Hey everyone, Wandering Bard here! It feels very weird not to say those words in the intro, but I'm proud of this video nonetheless. I did get super lucky in some points with how the audio and visuals synced up, but one does not look a gift chocobo in the mouth lol. I also had to upload a few versions of this and trim/adjust things a bit to avoid copyright claims (something that's been on my mind since I started doing FFXVI videos) so if you notice I cut away from scenes at times, that's why. I did my best to make sure it didn't affect the quality.
I really hope you all enjoy this video; it's long overdue. I had to balance treating Caius like a villain (which is the role he fills) and that his actions were reprehensible while keeping in mind the person underneath, who was a good man consumed by despair and hopeless longing. I hope I did OK balancing that out in the script. Lmk your thoughts on Caius in the comment section!

Caius is an interesting villain, one that either clicks with me or doesn't depending on the day, but there's no denying how complicated and layered he is.

Hiring Liam O'brien to voice Caius was perhaps the best casting choice they could have possibly made.

I actually don't think I've seen anything else he's in! But he is FANTASTIC as Caius

I love Caius. I always thought he was a great villain and I sympathized with him and it was wonderful how he got a happy ending too getting to be with Yeul and helping guide others. I do want to know, is Caius in love with Yeul like Noel is or is he just a loyal protector? It feels like he might have feelings for her, but I wanted to ask you. Thank you for your videos. God bless you, Jesus loves you!

Hmm...it's difficult. It's very obvious that Caius's devotion to Yeul goes way beyond his role as Guardian. In Lightning Returns, Lightning describes Caius's quest to stop time as being "for a girl he loved," though that doesn't necessarily mean romantic. I think a romance between Caius and Yeul is awkward because of the age difference (even before he received the Heart of Chaos). It would not surprise me if a younger Caius had loved a Yeul from his past, and those feelings evolved as he grew older. I don't know his exact age, but it feels like he was old enough to have known at least two Yeuls before he became immortal. Maybe a young Caius loved one Yeul, watched her die, and those feelings were transferred to the others as he stepped into the Guardian role? It's hard to say, and the Wiki provides no help.

@@wanderingbardgaming Either way it’s still sad.. I hope if he was in love with a Yeul that he got to be with her in eternity. Of course aged up to be around his age. I learned earlier this year that Lightning x Hope is technically canon. Don’t worry, adult Hope. I found that interesting and I can see it, I mean Hope dedicated his life to trying to find her, he always wanted to be by her side and help her any way she could.. I learned that in the new world Hope returned to his adult self.

​@@sketchyann609Caius mainly wanted yeul to have a life with meaning other than just dying over and over again because of her curse.
