Shining Series Continuity
In Shining Force Gaiden: Final Conflict, it is revealed that the villain of Shining in the Darkness, Mephisto (called Dark Sol in the English versions), is the son of Darksol and his chief follower, the sorceress Mishaela (the villains of Shining Force I). After the final defeat of Darksol, the child was whisked away by Oddeye, the foremost Greater Devil of Darksol's archenemy, Zeon.
Mephisto's role in Shining in the Darkness places its entry in the timeline sometime following the events of Shining Force II. Since Shining Wisdom takes place but a few years later, it almost certainly takes place after Shining Wisdom as well.

Famous quotes containing the words shining, series and/or continuity:
“Year after year beheld the silent toil
That spread his lustrous coil;
Still as the spiral grew,
He left the past year’s dwelling for the new,
Stole with soft step its shining archway through,
Built up its idle door,
Stretched in his last-found home, and knew the old no more.”
—Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
“Through a series of gradual power losses, the modern parent is in danger of losing sight of her own child, as well as her own vision and style. It’s a very big price to pay emotionally. Too bad it’s often accompanied by an equally huge price financially.”
—Sonia Taitz (20th century)
“Every society consists of men in the process of developing from children into parents. To assure continuity of tradition, society must early prepare for parenthood in its children; and it must take care of the unavoidable remnants of infantility in its adults. This is a large order, especially since a society needs many beings who can follow, a few who can lead, and some who can do both, alternately or in different areas of life.”
—Erik H. Erikson (1904–1994)
