Ya from how things goes we can expect the return to the source being 5.3 then after that it is finally going into Garlean Empire (or atleast the set up to get into the place) in 5.4 to 5.5 then we meet the Finale of this long Season 1 storyline in 6.0 where Zodiark/Ascians are finally defeated in whatever means the finale of this long story has prepared for even if it is a Crazy God powered Zenos as the Finale boss that has gone full Kefka on the World.

Then from there was can only assume what the new Storyline set after the Defeat of Zodiark/ Ascians maybe.

In all honestly, i still think the Zodiark/Ascian vs Hydaelyn Storyline has been dragged on long enough for it to finally end in 6.0. The entire set up is now set for it as well by the end of 5.0 so it is only a matter of the Journey towards that long awaited finale in 6.0.
