My li'l Vivs

[Depression Moon]

Everyone always says this. Though its been a long time since I beat the game and I can't play through it again or watch the ending on youtube or anything. (SPOILER)But I recall Vivi walking to the play with his kids running past him and out in front of him. Everyone acts like he was never even at the play. Was one of his kids just taller than the others? I find it hard to believe my memory is that far off track. Or is his death supposed to happen afterward?

(SPOILER)Those are all Vivi's children at the end of the game, it's never mentioned that any of them are actually Vivi (and every other character appears in the ending), which is why it's thought Vivi died between Zidane's disappearance and everyone reuniting in Alexandria months later, with the letter which runs through the ending his final words.

(SPOILER)I know those were his "children". What I'm saying is I seem to recall also seeing him with them. Unless one of them is larger than the rest or something. I never had any impression that Vivi had died until it started coming up on this forum. Though the game does go into a lot of detail that their time limit is random and his had already exceeded expectation, so it makes sense if he's really not in the ending. I just recall actually seeing him. I'll have to leech a better internet connection sometime and watch the ending on youtube or something

(SPOILER)But they were all the same size, I mean, Vivi is pretty small anyways. I reckon they were like adopted children who had no parents like Vivi (he was found by that Qu dude and became his grandson). He's probably dead by this point cos the Black Mages had short lifespans. But seeing as he was 'made' by natural means as opposed to the manufactured Black Mages, it's anybodies guess.

Made by natural means? what do you mean by that?

(SPOILER)Vivi was the first black mage that Kuja created.

To Clo (SPOILER)They are Vivi's children in the way that he created them. Also by this rule Kuja is his father also. Vivi probably created these on his death because he wanted to leave a mark on the world as for who is still making them, there is no evidence that more were created than in the ending and it may be impossible. The Iifa Tree was the source of the mist and with it gone all the mist will eventually rise into the atmosphere and never return.
