New Dungeon preview : Could Omega be the final dungeon that was showed?

[Balipu]

Omega will probably be much more important /after/ the ishgardian dragon stuffs is at least quelled. Probably ominous background information leading to 4.0 with Omega being the major key of said expansion I dunno. I doubt they would relegate Omega to... a dungeon.

I don't think Omega weapon will stay unresolved for that long. We will definitely deal with it during the 3.x cycle.

I remember someone hypothesizing that there were more "Weapons" stored in Eorzea by the ancient Allag.

That red Sphinx-Ixal-hybrid could very well be a minor "weapon"; a prototype weapon tasked in protecting that weird core?

Well the theme of the first expansion was between flying and swimming. If swimming is the next, it might have Emerald Weapon. So flying leaves us with Jade Weapon.

See, I have a completely different tack on what is concealed within that facility. I think it is one of the Seven Celestial dragons, captured and augmented by the Allagans. That the reason for the Dragon's hate/mistrust of man traces back to the Allagan, and they offer us a chance to clear humanity's name by freeing this creature.

Also a possibility

Yup, I was already considering something along those lines:

There's another possibility though and that's that the Allagans actually created the Ixal. One of Midgardsormr's seven sons has a beak and horns identical to those of the Ixal and I would not be surprised to discover that they are the results of genetic experimentation on him. The dreadknights in the binding coil could very well be the culmination of that research and the Ixal we know in Eorzea escaped the Floating Continent at some point and fled to the ground below. If this were the case then the creature bound within that sphere may well be the dragon they were created from.

I think that would make the most sense given the limited information we have at the moment. Most of this will probably be laughably incorrect after a plot twist or two though.
