Thread: 3.1 MSQ Reaction [SPOILERS]

Now that we know that Crystals of Light can exists/ survive different era. It makes me wonder how and why these crystals exist? I always thought they manifested for Hydaelyn's chosen and eventually disappear.

It makes me wonder if the WoD and crew might very well be WoL from a different era?

Lol, I meant as in an era a few hundred/thousand years back.

Still, I am of the opinion this is derplander and crew. If the people can forget the WoL (and us) then I am sure they decided to remain forgotten. Ascien magic? Or could it be one of their power of the echo to be able to remove or block memories? They unless they were fighting primals

Darklander and crew were so two-dimensional I strongly suspect they're just primals based off the Warriors of Light from Cartaneau. That, and the dramatic, "We're all wearing black now," thing they've got going on.

I would agree, except when Koji said that Derplander was his own person and so were the people from the cinematics and that they were out there having their own adventures. He even suggested we may run into them come time, and we finally seem to have done just that. (Side note: This is what I thought would happen when we say Darklander on the moon (still confused about that one).)

He's aging at an accelerated rate because he lost his magick. Some clues that stick out is for one we don't know how long Thancred had been scurrying around for but I don't think his hair should be as long as it is considering the amount of time that might of passed. Another clue is Hilda calling Thancred "Old" even though he would preffer to think of himself as "gritty", just lends itself to the idea that maybe Thancred losing his magick effected him in more ways that just not being able to cast spells. If anything does carry from 1.0, Thancred saved a young Minfillia in the flashback/echo scene of an Uldah festival that took place, and yet when we see him in present day he still looks the same while Minfillia has aged into a woman. It does seem weird how Thancred appears to have no physical difference from the day he saved Minfilla when she was but a child and how he is now and now compared to how he looks now. That's my guess though I mean when you consider the witch Matoya, pretty certain she's an old relic, the whole magic thing keeping you alive idea, would anyone really doubt Thancred using it for the sake of vanity?

I remember reading somewhere, I don't know where now, that Thancred, Yda and Papalymo were using magic to slow their aging so Thancred losing his possibly COULD cause him to suddenly, rapidly age to where he normally should be.

I don't know why people keep thinking the WODs are primals or that the WOL him/herself is a primal. Considering how a primal being around ain't exactly subtle when they're just around, you would think at least one of the scions would have taken notice or that we'd be sucking the land dry everywhere we go. Don't give me that we're (including the WODs) are somehow special enough to be a primal, but without the negative aspects.
