That would make sense, if it weren't the WoL who defeated Bismarck so that the Discount Elf Pope could get steal the key to Azys Lla. I wanna see Thordan vs. Bismarck.

"I thought that my invincible power would hold the world captive, leaving me in a freedom undisturbed. Thus night and day I worked at the chain with huge fires and cruel hard strokes. When at last the work was done and the links were complete and unbreakable, I found that it held me in its grip." - Rabindranath Tagore



I wonder what's the purpose of Bismarck summoning from an ascian point of view. The vanu vanu definitely didn't learn the summoning out of nowhere, especially when it has Azys Lla key in its stomach. How did it get there and why?





I imagine they taught the Vanu Vanu to summon it a long time ago, and then nothing could really stop it. It probably ate an Allagan ruin inside of one of the sky islands, incidentally ingesting the key.

As I recall, Bismarck had only been recently summoned for...hell if I know. My guess is because the Ascians wanted to do the whole "primals make this world weaker" think and just figured "we taught it to the non-feathered birds, let's teach it to the feathered birds."
I do recall that you find out that the key is in the Sea of Clouds, and decide it might be wise to go talk to the Vanu. Along the way to talk to the good ones, you get a cutscene where Bismarck eats a random island. When you get to the Vanu chieftain, he's like "Yeah, we'll give you the key, but you literally just missed him eating the island it was kept on."





It's the first Primal we see in Heavensward when we rescue Emmanellain from the Vundu or Gundu or whatever the bad fat yagudo are called. So it was around probably before we even set foot inside of Ishgard, at a minimum.As I recall, Bismarck had only been recently summoned for...hell if I know.
