>Since the majority of their memories are gone I'd say they didn't really grow up together.

>I'd say

And you'd say wrong. Because you don't remember something doesn't mean it didn't happen. And like I said, bonds are more than just memories. There is a subconscious link involved with friendship and love, or even something that has nothing to do with any level of consciousness. That is I think one of the things the game tries to convey under the giant "fate" theme, these people don't remember they grew up together, and yet here they are, still friends more than a decade later.

The way Sorceresses get their powers is irrelevant to that matter though. However, it's true that this, as well as Ellone's powers, are unexplained plot points. We just have to take it for granted as "magic" just like anything magical in any other FF game.

I for one don't believe the castle is near the Orphanage. The reason they start at disc4 at the orphanage is because they needed to find a place they were all bonded with to go through time compression.

As for the castle, it is very hard to get a sense of scale of it, but one thing that's for sure if you look at the different ways those giant links (which connected the castle to the earth) are pictured, they have different placement and scale depending.

When you walk on them those links are FUCK HUGE, and you don't see the ones next to the one you're walking on. Also when you get to the the end, you don't see other links either.

I believe the walk on the link is supposed to be super long and we don't see all it in game because it's pointless.

Also, that giant link opens teleportation doors to iirc about 6-8 different places on the world.
I think that teleporter doors on the link are supposed to represent different links you could walk on to go back to earth.
