Each of the Grand Company quests gives a different piece of the puzzle, though. The Maelstrom quests said nothing about crashing Meteor into Dalamud. Only that the Empire was trying to use Dalamud in some fashion and that it was man made.

Our last quest was all about how Gaius used to be king, but now he's just a lap dog for Nael.
