I let him out of his cell in Walz Tower, after I did, he said "I'll never forget this", so I thought he'd come back to help me out later on in the game, and that it was the right thing to do (story wise). Now i've discovered he steals one of the treasures in Jecht Cave. :(
Was this treasure good? and does he do it to anything else in the game, like Excalibur or Masamune. If so i'm going to have to start again.
was a whip or something... i doubt you would have used it anyway
So thats the only thing he steals. That's alright then, I don't have anyone who uses a Whip in the party.
That's what you get for freeing prisoners, now isn't it?
The treasure is a Shock Whip, which isn't particularly great.
It also changes the scene on the steamship at the end when he comes to get in front of the pipe very minutely.
I can remember near five years ago I asked this very same question and Kishi answered it for me :p
:aimsun:
Which makes me think that Kishi is not a man, but he is a robot desinged by Square-Enix to answer any and all questions that have to do with life, liberty, and the Final Fantasy series.Quote:

I, too, released him. Because usually, it's a good thing to help criminals escape.
At least he get's crushed to death.
the shock whip is pretty good when you first get it
Remind me not to be a prisoner in eestlinc's town.
I think I also let the Lone Wolf out of his cell. It's not like I'd miss having the Shock Whip, especially when I rarely even use classes that could equip it.
whats the advantage of letting him out his cell? do you get some secret item or is there something interesting that happens but wont happen if he is not free?
he travels to FFVII and revives Aeris
there is no advantage to letting him out except you can feel good about yourself for freeing a soul bound in chains.
Actually, WS Merwin has a poem on this topic:
The Stranger
One day in the forest there was somebody
who had never been there before
it was somebody like the monkeys but taller
and without a tail and without so much hair
standing up and walking on only two feet
and as he went he heard a voice calling Save me
as the stranger looked he could see a snake
a very big snake with a circle of fire
that was dancing all around it
and the snake was trying to get out
but every way it turned the fire was there
so the stranger bent the trunk of a young tree
and climbed out over the fire until he
could hold a branch down to the snake
and the snake wrapped himself around the branch
and the stranger pulled the snake up out of the fire
and as soon as the snake saw that he was free
he twined himself around the stranger
and started to crush the life out of him
but the stranger shouted No No
I am the one who has just saved your life
and you pay me back by trying to kill me
but the snake said I am keeping the law
it is the law that whoever does good
receives evil in return
and he drew his coils tight around the stranger
but the stranger kept on saying No No
I do not believe that is the law
so the snake said I will show you
I will show you three times and you will see
and he kept his coils tight around the stranger's neck
and all around his arms and body
but he let go of the stranger's legs
Now walk he said to the stranger Keep going
so they started out that way and they came
to a river and the river said to them
I do good to everyone and look what they
do to me I save them from dying of thirst
and all they do is stir up the mud
and fill my water with dead things
the snake said One
the stranger said Let us go on and they did
and they came to a carandá-i palm
there were wounds running with sap on its trunk
and the palm tree was moaning I do good
to everyone and look what they do to me
I give them my fruit and my shade and they cut me
and drink from my body until I die
the snake said Two
the stranger said Let us go on and they did
and came to a place where they heard whimpering
and saw a dog with his paw in a basket
and the dog said I did a good thing
and this is what came of it
I found a jaguar who had been hurt
and I took care of him and he got better
and as soon as he had his strength again
he sprang at me wanting to eat me up
I managed to get away but he tore my paw
I hid in a cave until he was gone
and here in this basket I have
a calabash full of milk for my wound
but now I have pushed it too far down to reach
will you help me he said to the snake
and the snake liked milk better than anything
so he slid off the stranger and into the basket
and when he was inside the dog snapped it shut
and swung it against a tree with all his might
again and again until the snake was dead
and after the snake was dead in there
the dog said to the stranger Friend
I have saved your life
and the stranger took the dog home with him
and treated him the way the stranger would treat a dog
Does he? I don't rember. (If this is a joke sorry I often miss them)Quote:
