Proto:La-Mulana (2006)/Demo/Text Differences
This is a sub-page of Proto:La-Mulana (2006)/Demo.
Interestingly, the demo uses both quote marks and Japanese hook brackets instead of only the latter in the final. Since there is no detailed map in-game, please see the one to the right to know where in the build do the locations on the categories' names refer to.

| ここは母のねむるばしょ。 死をもおそれぬ勇者のみがすすむことをゆるされる シレンの道なり。 |
This is where the Mother sleeps. A path of trials, where only heroes that do not fear death may enter. |
Instead of introducing the player to the ruins like in the final game, this stone tablet simply has the area's name printed, probably as a placeholder.
| Prototype (Original) | Prototype (Translation) |
|---|---|
| こんないりぐちでしんでしまうとはいっしょうのふかくなり。 もうしんでるけどね。 |
Dying on this kinda entrance is a mistake of a lifetime. I'm already dying though. |

The tablet that became the area's warp point in the final game.

A normal stone tablet. The original text was changed to be more clear.

|---|---|
| このせきひを２どとよむべからず。 さもなくばしかるべきむくいをうけよう。 |
Do not read this tablet twice. Or else thou wilt get proper retribution. |
| Final (Original, Mausoleum) | Final (Translation, Mausoleum) |
| このせきひを２どとみるべからず。 いましめをやぶりしものには死のくるしみをあたえる。 |
Do not see this tablet twice. That who ignores the warning wilt be granted the pain of death. |
| Final (Original, Same Area) | Final (Translation, Same Area) |
| ここは聖イキである。 みだりにきずつけるべからず。 いましめをやぶりしものには天バツがくだる。 |
This is a holy place. Do not defile it carelessly. That who ignores the warning wilt be given divine punishment. |
This tablet activates Hard Mode in the demo. It was moved to the Mausoleum of the Giants in the final and a hint for the divine lightning stayed in its place. Notably, even the text that was moved is different, but it also borrows a line from the tablet that stayed in its place.
| Prototype (Original) | Prototype (Translation) |
|---|---|
| けいこくをむしるもの、しかるべきむくいをうけよ。 | That who makes little of the warning, receive proper retribution. |
| Final (Original) | Final (Translation) |
| いましめをやぶりしものよ 死のくるしみをあじわえ。 |
Ye who ignores the warning. Taste the pain of death. |
This is what the tablet's text changes to once Hard Mode is activated.
 | ...But does it make sense? The translations on this page need to be proofread. If you are fluent enough in this language, please make any corrections necessary! Notes: Maybe Yoshimune really is a person? |

| どうもサミエルです。こわれてます。
こんかい、どっかできいたようなこうかおんがなりますが、 |
Hello, I am Samieru. I'm breaking down. You might feel like you've heard some of the sounds in this game before, |
| Original (Final) | Translation (Final) |
| 勇気をもつ者がブキをてにすることができるらしいが・・・ こんなはりのなかにとびおりたら死んじゃうよ。 |
Looks like the courageous can obtain the weapon but... I'm dead if I jump onto these spikes. |
Comment by the programmer Samieru. For some reason, he felt the need to put his message on a stone tablet, so it has to be deciphered first. The module used in the game known as SSCC notably has an interpunct here, likely since it's an abbreviation of Sanbiki SCC, as indicated by its filename SanbikiScc.dls. This was later replaced with an off-hand comment by a skeleton.

"There's a path in the place where the angels face each other" I found an invisible floor! But I ended up falling down for getting excited... |
From the skeleton at the bottom. This contained a comment by the developer duplex; it was changed to contain the final game's hint for Row 3's puzzle, referencing the B-4 tablet that had it in the Demo.

Filling a new trap like a hole in the Temple of the Sun hides the trigger. |
This one uses the third unused image in the Demo, and was also replaced by a hint for another area. Who is "Iarin" is unknown, but since the text looks like a joke, it's likely that it wasn't supposed to go into the final product.
