[SPOILERS] Revelations from Patch 3.3

On the subject of "questions that will either never be answered or brought up again:"

Is it really healthy to be drenched with foreign dragon aether like we were? Like, essentially injected with it. Potentially permanently? Aether sickness is a thing, so we know too much foreign aether does have effects on someone's body.

Personally I'd say

Having the Echo probably does wonders for keeping such things under control. As well, us willingly taking the power might actually keep anything dangerous from happening, in comparison to the Drowned who clearly (except maybe for Captain Madison) didn't want it. As well I'm pretty sure we DID give Hresvelgr his eye back so his aether has also probably already left us.

Something like:

Well, our characters already were exposed to such aether before: in DRG story when WoL became second Azure Dragoon. So First Brood aether is not something new and entirely alien to WoL - we blasted Ascian while channeling it, too.
And Hresvelgr willingly gifted WoL with the power of his Eye, while channeling Nidhogg's aether required strong will to defend against madness and rage of it's real owner - we already freed Estinien from NIdhogg's control in lvl50 DRG quest through Echo-sort-of-thing, summoning spirit of first Azure Dragoon to guide our legs in Ultra Dragonfire Jump

And that brings another question: we tossed Niddy's Eyes into abyss (now it will stare at us for all eternity) and returned Eye to Hresvelgr. Is WoL STILL the Azure Dragoon? Or did he lost the ability to power up goony-things?

Also, in the post-MSQ quests, Middy talks to Tiamat and says about his hope that alliance between man and dragon will be the foundation of force against the coming darkness.

While I don't think what I say should be very spoilery I will put tags just not to give away context or something.

The WoL would still be the (a) Azure Dragoon. We never really channeled Nidhogg's power (which all the other ones do), but we DO channel Midgarsomr's, and that will never change since its part of our skills now. We might even get a bit of Hresvelger's aether still latched to us for new skills in the next xpac.
