But that also means that Azem somehow knew that we would come. As if they had knowledge of the future.
So, basically, they are telling us that Azem has the same gender as our protagonist, but also knows what will happen in our character's life.
As far as we know, the only one who knew the future up to this point was Venat, because we told her about it.

Back in 5.3, I remember many players saying we are not Azem, we just inherited his/her soul. But actually...I am starting to wonder...
Are we going to travel back through time to become Azem? Is that what Yoshi-P meant when saying they would "go THAT far" with the story?
It certainly leads to the question of our soul, and how it could become complete again before we travel back.
There's a simple reason for that.
Venat told Azem about what happened in Elpis. She likely told our past self everything that transpired as one of the few people who could be trusted, and when Elidibus said he was going to check Pandaemonium, Azem told him to not enter until the "escort" arrives. Since Azem can't help but be drawn to the world's problems, our past self knows us showing up is 100% going to happen simply because of that "problem magnet" we have. That of course is me guessing. But if I traveled the world and knew I always got dragged into things, I'd know for a fact that my future self would get dragged into it too.
