    First of all you can edit your post to bypass the 1000 character limit. Second of all, I'll be editing this post in a minute to dispute something....

    EDIT: My dispute is over your positioning of MCH. They fall more into True Neutral rather than Lawful Neutral. This is because yes, while they do work to defend the people of Ishgard, they're more focused on being able to defend themselves and their close loved ones when no one else will. They're also working to be considered equals rather than lesser citizens, which implies a goal for personal gain, (even if it's a noble one), which leans more into Chaotic territory. They're not necessarily Chaotic enough that they're attempting to overthrow the government, but they're not Lawful enough that they agree with everything that's done. MCH also don't fall into either the Good category, because they're willing to take matters into their own hands to protect themselves and others despite having no official authority, and are willing to use force and scare tactics, (to an extent), to do so, nor do they fall into the Evil category because they aren't actively trying to assert their power over others and will attempt diplomatic approaches as often as violent ones. All of this leads to an alignment of True Neutral from my point of view, because they are neither Lawful nor Chaotic, Good nor Evil. Their goals are about protecting themselves and their family while working against the "normal" rules of society to gain respect in Ishgard, and they are willing to use either violence or diplomacy to do it. They're also not necessarily vested in any "noble goal" truly as much as they are in trying to lead their lives however they want....

    Also, they don't work under Cid in any regard. Skysteel Manufactury and Garlond Ironworks are completely separate entities even if they are on friendly terms and will cooperate.....
