It's already speculated that Zodiark might be on the moon due to the Zodiark statue.But I wonder if the "moon" is actually is actually a prison/seal? That perhaps Hydaelyn or her 1st champions used the same sealing ritual to seal Zodiark?
Plot Details, yo!
It was mentioned by the Word of the Mother (I refuse to call that thing Minfilia) when the schism between Light and Dark happened aeons ago, Zodiark was banished to the heavens to forever remain a "moon bound."

This, combined with the Zodiark statue up there, how it seems to be Elidibus' favorite haunt, and how Hydaelyn is the name of both our planet and Goddess, almost certainly means that the moon is Zodiark - or what's left of him, at any rate. It's not Menphina.

Who exactly created that sealing spell? Why does it so closely resemble Dalamud? Who knows. I was of the mind that the original spell used by Louisoix was also a time spell - rewinding time so that Bahamut was still imprisoned in Dalamud, but apparently that's not the case.
