Crystal Tower theories

I think I'm in the weird camp where I think the hooded figure is indeed him, but the voice might not be.

Me as well, actually.

There are three mystery elements: the Calling voice, the trailer voiceover, and the hooded figure. While it’s a reasonable guess to link them, they could be separate.

Mostly, though, I want this minion that was teased on the community stream:

I still think that looks like fanart. They look like the sort of button-badges that fanartists might sell at conventions.

If they’re showing off new official minions, why put the picture on something like that rather than a complete image on a normal sheet of paper?

I ultimately think the trailer voice is kind of inconsequential just because they use multiple characters' voices for it depending on the language. The Japanese version is Alphinaud, the French and German versions are Zenos(if I'm wrong about that, please correct me), though as I've listened to the trailer more, I'm half convinced that the English voice is also Alphinaud.

I wonder also how much isn't being revealed yet due to it being revealed in 4.56 and not in Shadowbringers such as who the voice is. We still know we go to a place with 13 different circles from the 4.5 trailer, which looking at it again looks like it could in fact be Allagan and in the Crystal Tower, but it could also be another Allagan facility.

If the Allagan's though are involved, I'd love to see the Sons of Saint Coinach involved again and they have a camp right outside both The Rising Stone and The Crystal Tower. They also teased the weapons mentioned in Eureka at the end of The Crystal Tower when Nero threw his technology detector away. I thought it was simply acknowledging old content like what a lot in Eureka was doing, but this discussion makes me wonder. After all "The Black Rose" was first a side quest in 4.0 and is now key to the story.

Ill call it now, down there we will face the Diamond weapon and the others, lol.
