Yeah, and the music matches too.

[Reokudo]

*Fangasm* Eeee

[Garlyle]

Yeah, it would appear that "The Floating Continent" that's present in Heavensward isn't just going to share a name.

There's some theorizing going on that it'll be our next 24-man raid series.

When CT isn't even finished by a long shot ?

When CT isn't even finished by a long shot ?

O.o what are you on about? World of Darkness is the third and final part of the Crystal Tower.

[Remus]

O.o what are you on about? World of Darkness is the third and final part of the Crystal Tower.

I think they mean Eureka, seems that isn't apart of the CT Saga even though they said it has ended after World of Darkness.

I sure hope so! They have lots more details they need to release about Heavensward.

[Dervy]

Yeah. I believe it'll be our 24-man raid as well. The floor patterns as well as the structures shown are EVERY allag-like. The grey-ish floors + the blue neon all over the place give it away to be honest.

I wouldn't be surprised if they mix up the FF6 lore with Allag Lore. Allags had many Emperors and Floating Continent was raised into the sky by an Emperor and Kefka if I remember correctly.

Yoshida's has already stated in the past that the 24-man raid will not be taken from a previous FF game, and that he doesn't want to establish a precedent for "nostalgia raids" as the only 24-man content FFXIV has. But now we have this.

I'm thinking that this may be our next Praetorium, or at the very least our next Mor Dhona. But I have no idea how, yet, and by now it's safe to say that any time they drop speculation-bait like this the real answer is always something totally outside the information they've given us beforehand.
