    You say that as though Yda isn't very obviously Ala Mhigan herself.

    Cause she isn't. She might be a monk, but all Scions are from Sharlayan. That's like the first thing we learn about them. Or did you fail to notice that she has blond hair, white skin and blue eyes, while Ala Mhigans are the exact opposite?

    I could also tell you my name is Clancey and I once caught a 14 pound swordfish in the Bering Strait but that doesn't make it true. Yda is the only Scion that consistently has no fucking clue what's going on and needs Papalymo around so that she doesn't bunk up the Scion's operations too badly. She's also really good at not being caught, and you know who benefits greatly from being really good at not being caught? Fists of Rhalgr.

    Also she seems really invested in the Ala Mhigan resistance. In the short cutscenes where she interacts with Papalymo in an area that is quite obviously a resistance staging area, she gets all worked up about Papalymo saying they need to take things slowly.

    Also x2 god forbid a region that is very firmly connected to the rest of Eorzea have some racial and physiological diversity.

    Here, here. Chick is obviously the Garlean sister of that big Garlean working in Ishgard.

    Actually it is very likely she is Ala Mhigan. Not all of the Scions are from Sharlayan. They are just Sharlayan trained. Thancred for example is from Limsa Lominsa and used to run with the Rogues Guild. She doesn't look like a traditional Ala Mhigan but their might be a reason for that. Do remember, Minfilia was Ala Mhigan too.

    Still from our experiences, Ala Mhigans are prone to being passionate, hot headed and rather dumb. Yda is dopey most of the time but she isn't usually particularly hot headed. I think that whatever her background is exactly it is very much connected to the fall of Ala Mhigo.
