The "dream" at the beginning of 6.1 is, as far as we can tell, just a "Meanwhile, in the Void..." scene like we get repeatedly during Shadowbringers (and occasionally during Endwalker).

Our contact with Ardbert (who was nothing more than a soul at that point; Reaper Lady still has a body, just twisted by excess Astral / Dark aether) was the beginning of a rejoining, more like than not; he only does so again when going through with it, so I don't know where the idea that coming into contact with Voidsent Reaper Lady will rebalance her soul and mend her mangled body comes from (porxies can plausibly fix the former, the latter has yet to be remedied at any point through any method).

Zenos was able to steal our body due to our soul having been ripped out and stuffed into a random Garlean soldier by way of Aulus' technology and Zenos' mastery of the Echo allowing him to use the same powers as the Ascians to body surf. It only works for a limited time because Aulus' tech doesn't last forever, but.

Nobody attempted to possess Ardbert's corpse before Elidibus did so; presumably any of the Ancients could have done so before he rejoined with the PC, but there was never reason to. And given he was physically dead for a century his body should have been in a state of significant decay, but that's neither here nor there.

Rest is jumping to conclusions...

I'm not so sure about that. I think Raiya may actually be onto something here. Why else would we get the "Meanwhile...." cutscene after we doze off for seemingly no reason during Tataru's words? Seems like enough to build a speculation on to me.

Also, unless I'm mistaken we don't actually GET a "Meanwhile" subtitle for that particular scene which breaks the previously established mold already.

Same. I really don't want them to magically fix the Void in the patch content. That'd be a total waste of a good potential plotline. If they can make an expansion out of the The First (which had arguably LESS landmass to include) then can we not get one of The Thirteenth as well? Please and thank you, Yoshida and Square?
