First details for second Final Fantasy XIV expansion already decided

Also dunno if anyone notice, the only way to go to Ilsabard by foot ( the continent where the capital of the Garlean Empire and Aldenard, aka Eorzea, 's neighborhood ) is going through Ala Mhigo.

Which is why I suspect Garlean Empire as 5.0 if Ala Mhigo is 4.0.

The only thing standing in the way into the Ilsabard is the Garlean Occupied Ala Mhigo.

We also have the Castrum fortress that may allow adventurers into Ala Mhigo region under Gridania's control due to the events of 2.0 when a army of Gridanians and Sylph took it over during the miltary operation.

I think that castrum is still operational, with forces inside. But their main objective is to prevent to anyone to go through it. What Grindania did on 2.0 is to prevent Castrum Meridiatum get support from that castrum, but that doesnt mean they took control over it.

I suspect this castrum will be our new steps of faith >_<

I have a feeling that there'll be a massive dragon invasion like we see in the CGI trailer lead by Nidhogg and maybe a final 8 man battle against him like we see in the Benchmark that will happen some time in 3.XX

But yeah, they need to tie in Omega Weapon (unless he somehow become involved in PvP). But yes the steps into Ala Mhigo is there: Growing unrest in the refugees, Ilberd. There's also the fact that Gaius and co are no more, so there should not be a Legatus ruling over it which should help the resistance fighters plan abit better. After a War of Succession, a new Emperor is seated, but I have to say Garlemald is weaker than it's been for a while.

What they do in Azys Lla should make or break them

Hopefully, it includes Dynamis and Nyzul Isle.

Don't give them any ideas, Dynamis is just a lazy copy/paste of city zones.
