"Indeed," he says, and another gestures shift the scene to a bedroom, where a woman sits on her bed.

"She was the first person to defeat Sin and save the world from its ravages. However, Lady Yunalesca did not save the world alone. To defeat the undefeatable Sin... it took an unbreakable bond of love—of the kind that binds two hearts for eternity." And as he says this, a man walks into the room. Lady Yunalesca stands up and embraces him.

Kaede shoots Theo a look.

He does not say "what did I tell you," but the look says it for him.

Permalink

Theo makes no comment.

He might smirk a little though.

Permalink

Seymour walks over to Kaede and whispers something in his ear.

Permalink

Kaede... sighs. "I am very flattered, Maester Seymour," he says. "It is truly an honour. But I'm afraid I must decline. I am a summoner; my life is dedicated to my pilgrimage, and ending Sin and bringing peace to Spira. Naught else."

...this does not seem to be going as he planned it.

The illusion ends.

Theo has nothing to say.

He doesn't even roll his eyes or smirk – well, not any more than he was before.

"You don't need to give your final answer immediately—"

Permalink

"I know, and again I thank you for the honour, but I must decline." He bows. "If you will excuse me, my lord Seymour, my guardians and I should continue on our journey."

Permalink

"We likely have an arduous road ahead of us," says Theo. "Should get going soon."

Permalink

"—very well. I will hold you here no longer."

Permalink

"Let's go," says Auron. He turns around, leading them out.

Permalink

Theo follows! Then, when they're probably out of range of Maester Seymour's hearing: "Well, that was… dramatic."

Permalink

"Did he seriously—"

Permalink

"Ask me to marry him, yes, he did, just like Lady Yunalesca and Lord Zaon. So, apparently he knows about the whole 'strong emotions make good Aeons' thing, and wants to become my Final Aeon. Very charming and romantic, really."

Permalink

"… Cute," proclaims Theo.

Permalink

"Why would he do that? Didn't you see his aeon there in Luca? It was really powerful."

Permalink

Theo frowns. "He… may have been in Zanarkand? One of the ghostly replay things." Pause. "With his mom?"

Permalink

"—his mum turned into an Aeon?"

Permalink

"But his mum died, what, fifteen years ago? He was just a kid, then."

Permalink

Theo shrugs. "I think she turned into an aeon, yeah?"

Permalink

"That's... not a very nice thing to do to a kid."

Permalink

"Not a nice thing of, what, her to do?"

Permalink

"Yeah. Going on a pilgrimage, all the way to Zanarkand, to die and become a Final Aeon—you don't suppose that huge one in Luca was her?"

Permalink

"… I have no idea?"
