What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

[Turtledeluxe]

Nowhere in anything pertaining to Pandaemonium is it remotely implied there's a tangential timeline at play. Quite to the contrary; we are explicitly in the same Elpis for the portion of the story taking place there.

Now, here's a question:
If the WoL was unable to effect change in Elpis, how exactly is it they are directly responsible for morbols? And no, I'm not joking. That's a thing you can do while you're there, and the game makes it super apparent their continued existence in the modern world is entirely your fault. There's also the matter of the WoL having say in what traits behemoths have.



The writers make it clear that she at no point divulged what she knew of Meteion or the world's future to her people.

I should also point out Emet-Selch only made it through the sundering intact because she intentionally left a crack in it with full expectation he would recognize it and save himself. This action was deliberately carried out with the intent of facilitating the timeline she'd had described to her by the Warrior of Light. Noting of course she possessed full knowledge of what Emet-Selch and his fellow Ascians would become in time, their objectives, and the untold deaths they would cause in the pursuit of those objectives.

If our Elpis visit is what actually happened in the original time then I don't understand your original argument that Emet couldn't have gleaned our past from someone who saw us or the Aether. His memories were wiped and we are clearly a reincarnation but surely since it's so casual he could find it from some other subject or the Aether? And then what about everyone else who were investigating the final days? I've already asked why is Venat the single person who can solve the mystery? Bc you want to poke holes in EW or?

Her playing games with Emet doesn't prove anything. The point is she explicitly tells us she's going to bring people I to the fold and I assume she does (the Twelve??) but whatever she does fails because she can't stop the Zodiark solution...

Emet also says "our solutions would not have brought mankind this far". So Venat has those solutions because why???
