    They did confirm that the Convocation was in fact planning on harvesting souls during the third set of sacrifices to Zodiark, for those who were being deliberately obtuse about it previously. I don't think the 'withholding information' line of reasoning really works anymore, now that Abyssos is out. Unless you have a bone to pick with the Convocation as well.

    In the german version of it they wrote that more followers would be sacrificed so I guess this is the confirmation that it was people that they planned to use. (Which always made sense, especially since the Ancients have a huuuge amount of aether which would need to be replaced)

    Interesting how old Venat already was when she got the position as Azem. I wonder if Ancients can decide how old they look? Because she still looked just as young in Elpis as she did in that story. Its great to see what she did on her adventures even though I cant see how that would be doable for centuries. But I guess that confirms that the world was way more chaotic than Emet believed it to be.

    There's a meme image of how male/female Ancients age based on the new raid and now I'm wondering how exactly they age as well.

    Like, do you need to break the barrier of 10k years before you get a single wrinkle?

    Lahabrea tells us in Pandaemonium that they can enhance and alter their physical vessels. We can assume they can appear however they wish to.

    If only Lahabrea had been smart enough to justify it with a line like, "'Tis best we work towards the greatest good without [fore]knowledge which might cloud our judgment." Might have kept Emet-Selch off his back a bit, lol.
