Kluya cheated to redeem Cecil into being a Paladin.
Cecil felt bad for a week for killing defenseless villagers. Mopes a bit, suddenly becomes a Paladin, paragon of goodness. Say what? Kluya weakened his Enemy Without considerably; which is why the Maenad was able to reverse the process so much with just a little tweaking.
Kain got the "Redemption" that Kluya was saving for Golbez.
Note Kluya's dialogue when Kain faces his Enemy Without; he's talking about his sons. The Maenad interference on Cecil's Paladinship included a psychic assault on Kluya's essence. This confused Kluya enough to give the Redemption Test to the wrong person (it helps that Kain was possessed by Golbez when Golbez was being possesed by Zemus, so they had the same psychic "flavor."); but this wasn't what it was designed for; so the test blew up.
The villains of The After Years want to destroy the world because...
...it's been contaminated by the Lunarians. Recall that the Mysterious Girl is pretty single-minded about her mission, but makes special note of Cecil being a hybrid. She also attacks the Red Moon despite it being nowhere near the blue planet at the time. The Creator is revealed at the final battle to be an Evilutionary biologist, so this theory fits with his main motivations. As for why this is never explicitly stated: The final boss doesn't expect this part of it's motives to be understood, so it doesn't bother to tell the party.
The Summoner Bloodline of Mist has Maenad ancestry.
Everyone and their brother seems compelled to point out how the Mysterious Girl looks like Rydia. Every single Maenad has Summoning powers. It was noted by Mist townspeople that the Summoner bloodline was genetic; this isn't just something that can be taught; so Rydia was the Last of Her Kind. Sometime in the past; there was a Maenad who went rogue and fell in love with a human living in Mist.
Golbez isn't going to take the Red Moon out into deep space again, even if other hibernating Lunarians survived
The Blue Moon kind of just disintigrated. If he takes the Red Moon out, it'll leave the planet below without any tides, which would cause massive ecological disaster, as well as some potential geological problems.
All of the worlds from Final Fantasies I, II, II, V, and VI have been destroyed by the Creator
This is why you fight monsters from them. Those enemies are all that's left of our beloved heroes and storylines - if The Creator has been creating and destroying worlds all this time, and the enemies fought near the finale are remnants of those destroyed worlds, and said enemies are from Final Fantasies I, II, III, V, and VI... then I'm sorry, but all the other games had apocalypses just after the end credits.
The Creator from this game is the same as The Maker from Final Fantasy XIII
The reason he's missing in action there is because Cecil and friends killed him here. Nice Job Breaking It, Hero.
