KABOOM! Baseless Head-Canons [SPOILERS]

[CyrilLucifer]

Since this is the crackpot theory thread I'd like to share one of mine:

With Eilibus constantly claiming he wants to 'restore the balance' and so on and so forth, and with the Ascians being named after FF12s Scions of Light. I'd like to think that Halmarut, who is the Scion of Light equivalent to Libra (the scales and the one zodiac sign that represents balance) will eventually become a big player.

I think Altima will become a major Ascian for a similar reason, but also because, you know, Altima is a really major character in FFT as well as already being confirmed in-game as an Ascian. She has a history of being problematic.

I guess if we're going full crackpot and not just head-canon, my total crackpot would be that the WoDs come from an AU and that Ascian they killed was the cutscene of their AU you (eg how you were a Spitewarden in the true FFXI world), hence the mocking "Warrior of Light" bit. Because to them, you being called the Warrior of Light is a mockery.

Didn't I already post a similar theory on the first page (though that speculated more on the nature of the AU world itself)?

Possibly, I didn't meant to step on any toes or take your crackpot, so apologies, ha. I don't really want to speculate on the AU nature of the world yet.

If we're really going to stir up the crackpot theory then when dalamund fell, when Louisoux did what he did, he actually didn't send ANYONE 5 years into the future, but created a primal world which is killing the real Hydaelyn. The Warriors of Darkness entered the primal world and are trying to dismantle it before the true world dies.

FF5 plot references, I'd like to see something like that.
