This is my concern as well. It'd be worse than the Meteion reveal. I feel they had the opportunity to go the 'higher power' route with Hydaelyn and Zodiark, but instead chose to make them primals. The only other thing is we know the star somehow doles out souls, but I thought that was either random or had to meet some sort of naturally achieved criteria? It didn't seem implied that there's a consciousness in Etheirys making the decision.

I still don't know what the 12 are supposed to be and, speaking of which, is anyone else good with recognizing voices? I saw someone on Reddit say that Nald'thal is Hythlodaeus & Emet's VAs, but I can't tell with the music and battle noises. I've also seen some say Azeyma is Venat, but comparing the raid to the Hydaleyn trial it doesn't sound like the same VA to me. I have my doubts that even if the 12 do share VAs with other characters that it necessarily means anything.
