6.0 Predictions: Will it be Garlemald, Sharlayan, or Meracydia?

[Rymi64]

Yes, we're a fragment of hero from a race with arguably godlike powers compared to normal people. A fragment that is also much closer to being whole than the fragmented people we interact with. A fragment of a person who's memory lives on as a god to the Au Ra and a god of the Twelve and who knows what else, so I think it's fair to consider our character on a level beyond everything we interact with.
As for toning down power, I already gave a solution. In cleaning up the Ascian problem and Zodiark once and for all we could sacrifice whatever power it is that makes us the best at everything. As someone mentioned above, people could already accept us being relatively more normal during Heavensward. The only thing making it worse is continuing the DragonBallZ-esque villain structure we've been using.
Regardless, if you like it how it is, that's fine. These are my own complaints and I'm not saying they're any more valid than your own. Just that there are options available if they wanted to travel that path and that I would personally prefer it.

We didn't do those things though it was azem. We ourselves are not azem we just happen to have their soul.

The thing is though we dont really have a power that makes us best at everything we just have natural talent. Like Zenos we are just naturally good at learning things and you can't just take that away from someone. Plus we are not the best at everything since if we were we would not need the scions to do anything at all. We are not a aetherologist we are not a master strategist and even some crafters we are not the best at it.

This makes sense when you consider Azem, but you're looking at it in the wrong direction. Its not important that the WOL becomes Azem reborn or repossess his talent, but the missing Ancient plot holes revolve around the WOL remembering what Azem did--so as to inform the WOL on what to do now.

I can't be the only one who finds it suspicious that Azem refused to side with the Hydaelyn faction and the Zodiark faction, yet somehow has been reincarnated as the champion of Hydaelyn? Furthermore, is the "blessing of light" just code for the WOL is tempered to Hydaelyn?

It could be that they simply disagreed with summoning another primal. Look what the first one did.

Which is fine, but still doesn't connect how Azem's reincarnation was choosen as Hydaelyn's champion. If the WOL has the echo and is forced to confront the Ascians who were their former friends at some point Hydaelyn is gambling the WOL remembers and changes their mind.
