Still, I'll have to take your word on it that they never said Edea's name up until that point. I certainly don't remember her identity (as Edea) being withheld that long, but maybe I just knew it from cards or something. LeonhartFour posted... They don't learn Edea's name until they've already begun the mission, so at that point, it's a bit late for Irvine to back out. I still think a person who wasn't jaded enough to be able to assassinate their own mother without any qualms would still bring it up at that point. He's putting his childhood friends in danger if he can't hold up his end, after all. LeonhartFour posted... Yes, but it's couched in speculation and isn't ever confirmed until that moment. It's a possible side effect (and Garden and SeeD are skeptical about it; heck, even when it's brought up, Quistis mentions that it's just a nasty rumor), but it's not stated to be a definite. C'mon, bringing up a detail like that and having someone dismiss it out of hand as a rumor in a story means it's true beyond a shadow of a doubt. It's on the level of having a cop say he's two days away from retirement right before dying. --- "One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land." -Toad, SMB3 ... Copied to Clipboard! |
