    Guessing they are involved in the whole "white wolf" operation Kann-e-Senna covertly name dropped to the other GC leaders that one time. We'll probably see them make an appearance when we start focusing on the Garleans in the Shroud and heading east.

    This smells of Ala Mhigo. Not game wise, but the writers are still fleshing it out for these characters.

    He doesn't mind us conducting trials so close to his bazaar, so long as he's properly compensated... Yes, Portus, we pay him in sorcery-blasted bird flesh. - Cocobygo

    I don't know if anyone pointed it already but he has an entry in the upcoming Lorebook, so he's not forgotten. I can't find the pic right now since I'm at work, but I'm 100% sure about it and it's an updated 2.0 model.

    EDIT:

    There he is, under Kan-E-Senna!

    Not sure if it connected,but the Adders have a "white wolf"division. Although they seem to be made up of novice/new recruits

    Don't forget the gates leading out of the city are named for divisions of the Twin Adders; Blue Badger Gate leads to the Jadeite Thick (Central Shroud), White Wolf Gate leads to Sorrel Haven (also C Shroud), Yellow Serpent Gate exits to Treespeak (North Shroud), and while we can't access it, Black Boar Gate, by the Lancer Guild, leads (presumably) to the East Shroud somewhere (assuming this because the guard tells you to take the ferry there instead. Probably will be an avenue to get to Ala Mihgo soon). Red Otter Gate isn't in any part of Gridania we can access right now; I assume its in the inaccessible (to quote the guard telling you off) "distinguished Gridanians" district

    That would be a retcon though, as the gate naming theme in Gridania preceded the introduction of the Grand Companies into the game in 1.0 (the gate names were there from the very beginning under the Tanaka-era development team and original storyline, sans the Yellow Serpent gate which didn't actually exist, where as the Grand Companies including the Order of the Twin Adder were only added after Yoshi took over and re-purposed the storyline into the 7th Umbral Era story). Originally, it seemed the gates were actually thinly veiled references to the traditional FF mage Jobs (which also did not exist at the very beginning - Jobs were only added into 1.0 with the 1.22 patch): Black Boar Gate=Black Mage, White Wolf Gate=White Mage, Red Otter Gate=Red Mage and Blue Badger Gate=Blue Mage.

    As mentioned before the Yellow Serpent Gate did not exist in 1.0, the physical location where it's now located was actually the zone line to the Market Ward (where retainers had bazaars) and the entrance to the Ashcrown Consortium's headquarters and did not lead out of the city into the North Shroud. Either way, the fact that the gates' names now do line up with the divisions of the Twin Adder is more coincidence to me at least and probably a retcon at the most. So don't think too much into it.

    That makes the absence of these high ranking Serpent soldiers even stranger. You'd think one would at least get a name drop, especially now seeing that Kann-e is now making pilgrimages to the Churning Mists Moogles for good will relations, and complete command would be given to him while she was gone.

    Yet, nothing.

    Checking back in from the Encyclopædia Eorzea!

    Swethryk (42) is still Grand Serpent Marshal; he was once captain of the Wood Wailers, but lost an eye in battle with the Ixal after taking a blow meant for one of his men. He worked with the Lancers' Guild for a while after that, but was tapped for leadership when the Grand Companies were reformed due to his experience in the ways of war.

    His younger sister Swethyna (37) took over his position in the Wailers 15 years ago and constantly strives to push her limits. She and O-App-Pesi are the same age and remain good friends.

    I don't remember seeing a Swethyna during the Lancer quests. (though it has been two years)
