Reporting: A world-ending threat is happening with no ascian involvement in sight. Suspicious....


Having studied Greek extensively over the years, here is a list of names to apply in the future for the rest of the Ascians:
Major Deities of the Greek Pantheon Not used in the story:
Aphrodite (According to a post below - Aphrodite might be Venat)
Apollo (Maybe Oschon is Apollo the Ancient)?
Ares (I highly suspect Halone is Ares The Ancient, Non-Ascian)
Demeter (I highly suspect Nophica is Demeter The Ancient, Non-Ascian)
Dionysus
Hera
Hestia (Very unsure, but I think Azeyma is Hestia The Ancient, Non-Ascian)
Persephone
Poseidon (Thaliak or Llymlaen might be Poseidon the Ancient, unsure)
Zeus (I highly suspect Rhalgr is Zeus The Ancient, Non-Ascian)
List of Unused Primordial Names (Since Gaia was used in the story):
Aether (The Magic Mechanic of FFXIV, so obviously can't be used)

List of Unused Underworld Deity Names (I'm listing these too because some of implications in the game's story so far)

Thanatos (Boss in the Labyrinth of the Ancients, so cannot be used)
The Arai
The Furies
Trophonius
OTHER:
Nymeia might be Clotho, Lachesis or Atropos
Just something to keep in mind since there is names some of you all probably don't recognize. Sometimes certain deities in the stories were listed as Titans and other times not depending what the city-state worshipped and weaved into their stories, but, this isn't a history class obviously of the real world, but to provide names on what you think might fit the Ascians and Ancients.

I would argue that Venat is Aphrodite as in at least the Japanese version they call her Venus which is the Roman God they slapped Aphrodite onto when they adopted the Greek Pantheon.




Venat is not Aphrodite for several reason but mostly Venat is her actual name and not station like the Convocation, she was the previous Azem. Also, her name in JP is Venas while generally Venus is spelled as Wenusu (I re-checked and it's actually Biinesu, which is even more different) in JP, this is a common misnomer because the names sounds kinda similar but that's not the intention.

ヴェーネス is a character from Final Fantasy XII who was seen (by their group of origin and previous allies) as causing history to deviate from "the right course" in favor of putting the reins of history in the hands of man. I'd be surprised if the reference was deeper than that, but once in a blue moon, "thing reminds me of other thing so the connection is intended" ends up working out.
