Six Year? A progression of events query

[Anonymoose]

But time has to have passed due to one place. Revenants toll.

It did pass, but did it move? There are no progression flags whereby the Toll will change appearances based on current scenario completion (as the Waking Sands and Rising Stones do). I've been thinking of it as a live event - kind of like how the Ninja safehouse appeared and yet their story is specifically designed to work even for new players. Those who join the game in 3.0 will come to Eorzea just as the Warriors of Light return from the rift and the Black Wolf invades... and Revenant's Toll will already be mostly complete. Sure, there will still be much work for the Domans to do, but (unless Square Enix decides to implement said progression flags), they will never know dirt streets and Rowena's modest tent.

I think they were referencing the Rising.

You know, I didn't even think of that. I went back and checked and the Rising doesn't even mention time at all, it just mentions remembrance of the Calamity and hints about Shiva. I think the Rising was meant to celebrate the real world passage of a year since servers went live the same way All Saints' Wake celebrates real world Halloween (whereby you can have 3 Halloweens and no movement of time to reflect its passage).

I'd mostly just warn that it might be hasty for anybody to assume different until Fernehalwes updates his sentiments on the matter.
