I understand primals not being truly beatable, which is why I guess I want to understand what the Garleans thought process was in regards to them. Surely they would have experienced this in Othard, yet overcame it. Was this through genocide of the Othardian beast tribes? If you remove the tribes, there is no one to summon the primal. At what point to they start listening to the advice of Ascians?

Yes, it is vague in a way, yet particular in mentioning little points which really makes me anxious with anticipation. This is why I like focusing on learning about the other continents - that makes me satisfied! This history and lore stuff just makes me frustrated! xD
