    Odin, Urth, and (Presumably Wiyu) are not dead, they are somehow connected to the Warring Triad which were locked inside the ship near Helix.

    The thing locked inside Urth's Font was just the sword.

    This is an interesting set of facts, but it brings even more questions. For one, why was Urth against the allagans? Perhaps it has something to do with the warring Triad. Given that the Allagans had the Warring Triad sealed, why would it be an issue? The only thing I can think of is that either Urth or the Allagans wanted to exploit the Triad in some way, and the other party was against it.

    Further, who was Odin to her (most likely lover, given his rush to save her life, but it's an interesting history)?

    Wiyu's place in this is the only one that is clear cut. Defending home and country makes enough sense. Though, if there is a link to the Warring Triad, then it is interesting that there are three main characters being dealt with here. If they represent or are thematically linked the the warring triad then there may be some hints in those links. For example, the warring triad is (rather simplistically) represented by 2 demons and 1 angel (even in FFXIV, with the statues) who are all equally at war with one another. If that's true, than the balance is somewhat off as it would have originally been 2 versus 1 (Odin and Urth on the same side). However, after Odin fell to Zantetsuken's influence, it may be closer to 1.v1.v1. Which leaves only one question. Which characters matches to which deities? Who are the demons and who is the angel?
