Seems like they're preparing a new part of Time Temple.

it would make sense that if this is the goddess dream, the place closer to her is where the "nightmare" lurks.

hey viaje, want me to plant another epileptic tree based on 2 of your quotes?

Do we even know exactly where the Goddess is?

And, are you asking my permission? Because 'want' would imply that I feel something more than apathy towards that question.

Though that would suggest the Black Mage has some close connection to the Goddess, and if indeed there is "Someone" in the Black Wings with the ability to create and control dreams/nightmares, wouldn't it be logical that the Black Mage itself is a nightmare created to scare the Goddess awake?

Someone with that kind of power could easily be much stronger than whatever the Black Mage is.

In that scenario, the Black Mage would become the tool rather than the master.
But then that brings up the question of why they had to revive him in the first place.

But wasn't that a "Nightmare Scenario" kinda deal? since it was revealed to be all a dream, such a conversation might never have occurred.

And more pressingly, that means that if the Cygnus Knights DID go for the World Tree, they could become more powerful, since it turned out to be a false future and not set in stone.

True enough about it probably not being real.
Though, along with that, I'd imagine the discovery of the World Tree was also a dream.

Everyone is having a good time, debating and stating their opinions, when you suddenly become rude enough to start a flame war. I don't get you.

On topic: You guys are going off the roof. Temple of Time IS a temple, dedicated to the goddes. The history of the Black Mage is also somehow related to Voldemort. In the Magatia storylines, the Black Mage seeks only for immortality, which he seems to have achieved. I need confirmation on this tough.

I didn't start a flame warrior nor have I been the most antagonistic in this recent discussion.
Seemingly, though, people are only able to detect my hostility and not the obvious hostility of others to which I am responding.

I do agree that the Temple of Time is a solid place.
And the Black Mage definitely has a "we're totally not ripping of Harry Potter" vibe, and he has since Edelstein was revealed.

...Eh, the Big Bang never made sense anyway.
"I'm gonna give you more convenient travel, better levelling and make you hella stronger! For the evulz"

Totally agree.

I've never considered Big Bang to be a part of the story. The only time NPCs even mentioned it was just after it happened, and that was only for the duration of events.
No one else even acts like something changed.
