Something tells me that photo with Von Leon could've been taken when the King was still sane. I mean, if it were his lion form, then yeah, we'd have something to worry about. But here, we have humanoid Von Leon, and Isa might've been snapping that photo or something. I think that Spieg's as old as the Black Mage, if not a bit younger. I'd place him around the same age as.... Nineheart or Athena, MAYBE Jin (Dark Lord), but he's younger than Black Mage for sure if Alcaster and Grendel are old coots.
The Horntail photo makes zero sense, but my theory on it is that he made a bet, lost, and as punishment had to try and get near Horntail without being eaten. Based on his still being alive, he probably made it out in one piece.
As for Zakum, this is easily explainable. Zakum is.... an Omni-Golem, shall we say, in that he's a stone construct with a spirit forced inside him. In other words, think of it like the stonework acting as a vessel for Zakum's spirit. In this case, ol' Spieg's alibi checks out, if my theory holds true.
