    Nidhogg is down, but there's still a lot of his "children" attacking Ishgard. That's how they explain why there's still hostil dragon everywhere in Dravania and Coertas

    I'm curious as to what - if anything - Arenvald will do moving forward given that the Scions are likely to be operating in and around Ala Mhigo come 4.0. Here's hoping his status as a Garlean half-breed gives us something a bit more in-depth than him effectively brushing off one of his parent races as evil and the other as completely justified.

    Granted, I have a stake in it myself since I role-play a Garlean half-breed myself who is seeking to see Garlemald and Eorzea become allies rather than enemies. I'm just terribly wary and weary of the 'defector' trope coming into play though. Not just in FFXIV but certain other settings too.

    So, in short...I'm surprised that Arenvald doesn't have more to say but I think he might by the time 3.5 swings around.

    My memory is fuzzy and I don't have a reference, but if I recall correctly Arenvald is a child by rape...

    ... and even if not, he's a survivor of Livia's raid on the Waking Sands...

    ... I only have a 2 year degree in psychology, but I'm pretty sure those sorts of things would not give Arenvald a favorable opinion of the Garleans. Just my two cents, though.
