Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XXVII Lore Discussion

Theory: Minfilia is going to be related to the ' regeneration' of the Mothercrystal. Or even become the new Mothercrystal herself.

I'm really hoping we see Alisaie make her triumphant return in this patch. The stinger at the end of 3.1 was, GAH! I want to see her again so badly! Though the focus is on Minfilia, Thancred reappeared in the same patch Krile was introduced. So its not impossible for Alisaie to reappear in the same patch that Minfilia re-enter the plot.

One of the mentions regarded change was "The path the Scions will follow." I wonder what THAT means, hm...

Warring Triad! I'm willing to bet five bucks that the Empire is gonna be involved in that mess somehow.

Overall, its looking like we can *finally* expect some lore and answers regarding Hydaelyn. Its about friggin' time. Of course, they are probably going to be earthshaking revelations...Which fits nicely with the patch title "Gears of Change."

Hah!

Its hard to explain, but I just don't see Minfilia making a permanent return to the Scions, at least not in the full leader capacity she was before. Might have something to do with the fact Unukalhai is stationed in the Rising Stones solar, and he gives out the EX primal quests. Of course, it could also be a Hard primals situation again, where we'll eventually be required to clear the EX trials in order to continue. Either way, I think Alphinaud is going to serve as the informal leader for the long term. I say informal because the Scions now feel less 'formal organization' and more 'group of True Companions.' This is a GOOD change mind
