I love this song...Cyan is probably one of my favorite characters from VI besides Locke, but as much as I love the Treasure Hunter, Cyan wins when it comes to story.
I don't know the lyrics, but this song is stuck in my head a lot. What amazing singing! I love his (their?) voices. Who is this? And what exactly is this Hyadain?
I totally agree with Cyan being the one to give the final stroke. Although if they develop the story into something with more depth (it only seems impossible) then Terra should.
last 4 in final battle? Locke n' Shadow(they go well together), Celes and Terra (Heaven and Earth) But I sometimes finished with Cyan instead of Shadow.
Japanese and English have different sentence and word structures.
A prime example is from another song from Hyadain based off the FF4 bosses. There Rubicante says in Japanese "Oro no Rubicante" which states "Flame (or fire) of Rubicante.
This is a title of his name, however, in English we would translate it as " Rubicante the Flame or Rubicante of the Flame"
Disagree with the Abe Lincoln days. I think the game was based on the ante-deluvian world (before flood) but I also think it's mixed in with the End Times.
All other events don't as closely match the settings, situations, characters, beasts, or even the attitude.
Oh, WW1 and WW2, since Mustard Gas was used in ww1 and Hitler was obsessed with religious artifacts that would give him powers. He was full of Hate, just like Kefka, cept Kefka wasn't on drugs.
Yeah, they had giants, and behemoth (brachiosaur (no other FF has it)), the Leviathan, dragons were big deal in biblical times, and so were the 8 dragons. Most equipment the soldiers used in WW2 also I agree, to be very much like the empire's. As for the End Times? Nah, most of the clique end time stuff don't look like what the real one would look like. But hey, what about Phantom Train? That's some Abe Lincoln days.
@Zidana123 The albhed are extremists in the sense that they use extreme measures.
They are blamed for their actions and have a reptuation.
Sort of like:how the generalization of communism exists and the people who create that generalization are just as bad because they hate them for their belief.
Its not so much about the god,but about racism and ignorance.
And as for reality:Religions are all the same in the end,except that muslism is much more violent.
@piromaniac9999 Well, modern Christianity isn't all that violent due to evolving social rules in Christian societies. Back in the day though they were pretty nasty, what with the inquisitions and the crusades and the burning of heretics and 'witches.'
I don't see the al-bhed as a symbol for islam though. The al-bhed do what they do for political reasons, not religious. They want to shut down the summoner-sin cycle to oppose the Yevonites, not because some their god told them to.
@piromaniac9999 They are similar, but I think they are different in that in the religious system, the invisible god in the sky being used as an excuse to kill someone carries with it some kind of moral weight.
The Yevonites preach the Al-bhed are evil on a moral level and their use of machines brings Sin, which is uncorroborated by proof.
The Al-bhed don't preach anything. They just fight the Yevonites because the Yeonvites perpetuate the cycle of Sin. No preaching = no proof needed.
@piromaniac9999 Those are both political examples though. And I don't see how morality comes into play in those two situations. Both of those men made claims that didn't pan out. Bush lied about a physical reality, and Obama lied about his ability as a political leader. There's no morality involved. Bush didn't say "If you don't support the invasion of Iraq you are EVIL," and Obama didn't say "If you don't vote for me to fix the country you are EVIL."
@piromaniac9999 But the Al-bhed ARE independant. They run a sovereign nation with their own laws, army, government, and social structure. >_>
Given that they have a sovereign state behind them, and that the targets of their attacks (the summoners) aren't exactly a civilian population, I wouldn't call them so much terrorists per se as guerilla fighters or state-sponsored assassins.
@Zidana123 Still,they aren't working out of religion,but out of an extremist left wing political belief.
Anyways,i find the story interest because there is also biggotry against the al bhed and misinformation about maquina being bad believed by the religious ones.
Like:maquina being bad.
Remember how wakka was talking about maquina being bad and references? and you go to bevelle and they find out that their religious organization was using maquina which was forbidden.
@piromaniac9999 That's my point about the Yevonites being a representation of Catholicism.
Yevonites repudiate technology, but their church leaders embrace machina and use it to maintain their control over the church.
Catholics repudiate wealth and material living, but their church leaders are some of the biggest landowners in the world, with their own banking system, and use that material wealth to maintain their control over the church.
Losing your Family and Country are the two worst things that could happen to a soldier.
Anyways, I've studied into this game quite a bit.
It has Norse, Christian, Jewish, Islamic, and even Ancient Southern American religion weaved into it. All of them deal with the riders of the apocalypse and Titan like creatures being freed from their imprisonment.
Cyan reminds me of the anguish the world will feel.
I take religion seriously, and this game is thick full of it.
I can see the resemblance of Cyan as a symbol of Human Despair and Regret
When everything is taken away suddenly, it leads people to despair: Cyan's whole life was completely destroyed in a manner of minutes and throughout most of the game, he is still haunted by the fact that he couldn't save anyone in Doma.
He's a very tragic character but grows from his suffering and teaches others hope and love...and the word "Thou"
That's not big news that ff games take a lot from different religions... FFT was an accurate attempt at portreying medival church. FFX also has some not too hidden metaphors about blind beliefs like church of yevon. Not to forget general names: sephiroth nibelheim ixion shiva gilgamesh on top of my mind but there are many more.
Good god this is satisfying to sing.

Here's how I think the final battles should be if you want to be canon. (Yes, if they don't make it to the next tier, that means they got wasted)
First tier (Get rid of filler characters) - Terra, Setzer, Mog, Gau
Second tier (Family/magic battle)- Terra, Relm, Strago, Shadow
Third tier (Stealing the Ragnarok) - Terra, Locke, Edgar, Sabin
Fourth tier (Cyan summons Holy Justice) - Terra, Cyan, Celes
Umaro, and Gogo waits on airship.

I disagree.
FF7 was about playing god with science and getting into something that was beyond your capabilities or knowledge.
In ff7 shinra was playing god with something dangerous and got burned aka destroyed the world.
Although it is possible that somewhere religion was in between.
I picked up religion in FFX,most probably muslism being rikku and christianity being the others.
Or reversed possibly.
FFX is about intolerance and biases and rumors and how easy it is to fall into the trap.

@Zidana123 Political belief systems and religius belief systems work very similar.
Believe it or not,they are not that much different.
1 involves politicians lying and promising things,and the other is using some invisible god in the sky as an excuse to kill someone.
They are both run by i don't want to say con men,because its not the right word,but false prophets,people who are glib and promise lots.
They are expert charmers and run a belief system.
Belief systems don't like proof.

They both depend on the person being misinformed about the truth.

The lie was just an excuse probably to get petroleum.
Look at how obama promised to fix up the country and now he is being bashed because he hasn't fixed the country.
The difference is this:Religion and logic don't mix.
