lalafell? Roegadyn? Elezen? .....highlander?

Quest text related to the 50-60 SCH quest, Sil'dih and Qarn seem to hint that Mhachi were plainsfolk lalafell, highland and midland hyur. Question is, how did the lalas get up that high if both clans originate and prefer warm, southern climates?

Wasn't Qarn founded after the flood though? This would have been well after or during the first Hyur Migration going by what Rocl Mentioned.

We're actually not sure how old Qarn is, just that it's pretty old. It was occupied in the early days of the Sixth Astral Era by the Belah'dians (who were the proto-Ul'dah/Sil'dih civilizations), but the ruins are much older. I wouldn't be surprised if Qarn ends up being either Mhachi or Allagan, tbh. Either way, it's old.

(Mhachi? Not a lot of good reasoning. Soulkin, ashkin; architecture seems similar to Yafaem, I guess. Allagan? Not a lot of good reasoning. Similar architecture to the Carteneau Flats ruins, we know Southern Thanalan already has Allagan ruins in the Sagolii desert)
