Happen to remember a rough location of where they discuss it? I know MSQ has some flashbacks to Careneau, but they don't really go into the leadup from what I recall. Most of the Dalamud/Bahamut stuff was handled through Binding Coils, which is why those raids had some outstanding story. I seem to recall some of it being mentioned in the CT quests, as well, but neither of those were MSQ.
