Nature of the Sound

[Veloran]

Do we have reason to think that Venat still resides in Hydaelyn? I don't think we've been given a lot of evidence that she doesn't.

Venat does say that she'll appear again in a new form. The implication is that she was the original soul of Minfilia.

There's reason to believe that ability to Temper might have been something the Convocation added on purpose - the world's woes were being caused by uncontrolled Creation magic, after all, so one way to combat the problem would be to create an entity that can impose his own control over individuals.

I don't really think that's accurate at all to the issue of the Sound and the Final Days. Creation magic running rampant was more of a symptom than a cause, and we have good reason to believe that Zodiark's tempering wasn't some intentional inclusion to restrict creation magic, as evidenced by the Anyder using creation magic to summon Hydaelyn.

I don't see any reason to call them that as an organisation. Unless I'm misinterpreting, they use that term as a short form for the Anamnesis Anyder, which is odd anyway because there are at least two different locations in Amaurot with the suffix - the other being the Akadaemia which seems to be the base for the Convocation.

I'm vaguely of the belief that the Akadaemia and the Anamnesis are really just two branches of the college, and since they were the ones that summoned Hydaelyn calling them the Anyder is about as good as anything else.
