Is Hydaelyn a primal?

[TeaTimeBear]

I said ACTIVELY, as in going out of their way to get them. That one came to Bahamut due to the player's actions in the finale of 1.0, remember? Bahamut didn't do a damn thing to pull him there...or the other one.

It's different though

Nael the original is gone, Bahamut didn't temper his female copy rather he reconstructed the last remaining remnants of Nael. The copy was born through Bahamut so she never entirely had a her own will without some of his influence.. Being his creation and all, there's never any sign of her regarding Bahamut with respect based off what I've read.

Hydaelyn is not a primal. She is the goddess of the world in which we dwell. Just like altana, zodiark is also a god. And with the weakening of Hydaelyn within our world he grows stronger. It is through this he will make a return.

There are gods and then there are primals, you select a god with whom your char is affiliated with when you make your character. Said gods and goddesses come from Hydaelyn. Please do not mistake the mother crystal for a primal.
