need to find source of information

okay so I know that during either a live letter, interview or one of the fan festivals information about the Au Ra was revealed and they specifically said the Au Ra(they might not yet have revealed the name of the race) would be of no relation to the Dravanian Horde.

does anyone remember this besides me? I know I did not imagine it. can anyone remember when they gave this information? I could have sworn during the Las Vegas or London Fan Festical they they gave some clues about the "new race" that Yugiri is part of which is when they said this.

Now, the Au Ra are from another continent and the race is older than Ishgard (Ishgard is only around 1500 years old). And yes, Yugiri is an Au Ra.

All I remember them saying is that we'd get some character customization features to make the Au Ra more "demon-like" or "succubi-like", which HINTS at a voidsent nature rather than reptilian. but nothing official beyond that.

the issue is that it was stated either by Yoshi-P himself or one of the other devs during a live event that the Au Ra have no relation to the Dravanian Horde. I am out to figure out which event then I can try to find the source itself. or someone else could provide the source. I'm not that picky.
even better would be if one of the community team were to confirm or deny(this would make me a bit sad but I'll admit I'm wrong and move on if they do deny it) it.

I never heard/read anything of the sort myself.
