It's not generic friend-or-foe. I did put Foe before Friend for a reason u know. :lol:

Meh, that way I read it was: Do you think Bahamut is a friend or a foe. Question marks signify uncertainty, and asking other people for their thoughts and concerns. So when I first saw the title I was like seriously? TRAITOR! Haha .

Pretty sure you guys probably did get the reference/simile, but for any who don't follow Disney: Bahamut is like Genie in Aladdin. If the wrong person gets hold of his lamp, he can be used for evil purposes. That isn't to say Bahamut is good or evil in his free nature, but to say that Bahamut at the time was arguably under some form of control by the Garlean Empire.

True this. Bahamut is then neither friend or foe, just works for whoever gots his materia lol.
