How Did Rinoa (Spoiler)

[serenoa]

I have never heard of her overdrive how do you use it?

[Skyblade]

That's just FFX's name for Limit Breaks (I take it that rubah was playing FFX recently). Edea's limit break is gotten the same way everyone else's is. Get her down to low health and presto! It looks a lot like what she did to Squall at the end of disc one. (BTW, whatever happened to that wound? Squall notices that it's missing, but we never learn why, do we?)

[Sir Bahamut]

We never do learn why, that's right. Edea probably used magic to completely heal it.

[rubah]

I *always* have played ffx recently

as for the wound-- seifer probably wanted him to return to conscious so he could torture him. If you've got a big crap hole in your chest, you seem to think about that a bit more than you'd think a few measly sparks shooting through you.

or so it'd seem.

[serenoa]

I think it was in his upper shoulder was'nt it.

[Zangan]

Is it possible no actual 'wound' was made at all?

The 'icicle' shes uses IS similar to Edea's limit break, which when used doesn't leave permanent damage - just like all magic in the game and any other Final Fantasy game.

The large icicle, or whatever it was, is unleased at the end of your battle with Edea, when she would have low health i.e. limit break. Maybe it knocked Squall down in the same way as magic does in battle, with no physical scar. Just a theory.

[rubah]

I thought about that.

Maybe that's why he's all 'WTF?' when he looks down at it.

"there's a great big icicle in me. WHY CAN'T I FEEL ANYTHING?"

[Zangan]

It would explain why he gets knocked out by its power and then wakes with no wound. Can't imagine Square doing something as stupid as forgetting to give him a wound . . .

but when edea temporily jions your party her weapon is SORCERY, how could she use socery if she wasn't a sorceress

[Squall of SeeD]

The point of that was more than likely to keep the player from knowing that she had lost her powers until later on. Despite what the status screen says concerning Edea's weapon, we're told flat out later on that she had given up her powers without knowing it and that they had gone to Rinoa:

Zell
"S'up Squall!!!"
"So glad you're safe!"
"I hate to tell you this now, but we've got major problems down here."
"Well, here it goes!"
"Some big thing called Lunatic Pandora came out of nowhere."
"Matron couldn't achieve what she set out to do because of it. Which is ok."
"Matron's not a sorceress anymore."
"Matron gave away her power to someone without realizing it."

Squall
(To Rinoa......)

In any event, the Para-Magic utilized by those in Garden is intended to simulate the Sorceress Power, anyway. Sorcery is defined as utilizing spirits to make things happen. Guardian Forces are utilized to use Magicks. All of the characters that are using Magic are practicing Sorcery.

They didn't. If they had forgotten, Squall never would have wondered why it wasn't there.

[BorIzEE27]

Don't they heal squall for interrogation of SeeD's true mission.

[Squall of SeeD]

Don't they heal squall for interrogation of SeeD's true mission.

It's never said that they do, but I would assume that to be the case. That's the only possibility that fits.

[TasteyPies]

Square isn't above plot-holes imo. They probably forgot xD.

[Squall of SeeD]

Square isn't above plot-holes imo. They probably forgot xD.

They're not above them, no, but they didn't forget. When Squall wakes up in the Galbadian Desert Prison, he's surprised to find that he doesn't have a wound.
