Prepare to have your mind blown

It would be neat if Dalamud pass to be something like.... *input dramatical Chrono Triger music here* LAVOS!!!!.

Well SE has made use of alien entities making changes to earth before just as "the creator" and "Lavos", this last one beign the one who played a gigantic roll into earths changes and evolution, as so going far to control time itself.

And dont forget... the outside body of Lavos was so giant that its shell became a whole mountain in the future of that game's world.

But me im going out of subject. i just like to point that maybe the empyre porpouse dont be make dalamud crash against us, but maybe get it enough close to us to retrieve something from it? be it a rare form of aether or something else that controls it, a lifeform living in it( if it doesnt turn to be itself a living beign), or maybe use it as somesort of weapon to destroy all avatars (remember empyre hate them with passion).

EDIT: Who knows, maybe Dalamud be the native world of the avatars , and the avatars we have atm in our land are avatars that landed on our world and got stuck on our planet when dalamud got summoned time ago, since i dont recall it right, but think a CS makes mention Dalamud has been sumoned succesfully previous to our age.

I actually kind of like the idea that there is something from the actual moon worth harnessing... maybe some super boss or that anti-aether....
I love lore speculation threads!!!!!

Is it me or does Dalmud look man made and not like a moon. God I hope it's not something Death Star-like...

I hope it's something exactly like that...

And I'm surprised nobody is talking about Luclin, from Everquest: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EverQue...dows_of_Luclin

It was a moon of Norrath (read: Eorzea) and was the basis of an expansion's content. This is one of the reasons I'm inclined to think Dalamud won't hit us. Somehow it will be stopped, but still gravitate much closer than previously. Then OH GOD PLEASE we will continue the storyline by actually visiting it and killing stuff there, etc.

The crystal is alive...the crystal is dreaming...the Dalamud it's creation...

Garleans massive transport ship to travel to the new world (opening cutscene) destroyed by the bahamut like dragon...since that event the empire has been building...it's ready to try once more...to the MOOON!!!!

The echo the crystal entity talking to us...

By the way...we just popped out of the air when the game started...where do you all think we really are from? The crystal took us...to try to save this world from collapsing...

Look at the new logo for the Legacy members on the forum front page. Is it me or does Dalmud look man made and not like a moon. God I hope it's not something Death Star-like...

Having drawn that moon a few times im pretty convinced its man made. Either that or its a regular moon thats been outfitted with some kind of rigging. Theres strange spikes and an all-too-symmetrical feel to them. But then that raises the question: who built the moon??. Personally, Im hoping its a man-made (or whatever-made) satellite, from some long forgotten civilization. Epic +1

Of course it could just be that typical, totally whacked, acid trip FF design of a moon. Or giant space dragon egg.

Quest spoiler below:

In one of the GC quests (Alive for Maelstrom), Cid implies that Dalamud is in fact a massive relic of the ancient civilization that predated ours (I cannot for the life of me remember what it was called). Whether or not that is actually true is yet to be seen, but there is definitely evidence that Dalamud is, in fact, "... not a moon... a space station".

NOW my mind is blown

I guess it all depends where they take the story if Dalamud is actually man made. I just hope it's not something cheesy.

Perhaps Dalamud is made of CHHHHEEEESSSSSEEEE Gromit. (Do our American friends know Wallace and Gromet?)

Wallace and Gromet is actually quite the cult classic here in America. I have yet to meet someone who hasn't seen at least one (though I am much more partial to "The Wrong Trousers" myself).

My fave is A Grand Day Out, nostalgia it was the first made and the first I saw as a kid. But lets not derail this thread, lets discuss Dalamud made out of cheese and we are gonna build a rocket for cheese on crackers, because we are running low.

Even though I dont like cheese.
