Oh I know all about mishearing Kain. "Dragon's flask! WITH ALL MY STRING!""LAMBS OF THE COVENS!""Dragoons skip to me!"
The first one definetly has a lot of logical weight to it in terms of theory; we never hear a true Landis accent (because Basch fled to Dalmasca we can't tell if that is a faithful rendition of the accent or if it has adapted overtime) so Gabranth disguising his heritage with an archadian one makes a lot of sense. (I haven't played XII in over a year so I'll have to check that out)
I'm not too sure about the epilectic trees (mostly because they are epilectic trees) but they don't seem to have any evidence to prove they're wrong. It's the same with the Kuja-could've-been-a-Cosmos-warrior theory; because we have snippets of potential and no proper evidence to discredit the notion it could as well be taken that way. But hey, awesome theories are awesome and until S-E decides they don't like it we're free to assume that Gabranth is Basch, Kuja was summoned by Cosmos originally and that Yuna turned into a J-poppy petty thief because she hung out with Zidane for far too long.
But nice reasoning and a very interesting read. :)
