The mystery of Edge

Post by executorofbalance »

I seriously think I'm not getting enough credit for this speculation.

Evidence: Edge says the star dragon sword is given to him by someone very special...so who is that someone special...? Obviously Viktor! I mean, who else had it? Viktor had it in Suikoden I & II in order to defeat Neclord. So, how does the star dragon sword end up with Edge? Perhaps it was given to him...by his FATHER! Viktor and Lady Anabelle do seem to have some prior relationship in Suikoden II. When Jowy goes to kill Anabelle, she asks him to wait untill she's finished her drink, saying it was from someone special...Who is this someone special? Well, Viktor was drinking with her shortly before that, so Viktor is special to her.
Edge was born 3 years before the Dunan Unification War. He was obviously elsewhere during Suikoden II. Also, Edge and Anabelle have the same color hair, and Edge somehow obtains the Star Dragon Sword. So somewhere during the time between Suikoden II & III, Viktor gives his sword to his son.
So, in conclusion, I strongly specualte that Viktor and Anabelle are Edge's parents.

The evidence is compelling, and I can't seem any evidence to the contrary, however, if anyone has any evidence against this, please let me know.

I can agree to that. The interesting thing is this-- did Edge know Viktor was his father or not?

We already know where Edge came from and how he got the sword. Your version isn't even close.

the bio has no mention of Edge's family or anything, it just says how he met Viktor and Flik when they came to rescue his town from vampires. since it IS the video game world, anything can be revealed. however, Konami likes to keep small mysterious details as "unknown".

Well, actually the bio says they go to rescue Edge's older sister. I did some research on this and by the time line, Edge was born three years prior to the Dunan Unification War, the same year the Gate Rune War ended. So unless Victor worked fast, or knew Annabelle before the war, which is very likely, he'd still have to find Annabelle, get her pregnant and Edge be born that same year.

Judging by the conversation they had while drinking the wine, seems like whatever relationship they had was strictly platonic with maybe that mutual attraction between them. But Victor stating she was a high born lady and couldn't be seen with someone like him made me feel they had never had a romantic relationship.

:D I like your theory. But I doubt that Viktor even had a kid with Anabelle

based on the conversation, it doesn't seem like they ever hooked up. :P

they flirted with eachother, appear to already know eachother, and get drunk together.
I've read a lot of biographies and not once have i ever come across that. Link?

yeah, but Viktor gives her that wine. And when Jowy comes to kill her, she asks him to wait untill she finishes it because it was givin to her by someone special.

In Suikoden 2 Viktor apparently goes to see Sierra with a bottle of wine when he's lonely aswell.. Sierra says it in the comment box about how it feels living with humans.

talk about digging a thread

the speculation fits

whether Viktor and Annabelle did or did not have a relationship is purely subjective

but we all agree the two have a special something between them

offsprings can sprout with or without relationship

and by far no one had said anything solid or decent to refute this speculation

however, what about the sister?

Viktor and Annabelle never hit it off as a couple but managed to have two kids?

that's pretty alarming and quite a scandal for a public figure in Muse

either Annabelle got away with that, or this speculation ain't true
