Edea's House
Overview
Edea's House is the ruined seaside orphanage on the Centra coast where Squall, Rinoa's companions, and several other characters lived as children. The present-day structure is weathered and largely empty, but flashbacks show it as a warm home managed by Edea and Cid. The location becomes central to the revelation that the party knew one another before joining their respective Gardens. It later serves as a meeting point for Edea, Cid, and the White SeeDs and marks the transition toward the journey to Esthar. Exploration is limited, but the area contains important dialogue, a Timber Maniacs issue, and some of the game's most significant character history.
