    That's not entirely correct - as there's at least one side quest where you use the Echo on Raya-O to see a conversation between her and her sister. She *does* notice what you're doing by the end of it though, and she gets pissed off while somehow throwing you out of the echo before berating you for using it on her and then teleporting off.

    You beat me to it.

    That being said, there is a distinct possibility that E-Sumi-Yan is on to you when you meet at the Greatloam Growery and he sends you to find Pearl Clover fruits. He knows the true history of Fye and Dunstan unlike the rest of town who are playing off gossip. And so, rather than showing his hand, he could choose to wait and see where this unravels. The next time you see him in the present day is at the small harvest, where he is in deep conversation with the Hermit of the Wood, who is also on to you.


    And Moose, thanks for pulling me up on the "leviathan" statement. I clearly had my lore in a knot.

    Whatever work needs to be done to get people up to the same page I'm stuck on so we can start translating it together, that's work well spent! :P

    Ahh i stand corrected, i never got to finish all of Gridania stuff so i had to take a lil liberty.

    Though i still say that O-App and E-Sumi lead you along in the present knowingly.

    And if nothing else we have a whole lot of plot coming up in the future.

    It would be easier to say that the padjal begin to lead you along in order to make best use of your naïvity as the story progresses, even if they don't properly understand what it is you can do. As you spend more time in the past, you gradually go from being a nobody to someone who is a bit of a historical contradiction that O-App is then capable of picking up on.

    "Sonething tells me you will not meet with much trouble finding [Fye]"

    This of course assumes that the echo allows us to make small changes to history, predominantly to what people remember.
