I tend to be... sceptical of anyone who starts his threads with an attitude of 'this is the truth' We're all just people with an oppinion here. As to who painted the picture? Considering the castle DOES belong to Ulti, it'sl ikely that if Ulti didn't paint it, it's at least there with her approval.
My oppinion of 'In the Garden Sleeps a Messenger'?
I tend to think that we have to consider the 'Greek' term of 'messenger', that being 'angelos', especially since the whole thing has a 'genesisy' feel. 'In the Garden sleeps an angel' (Diablos is a dark messenger, a dark angel) Who wears angel wings and spend some time in a coma in Garden?
Rinoa.
