    I don't think we will see Ramuh until the first expansion (or whenever Ala Mhigo is released). Unlike the other primals, Ramuh's only desire is to protect the Twelveswood where the Sylphs live. Of all the primals, he's the least aggressive. The only way we'd have to fight him is if somehow we needed to intrude more and more into Sylph territory. That would be enough to enrage him. Ala Mhigo fits perfectly into this scenario since it will be accessed from Larkscall (you can see the road in-game now, it's just blocked off). Ramuh could get angry at the sudden influx of adventurers trying to reclaim Ala Mhigo from the empire, or perhaps the empire purposely rouse his ire as an attempt to impede us from our goal. Either way, I think they will be connected at some point.

    I also foresee Gilgamesh being a retelling from the Wandering Minstrel. An 8-armed man fits perfectly with his tendency of "embellishments." :P

    Dunno, if the tainted Sylphs were to summon him he could possibly view anything and everything that isn't sylph, plant or animal in the Black Shroud as an enemy of the woods and go on a rampage. "Protecting" the Twelveswood as he deems it to be.

    Yes and no. But there is still an air of mystery around Ramuh since SE hasn't released a lot of info. There already exists Tempered sylphs in the Sylphlands, which leads many to believe he's already been summoned and is just watching from the shadows. This fits into his lore as a benevolent leader of the Sylphs. Yes, he is a primal, but if he has calm demeanor and logical approach to how he handles internal affairs within the forest, I think it would be really cool if instead of fighting against him, he would help us instead (viewing the Gridanians as a much lesser threat than the impeding Garlean army camped right next door).

    Didn't the Garleans unsettle the Slyphs ? and there is a Garlean stronghold right next door to them.
