Though for me, the big question is how will the story transfer WoL from Season 1 finale in 6.0 to Season 2 beginning in 6.1 since Season 2 is meant to be a new story separated from the Zodiark and Hydaelyn storyline. This will mean they willl have to cover a lot of things in 6.0 MSQ near the end such as what became of each Scions now their long mission is over and even how WoL will start his/her new beginning before 6.1.

However, a part of me fears to achieve this they may have the "reset the world so Ascian never existed" scenario like certain fantasy stories goes with that cause everyone to forget the WoL because the Ascians never existed and the History of the planet is alted to a point characters ended up living different lives. Yet, this route may provide a full circle ending by having the WoL seen walking down the road before being picked up by a carriage leading to Gridania or Ul'dah or getting on a ship to Limsa (based on which starting city the player had in 2.0 MSQ) and meet the Merchant from their intro once again. Thus WoL begins his/her journey in Season 2 the same way in Season 1 beginning, on a carriage or ship to their starting city to begin a new adventure.
I would assume there will be another adventure to be had at the beginning of 6.1. They have 5 patches to build up to another expansion worthy story. I'd assume some characters may be pushed into retirement to open the stage for new main players. But a new villain will manifest by 6.4 and I'm sure there will be a simple mystery or loose end that turns out to be more complicated then we can imagine.
