Will we get to see Edda again?

1. Given that the primary Garlean invading force in Eorzea is broken and the local warlords (Gaius Van Baelsar and Nael Van Darnus) have been dispatched, what is preventing the retaking of Ala Mhigo? As I understand it, even the power structure in greater Garlemald is in turmoil preventing any expansion of the invasion effort in Eorzea.

2. Since Raubhan is a native of Ala Mhigo, why is he so clearly distant to the plight of the Ala Mhigan refugees. I would assume that their cause would draw more direct support from him.

3. All of the recent ilvl 100 weapons acquired from the exchange of unidentified Allagan tomestones appear to bear the mark of Rhalgr, the Destroyer. Does this imply that these weapons of of Ala Mhigan origin since Rhalgr is their patron deity?

Because you actualy have me wondering about this. I'll tell you this. the rules of the thread limit the questions to one per post (but you can make multiple posts)

We were told back during Beta or Launch (can't remember) that we would be given some lore and story about how and why minions exist in Eorzea, where they come from, and who was behind their mass existence. Are we still going to get this story at some point? And when is that?

I was wondering if you will make the AI on the Beast tribes smarter, in the Beta 3.0 the AI was, in my opinion, was just right. They would link if they saw their compatriot attacked...but now they are just stupid and let their friend/comrade get attacked. I know you made the game SUPER easy to cater to people, but seriously to easy makes them less likely to stay once they get to a point.

Echoing Axioxaviar's question to confirm to the one-question-per-post rule because I am also really interested in this;

Is any White Mage able to commune with the elementals, even the player character?

What would a Sea Wolf mother name her child if she didn't know who the father was?

[melonpandaa]

Will there any be any sort of neutral territory?? Where Garleans and Eorzeans exist mainly probably for trading or possibly citizens fed up with the war?? I know this is implemented in other mmos and thought it would be interesting.

My husband brought up an interesting theory this weekend. He seems to be under the impression that the Echo is actually more insidious than it seems on the surface.

The Sahagin priest who summoned Leviathan was able to take over the body of a nearby NPC and transform it into his own using the power of the Echo, which supposedly grants immortality.

Does this mean that when our characters die, we are in fact using the power of the Echo to take over the bodies of nameless NPCs and transform them into our own?

[Morningstar1337]

If the Echo is compared to Tempering and is connected with the Ascians it does seems suspect. Which is why in light of the above post I'll ask this; Is the Echo a form of Tempering?

I apologize if this has already been brought up
