I wonder how much cultural mixing the Elezen and the Hyur had since they still maintain separate naming conventions and do not mix their races even after the establishment of Gridania. I also wonder what the Elezen think of only Hyur being chosen as Padjal.

It would be neat if the game could revisit and expand on Gridania, Gelmorra, and what all is going on there now and in their history because Limsa and Ul'dah always got the spotlight despite the Twelveswood's setting being more "classical fantasy".
I want to say it happens but not as often as you think it would. Just look at how some of the Wildwood treat non Wildwood. Correct me if my memory is wrong, but I want to say the padjal child we meet in the Stormblood whm story had an elezen father. So they're an extremely rare case if I'm correct. I file the Padjal under my beings that stop aging in some form umbrella. As I think of them in the same way as D from Vampire Hunter D or Vampire Princess Miyu. Where both grew and aged normally until their teens. Or late teens in in D's case. That even if they look as though they're forever locked in a youthful state doesn't mean that time isn't able to work on them. I'm not even sure if we know what one looks like if they were to die of old age and not you know being killed while exploring the world like A-Towa-Cant was.
