Perhaps it goes back to the middle of the Sixth Astral Era in this case, since many of the races/clans went disproportionately to specific city-states mid-era.
    Adventurers just tend to have zero time for this stereotype / distrust nonsense. All that matters in the world is who really has your back, who really helps you survive, and that you live your life to the fullest because your next adventure could be your last.
    Thanks for clearing this up.

As far as anyone in Ishgard is concerned, there could be a thousand excuses for her arrival. Maybe they're the wife and daughter of a man who saved your life. Maybe you're righteous for taking care of them. They don't know. They just need to mind their own business and expect the Fury's justice if anything happens to them.
    The daughter is going to be a character I want to RP as so it is a pretty important part of the story but yes I want to emphasis the hellish realities of poverty, the loss that people suffered due to the Calamity and on the mother's love story with Fluerent. I really really like the ideas of Fluerent appearing or at least spinning it in a way of him being righteous for taking care of them and everyone should mind their own business and expect the Fury's justice if anything happens to to them.

    I learned a lot from this post thanks. c: (had to divide my post in half because for some reason I hit a text limit)
