    They've put the rule previews online already. Looks like Seal Rock has now some Giant Allagan Tomestones, have they always been there? We'll also fight against each other to grab info from them. It's a capture the flag / sieze. While I'm a bit tired of allagans on side quests, this will mostly give us more lore about 1.0 and maybe some more about how people were dealing with the calamity over the past five years. Will this frontline also have connections with the Main Scenario like Cartenau had? Even if mininal, but I honestly don't expect much lore from it. I hope SE surprises me.

    It looks like they're emerging from the ground, so maybe the island's on top of some giant Allagan structure? Would possibly explain its supposed movement.

    Wonder if the tomestones emerged as part of the signal that brought Azys Lla down.

    In before Seal Rock is another Allagan UFO (Or I guess USO since it's in the ocean)

    Disappointed with the lack of quest involved to unlock Frontlines (Seize) and looking up the duty on the Eorzea DB to sate my curiosity proved this to pretty much be a fact

    Legend has it that Llymlaen sealed a giant serpent She Herself created within Swallowtail Roam, an island said to drift about the sea so that those with evil intentions might never find it. When Seal Rock was first discovered, many believed it to be the selfsame island─but its true nature remained unknown until the Calamity laid her secrets bare. Upon their return to the island following the fall of Dalamud, Allied forces discovered Allagan tomeliths containing a wealth of knowledge. They concluded that the entire island was in fact an Allagan construct─a proving ground for Omega and other technology they developed to combat the primal threat. As was the case in Carteneau, control of the island and its resources remain disputed, and peaceful negotiations have failed to achieve a resolution. And so, once more, they would settle the matter on the battlefield.
    tldr; Seal Rock was the thing everyone thought was Swallowtail Roam but SURPRISE ALLAGAN CONSTRUCT

    So basically Seal Rock was the Allagan Locke's Lie :P
