SE can do whatever they want to, it just need to have a good answer.

And so far a good answer hasn't been made (one that doesn't tread all over lore and story). Why are they in the three starting cities? How do they have the Echo? Why do they have free will (if they were servants, then the technicians would have made sure to remove their free will and emotions permanently)?

Just for fun, let's say the Allagans ran into the problem of their people being "tempered" by the primals, but figured out a way to deal with it. Unfortunately, this involved sucking the victim's soul out of the body and "filtering" it through unaspected crystals, before storing it in a "core" that could be inserted into an artificial body. It could even have been a voluntary process, undergone to allow them to resist tempering while attempting to deal with the primals. The devices to accomplish this would
likely still exist, somewhere amongst the secrets of Azys Lla or another of the Allagan's research facilities still undiscovered.
I should think having your soul trapped in a crystal sphere might even allow Hydaelyn to speak with you quite easilly.

Cid and the Gang can make a virus that overwrites it? There are literally infinite possibilities why. They could even have a way to hide themselves and masquerade as people. Some could of even escaped in the world earlier. Your character is pretty .. unique in his aspect to help anyone. He does not seem like a regular person.
