Yeah I know..from the egi quests...but that's why I said "something random." Just going from past games, SE isn't entirely against going back on the "rules" their worlds follow, despite what they say. It usually comes along with some really out of left field reason, too. Even if it wasn't a direct primal summoning, as you say, but another tier of "egi" that consumes so much energy that it can't be sustained beyond a single, devastating attack. See..any random reason could work.
