MSQ SPOILERS!!! Question

[Vivi_Bushido]

Most likely Rhalgr, the Destroyer, one of the Twelve and the patron deity of Ala Mhigo.

Also, for story and/or lore related questions, we have a Lore subforum here under the Gameplay section. There's currently a 3.5 story topic in there if you want to see further speculation.

I agree. It was most likely Rhalgr.

"Let's summon the whole damn 12.... what could go wrong?"

I love villain logic.

[AnaviAnael]

I think they were trying to summon Rhalgr personally. Like Amariel said, the one guy was calling out for him as he died.

I can see it being the Ala Mhigan resistance ideal of Rhalgr

Louisoix would have risked summoning primal versions of the 12 if he didn't stop the ritual, which he planned on doing.

The Archon’s plan was to summon the Twelve using forbidden arts known only to him. With their combined strength, he was certain that he could prevent the fall of the lesser moon. Such strength, however, posed a threat in itself. Should Eorzea’s patron deities assume physical form, it seemed more than likely that they would be prone to the same appetites as the gods of the beastmen. Should that prove the case, their mere presence would bleed the land of life. And so Louisoix would instead call upon a fraction of the Twelve’s power—enough to stay Dalamud’s descent, and no more.
“It seems a fine balance to strike. Are you certain you can do it?”
Louisoix’s voice was distant. “Mayhap not. But the Twelve cannot be suffered to set foot upon Eorzean soil.” And then, head bowed, he told her the rest.

I'm still in the Shinryu camp, given the context. Rhalgr seems too obvious whereas Shinryu has a fairly consistent 'rivalry' with Omega since their debut in FFV.

[Greven]

Rhalgr the Destroyer: it's the the Ala Mhigan deity and what the dying Mhigan resistance guys were probably praying to. Just to add more it almost happened more than once in the Little Ala Mhigo story.

[Lone-wolfe-02]

It's probably Rhalgr. What's worrying if it is Rhalgr we'll likely see people attempting to summon others of the twelve.

[ADVSS]

need to recheck the trailer, because i thought there was a clip of alphinaud mentioning omega as an old relic or something. so,,,part 2? 3,55

[Derio]

That is the question. Was he properly summoned, or was an abomination summoned instead. The abomination known a Anima who represents darkness and death.

[Amariel34]

It would be so cool if it looked like Anima. I'd love to see him in game. But someone said they saw human feet in the ball of light, so it's most likely not him. But we need Anima in game. And Hades. Hades would be soooo cool. I've also wondered if they will ever add Emerald and Ruby Weapons. I still rage at Emerald's insta-kill attack. :P
