Link gave up his childhood to save Hyrule.
You gave up your childhood to make Link save Hyrule.

Cosmic Vacuum Cleaner.

Not even kidding. In both FF5 and FF9, that's basically what it does. (More graphically in 9.)

(although Black Mages are also constructed machines of sorts, so the line between 'machine' and 'alive' is blurred somewhat in the FFIX universe)

Constructed, yes; machines, no. I see them as more akin to golems. Magically-created entities. Golem, homunculus, simulacrum, call it what you will.

Even before XIII(lulz Transformers), some of the summons either looked like machines or might be.

Alexander from VI to VIII looked like a giant mech.

Katawa Shoujo: The visual novel that defies and kicks logic to the curb.
Official contender to fight for Lilly as waifu.

Mechacastle is awesome, and don't you forget it.

Golem (6) looked more mechanical than a golem should.

Anyway, we must remember that there has been machinery in this series since its outset. Heck, FF1 even had robots.

In FFXI he's a devourer of time. He almost winds up eating the timeline that you live in and is a major part of Wings of the Goddess's events. Mini Atomos' (Known as Cavernous Maws) are also gates that let you travel thru time and across dimensions.

Lol. Reminds me of Chrono Cross.
