I was wondering what happened to you!  I was actually just about to PM you on FFO to let you know I wouls be starting up Book 2  shortly.  Glad to see you back!

And as far as Kefka and Doom...not quite, but a good theory.  Kefka is a very delicate character to try and expand upon, since the driving force of his popularity is the fact that he is simply insane with no redeeming qualities or strings attached.  No sympathy, not tragic backstory, no hidden force controlling him.  Absolutely nothing to make him something to pity, or even relate to.  And yet, I want him to be more than that while still being what he is, and what people love him for.  I want him to be connected to the bigger picture, while not becoming just another incarnation of some previous villain, or a puppet like Golbez.  I want him to still be Kefka, and I want everything he does to still be his own accomplishments and his own evil deeds born from his own evil mind and heart, but I want him to still have some kind of connection to the greater forces at work in the world of FFVI.

So that "voice" you hear in his head is much more complex than a Zemus type overmind controlling him or speaking to him.  That voice IS Kefka's inner voice, and yet it is more than Kefka.  It will be a long time until I get into what really is going on with Kefka, or even until I get into anything remotely related to that voice.  It won't be until the climax of the War of the Magi(book 4) that you begin to get an idea of what may actually be happening within Kefka.  And of course, it won't be until Book 6 that you actually understand it completely.
