We first met the Twelfth Sword and Twelfth Staff way back in story-mode Haukke Manor, when they openly told the WoL that they were merely there "to take the measure" of his/her strength for Lahabrea.

All four servants would turn up in the Heavensward summoner storyline.
Hmm…Even with the Sword and Staff being Lahabrea's underlings, can we be certain that the Chalice and Pentacle are his as well? I haven't done post-50 SMN story, so I wouldn't know if there's text you haven't quoted that supplies the answer (and xivdb no longer has quest text to check). Basically, I'm assuming that the "Numbered Item" refers to a hierarchy, but does the number determine the leading named Ascian, or does the item? Are the Twelfth X's all Lahabrea's, or are all the Swords and Staves? Or, indeed, only one of the two between Sword and Staff, with the other being a different Ascian lending his underling for a mission?
