I feel it has been going on long enough and 6.0 needs to wrap up this storyline as well, otherwise it wont feel satisfying to me or like a complete season 1 finale. Then in season 2 we can move on to new threats and arch's and locations.
Because taking the over the palace stops the civil war that erupted following the death of Solus. Fandaniel wearing the skin of an influential person allows the people to not question who he is. Giving them control of the Empire and it's resources to say, idk, start the end of the world. The real question is what will they do bring back Zodiark? And why do they need an army to do it? Probably because we are going anywhere but the Empire.
