The echo is most definitely not from Hydaelin. Not only do Ascians use it, but we retained the echo even after the blessing of hydaelin was taken from us by Midgarsormr.

The echo might actually come from the speaker who is above Hydaelin and Zodiark. Maybe we really are in the rift and it is shinryu.
