Insane Theory: Are YOU a Primal?

[Enkidoh]

I don't know if this really applies to this, but I was wondering why we can be Raised/Resurrected/Ascended, and Eorzeans like Hauchy and Moen can't? Not that I think we are primals, but we are definitely different. Has this been discussed before? Is it just simple "Look the other way" mechanics?

Because it's not actually true death that occurs when your character's HP reaches zero, it's literally unconsciousness (thus spell titles like 'Raise' and 'Resurrection' are a misnomer, they're more akin to resuscitation techniques).

Besides, it's not like there hasn't been a case of a story NPC being killed off for real in a FF game before as part of the story, and in-game abilities/spells/items being unable to prevent it. /jk It's one of those times where gameplay mechanics are ignored for the sake of storyline - don't think about it too much.
