Also since you've beaten the game now's a good time to share some old FF6 Myths! For starters, basically on the level of Mew Under The Truck myth was the lie that you could revive General Leo - the most common version involving killing an absurd amount of Brachiosaurs which lets you fight a dragon boss that drops a resurrection potion you can take to Leo's grave in Thamasa.

Another one was based on the very real Kaiser Dragon you fought in the Dragon's Den. As you know that dungeon is a FF6A addition, BUT there was data in the SNES original for a "CzarDragon" superboss that was planned in the original, complete with in-battle script and similar looking sprite to the Kaiser!



So yeah of course this spawned rumours for how to achieve this fight, involving the possession of all espers (yes, including both Odin + Raiden) and then beating all the dragons.

One last fun one for the road: Gogo is Adlai Stevenson. I can't seem to find the original page about it but this seems to cover it...

*note, in the SNES translation Growth Egg = EXP Egg, which is what the Egghead paragraph is about. When you want the refutation of the myth... take "/quotes.htm" off the url

I get the impression the plot was shaped to accommodate character beats rather than the other way around.
Heh yeah I think you'll be interested in the interview!

Cyan loses his family right as we meet him, and Gau and Relm have never known their parents
Interview also notes this as part of the relationship between Cyan/Sabin/Gau heh

Also mentions the whole spy angle of Celes was originally intended to be more legit (as you've noted some intrigue on throughout the playthrough) and somewhat darker (an unhinged Celes, the same way Magitek experiments broke Kefka as mentioned by redrocket! that being with the party is what "fixes" her, originally planned)
