Pop Culture Influences
At least one writer has been inspired by this game's backstory to borrow an element in his work. The webcomic Anima: Age of the Robots details the myth of planet Anema's creation. It begins with:
We see the sky, the mountains and the sea And we wonder how we have come to be. In the beginning there was nothingness Then behold, the guardian cometh...
This greatly resembles the "creation myth" narrated during the game's introduction:
We see the sky, we see the land, we see the water And we wonder, Are we the only ones? Long before we came to exist, the Humans ruled the Earth. They made marvelous things, and moved whole mountains. They knew the secret of Flight, the secret of Happiness, And other secrets beyond our imagining.
Also in Anima: Age of the Robots, there is a minor character called Rif, also an orange-colored fox.

“The children [on TV] are too well behaved and are reasonable beyond their years. All the children pop in with exceptional insights. On many of the shows the children’s insights are apt to be unexpectedly philosophical. The lesson seems to be, “Listen to little children carefully and you will learn great truths.””
—G. Weinberg. originally quoted in “What Is Television’s World of the Single Parent Doing to Your Family?” TV Guide (August 1970)
“We belong to an age whose culture is in danger of perishing through the means to culture.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“I don’t believe in villains or heroes, only in right or wrong ways that individuals are taken, not by choice, but by necessity or by certain still uncomprehended influences in themselves, their circumstances and their antecedents.”
—Tennessee Williams (1914–1983)
