    Given this guy's previous posts in the lore subforum, I'm in that field of 'I can't believe this person is serious, because if they are serious then they are astoundingly bad at reading comprehension'.

    Not getting that Ardbert's group are from the First... that requires either completely missing, misunderstanding, or outright not believing all following facts:
    1. Ardbert outright saying they were from the First after Xelphatol,
    2. Ardbert himself reappearing in the First, connecting with you on that previous contact, and on recognizable things you encounter like Seto,
    3. The Cardinal Virtues in your role quests of choice all being connected to Ardbert and being identical to the Warriors of Darkness,
    4. The actual cutscene in Amh Araeng showing a flashback to Minfilia teleporting the crew back to the First to stop the Flood at Nabaath Araeng,
    5. That final button at the end of Shadowbringers showing them reuniting as ghosts.

    Missing one or two of those I understand; I admit I did forget that first speech until I started recording cutscenes for use in videos, and I literally just now had to check if that Amh Araeng cutscene existed because I wasn't sure I didn't somehow imagine it.

    But missing every single one of those? That would require missing entire story arcs and extremely iconic scenes; theoretically you could do that by story and level skipping, but if you did that, you wouldn't have known about their 3.x story arc, surely. And I just checked his Lodestone page and I see he owns things he wouldn't have if he completely skipped Shadowbringers, like the ShB collectors' edition mount and the wind-up G'raha Tia.

    This guy has to be trolling with stupid questions, because I actually can't imagine a situation where someone seriously has them.
