Still thinking about Linkshell Ships?

Jp?b(z)(k) are the labels, very messy hand writing and the reso is crap, but I could be wrong.

Source: I read Eorzean.

A very generous reading... I wouldn't confidently ID any of that small lettering, it's more like random scribbles. And I certainly don't lack for Eorzean literacy either. Also as you said the resolution just isn't there for it.

Anyways, I wouldn't read into the image too much. As far as I'm concerned, it's just ships drawn to add flavor to the map emphasizing a seafaring culture. Crests/flags can be used for many reasons not just linkshells, maybe it's the crest of one of Limsa's shipping companies or pirate bands. If and when ships/airships for players are introduced into the game (and I do believe Yoshi-P has stated FC airships are in the plans), I wouldn't give this map credit for "predicting" it, it would just be the human tendency to draw links where none exist.

Yeah the small lettering is complete gib, which isn't surprising since they do resemble linkshells, it would make sense.
