Thread: Guesses as to what the new mystery MSQ trial coming in 4.3 will be? (Spoilers)

So the mirror that Tsuyu has isn't that mirror. But hey, it does have a moon motif on the back, and just because it's not that mirror doesn't mean the writers won't go there anyway.

You called it, and you were right. Congratulations.

Congratulations indeed! The guess made so much sense that it was actually anti-climactic for me when the supposedly "secret" was finally revealed.

That said, I love FFXIV's take on Tsukuyomi, especially the "rabbit ears", which are likely a reference to the mythical "moon rabbit" found in many cultures, not just Japan's.

Or if its Zenos maybe he does not like Asahi and wants to kill him while having a challenge. Thus he tells him how to summon a primal but because he does not have any kind of echo he wont make it back alive. And Zenos would have a foe that he could fight against. (And then we come and take his plan apart by killing it)

It is definitely an Ascian. I mean the Zenos we knew was just a blootdthirsty brute. Intricate plans like the one needed to summon Tsukuyumi are not his style. He even has a different voice and talks a lot like Elidibus. Besides, we have seen the true Zenos. He pulled a Sahagin preast and hijacked the Elezen dude. So we have Elidibus with Zenos' body, and the Elezen soldier with Zenos' soul. So can we have a Zenos VS Zenos fight?
