Hints on Ishgard's future.

[Kyran-Varlsen]

That being said, there's still plenty of candidates for housing areas in heavensward zones other than coerthas. The Hinterlands or Sea of Clouds would be good choices imo.

Actually, a colony on a newly discovered floating island would be a very interesting idea. The Diadem shows that such places exist even without Vanu or Moogle inhabitants, and Ishgard could set one up as a housing district for adventurers for a number of reasons. First, as a new frontier, it may be best to settle this island with hardened yet wealthy adventurers who can be counted on to defend their homes in case of an attack. Second, it would reinforce Ishgard's place in the Eorzean Alliance by joining with the housing program seen in the other city-states.
