What are your crazy theories after Endwalker

[Alleluia]

There is a dimensional barrier separating the Source and shards, presumably created by Hydaelyn during the Sundering. If killing Zodiark dissolved his barrier around the star, it's possible killing Hydaelyn also dissolved the barrier between worlds. If that was the case, I'd guess the most pressing issue would be the Thirteenth and the Voidsent.

Very true. They'd have a vastly greater supply of lifestream aether to nom on and they'd do it. Of course, it also might make it easier to travel there (and any other shards) and infuse the planet with some umbral light from elsewhere to fix it, if all the lifestreams are able to connect freely now. Heck, that might be how Y'shtola manages travel now.

That is a very good point, actually. Although the Void already has diminished barriers, hence the fact that it's possible for minor Voidsent to pass between the worlds in some cases, if the barriers were of her creation, and they were to fray, it could mean even more powerful Voidsent could readily pass between the worlds as opposed to requiring a voidgate, amongst other things. They did seed a storyline for its potential rehabilitation into the final quest for the role quests for SHB, so a future visit there is likely. There would be the small matter of the RPR avatar but I am sure that can be dealt with rather easily...

If anything, I should hope the extreme lack of story for WoL's Avatar could be related to a future Void expansion. A bit like how Heavensward drastically expanded on the lore behind Dragoon.

Lol the Eric talk reminds me of my static back in Heavensward elongating Thordan's name to ThorDaniel during Thordan Extreme.

Hmm, crazy theories hmm...

The dev team writers are going to use the Sundered Ascians still left on the table, perhaps with some of the souls freed via Zodiark to have us fight an Ascian Possessed Dragon. So like, Azdaja but amped up by having conscious Ascians fused into her? Maybe this will give us a Negative version of Estinien, an antagonist with a similar power draw? And it'll kill Tiamat, maybe.

We'll get Gaia to come to the Source to come be a mainline protagonist, maybe also Ryne after Y'shtola finds out how to go get to riding Runar.

We're never going to Corvos, because Labyrinthos is said to be modelled off of it. But be prepared to hear about Corvos at least 52 more times.

Plot twist, after mentioning how beautiful and idyllic it is the 53rd time, we say F it and just actually go there for a well deserved holiday/"Beach Episode" only to find it a smoldering ruin, courtesy of an Ascian-possessed dragon.

Urianger complains that this was not what was promised in the brochure.

*Chef's Kiss* Perfection!

On the "noctis job" thing: Venat just seemed like she was job changing in combat, to me. And if they let us do that, it'll be only in very specific settings. Otherwise, I'd think that's gonna be a power that stays with the ancients.

Wouldn't be opposed to a job that involves teleporting after my weapon, though. That was fun.

[Theodric]

With Reaper having been introduced, a trip to the Thirteenth would be particularly interesting. Plenty of room for some cool aesthetics. Maybe some inspiration from the likes of Devil May Cry, too!

[Blindheart]

Zenos is not dead or his reaper voidsent is not. They should transform into Zeromous. Him being not dead maybe finds/recruits others like him that can transcend death and we get our 4 elemental fiends just to cap off the FFIV theme of the expansion.

Also if dynamis can transform your despair into a blasphemy... what do other emotions change you into? Very much plot to explore. Maybe this is how we get the 4 fiends. Each one is a different emotional range.
