So what do you think the moving of NPCs like Cid into Ishgard would involve?

Considering the Airship workshop is in Ishgard not surprise there since we saw it in the new trailer released not long ago and they did mention may be a lot more NPCs we know may move to Ishgard as well.

However, a interesting thing they mentioned is that Rowena (and maybe her tomestone operation) may move to Ishgard as well due to her monopoly expanding in 3.0 even more.
