Sorry if this has been posted before.

I read in a plot analysis a theory that Rinoa is infact Ultimecia. IT gaves ideas of alternate universes spawned through time travel etc, however, I wanted to ask, do you think there is any merit to the idea rinoa could be ultimecia?

At first I thought maybe Ellone could be here...Odine is egotistical and assumes Ultimecia is using his machine, however we don't know this. Who else can go back in time? Ellone. That explains how she knows of Ellone.

However, if she was Ellone, what is she doing? She needs Ellone to go back further, if she is Ellone, she should be able to. Say she went back however and used the Ellone of the past to send her (possessing Adel) further into the past, a past which Ellone would not have been able to go.

It is something to discuss, not saying this is my view by the way.

Now as for Rinoa. Two things struck me. The first is on the Ragnarok when she says something along the lines of "I don't want the future, I want time to stay still" to Squall. Sounds like time compression baby.

Also, right at the end of disk 3 it says Ultimecia wants the sorceresses to be one. Now, to be one you need to pass the powers on. If there was only 1 in this time, then she must get them from that one or whom that one gave them to, or it was because she wanted to be the only one. It is possible she could be Adel too, or a mix of them both, making them one....

Thoughts?
