    Echo is not really a gift of Hydaelyn. So not sure why that would be the argument. There are quite a few primals that behave differently, Ramuh being one of the biggest ones. Alexander was another.

    And she is really old.
    Not sure why old is an argument either Zodiark is older. The reason Zodiark even needed more power is because it was to keep to the demands of restoring the world. It's been said multiple times Primals need the aether to do so. Even Hydaelyn was born from the very same sacrifice.

    Maybe they found another way on how she can sustain herself without causing problems..because otherwise those summoners were idiots too..
    How, exactly when they also sacrificed themselves to create her? Sounds like the same methods but different "thoughtform" to be an opposite force for Zodiark. The one thing she set up for herself to keep herself in power was to create the reflections and sundering of souls. The Ascian opposition has been there since the beginning. It wasn't something suddenly bestowed because we were asked to eliminate them when we became a certain age.

    And maybe a bad example but still one for me: Minfilia got her power, she was one with her, knows about everything and was even her voice for a time and yet is still on her side.
    Being an Avatar/emissary doesn't equate to knowing everything or was bestowed that knowledge. She was a mouthpiece.

    All of this could of course be wrong and she could just be something evil..but other than one time not being 100% truthful to us, she has been shown as good.
    I don't think Hydaelyn is "evil" in the sense that she's your regular villain, but I don't think either employment of primals will be beneficial in the long run. I think if anything the WoL/D is basically the failsafe.
