Questions for Fernehalwes- E3 2014 edition

[Rocl]

The recent interview with Ferne seems to go back on the "beast tribe" notion of summoning Shiva (though this could be all a clever voidsent ruse to make us speculate and contrive more ludicrous theories). Another important similarity between Shiva and Halone is that more specifically that "goddess of glaciers," Halone is one of the two goddesses of Ice in the Twelve pantheon. (The other being Menphina)

Interestingly Rhalgr's description is also pretty close to Ramuh's. God of thunder, mage wielding a bronzen staff (and oddly enough the father of Halone).

Speaking of which Halone and Nophica are bitter rivals, you'd expect Gridania and Ishgardians to be more at odds with each other than they are!

Honestly if it's not gonna be a brand new/unexpected beast tribe I could see some Ishgardians going like AWH YEAH WE GONNA SUMMON HALONE TO FIGHT THE DRAGONS-- oh woops it's Shiva.


And completely unrelated to Shiva speculation and very minor T9 spoilers but related to Moose's last post: the Ghosts of Meracydia (wyvern adds) in the fight have an ability called "Neurolink Burst" which goes off when they die. However, there is no visible neurolink attached to them. So while Twintania's neurolink is super obvious, it's possible not all neurolinks are so blatant.
