The promise between Squall and Rinoa is something unique, something only real lovers would do. Nobody would get to this phrase without questioning themselves.

 

Although, this phrase has been seen in the far beginning of the game, it doesn't have any other meaning rather then in disc 3. The reason why you could see this phrase was meant for you to know that this game would be a romance game. Unlike most other games you could directly find out that the guy and the girl would be together in the end, so that blew of some curiosity.

 

In disc 3 you find out that Rinoa has become a sorceress and is afraid to go public. She asks if they could go to Edea's house, yet disagreed by the others. Eventually you have too to take the Ragnarok to Edea's house. While entering you see Angelo running to the left side, you only have to follow. Wether Rinoa is directly in your group or not (which you then have to wait for her), a conversation starts which leds you see a other side of Squall.

 

Rinoa starts talking about how scared she is that Ultimecia would posses her again and that Squall would have to kill her. Squall is amazed by her saying this and tries to comfort her on his own personal way that she isn't the sorceress that he is after. It doesn't comfort Rinoa to the fulliest, yet she becomes a little calmer about it.

 

Squall then takes a big decision, a decision he just flips out, but soon accepts in order not to loose someone again. In order for Rinoa to stay with him forever wether when they love each other or not, or if she becomes evil or not, he'll be her knight. In the end Squall becomes the real knight, not Seifer who only was running after his dream. A real knight comes after a decision, not a dream.

 

It isn't certain wether Rinoa knows the fact that Squall would be her knight, maybe he won't for some time not to get her worry about him. Squall would be with her in full light or darkness and will do everything in order to protect her, even giving his life or love. In the end I would think that everyone would protect each other. In order not to get lost again nor feel the hurt Squall once felt.

 

In a while Rinoa would tell the story she had for couple of nights. The promise she had made to Squall really came to exist in that dream, it only had a real meaning together at the flower-field. Squall didn't promise anything to Rinoa, she couldn't find him because they haven't promised each other to see shooting stars. Although, Squall comforted her on a way like 'It was only a dream', he kind of saw Rinoa still down about it and reasoned with himself to promise to her.

 

In the end they would find each other on the place of promise only is a different time. Through Rinoa's heart she could find him and brought him back to their time. This gives us the fact that Rinoa can control time on a certain way, something sorceresses have control about.
