I find this whole new Auspices introduction very interesting and fascinating. I hope they'll delve more on them in the future, and that it's not just some spice thrown there then forgot. I haven't yet fought Byakko so not sure if there is more I'm still missing, after that?

I remember this because it stroke me: Arenvald, talking about Fordola (and all the artificially infused with echo) in the previous patch, says something like "They aren't born with it, like we are".
