I think I might be an official nerd

Japanese isn't big on gender-determining pronouns so it's often hard to tell. There are several forms of "I" that can tell gender, but I don't find any of those. Other people always refer to him as Guyra without a gender determiner.
I think, but wouldn't swear to it, someone on these forums has suggested in the Japanese version at least that Guyra was female? I think it was Holydiver who made the claim insisting he had read all the Japanese text but I couldn't be certain.
John - wanna take a stab at that one...I know you've had your fair share of time reading through the Japanese dialogs.
I did find one place where the word "mother" is used in the same sentence as Guyra's name, but it isn't referring to Guyra. The official translation read:
Quote:The Guards of Endless Time are the Woods, the Winds and the Fog. Everything is created and destroyed by the earth. For everyone who loves their mother, Guyra must be destroyed.
What it actually says is:
Quote:The fog, wind and forest guard the eternal cycle. Everything is created and destroyed by the will of the earth. You must defeat Guyra for everyone who loves mother earth.
Maybe someone thought 'mother earth' was referring to guyra? If someone wants to double check my translation:

Where is this text found in game?
This is one in Vallad's favor, for once
Vallad doesn't appear to be female but, according to him and only him, "he" mothered Seath, Guyra and pretty much all life on Earth.
As to the "fog, winds, and woods" reference, any idea what that means?
