The WOL and Mass Murder

[Delily]

I'm surprised no one has mentioned it yet, everyone forgets we are the WoL like those that came before us. They remember the acts, but not the face behind it and maybe only those with the echo remember (ie Scions). Also a possession like what happened with Thancred who also has the echo would be another way to do it. It has been a while since we saw any of those as I don't remember any in SB yet.

That's more a story issue with us being both the Hero and an adventurer. If you do the various job quests, it's rarely acknowledged you are the WoL. However, most citizens of Eorzea know your face and name.

I could also see another way, especially with 4.2 and a way to bring us into 5.0 in Garlean lands as being turned over by leadership of Eorzea for peace with the Garlean Empire. I'd love to explore Garlean lands in the future behind enemy lines and that would be one way to do it and have the WoL start out there.

Peace? Why would that bring peace? The city state leaders, as incompetent as they are, know enough to know that any offer of peace from Garlemand in exchange for our head is a trap.

Exactly. Lets give Garlemald one of our best warrior that saved Eorzea countless of times so that Garlemald can break their deal and attack the country that now has no WoL to defend them. And on top of that this could change the view of the WoL and make them hate Eorzea.

I could only accept such a plot if they dont want to truly give us over but plan to use us on the other side in some way (and the WoL should know the plan).
