    Oh, is it that Laguna wishs that he hasn't gone to rescue Ellone and stayed with Raine when she gave birth to Squall? you know we can say that he grew older after her death, he wished Ellone wasn't there so he can be there....don't know if it is right though....

    Is it when Laguna is looking into the 'cage/cell' thing with Ellone inside and he wants to go and rescue her?

    The riddle:
    "Lo and behold",
    Ol' Laguna says to Ellone.

    "If I were you,
    I'd give in for my age
    in a previous world,
    without Elle."


    The riddle to the extent it's figured out:
    "Low and behind",
    Old Laguna says to Ellone.


    Wrong guesses:
    Raine
    Squall
    Edea
    Dr. Odine
    Time compression
    Laguna card
    Laguna's love for Ellone
    The space station
    Outer heaven
    Junction machine Ellone
    The player
    Youth
    Laguna deciding not to go looking for Ellone
    Ultimecia's castle
    Timber
    White SeeD ship
    "Loire"
    The opening movie sequence
    Iguion
    Ellone's birth
    Laguna's first sight of Ellone
    Laguna's last sight of Ellone
    A gun
    Lol (lol)
    Behemoth
    Laguna wishing he was young again


    Hints:
    The answer is not a person.
    A part of the riddle (not the answer) is a teeny bit related to time, but not in an obvious way.
    The first part is a clue to find the answer, but you have to figure the first part out by figuring the second part out, which is referring to the first part.
    Look for connections in the riddle.
    The answer is not an obtainable item.
    Question the riddle.
    Think about every separate word, even some common words. Most of them are chosen for a reason.
    Wikipedia, dictionary.com etc. wont help you much (if any) with this one riddle.
    Do not try to find the answer in the riddle, in fact, forget about looking for the answer and try to figure out what's up with the riddle.
    Word play
    The second part is directed at the riddle solver.
    The answer is not abstract (events, feelings etc.).
    The two first lines are the last key to find the answer but for that to happen you must figure out the "secret" of the second part. It will lead you to the first part which, with the key found in the second part, gives you a good clue on how to find out the answer.
    The second part is instructions for the first part.
    The lines "in a previous world without Elle" have been figured out to mean simply "in a previous word" which refers to a specific word in one of the first two lines.
    "If I were you" does not mean "If 'I' was 'U'".
    "Age" relates to the fact that in the second line Laguna is "Ol'".
    The first line, "Lo and behold" is very significant.
    "Give in" does not mean the same as "give up" in this case.
    "Lo and behold" is the strongest link to the answer and hence something you'll have to figure out later on.
    "Give in for my age" is more word play.
    The riddle contains no anagrams.
    Question: When you give in for your age do you replace a word with the word in? - Answer: Almost, but not really.
    Note the implication of Laguna's old age.
    "Lo and behold" does not relate to the phrase "Low and be old".
    There is something in the last two lines (especially the last) that you might not have thought of.
    Laguna says the first line to Ellone when she's there. That fact is important to the riddle.
    The previous word is in the first line.

    No the scene wasn't right, I meant there was one detail wrong about the way you think.

    Owen and IceAngel, no, the answer is NOT abstract as in "when X looked at/felt/happened to/wished Y"

    Is it the ending? They are both there, but not necessarily together at the same point. By the looks of things Ellone is on a hill aswell where as Laguna and Raine seem to be on a low part of land.
    I'll figure it out later...

    Lol, but it's so little left! What could be "low and behind" (relative to Laguna, btw)? To know that you must know where he is and where he is looking. The riddle tells you that with the second line and the hints given.

    He is at his oldest when looking at Raine's Grave. Is that the answer? The other time is when he proposes to her which is when he was young.

    The grave is on the ground, and because if he were to face Ellone, the grave would be behind him in the sense of the settings of the ending
