So Terra cruises into Narshe with Biggs and Wedge to retrieve this frozen esper but it goes haywire. There's all this electric looking shit coming off of Terra, Biggs and Wedge get annihilated, screen fades out and oh no.
Why did this happen?
"Because Terra's half esper!" you shout. Yeah no fucking duh, but that's not what I'm asking. Gestahl knew Terra was half-esper; he knew that when he picked her up as an infant. What I'm questioning is why Gestahl would have allowed his half esper to cruise into Narshe to pick up the frozen esper.
"Because she's super powerful!" you shout. Yeah, I'll give you that. But we already know that, by this point, Cid has been busy sapping espers of their magic and infusing it into humans. Now, if you were fucking about with espers and had a half esper half human there, surely - at some point - the two would be in the same room as one another.
I simply cannot see how Gestahl could not have known Terra and Tritoch would have had some kind of weird reaction. Sloppy. Poor Biggs and Wedge died (again) for nothing!
