So...Dalamud in Othard?

[YianKutku]

Edit: So someone just reminded me of the one Xaela tribe who worshiped Dalamud, but thus far that's little more than a single line blurb. I mean, it's something, but it doesn't tell much.

The description for the Dalamiq tribe is as follows:

One of only a few Xaela tribes which has abandoned the nomadic lifestyle and built a small village on an islet in the middle of a two-malm-wide span of the great inner river. It is said they once worshipped the now-fallen lesser moon.

Which raises the question of how long ago they worshipped Dalamud, and whether it was recent enough that the fall of Dalamud was a huge deal to their belief system, or if it was one of those things that only mattered in the distant past, and they were no more or less puzzled by the disappearance of Dalamud as any of the other Xaela tribes.

What does interest me is their name, which is very close to "Dalamud", and has to be more than mere coincidence. Which is significant, because we know the Xaela (in general) do not worship the Twelve. So where did they get the name "Dalamud" from? Dalamud was, in Twelve mythology, the "loyal hound" of Menphina, the goddess of the moon. Did Nhaama in Xaela mythology also have a Dalamud?

(If anyone's wondering, the 51 Scales fanart of the Dalamiq tribe focuses on the "islet village" part of their description.)
