I've seen people claim that the defector in the 5.2 dialog is changing gender based on your character, but I cannot find a source of that. Can anyone *cough* moose *cough* find a source of that?
It'd be nice to actually have confirmation for that theory, otherwise, there are way more options still open. Current-time Elidibus could be the diplomatic Amaurotine actually part of Venat's group, since it's notable that they didn't really object Zodiark's summoning in the first place. They just thought it'd not be enough.
