We should ally with the Garleans

[Belhi]

Preeeeety sure all the stuff we did to the empire and Gaius in 2.0 didn't go unnoticed, not to mention the new emperor saw our face in 3.0 and already knows who we are.

True but who can say what can happen with crazy echo powers. As I said, whatever happened during the calamity lore wise robbed everyone of the memory of who the Warriors of Light were. They only remember that they existed. They can't even remember what they looked or sounded like. That would suggest there is some way that could allow us to hide who we are.

Didn't Regulus immediately identify the WoL on sight?

That was because of the information

Raoille

had been feeding Varius as his mole in Eorzea - he specifically states her by name and says she explicitly mentioned in her reports to Garlemald that "the Warrior of Light is like to appear at opportune times" (paraphrased slightly). It makes me wonder what other Eorzean secrets she betrayed to the Garleans, particularly concerning us... either way I actually pitied and empathized with her once. Now however, I hope she rots in her cell in the Masraja Pit.

That happened because Louisoix removed the WoL and pals from reality temporarily to prevent Bahamut from murdering them. It has nothing to do with crazy echo powers or anything we could actually do without using immense amounts of aether and probably forbidden magic. I mean, Yshtola maybe could do it, but it'd involve taking another 5 year hiatus and absolutely no one remembering us, not just the Empire.
