Live 7th Umbral Era world changes of 1.23 (a surprise inside)
So as we all know, the world of Hydaelyn is in grave danger from Dalamud's impact. Could there be more than just a gaint impact? Maybe there's something right under our nose.
South of Castrum Novum, (6, 15)

You are probably wondering what is that on the aetheryte?
It's the symbol of one of the 12 mythos: Thaliak.

"Thaliak, ruler of rivers and wisdom and god of knowledge, is the guardian deity of Sharlayan. He commands the element of Water and is associated with the third moon of the Eorzean calendar. Thaliak is the father of Llymlaen, and the teacher of Byregot. He is most often depicted as a reserved scholar holding an ashen staff. His symbol is the scroll."
A change you may not see from the images, is that aetheryte is glowing RED and is making a violent humming noise when you walk towards it.
So yes, Eorzea is changing now as you read this post. Could there be others like this tucked away in the game? Possible, the other 11 mythos could be hidden away right now.
So let's try to find more of these hidden changes (if more exist) and keep track of them between the letter patches.

Note: Sorry I couldn't get every Mythos symbol in this post. There's a image/media embed limit of 21. So I've removed the ones where you can clearly see the symbol in each pic.
