TIME PARADOX IMMINENT!

Look at history. Bahamut is tameable... as are all aeons, and can be defeated. I think the Allagans used him as the power source for Dalmud... probably in a crystal. He is only super powerful when you are relatively weak.Looking at FFX: "Bahamut possesses the auto-ability Break Damage Barrier. This enables its attacks to exceed 9999 HP damage right from the start. Bahamut has high strength, Defense and Magic attributes. Bahamut's regular attack causes more damage than any other aeon's. Bahamut can also cast the highest elemental black magic spells." As awesome as Bahamut sounds.... remember when you summonned him he rarely could take out a major boss without a lot of help.

So... where's the confirmation that we weren't sent directly to the future and that we're simply in some sorta frozen state outside of time?
From all I've read it could be either/or. Everyone is acting as if there's something that says one way or the other 100%. I'm curious as to why.

I thought this was a fairly firm confirmation that we were sent to a Aetherial rift to be brought back at a "Undetermined" time when all was safe. It even says in the future...

...Realizing the end is nigh, Louisoix summons the last of his strength to call upon Althyk, the Keeper, god of space and time, to send those surviving heroes into an aetherial rift, where they are to remain untouched by the passing of the seasons until it is once again safe to emerge...and continue their struggle to forge Eorzea's future.

Is there a difference?

One way we are frozen in time, life goes on outside like normal.

We are sent into the future, where life had gone on like normal till that point.

Be messier if we were sent back lol

@ end of time and in the life stream

We should be over 9000 max level then XD - so much aether within us that our steps crack Eorzea. (Or we trained so damn long aganist the snurble )

That sounds like flowery language for time travel to me... -_-


'cause, there's no functional difference between being untouched by time and emerging 5 years later and simply being sent directly 5 years into the future.
So, can someone explain to me how this is any different than time travel into the future based on what is written there?

When you go to bed at night and wake up in the morning do you feel that is time travel? I mean you go to sleep at midnight and you wake up and its suddenly 6AM... did you travel through time or were you just in an unconscious state of being that makes the time between going to sleep and waking up seem instantish? Being in stasis for 5 years is still waiting for 5 years, prior to waking up and being again. It doesn't really matter anyway its a simply semantics argument but in my estimation its like sleeping... and not time travel.

Well, if I were untouched by time while I was asleep I'd say yes I did travel by time but that is not the case when I sleep.
