim to be Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy IX and Final Fantasy X fanatics! This page is my last creation and it' s just a brief ( and a little humouristic ) description of the one who is behind the stage of this site: the author, as DFAT, as me! But it' s not over here: at the end of the page, you will be able to find some portraits of the people who contributed to the creation of this site, or gave their help for the solution of some in-game quests. So, I pray you not to leave at once this page but to take a look at what I put in, with the hope you can have a bit of fun while reading it.
" All hope abandone, ye who enter in "
