I never really thought about it when I first played the game and completed it, and only saw the theory that he dies on forums and stuff afterwards. Obviously it all makes sense and ties in with the themes of the Black Mages' mortality in the game, but it's still kind of depressing so I almost don't want to believe that version of events XD - but yeah from what I've seen it is widely accepted now by people that he does die at the end of the game. |
