Sin Eaters

[zuzu-bq]

So where did the Amdapori Sin Eater images come from, if indeed that is what they are? Has the First been falling for 2,000 straight years? Did another dimension once come back from the brink and some sin eaters escaped? Did another dimension once fall and some sin eaters crossed over during that time? Did Amdapori inherit stories from the Allagans who somehow had knowledge of the sin eaters? Is this tied to the existence of the Crystal Tower? Are time shenanigans involved?

The Crystal person at the Tower was confirmed to be the trailer's narrator in Naoki's Room, the japanese voice actor hasn't worked in the game before. He says "how many years have come and gone". This would indicate he been waiting us for quite a while. The last dev pannel also showed a slide saying the Crystal Tower been there for years and the city was constructed around there. Not only that but appearently the First have legends of those who will bring back the night, legends take years to form so I doubt Arbert have left the First any recently, he told us his own tales of victories against the Dark. It totally sound like time shennanigans are involved. But we won't know the hows and whys for a while now.

As for Amdapor... Whew~ The War of Magi was truly something else. If Sin Eaters are directly linked to the flood of light the way they seem to be, it was basically a very twisted conflict of Light and Dark as Amdapor went into worshipping Sin Eaters carving golems in their image, as Mhach summoned Voidsents to inhabit their own bodies. But also does raise some questions! I'm very excited and hyped to see where this will all bring us hope the map splits of the First's not Eorzea and the new Ilsbard maps don't feel as disconnected as Stormblood stories.

But, if the Voidsent are the Thirteenth's residents becoming twisted... What are the Sin Eaters, where do they come from?! Doubt we will know that any soon.
