I could be wrong but I thought Archaeotania had been in legends for quite some time in Ondo Tradition and not just a recent occurrence? If I am correct, then it would be that the real Archaeotania has been living in the oceans of the Tempest for thousands of years, since before the sundering. That would make sense given that on the source, Archeotania (who probably died during one of the calamities) would be the monster that sparked myths of Leviathan to the Saghin. So on the Source, legends of Archeotania were corrupted over thousands of years to become Leviathan, Lord of the Whorl, and on the First Archeotania never perished because there was never any calamities, so it survived intact to pester the Ondo.


Also I think it was interesting that Archeotania used some techniques like Megaflare and Gigaflare. I wonder if it inspired the primal Bahamut similar to how Shinryu was a primal that was inspired by Midgardsrmr.
