Some interesting rumours

If this is the case, we need to stage an intervention NOW. It's time to bring back Ixion as the lightning primal, imho.

Now, back to rampant progressive speculation. Looking at the map of Eorzea, I don't think it's Dravania we have to worry about; Remember: the beast tribes don't come from exactly the same areas as the woken races; only close by. If one crosses Dravania's valleys, three options present themselves:

1) Continue west to Sharlayan (City of the woken; home to at least Y'shtola)
2) Head north-west of Sharlayan to the open area with the huge dragon above it
3) Head directly north, through the frozen mountains Abalatia's Spine (the home of the Hellsguard) to a land called The Farreach.

That third one seems like a good place to house giant ice monsters. I agree that it's most definitely the cycloptic mobs from the concept art pack - and who else would their primal be but Shiva?
