El Nido's Poet Girl « on: January 28, 2011, 12:35:55 am » Just trying to decipher the poet girl's poem. This seems like a good place to discuss.Quote Insanity leads to chaos, Then to solitude... The fruitless effort of adding Meaning to what is meaningless A lone, crimson tear Falls to the sea... The echo of the remaining star Cries out in the infinite vacuum The least I can do Is send my distant prayers Over the wind of time, Setting sail on dreams...Sticking strictly to Chronoverse, this poem seems to reflect, IMO, Schala. And this is a literal interpretation, so of course feel free to take whatever meaning you wish from it.The girl lost to time, breeding feelings of insanity, chaos, and solitude--all leading to her determination that life is meaningless. The crimson tear of the now-dead Lavos, once referred to as a star, falls to the sea as the Frozen Flame; its echo, the Time Devourer, lives on in the Darkness Beyond Time, feeding on her negativity. Now bound by the creature, Schala can do nothing but pray and dream... Logged Mr Bekkler Bounty Hunter Zurvan Surfer (+2500) Posts: 2736 So it goes.

I always wondered about that but never let it get too deep in my psyche because I didn't want to get too wrapped up in the possibility of it being anything to write home about.

But anyway, she didn't have to be able to know, she just knew. Logged Lady Marle Enlightened One (+200) Posts: 211 Princess Nadia of Guardia a.k.a.

That doesn't seem like a ridiculous idea to me. The way Cross ended leaves that door wide open. Who can say how all of this ends?

Re: El Nido's Poet Girl « Reply #8 on: January 28, 2011, 08:46:38 am » Would that mean she is actually Schala "Kid" Zeal as well? Interesting speculation.

Re: El Nido's Poet Girl « Reply #9 on: January 28, 2011, 03:04:24 pm » Or that Schala "kid" Zeal is her character she ...created? Or so she thinks. Maybe it was Schala trying to get that message to Serge telepathically, and got it as close as she could (his home town!)
