Zenos flies to the end of all creation to be with you, pours his heart out and offers you the most meaningul gift he can think of, all on a field of light framed by the stars.

It's all very romantic if you think about it

The newest headcanon that I made just this morning with absolutely zero proof is that the moons are linked together across all shards. Which is why when we see the ascians bring Cyella, Unukalhai, and Ardbert across the rift to influence another shard it's always on the surface of the moon. That the teleporter isn't just for travel to and from the surface. And, why in one of the more recent lore Q&A's SE was cagey about talking further about the celestial bodies.

Nothing romantic about being stalked tbh.

I know this headcanon is not true in the slightest, but it's been sticking in my head ever since I played the MSQ:

The title for a traitor to Garlemald is "viator". More specifically, "outcast and enemy to Garlemald", and so the title "viator" is given to mark them as a "wanderer"/"traveller", ie an exile with no home.

However, this is a post facto explanation given for internal Garlean consumption. After all, Solus was the one who came up with the list of Imperial titles, and when he had to think up a title for someone branded traitor and outcast, the first thing he thought of was "traveller", because Emet-Selch still has lingering and complicated feelings over Azem's actions and the Convocation's reactions.

And that also plays further into my earlier comments about him still having lingering feelings over Venat, and Lahabrea still feeling salty about having his concept used without his permission.

Goddess, the Unsundered sure are/were a psychological train-wreck (but then, 12000 years worth of emotional baggage would change a person I guess).

I used to think it made no sense to play through the entire story as anything other than a hyur, especially after what we learned in Shadowbringers.

But after Endwalker, my new headcanon is coming back as a cat or a bunny or whatever is exactly something Azem would do, just to troll Emet-Selch and the Unsundered. This is especially the case if you play a Lalafell.

"Ha! I kicked your ass as a potato!"

I have a headcanon that the reason you get the Wind-up Herois after beating Endwalker is because the WoL has it commissioned offscreen, considering they're probably the only person alive who has seen what Venat looked like before she became Hydaelyn. It seems like something they might do to remember her by. I also think that the reason Argos gets unlocked as a mount after Endwalker is because now that Venat is no longer around you've essentially become his new master.
