    then again none of the AST lore makes sense after the ShB changes anyway (hoo boy card lore), and it wouldnt surprise me to see the devs make a new class from the stolen parts of another when it was still good.
    There is an npc in the Hildabrand quests that in a time mage. It's quite a good little bit of quest chain.

    now that i'm able to post again (i didnt know there was a daily limit, that's weird), that npc was: sadly part of "in it's own world" non-canon content (per yoshi-p), not a mortal (effectively a MASSIVE battery), and suffered horrible consequences for it's use.
    (he's also my current and eternal minion, since his original game is my fave and he's my favorite character therein)

    At one point, we will go to Old Sharlayan because too many main NPC are related to it.
    Gigi has been fabricated by Kwane (a Time Mage ?) from Old Sharlayan.
    So, everything is possible (with the fact that more and more non-canon contents has become canon since ShB)

    I honestly won't be surprised if we enter Sharlayan in 6.0 considering Garlemald is currently in a sea of fire due to Civil War. Garlean Empire is basically almost gone at this point due to internal conflict.

    Weapon Saga side of the war for Garlean Empire is to end the conflict with Ala Mhigo quickly using the Weapons so that the Garlean Empire won't have to worry about a 3rd/4th faction (being the Alliance) getting involved in the Civil War.

    Resistance Saga is basically just a 3rd Faction of Garlean Empire, lead by Gabranth, seeking to obtain a new weapon for themselves to win the Civil War while the Resistance focus on rebuilding their legendary weapons.

    In the end, Garlean Empire is basically dead by internal conflict at this point and we're just dealing with stragglers trying to keep what is left of the Garlean Empire together even if it is in millions of pieces.

    thus is probably how Sharlayan fits into this since with the Garlean Empire basically fallen they may see this as a opportunity for their own benefits considering we know from current lore that Sharlayan does questionable things just as the Garleans have but in more incognito ways compared to the Garleans who are more open about it.

    That or the Alliance and/or Scion may see this as a opportunity to convience Sharlayan to end their isolation policy and open up to the world now that the Garlean Empire is no longer a threat.
