About that Lyon guy
Getting his file from Castrum reveals he was demoted from sas to rem so it is a power switcheroo but Lyon still has Gabranth's respect since he has fought with Basch since Landis and Lyon respects Noah as well.
It is very nice to see a full legion going all out, this feels like an actual war rather than what SB did, Bozja has really highlighted how poorly handled 4.0 was and how much a crux Zenos was to drive the narrative, fear was the primary motivator for people to obey him, he was a monster and still is, we are not facing a monster at Bozja, we are facing different ideals, honest and good ideals and a lot of the legion is more than willing to die to see Noah's country come to fruition.
Man I love Matsuno's work, he has taken the base of FFXIV and made it work while also not making it disjointed from the main game.
