    The 5AE civilizations almost definitely knew about the Allagans, given they weren't around too long ago and they left crap everywhere. Still, I don't get the feeling the Void Ark is a retrofitted Allagan vessel.
    Actually between the weapons, furniture (you can check that out either on MB or the Fractal) and the ADS nodes, I thought the Allagins were in love with the tron lines on black aesthetics more than the chrome. Still dosn't make the Void Ark as refurbished Allag vessel theory more likely but still....

    Like how the Goblins are summoning Alexander using/into an existing defense system, or why the structure in the lake changed when we got access to Alexander. If its similar, the organic look might be due to a Mhachi summoning of voidsent into the hull of an existing relic from the Allagans era.

    I think "chrome" was a poor choice of words on my part. All Allagan shit is shiny, while the Void Ark is very dull.

    The Allagans do love their Tron lines, though! (There are some on the Void Ark's "wings," but nothing else, and their coloration differs significantly from the Allagan standard sky blue.)

    That's actually an interesting possibility, but I still hope the Allagans had nothing to do with the Void Ark.

    Quite tired of everything being either their fault or the Ascians. Or both.

    If the Void Ark is a Ghost ship Ala The Flying Dutchman then maybe Diablos is the "Davy Jones" of FF14.

    Diabolos might just be a in-between like Atomos or may only be in a cutscene. I don't recall anything mentioning him as a boss other than being shown in an image teaser about the raid. Other than the mother bomb in that hard mode dungeon. Didn't someone ask if we could guess what classic boss we might see in the new Raid? I'm not sure if I noticed anything in the trailer that looked familiar other than the dungeon boss.

    I still don't think the Allagans anything to do with the Void Ark. Allagan tech looks very magiteck with spinny crystals and things covered in lights. The mechanical parts of the Void Ark look mechanical rather than the traditional almost Sci Fi look the Allag have.

    Its worth remembering while the Amdipori lacked much engineering, the Nym have a lot of gearwork running through the structure of the Wanderer's Palace. Also, its possible there were other cultures in Eorzea's past that managed to develop mechanical technology of that level. It just looks to 'primitive' for the Allag.

    I never said that could be allag. Maybe the Mhiachi used some allag creations as references ( with voidsent help ).
