    Emet also refers to the likeness between Elidibus and Lahabrea's creations in French.
    To expand on the French differences:

    - Like in german, Emet's mask suddenly appear on his face
    - The people living on the island are called "natives" which seems to imply they are
    at least less advanced than the people of Amaurot.
    - Emet also say that since we are a hero we shouldn't be Elidibus' enemy.
    - The new lives are also called "ces jeunes pousses" meaning "those young sprouts"
    - Also Elidibus is described as a young man with a small height so while he may have not be an actual child, he was still younger than the rest of the convocation.


    Also did anyone get any Pompeii vibes from the first part ? I mean a village near the sea surrounded by wine cultures frightened by a volcano...

    It should give you a different vibe. What island do we currently have in game that has a volcano and grape vines? La Noscea. Everything is starting to come full circle.

    Because that means we created the hollowed out caves that the Kobolds now call home when we stopped the lava flow, and we essentially did the first summoning of Ifrit/Ifreeta. We ironically have been dealing with the side effects of our own past adventures so many millenia later.

    I don't think there's any correlation between the
    geography of the Source/Shards as they are now and the geography of the original Star (remember, the ruins of Amaurot are well under the ocean a fair but indetermined distance away offshore from Kohlusia's coastline, so there has definetely been some continental changes to the world as a result of the Terminus and the Sundering (also, some of the Ancients ruins in The Tempest are encased in rock, suggesting the planet's crust underwent some major geographical upheaval after the Terminus).

    Also, the story states the island with the volcano Azem went to was "isolated", suggesting it was not near Amaurot at least, possibly on the other side of the world, so it kind of makes that theory less likely, as nice as it was.
