Huh, I actually, kinda, forgot about that.

Still, give the group some credit, they deserved some deus ex machina.

And sorry, I know I'm getting ahead of myself. The line just bugs me.

And I'm also sorry I'm not actually beating the game. I just don't understand why,after two games, they thought they had to reinvent the wheel. I really preferred the old battle system.
Stop apologising! You haven't done anything wrong. Factual or not, it is a pretty neat line. The Lightning Returns story is pretty good, so played or viewed on screen, you should go enjoy it.
