In the quest "One Way or Another"
Dreamingway says about Allagan Heimdall-Class vessel "Heimdall's Last Sight" on the moon, that:
"According to our records, this vessel landed on the moon about FIVE YEARS AGO. Its been a wonderful source of spare parts."
If im not mistaken: The Allagan Empire existed in Third Astral Era, means around 5000 years ago.
I took that to mean that when Bahamut escaped Dalamud 5 years ago, that a fragment of it shot in the direction of the moon and landed on it.
Right, the vessel was indeed an Allagan vessel constructed and launched into space back in the Third Astral Era, but it then spent the next several millenia orbiting Hydaelyn close to Dalamud, until it was destroyed by the Red Moon shooting it down during the lead up to the Seventh Calamity (basically, Heimdall's onboard AI systems detected Dalamud was activating and so attempted to stop it as that was what it had been programmed to do when the Allag launched it - it was meant to be a kind of watchman making sure no one or nothing interfered with Dalamud's systems - thus resulting in Dalamud firing on it and causing the ship to crash on the Silver Moon, where it now lays).
So the 'five years ago' is accurate, as that is indeed when it crashed on the moon, not how old it actually is. So that is working as intended (the Sightseeing Log entry for the ship - 'Heimdall's Last Sight' - actually explains this in detail.).
Oh, i see! Thanks for explanation.
