At a remote temple in China, a Kung Fu master keeps the past alive replug.link/97895a40

Garnered a free day so I managed to play some more FF8, and I just got to fly Balamb garden around and -

So. So so. Guys I have met Ellone - no, not sweet baby Ellone, but adult Ellone! And it’s not the first time we have seen her, I know that face from saving her from a bunch of monsters!

There’s actually a lot more that I could and probably should talk about, but Ellone’s appearance, the way she talks to Squall, and his subsequent flashback to himself as a kid has made my mental gears start turning, and so I’m now off to theorize:

(And I would like to point out, things like “close”, “you’re way off” or “getting there” are all welcome, but please try to avoid any spoilers yet, since I’m playing this for the first time. Thank you!)

Sooooo. Based on what I know so far, I’m gonna go ahead and say -

“Uncle” Laguna and Raine were like adoptive parents to Ellone. Ellone loving Laguna is, based on that, completely normal. But, and here starts the theorizing - the fact that she wants Squall to live through Laguna’s memories - especially Squall, because while the other party members have differed and sometimes been Kiros or Ward, it was always Squall who ended up in Laguna’s body - for me, that means there’s something important going on between Ellone and Squall, and LAguna and Squall. Ellone wants him to witness something. Or remember something? Both? 

So based on that, I’m gonna go ahead and say Laguna is Squall’s Dad. And since he helped raise Ellone, that would make Ellone kind of Squall’s sister - thus the trust. And as for Squall’s Mum? Well I would be my entire playthrough on the fact that it’s Raine! Okay,  At the last time I left them, Laguna and Raine weren’t a couple then - yet! I’m fairly sure they became one, and Squall’s their kid.

I think this would also fit from the timeline, since it was approximatley 17 years ago that Laguna was in Winhill (based on the fact that he ended up in Shumi Village during that time while trying to save Ellone from the mountains close by, meaning he knew her then already), and I think Squall’s around that age.

That leaves the fact of - where the heck are Laguna and Raine in all this? Squall lived in an orphanage!

So from the flashbacks, it’s probably save to say that Laguna went to travel the world and write about it. Kiros proposed that to him in the last flashback. He was hesistant, yes, but I mean it was his dream to become a journalist, and I will bet that Raine would have kicked his ass if he didn’t go and follow his dream (I imagine her to be a tough cookie!) I would bet Laguna’s out and about writing stories. Maybe those Timber Magazines which we can collect?

As for Raine... well I just WAS in Winhill (of the present) and it seems to be hinted that there’s a ghost... so, sadly, it looks like Raine is dead. (I’m actually boomed about this, and I only knew her for like, five minutes)

So that puts Laguna on a worldtrip (I assume he didn’t know that Raine was pregnant, else not even a hundred chocobos could have moved him from her side) and Raine, well, dead. Which made Ellone and Squall orphans - which explains the orphanage!

And going from baby Squall’s flashback (”Ell, I will do everything alone!”) I think it’s save to say that Ellone, as the older, and the one who was hunted for her abilities, left Squall behind in the orphanage for his protection. Which explains why he was alone - maybe also explains why he can’t remember her? Though that’s a stretch. Either he forgot about her because he was too young, or because of trauma of being left behind or.... I don’t know, spontaneous memory loss! Magic! Ellone messed with her time abilities! Or he got hit on the head. I don’t know, okay, on this part I’m still wonky! XD

Soooo. Squall, Laguna, Ell and Raine are family.

How close am I? =D 50 %?

(Also if that isnt’ clear yet, I adore this family. If they are one. They  will always be one in my heart at least!)

Panama Canal cruises are increasing in popularity as a unique, close-up, and relaxing way to experience local culture. The Canal cruises offer a chance to see one of the world’s most well-known canals. And this year is especially historic. With the 20th anniversary of the United States’ transference of the canal to Panamanian ownership on December 31, 1999.

The Canal cruises are distinctive in that travelers are able to appreciate the canal’s historic and modern features from the water.
