It's interesting where this all puts the Divine Chronicles of Mezaya Thousand Eyes, who is now increasingly looking like the Nostradamus of Eorzea - occasionally right, but mostly by virtue of coincidence and confirmation bias?

I'm also curious how far the Sunder extends, mostly because Midgardsormr seems to come from beyond it. It goes pretty far out, given Zodiark's time-out in the moon, but how much further? We know the Allagans had a space program, did their interstellar probes ever start sending back some really weird readings?
