*Spoiler Alert. This whole post is one big Spoiler.

“Haw haw haw! I have the power of fire! I can feel it coursing through my veins! But it’s not enough! I must defeat you, those who’ve been blessed with the light, to gain the true power of the crystal of fire! Now…die!”

Gutsco is a Thief that is chasing the Horns of Ice. He actually steals one and the Warriors of Light give chase. Once the Warriors of Light defeat Gutsco, he turns into a shadow, and follows the party to the Dwarven Hallows, where he steals both of the Horns of Ice.

After that The Warriors of Light follow him into the Molten Cave, straight to the Fire Crystal and with the Horns of Ice, he is able to get through the cave, where he obtains the power of the Crystal and turns himself into a Salamander to fight the Warriors of Light one more time.

And, one more time he loses.

And, that is pretty much Gutsco’s whole story.

Looked through Ultimanias and anything else, that could provide us with backstory, and there is nothing. Nothing at all.

“I have a name. It’s Lumina. And, I know a lot about you.”

SPOILER ALERT

If you haven’t played Lightning Returns and don’t want anything ruined, move along.

If you have, continue on.

Datalog Entry

-Lumina

This mysterious young girl appears to be able to control the power of Chaos, and likes to get in Lightning’s way at every turn.

It seems that she has met Snow before, and the two have more than just a passing acquaintance. but Lightning has spent the last five centuries in crystal, and she has no way of knowing what could have happened between the two.

Still, she cannot deny that the girl bears a striking similarity to Serah. But Serah is dead, and this Lumina seems to have her own goals.

So, just who is Lumina?

Lumina, is a vessel that was created when Lightning went into Crystal Stasis, in order to protect Serah’s heart to protect her from Chaos.. And, while Lightning was in Crystal Stasis, Lumina kept in contact with everyone that was a part of Lightning’s story.

From being there when Fang and Vanille woke up from their Crystal Stasis, to keeping Vanille company when she was lonely as the High Priestess. Showing Noel the oracle drive where he defeats Lightning, Giving Sazh a coffer of souls to collect Dajh’s Soul Fragments in order for him to wake up. Lumina also came in contact with Caius and Snow, but not Hope. Nothing to do with Hope, because Hope is dead. He’s just a puppet now. Bhunivelze’s puppet.
