Primals and Egis

[shinros]

Funny enough I was hoping that the summoner quests would give us more lore on the primals and egi's their history etc. Oh well who knows they may expand the job quests when they add new job skills.

Plus I would not call it a stench in the quest it says when you beat a primal some of their aetheric essence is trapped in your body. I think its similar to what ultima weapon did to the primals but smaller I mean looking at how they die and all that aether spilling out everywhere not all of it goes back to the land (going by the lore that is said in the monk quest and the monk does something similar to power up and get stronger) so the people present during the defeat absorb some of the aether that is spilling out when they "die". The npc who helps you become a summoner pretty much says you got a piece of them in your body a small piece and that is what you summon. So everyone who beats a primal(who survives) has a piece of the primal within in them sitting there waiting to be summoned.

I also think they are aware considering how titan protects you without you even summoning him and the npc during quest says you have to show them your strength for them to accept you as their master. I also bet they are pissed off at you kicking their butts when you first summon them so that can be another motivator for them trying to kill you.
