The Great Betrayal!

[SpookyGhost]

The guy on the left looks like Ser Aymeric. Both are Elezen. Both are wearing that fancy blue armor.

Aymeric has incredibly pointy ears.



I'm also fairly certain that's a Hyur.

This sounds EXTREMELY far'fetched, but what if us dying, converting into Aether and returning again, grants us a greater power or a completely new combat mechanic we can use in 3.0?

If this were the case then it would be quite strange to have us getting hit by the beam of light now.

The beam going through the WAR's chest could be the Blade of Aether/Light used to stop Lahabrea and ~you know who~. It could also be something else entirely. The trailer is kind of shrouded in mystery and confusion, it's really hard to make heads or tails of what's really happening. Speculation is fun tho.
