Rinoa/Ultimecia theory

Yeah, so it is impossible for them to be the same. Case close.

I love this theory. I think I've read so much about it but some things still don't make sense. I'll just throw out a few things I've read.

So a few factors that make people believe Rinoa is Ultimecia are:
- Rinoa kept Griever, and Ultimecia has Griever as her GF.
- sorceresses don't die.
- Ultimecia possessed Edea and had Cid build Balamb Garden to make SeeD. She wanted SeeD to kill her because she was alone in the future.
- the story is pretty much an endless cycle. Squall and everyone else will grow old and die. Rinoa will never die and will become the sorceress of the future. So she goes to the past and causes havoc and time compression so that the SeeD in the past, the younger Squall, could get to her and kill her.

There's a lot more info. on this theory. Just wanted to share what I had.

Uh, they messed up on the theories hooded. First off, griever is actually squall's griever in his mind. If you used scan on griever, you will understand. Not only that, ultimecia didn't possess edea to force cid to make seed. Edea and cid made seed in order to save people from the sorceresses in the sorceress war. Edea had saved Ellone ( I think that's what her name is) from getting controlled by ultimecia and decided to be controlled by ultimecia. The story is not a endless cycle because, just like I said above, if ultimecia is rinoa and she tried to kill herself, then the ultimecia that they think is rinoa will cease to exist, so as a fact, rinoa is not ultimecia.
