    So we're left with two possibilities. Either Hydaelyn can simply choose not to temper people; or she can by her presence, whether she wants to or not, which is why she sits in the background handing out Blessings instead.
    Notice the mechanic of Susano's summoning. If he is a primal, he was not summoned with the intentionally flawed ascian methid, this lets him be not unto a hole in the world consuming everything, and also not leaking in such a way as to temper those around him.

    If we allow this as a possibility, then the 4 lords (5?) who gained power slowly and transformed into primals after such a very very long time are not tempering for the same reasons. They say they are not primals, but as the very definition of primal includes tempering and an endless hunger for aether, can we really blame them for having this small mistake?

    For a third example, I give you Enkidu.
