    SUBHEADING: The Syndicate; Amajina & Sons

    If there is an error here, I'm not sure which part of this it is. Something feels off, though, so I'm just going to lay it all out.

    Popokkuli, Seserukka, and Nenekko were the children of Shalala and the guildmaster of the Miners' Guild in 1.0. When the Grand Companies were introduced, Fyrgeiss was named the chief foreman of Amajina & Sons via the Syndicate chart.

    As of A Realm Reborn, the Lalafells are referred to as the children of the chief foreman or chairman depending on the reference, and the twins are credited as the "Sons" of "Amajina & Sons". The Encyclopædia Eorzea harks back to both of these sources, calling Fyrgeiss both chief foreman (in the Syndicate section) and chairman (in the Amajina & Sons) section.

    Neither the guildmaster father nor Shalala are mentioned in A Realm Reborn.
    Meanwhile, Fyrgeiss' bio mentions only that he has three Hellsguard sons with ancient Roegadyn names.

    The Encyclopædia Eorzea also mentions the "sons of Amajina & Sons" thing, but also says that Amajina was a tavern proprietress who founded Amajina & Sons 150 years ago ... So how recently was "& Sons" added? Was it really for the twins?

    One possibility - a shot from the hip guess - when ARR introduced a new MIN guildmaster, did the old guildmaster, the Lalafells' father, husband of Shalala, fade into oblivion while his children were mistakenly reassigned as children of Fyrgeiss? I harbor some suspicion that this was actually a Lalafell named Checheroya, seen but once in the quest Court in the Sands, assuring ALC guildmaster Faustigeant that "his boys" were looking into an accident at the mines.

    Something feels wrong, at any rate.
