I wonder if Alisae will take Minfilia's place as the Antecedent? Many have noted that the absence of Minfialia have made the Scions less cohesive. Maybe Alisae will be the one to set them forth in actively fighting the Asciens.

Just like Alphinaud has the idealistic side of Louisoix that wish to bring all together, maybe Alisae will have her grandfathers arcane knowledge that'll help out?
