Yeah, I wish they'd kept this part of the story until a bit closer to Heavensward to be honest.

I guess I can take my shrine down now...
My shrine is staying up.

I dunno... Lolorito waltzing in, explaining the whole story, clearing WoL's name, and reinstating Raubahn to his old position without even a token trial for the MURDER of a syndicate member, all seems a little too pat. It pretty much makes a mockery of the drama at the end of ARR, in my opinion.
I'm holding out hope that there's SOMETHING interesting SE's keeping from us... Maybe the current Nanamo is an imposter of some kind?
I'd be really depressed if the whole ending of ARR was created purely as a shock tactic to get folks hyped for Heavensward, only to turn around and say, "Okay, now that we've got you hooked, back to the status-quo we go!"
I don't hate Nanamo - really I don't! - but I was so hoping for a bit of meaningful storytelling, with lasting consequences...
