    I'd have to check my lorebook again, but didn't that thing go boom with Ultima Weapon? If they were going to use it again I figured that they might have shown a mysterious hand picking it up or something?

    To be fair, we all were led to believe Gaius also was caught up in Ultima's boom. Really, anything's possible.

    I think the best way they can resolve Gaius' survival is by never explaining in details how he did survive. Any explanation would feel corny or unnecessary at this point.

    Ouch. Got me there. >_<'

    I don't think they're going to bother with the Heart of Sabik again though. It was more or less only used in 2.0 to have a through-line with the original plot.

    I'm of mixed minds here...you have a point since it would be corny, but they probably should have something for us poor lore folk...

    I too have mixed feelings about it. If Oda-san manages to write something cool around it, I'd love it to death. Who knows we'll see that in Shadowbringer short stories! I think those would be a better format for this kind of side information that wouldn't be relevant being revealed out of nowhere in the MSQ. But I'm also a sucker for storytelling that leaves open spaces for imagination and creation of myths and legends and the XIV team have always been great about this. So I wouldn't mind if they never explained it.
