Question for the Devs; will Heavensward include a new STARTER City-State?

[Felis]

A Grand Company in Ishgard I can see. The city was already part of the Alliance and the tradition of the Grand Company is much older than the battle at Silvertear Lake. I think the GC started at the beginning of the 6th astral era and get refounded everytime Eorzea is in big trouble.

But Ishgard as a starter city, I doubt it.
Just think about it. A player start in Ishgard, left the city as a lv1 or lv4 character to kill his first enemies, and all what he see are lv 35-40 enemies. He have to travel to the north shroud to find enemies at his level.

Also, it seem that the war against the dragons go out of control in 3.0, that the dragons start a large offensive against Ishgard and every starter player here would be dragon food ^^
