Deudalaphon remains the only member of the Ascians/Convocation to not be explicitly named within the game and any of it's suplementary materials upto this point!

I think I vaguely recall that Elidibus left Zodiark's body to act separately from him again? I have no idea how this is possible and whether this means he was still a primal (I think they said he still is...?) or whether he became a normal Ascian again which as a consequence left Zodiark heartless.

But I believe the story said some form of separation had taken place before the sundering and Elidibus had joined Emet-Selch and the others to help them/work with them again.

Elidibus did leave Zodiark when Ancients weren't on agreement on the course of action post-Zodiark, since his seat was to be the Emissary and pretty much solve internal conflicts. He still was pretty much a primal.
I meant that as "using Zodiark to save themselves" wouldn't really work since Zodiark himself was sundered : if he could save himself, he would have, I think. Except if the fact that Elidibus left pretty much rendered Zodiark powerless to make decisions.

Venat deliberately did not sunder them because she knew that they needed to unsundered to play out the events that allowed us to go back in time.

That was an option I was thinking of myself. Pandaemonium may or may not have played a role in things as well. We'll find out once the Normal Raids start up or once they finish at the end of the expansion patches.

But what about Laha-Bread?

But what about Laha-Bread?

Again, because Lahabrea was unsundered in our time, Venat had to leave him unsundered when the split everything else, otherwise he would have not been able to carry out his plots, which effectively brought us to where we are.

Probably Venat sundered everyone, but the trio was somewhere out of the effect of the sundering.

Its unlikely the Wol went as deep in detail to especfiy EVERYTHING to Venat &Co. But since it was a time loop the timeline will fix itself and no matter the reason they wont end being sundered because you cant change the past, at most get a different perspective and the timeline itself is already adjusted from the start counting that you WILL travel to the past and that will enable you on the future to start your journey in the first place

I'm in the "Let's see what Pandæmonium says" boat and don't really have anything to add but I wanted to take a moment to regard:

... Inserting an ellipse so this can't be mouseover read from the main page.

If you mean the entire bit, including "Inserting [...] main page" then, yes, the extra length successfully takes up the rest of the preview. But if you meant that the mouseover preview stops when it encounters ellipses, it does not; the preview is based on length and there are some number of words or characters that it will display before truncating. Sorry for the off-topic but I wouldn't want a forum newbie to see this and think ellipses can break a mouseover preview, and then have them unintentionally spoil something they thought they were diligently protecting against spoiling.
