I KNOW THERE IS AN EDIT INCOMING. I LOVE YOU ANONYMOOSE.

Something else I was thinking of, which is just "Lalafells and the Garlean Empire"
I've also decided to delve into the other topics I've pondered about. Lalafell in the Garlean empire.
I've seen one conscripted Lalafell here.

But where do you think they were conscripted from? Lalafell primarily came from the Southern Seas. Do you think they were taken when Ala Mhigo did? From Othard's imperialization?

On similar note, Wedge and Garlond Ironworks.
Is Wedge "Garlean" by virtue of his working for Cid and having him as his mentor? Did Ironworks exist before Cid left Garlemald and went to Eorzea so he could have brought Wedge along from that time? Or is it more likely that Wedge joined under the Ironworks once Cid came to Eorzea?
