about the origin of ultimecia (big big spoiler)

[Future Esthar]

Art galleries don´t need to have pictures related to each other.That´s why they are art.
But I dont see Ulti´s picture as reductionist or modernist or surrealist or whatever we name the pictures of Van Ghog or Salvador Dali or others.
They don´t look like that.They were pictures which worked like a diary describing present and future events.

Xerampelinae:Ultimecia herself as the queen
Venus: Love is what make the world bleed.(the picture is all red)
Vigil :The guardians that watch over the castle.

That´s exactly how I interpret them.
And the guardians were Vascaroon(Laguna),Kyros and Ward.
Of course after time compression Ulti changed they destiny making them Galbadian Soldiers.But I will show you later that Vascaroon acomplished his good destiny (he used Time compression and Elle´s abilities for his and the worlds benefit).

And there is also a lot more other ways to interpret way the pictures through the eyes of spectators but only the artist know the real answer.

Exactly.I am open to other interpretations (and wanna to find if someone has an interesting one).
This is one of the fun of the forums.We can share our theories and also see the others to increase your knowledge.This way we can learn more things about the game.
