Re: Swiss Cheese

There is something to be said that Venat, even in becoming the primal Hydaelyn, is still Venat.

As I understood it, the Elidabus we know was himself a recreated primal independent of Zodiark. We do not know if the original Elidabus was destroyed when Z was created, we do not know if Elidabus was destroyed as part of the extraction, and we do not know if the original Elidabus "Evolved" into a primal version.

I am inclined to believe the original Elidabus is dead, that it is impossible to separate a "host" from the primal when fully formed, and the Elidabus we know is a recreated version envisioned by the Ascians.

So, with all of that, I feel the primals are created much like a computer program- they have a set purpose that over time might become corrupted/decayed. As they are not meant to exist long term, they decay/degrade over time.
