Life After Square
Following Secret of Mana's completion, Gebelli once again disappeared to travel the world, essentially retiring with income from Square royalties. In August 1998, Gebelli reappeared to attend John Romero's 1998 Apple II Reunion in Dallas, Texas at the Ion Storm offices. During an interview between the two, Romero credited Gebelli as a major influence on his career as a game designer. Currently, Nasir lives in Sacramento, California, where he has lived most of his life. Sakaguchi and Nasir remain great friends.

“My life I never held but as a pawn
To wage against thine enemies’ nor fear to lose it,
Thy safety being motive.”

“O for a man who is a man, and, as my neighbor says, has a bone in his back which you cannot pass your hand through! Our statistics are at fault: the population has been returned too large. How many men are there to a square thousand miles in this country? Hardly one.”
