Also if mommy and daddy crystal were primals, then logically ALL of the countless plants and animals originating from creation magic would have to be primals as well, no?
    (As for the ascians getting tempered, this might've simply been an unintended side effect of Zodiark stopping the terminus. After all, a big part was the chain reaction of the mass hysteria amongst the ancients creating more monsters, so Zodiark might've simply decided that ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL via tempering as a way to stop that)
    I think the statement was misleading, but not necessarily deliberately. I think that its just as you said: they are much better crafted primals. So much better in fact, that many rules we apply to run-of-the-mill primals don't apply to them. He was just using words that we can understand easily.

    It does bring up some interesting questions about creation magic and its limits though. But thats for another thread.
