China is getting wings

[Kyuuen]

So while we're on the topic of why lore is still an invalid reason. How about using Primal Summons to defeat our enemies? Last I checked someone dismissed that idea even though we know Lady Iceheart defended us turning into Shiva. So why is this idea any different than Garlean Gunblades?

Do you even pay attention to the story at all? Because I'm really getting the feeling you don't. The reason we don't summon the actual Primals is due in part to two reasons:

1. Typically the summoning requires a lot of crystals, more than what can be carried by a single person
2. Primals have a real nasty habit of sucking aether up where ever they're summoned.. which I hope you understand, is bad for Hydaeln (the planet)

And I already know what you're thinking. "But Iceheart summoned forth Shiva without crystals when defending us!" You're right. She did, and I don't have an absolute answer to that. Perhaps it's just a plot hole or perhaps it's a plot device we'll figure out later further in the story. I can only make assumptions on how she did it, for instance perhaps to summon Shiva she gave herself to her (enthrallment) meaning she may not have came back to us even had she not been killed.

Or perhaps I'm missing something altogether, in which case anyone feel free to correct me.

And the difference between that and Garlean gunblades... seriously? One is a godly supreme detriment to the planet, the other is crafted by mortals, wielded by mortals, therefore dropped if you killed said mortals, and if dropped by slain mortal then it can be picked up; presumably, by any other mortal.. or immortal for that matter and be wielded by them. You're trying to compare apples to elephants... knock it off.
