One Rikku mentions that Yevon did something horrible to the Al Bhed before(this was on Macalonia lake, before Home was destroyed. So what was the horrible thing yevon did?
How did Jecht Get to Spira? we know Tidus got there by sin…and that was becasue he father was Sin.
How Long do Calms Last for?
2) I believe Jecht got there the same way. I don’t remember though.
3) Not very long, less than 20 years since Yuna’s father killed Sin before she did.
Yevon controls Sin
Also, Auron states that ‘I was just a boy, not much older than you.’ to Wakka, when he is talking about his service as a guardian to Braska. Wakka is 23 and Auron is now 35. So 10 years ago, Auron wouldve been 25, ‘not much older than you’.
Tidus says that Jecht went out to sea for training and never came back. I would assume he met Sin out there.
Im not sure about the Al Bhed one. Like you said, Yevon apparently did something ‘really horrible’ and that cant simply just be the global hate the Al Bhed get. It has to be an act. So maybe Sin razed their cities or something and they went and built home in the Desert away from sin? Not sure.
2. Jecht came to Spira because he touched a different Sin. Then he became Sin and brought Tidus to Spira. What I want to know is how in the heck Auron got to Zanarkand. He said he "rode Sin", but wouldn’t Sin have been dead by then? Or did he ride Jecht-Sin? He couldn’t have because he took care of Tidus since he was a kid…
3. The Calm lasts for ten years.
I believe that Jecht had already become Sin by that time & somehow got Auron to Zanarkand.
That is impossible as Sin is only "reborn" every ten years so Tidus would be grown by the time Auron was allowed to ride Jecht-Sin and there is a scene that clearly shows Auron speaking to Tidus when he was still a child.
Tidus: i thought it was wierd, Yuna’s father defeated sin ten years ago but its still alive, i never understood it until now.
That line kinda proves that sin is revived after evry 10 years, coz the time sin is gone is called the calm,
that was said on the mi’ihen highroad
Yevon destroyed the al bhed’s "old" home ages ago,
the one we see in the game is a new place the al bhed call "home"
i remember rikku talking about how the al bhed were brought together from all over spira and brought to the "new" home
as for jecht,
Tidus: he went out to the sea/beach for some training and didnt come back.
he probably met Sin while training
can’t remember when this was said tho
hope this helps
The two things FFX likes to cram down the gamer’s throat is that it’s been ten years since the last Sin "died" and that Spira is trapped in a cycle. It is quite safe to assume that since Spira is trapped within this endless cycle that each Sin is "reborn" every ten years.
3) The Calm has never lasted as much as 10 years. I’m not completely sure, but I think the last Calm lasted about 6 months to at most a year.
yea that sounds plausible. I mean sin didnt just begin attacking people again when Tidus showed up did he?? \how long ago did chappu die from sin??
Sin still exists during the calm, Yu Yevon is basically just "growing" him back to full strength during that time, so Auron would have ridden a baby Sin to Zanarkand, and Jecht would have probably still had a lot of his humanity left.
I wondered that myself… I thought perhaps it didn’t really matter where they lived as Sin could destroy coastal towns and his ‘spawn’ could destroy inland towns.
Sin can fly as well as swim, I don’t think he’d have a problem reaching inland cities.
And as for the thing that happened to the Al Bhed’s previous home, I’m fairly sure I remember Rikku or Cid mentioning it was destroyed by Bevelle. What I’d like to know is where this previous home is, surely there’s ruins of it? Or perhaps it’s the ruins you can see around Sanubia Desert, before you get to the new Home.
