If they do that I am going to scream a lot because my WoL/D is Meracydian by birth (raised in an island south of Old Sharlayan) and by having her being a Seeker of the Sun (cats), her guardian deity being Azeyma and being a native Meracydian, if Meracydia turns out to be Egypt-based I will have just hit the jackpot.

We do know Sephirot draws quite a bit from old Jewish culture, and Judea was not very far from the lands Ancient Egypt ruled over. That, and the fact Egyptians and Hebrews coexisted for a long time before the whole slavery shabang. There is context for that if it were the case.
