I believe it's probably because Arvenald can do the Echo shield too??

For my response to the OPs post:
What could possibly the Scions need Lolorito for? And the part about Pipin asking Raubahn, "Is this truly what you want father?" This is just a theory so don't take it seriously, but I get the feeling that Raubahn may leave Ul'dah so he can be in charge of Ala Mhigo; he just seems the right guy to lead the country and keep the people in check. Furthermore, the summoning in the throne room, I bet some people are gonna get tempered and we'll have to kill them...
And lastly, Lyse is going to let Fordola live even if she says there's no point in keeping her alive.

Given how we see Raubahn cut down a resistance member it's safe to assume.

I'm quite curious about Return to Ivalice and specifically how it will connect with the Ascians. I'm loath to believe Return to Ivalice will simply be just our vivid imaginations at work, and even if it is it would be quite the coincidence if major characters in a Garlean fairytale just so happen to share names with Voidsent that have attempted to cause the apocalypse multiple times even before the first Garlean was born. Regardless of how they'll implement Ivalice there are DEFINITELY going to be implications.

I highly doubt it's the case. One Tales From The Dragonson War sidestory has their feud dealt with, with Lolorito surrendering Teledji's assets and half of his own wealth to the crown. The two are in good terms, for now, as long Nanamo doesn't try to cause another..... instability.

I can only assume that we'll need Lolorito for his connections, to what end I'm still not sure but it may have something to do to counteract possible Garlemald's hostile response after Ala Mhigo liberation. The man once did try to stop the Empire's invasion with his wealth.

The summoning maybe Lakshmi again, given the presence of the Qalyana. I'm also curious if the Resistance we face maybe one of the many factions. We only interacted with Conrad's faction, so I wonder if it's the case.
