Thema: [4.4 Raid Spoilers] Omega's Origin Is Nuts

The sheer distance Omega implies it pursued Midgardsormr does suggest, to me at least, that it's very plausible both it and Midgardsormr are from another solar system.

You can see other galaxies with the naked eye*, though Ishgardian astrologians do have the aid of telescopes and the like. Also, you can track the movement of actual stars, not just planets in our same solar system...

*not so much on Earth today thanks to light pollution - but before the electric light took over, it was easy to see the Milky Way from basically anywhere, and on the night of the new moon you can see nearby galaxies like Andromeda and so on.

You can see other galaxies with the naked eye*, though Ishgardian astrologians do have the aid of telescopes and the like. Also, you can track the movement of actual stars, not just planets in our same solar system...

I don’t have the quote now, but they definitely said they were tracking the movement relative to other stars.

While they could be tracking actual star movement, it's a much smaller and slower business than planetary movement. (Article: proper motion)


EDIT: The most practical resolution might be that, as Moose put it, the "dragon star" and the explicitly-named-dragon-homeworld "dragonstar" are not the same thing.... but that seems like a disappointing answer to the previously established link between the dragon star and the extraterrestrial dragons themselves. What makes it important to them, then?
