Yu-Yevon

[DynasticJam]

Of course I know that he's the creator of sin, but what do you think Yu-Yevon came from? (I dont think this thread is going to get very long!)

[Christmas]

He is the ruler of the "real" Zanarkand and father of Yunalesca.

[DynasticJam]

Is he really the farther of Yunalesca! If he really is, then how come I never knew that!

Well I can understand it, but how did he become...Yu-Yevon?

[Christmas]

Go talk to Maechen in Mount Gagazet ...


The Destruction of Zanarkand

Maechen
"There is a legend, you know."
"Just before the horrible Sin appeared..."
"a terrible war raged between Bevelle and Zanarkand."
"When the armies of Bevelle attacked Mount Gagazet, they heard a song echoing across the snowy slopes."
""'Tis a song from an otherworld," they said. The soldiers panicked and ran."
"And then, as if to pursue the retreating armies, Sin appeared!"
"Some time later, scouts from Bevelle braved the mountain."
"On the other side, they witnessed the ruins that had been Zanarkand."
"The city destroyed. Not a single soul left standing. Gone!"
"In its place, a multitude of the fayth had gathered on Gagazet."
"They were singing a song."
"It's the song we now call the "Hymn of the Fayth.""
"And that, as they say, is that."
"Well...maybe not all of it."

This is how Sin came about.


Yevon and Yunalesca

Maechen
"Rumors flew in Bevelle about Sin's sudden appearance."
"They said that the people of Zanarkand became the fayth, that they had called Sin."
"And that the man responsible..."
"was none other than the summoner Yevon, ruler of Zanarkand!"
"Yes, the lord father of Lady Yunalesca."
"On the eve of Zanarkand's destruction, Lady Yunalesca..."
"had fled to safety with her husband, Zaon."
"Later, the two used the Final Summoning to defeat Sin."
"Yet the people of Bevelle still feared Yu Yevon."
"It was to quell his wrath that they revered him, and first spread his teachings."
"And so were born the temples of Yevon."
"I suppose it's possible Yunalesca had planned it that way from the start!"
"A fair trade, she defeats Sin in exchange for her lord father's honor."
"Of course, there's no proof. No, the facts are lost in the mists of time."
"And who'd admit Yevon was an enemy of Bevelle?"
"You can bet the temples had a hand in covering that one up!"
"And that, as they say, is that."

This tell you about Yu Yevon and Yunalesca

The Hymn of the Fayth

Maechen
"Let me tell you about the Hymn of the Fayth."
"It was once a Zanarkand song sung in defiance of Bevelle!"
"Of course, the Yevon clergy of Bevelle forbade it."
"Then, as these things often go, those who disliked Yevon began to sing it."
"The Al Bhed, for instance."
"The Hymn of the Fayth became the symbol of defiance against Yevon."
"Yevon could do nothing but capitulate."
"They lifted the ban on the song and spread a new story."
"They said the hymn was a song sung to soothe the souls of the dead."
"And so saying, they took the song and made it scripture."
"That's why today, the hymn is sung all over Spira."
"You could say that, though Zanarkand is gone from this world, it lives on in the song."
"Aaaah, but look at the time. I've rambled on again."
"I do love stories, you see."
"Well, I owe you my gratitude for hearing this old scholar out."

This is about the Hymn of the Fayth.

[ThroneofDravaris]

This belongs in the FFX forum, but whatever...

Either he needed to transform into that bug thing (Majora's Mask anyone?) in order to Summon the Dream of the Fayth, or he became like that because there was no one left who remembers what he truly looks like

[DynasticJam]

This belongs in the FFX forum, but whatever...

I know, I didn't realise where I had posted it, but what does it matter?

[GunbladeMaster]

it matters not

[ThroneofDravaris]

It matters in that Yu-Yevon was a character in FFX, not FFX-2. And if you think these two games are inseparable, you are sadly mistaken.

[DynasticJam]

So what do you expect me to do about it now! We all make mistakes!

[Christmas]

I guess you already know what you want to know about Yu Yevon, As for the thread, just dun do it the next time. :kaolove:

[Primus Inter Pares]

What ToD is trying to say is that you're a lot more likely to get badly constructed, incoherent replies when you posted it in the X-2 forum.

The "bug thing" was essentially the physical manifestation of Yu Yevon's soul. He himself would have been the "foundation" for the original Sin, as the tradition of the Final Summoning had not yet been enacted. Following the original "defeat" of Sin, Yunalesca's Final Aeon would have been possessed by Yu Yevon, that "thing."

[Crossblades]

So what do you expect me to do about it now! We all make mistakes!

Tell a mod to move it then

[DynasticJam]

I can't be bothered!

[GunbladeMaster]

the mods can see it for themselves and move it themselves

[Crossblades]

ok then get back on topic then :p

[GunbladeMaster]

uh ok

um

Yu Yevon....................is.................my.......idol?

[boys from the dwarf]

yu-yevon is a funny crab thing. end of story.

[rubah]

He came from his parents, seeing how he was human once long ago.

I was going to move this to the FFX forum, but if gunblade master is going to be so mean about it, might as well let it get replies fitting of it being in the x-2 forum :P

[GunbladeMaster]

....:D.....

[Primus Inter Pares]

I was going to move this to the FFX forum, but if gunblade master is going to be so mean about it, might as well let it get replies fitting of it being in the x-2 forum :P
Rubah wins this thread, big time :bow:
