    Hydaelyn seems to be a fusion of two concepts: The Lifestream from FFVII, and the 'world crystals' from FFIX. The Lifestream in FFVII was unambigiously portrayed as both a good thing and vital, with those tampering with it portrayed as villains.

    The world crystal in FFIX was the accumulation of all the memories of those who once lived on the planet (all made one). It was also portrayed as a good thing, and the primary conflict is initiated by those who interfered with it.

    My current headcannon is that Hydaelyn is a planet crystal similiar to in FFIX, just given sentience...Actually, now that I think about, the 'eidilons' (summons) in FFIX are similiar to primals. They were created from the myths and legends of the world by the planet. Hm...

    Anyway, between these two concepts (especially the planet crystal one) its going to take a whole hell of a lot to put Hydaelyn anywhere near 'hey, maybe helping her isn't such a good idea...'
