Geddoe in S3 *some minor S3 spoilers*

TruePerception

I just recently (yesterday, actually) played chapter 4 in where you pick Geddoe to be the Flame Champion, and I really enjoyed the extra information you get about how Geddoe feels about his old friend, the FC. In just a few short lines, it adds incredible depth to his character. I implore any Geddoe-nay-sayers, to play this ending.

(spoilers if you haven't played this ending or beat the game)

I also noticed the great struggle between True Fire and True Lightning as TL was forced from Geddoes body. This brings up two points to me. First, if the pain of the struggle and seperation waw so great at that moment, why wasn't it as great when Luc and Sarah removed the True Runes from our three heroes later in the game. And secondly, why did it take two runes for Luc to remove a True Rune from a body forcefully, but the True Fire Rune pushed out the True Lightning Rune by its self. One conclusion I came up with is that the True Rune, in being rejected by its former bearer, didn't struggle as much, and thus chose to leave Geddoes body for Hugos. This brings about an interesting concept, in that, True Runes not only think, but feel as well.

the main reason why geddoe's true lightning rune left his body if you choose him as your flame champ is because a true rune bearer cannot hold more than one true rune. don't know why but it's just against the laws apprently. i don't think it took luc 2 true runes, it was more on the spell that he had to casts to extract the rune and seal it in the floating seal thingy *forgot the name of it*. can the true runes think ya i would say that they can due to seeing the rune some times act on it's own. like in 1 were the soul eater takes the lives even thought tir never commanded it to. the rune of punishment for always looking for a new bearer after it devoures it's current host. true water rune for unleashing it's power in that one stage in 3.

Well, if I were a True Rune, and wanted to inhabit Geddoe's body, I would put my whole effort behind the struggle against the True Rune already inhabiting Geddoe. However, if I were simply being used as a tool by Luc, I would certainly not be as enthusiastic to drive Runes out of his opponents' bodies.

Perhaps this means that a True Rune that is bonded with its bearer is more potent than one that is controlled by force? Maybe Harmonia's hubris at trying to control the uncontrollable (that is, control the True Runes) wiill come back to haunt her...

I dunno. I just thought that Geddoe was willing to give up his True Lightning Rune, so that's why it left so easily. Geddoe wanted the True Fire Rune. When we're talking about Luc, Geddoe didn't want to lose his old rune. That would be the difference right there. At least that is my interperatation, which, if it is wrong, still makes logical sense.

Perhaps it is because Geddoe's True Lightning rune was hidden inside his body as opposed to the normal left or right hand?

Luc's extraction technique was painful. Luc says that "the procedure is quite painful". I think it is a matter of interpretation when you say it wasn't as painful. Maybe it was but just did not appear to be?

*edited for 1) going WAY off topic 2) spamming 3) the member not reading and following rules.

do a search; honestly, it's not that hard, sII has been out long enough for this info to be present SOMEWHERE, just look for it, rather than clog up a topic with nonsense.*

i believe it was more painful for him when the true fire rune pushed the true lightning rune out. but you brought up a good point. did luc actually need 2 true runes to extract the the true runes out of the 3? if so then he did he aquire the true earth rune from sassari since luc only had one true rune.

I believe it was only painful for Geddoe and everyone else because the True Fire Rune forced it's way to become the true rune. Where as when Luc stole them all Geddoe didn't seem to be very tired just kneeled on the floor. While if i recale correctly everyone else collapses for some time. So it is quite possible that Geddoe became use to this. As well as this may have happened once before

i don't recall in the game but did chris or hugo seem to suffer any pain when they gained their true rune. like how when ted got his true rune back he passed out.
