By all means Doomgaze, if you have a problem with this thread or the questions I'm asking, don't post. I haven't played FF6 in a while, and I was sketchy on the details. Sue me.

I'm just saying, you know full well that a piece of Magicite you pick up at a auction house doesn't have a big backstory.
Well, it didn't just appear out of thin air, so it has some kind of origin, even if it is as small as.. I dunno, something small.
Backstory: When the world changed that day, surely some espers being held captive by the empire died. Someone found their magicite remains and decided it would make some good prices at the auction house, and for the price we pay for them, he's right!
I like that, that sounds interesting.
The Espers had already all been turned into magicite by the 'end of the world'. The magicite at the auction house are just things found and sold.
Not true, when you go through the research center, you see Espers in the test tunes, not magicite.Quote:

As soon as you finish your first run through of the facility, they're turned into magicite. By the time of the World of Ruin, there's none left.Quote:

We're talking about the magitek research facility in the world of balance. While playing through, the Espers in one room turn into magicite and you recieve them but it's safe to assume that more than one room has Espers. After the sealed cave event the Espers from the other world go crazy and attack the capitol, so you could say they died in the attack, but this is shortly before the "end of the world" anyway. You have to assume their are more Espers in the world than what the game supplies for your. Use you imagination.
[EDIT] Wow, in the time it took me to write this, you already replied.
Yeah, I was thinking about the possibility of other espers.. I was also thinking about there maybe being other espers that could have been alive during the war, but met their demise and didn't make it to the Esper world, or to the Final Fantasy VI storyline. Thats one of the reasons I think a prequel game would be really cool, but Squenix is focusing on all Final Fantasy VII spin offs.. So oh well. Besides, the Final Fantasy VI prequel game would be really cool, but only if Square did it right, and didn't mess anything up about the story or something.
Like Tritoch? (kind of)
What about Tritoch? I was thinking in the prequel they could explain the whole Tritoch cave thing.. Is that what you meant?
That he was alive during the war, I guess.
