Mechanically, the support aspect of a third fairy could just be distributed across the existing two instead. Personally instead of a third fairy, I'd like the encouragement to switch between them mid-battle without MP cost. Was hoping Dissipation would be this, but oh well.

As for limiting the reliance on the fairy when not healing, a simple solution could be to make Cleric Stance nerf the potency of Embrace and other pet skills.
Who said a new fairy would have to have something to do with the old one. Basically the same class can summon carbuncle(s), egis and a fairy. Heck if it's not a fairy, just take Alphinaud's red carbuncle... Lore can always be written accordingly, if they would want to do so.
