NPC dialog and lore supports this. Check out Azury Ariella's Lore Compilation / Guide for more info.

But you know what? Screw the lore. Only a minority cares about having wyverns. The majority of us don't want it. Most have already said they'd rather have a dragoon with dragon-like abilities. No one on the wyvern side has offered anything that could possibly make wyverns look appealing to the rest of us. And nothing us anti-wyvern peeps are saying matters to you guys. So I don't think anything is going to change here. Throwing a wyvern in there just to appease a few people who can't let it go is a step backwards to most of us.
Apparently you didn't read any of the previous posts I actually DID propose a solution. But as I ALSO have said before, those of the majority, such as yourself Orophen, don't offer any constructive discussion just the "Wahhh baby I don't want it!" /pout

If the lore is again different then previous FF and especially XI FINE no issue there but then Yoshi and the Devs need to change the job name from Dragoon to Dragon Slayer or Killer or something NOT RELATED too Dragoons which most of us who played them remember them by. If that happens, I'll stand next to you and agree there should be NO WYVERNS.
Otherwise, just because others can't have a decent conversation, don't group me with them. All I have said thus far is a possible resolution, how to fix the discrepancies and asked how or why things are named the same but not the same in lore.

Also just to add, my want to have a Wyvern is reminiscent from XI and tbh, it's a fantasy game and I think it's cool to have. Just like all those SCREAMING about having their ridiculous Goobbue mounts. Opinions are like assholes, we all have one an to each other, the others opinion and ass stink.
