Building a better Alphinaud

Frankly after the disbandment of the Scions at the end of EW...that should have been it. New Adventure means new groups to roam with. But no...less than 5 minutes later it's "Hey we should get the gang back together again".

Delete them all I say. Maybe not Estinien. He keeps it real.

This is a misconception but it's understandable since 6.1 didn't make this more clear. It's been several months after 6.0 before 6.1 happens. We've been away from our friends and they've been off doing their own things. Unfortunately, they only made this clear in Live Letters and interviews so it's one piece I think 6.1 could have portrayed a lot more effectively. The Scions were outwardly disbanding as far as the world knew, but they were all ready at a moment's notice to come together again if an issue came up that needed them. Telling the world they disbanded just means they won't be automatically called upon as an organization and everyone's got to solve their own issues for once.

They understand that and accept it. What they and some others wanted was for us to do all of 6.1 + with all new people. Or some of the new people we met in 6.0 even if it wouldn't make sense. Estinien bought the map, we promised G'Raha an adventure, knew Y'shtola was looking into a way to shard travel and Krile told us Urianger was interested. I'm not sure who they'd want to replace those or how you'd get new never been seen people to go with us. I know many are tired of the Scions, but to expect most likely out of the blue all new companions is kind of silly.
