Oh ship! Mystery Trial Revealed!

[Nalien]

We have the means to kill Ascians based on the trailer, so any Ascian we go up against likely isn't going to survive. Doubt it is Lahabrea based on the fact that he shows up in the trailer for part 2 as well. Likewise all the suspense of Minfilia being in danger in part 1 is lost when I see her in part 2...

Someone already pointed out that the JP Achievement could indicate that it is a fight with Nabriales, I'd hope it's a fight with Nabriales plus Cúchulainn. Was the Primal that awoke at the end of 2.0 ever actually confirmed to be Bahamut? The guard called it an abomination which a, indicates he saw it (how'd he see Bahamut when Bahamut is in Coil?) and b, abomination? Sure sounds like Cúchulainn. I recall the Ascians saying that since Bahamut is waking, the others would soon too. Other Elder Primals? Based on the Summoner questline Cúchulainn should be one and FFXII lore puts Cúchulainn and Nabriales together (though in opposition).

I'm seriously going to be disappointed if the trial is just an Ascian... That seems so dull... Throw Zodiark-Egi in at the very least... Just a generic villain who sits there going "Hahahaha! Begone!" isn't exciting...
