Basically, "Black Chest Demon" is a poor conjectural title for this article. These aren't demons, they're four heroes who saved the world 1,000 years prior to the game's events and got cursed by the Shadow Queen. They are never called "demons" at all, only the Shadow Queen herself is. There have been a few discussions regarding the name and state of this article but all of them have fizzled out with no conclusion. So let's fix that already.

#...their actual name of "four heroes" is REALLY non-specific, too; it could refer to ''any'' set of four heroes. For instance: Mario, Luigi, Peach and Toad in ''Super Mario Bros. 2''; or Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong and Cranky Kong in ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze''. If their English name was something along the lines of their Japanese or Spanish names, that translate to "Rogueport's Millenary Four Heroes", or something simple like "The Four Heroes of Rogueport", then that would be sufficiently clear enough, but no, it's ''just'' "four heroes".

But they are also important enough to have their own separate article, instead of being relegated to the black chest article, so merging with that page is also out, I feel. And moving to another conjectural name, or keeping the conjectural name they already have, is also weird when they ''do'' have an actual name. I... literally don't know what to do here. {{User:Arend/sig}} 06:25, May 19, 2023 (EDT)
