A little late to #VGMWednesday but I want to post more Illusion of Gaia.
South Cape is where you start. There's seagulls. And flutes. :D
This game feels a bit different to me from most grand RPGs for the SNES. It may have to do with the writer, Mariko Ohara. She was already a professional sci-fi author before writing this game's story.

Here is a nice calming song that I sometimes throw on when working on projects. This one repeats for 30 minutes!  
This song is interesting– it plays after you save and quit. You don't return to the title screen.

Game: Illusion of Gaia / Illusion of Time / ガイア幻想紀
Title: In the Earthen Womb / (Japanese title not found. If you know, please tell me!)
Composer: Yasuhiro Kawasaki / 川崎康宏

One hypothesis behind the leap year is so that we can keep the months aligned with the seasons and the reason why February was chosen is so that we can get through winter much quicker (illusion of time). But with climate change there has been a shift of subjective winter stop and start dates, at least in Europe, for the past couple of years. Where the typical first snow fall happens right after Christmas and snow persists until late April.

If we would have disregarded leap years for the past 100 years, we could have kept the original promise of having the months align with the seasons, though in the end, we changed ourselves out of the concept.
