This game gets confusing! D:

I figure that Cid, Biggs and Wedge knew each other Pre-Calamity. When you meet Biggs and Wedge while Cid is amnesiac they know of and have worked closely together and such. I guess what happened is that Cid and a few others (namely Biggs and Wedge) have worked together but never had a company (the Ironworks). Once they arrived, they decided to make one.

I have had someone ask me if Elezen are the oldest inhabitants of Eorzea. I mentioned that I don't believe it is the case but others said "Yeah, of the playable races." However "The Elezen once claimed sole dominion over Eorzea, their presence predating that of the other races, and, as such, developed a heightened sense of honor and pride." comes from the ARR Races section. Is this a statement that is continued by the Elezen or is a word of god statement?
