I've seen questions and debates about who the older twin was, but is this the first clear confirmation...? lol

"I shall refrain from making any further wild claims until such time as I have evidence."

I feel like it got brought up in passing at some point, but I couldn't say where.
Are other characters included?



I think Alisaie mentions something to the effect of that after reuniting with her in patch 3.4. Something along the lines of Alphinaud's recent maturity causing her to sometimes subconsciously call him 'older brother'.
DFFOO itself has quite a few of the Scions as characters. In fact, I think only Urianger was not a part of the cast when i last checked..... and Minfillia.
Currently in Opera Omnia we have Thancred, Papalymo, Y'shtola, and Yda/Lyse from around 2.0 or 2.X time frame while Alisaie and Alphinaud are from 4.X time frame.
The others may just be missing their memories of events beyond 2.X but it is difficult to tell in Act 2 until the storyline deem necessary to reveal it.
The next story chapter is centered on Yda and Papalymo, so I assume that'll sort out when the rest of the XIV cast was taken from.
I do hope they release more XIV characters soonish, though. Praying they'll throw us a curveball and make Emet Selch (Complete with requisite swagger and finger snaps) a playable character before Zenos to capitalize on ShB's popularity. They have both Kam'lanaut and E'aldnarche from XI now, so doubling up on villains from the same game isn't an issue to them, evidently.
I swear I remember Alphinaud being the older twin being mentioned in the game before. I can't recall where but this doesn't sound new to me.

I also remember it being mentioned in either dialogue or cutscenes but I also can't remember when/where exactly lol.


What was the dying wish?
Considering Materia intentionally erased a good amount of the characters memories due to lack of udnerstanding why mortals would value their memories even if the Good comes with the Bad, I am not surprised if they turn out to be from the time between 4.50 to 5.0 time frame at this point.The next story chapter is centered on Yda and Papalymo, so I assume that'll sort out when the rest of the XIV cast was taken from.

Both gods are basically children compared to COSMOS with Materia lacking the understanding of why people would accept the Bad with the Good (which is why she takes away their memories) with having a over compassionate nature thus he nature to want people to not suffer while also not understanding that taking away a good amount of their memories is causing them to suffer.
Spiritus lacks the understanding on why compassion is needed to maintain a world and that the memories of their conflict is not all there is to the world. For him, he believes that the only thing that matters is that life is made to only fight each other and nothing else thus why he is always so heavy on Power and only the Strong will live type of thoughts.
Though considering Opera Omnia is set after NT, with Materia winning the war so she create this world in Opera Omnia and Spiritus losing caused him to start his current plan to destroy the current world to make his world, there is still a lot of questions what happened between NT to Opera Omnia and the nature of these two Gods since COSMOS left the world.
