    So I've been fishing, and now I'm curious!

    Greetings lore enthusiasts,

    So, I've been raising an awful skill (IMO) for completions sake, and have been reading a few of the item descriptions of certain aquatic wildlife.

    Firstly and most significant to my interests, the Dark Sleeper.

    A small freshwater fish originally from the eastern continent of Othard. It is said that the first dark sleeper was introduced to Eorzea by an exiled Lalafellin prince who wished to once again experience the luxuries of his homeland.
    As I understand, we'll be hearing more and more about Othard and Doma in the coming patches, and massively so in the expansion (new race!) but for now, I'm content waiting for new landmasses, but exceedingly excited about the idea of restoring a fallen monarchy of an exiled prince's heritage. Quest-lines, woo!

    Garleans: "We killed all blood relatives of the halfling kingdom"
    WarriorOfLight: "Oh no you didn't!"
    • If this son came to Eorzea, there must be some record of him living in The Black Shroud (86% of Dark Sleeper is sourced in the Shroud)
    • What was the reason for him to have been exiled?
    • Did he not consider the effects of introducing external wildlife into a new ecosystem!? If this was Australia...

    Secondly, the Tiger Cod.

    A striped saltwater fish indigenous to the cold northern waters of the Bloodbrine Sea. The name "tiger" is said to have been taken from a similarly striped beast native to faraway jungles of Othard.
    • Tigers? Oh lawdy, are we expecting some kind of heated savannah climates, roasting beaches and... Lalafells in hula dresses?

    This isn't a cry for more information from the devs, but more of a discussion as to what people think/know about the prince or monarchy of Othard, and what they expect to happen when Othard is unlocked to us.

    Oh look, another Lalafell ruled kingdom... At least there isn't a cat-kingdom yet.
