Cool, lorebook, that answers that for me, thanks.

(and it's not that I simply hammered through, it's that it was rather a while ago and I'm forgetful in my old age. Thanks for those who actually answered, and didn't dismiss an old man because old)

Not getting that Ardbert's group are from the First... that requires either completely missing, misunderstanding, or outright not believing all following facts:

1. Ardbert outright saying they were from the First after Xelphatol,
2. Ardbert himself reappearing in the First, connecting with you on that previous contact, and on recognizable things you encounter like Seto,
3. The Cardinal Virtues in your role quests of choice all being connected to Ardbert and being identical to the Warriors of Darkness,
4. The actual cutscene in Amh Araeng showing a flashback to Minfilia teleporting the crew back to the First to stop the Flood at Nabaath Araeng,
5. That final button at the end of Shadowbringers showing them reuniting as ghosts.

Missing one or two of those I understand; I admit I did forget that first speech until I started recording cutscenes for use in videos, and I literally just now had to check if that Amh Araeng cutscene existed because I wasn't sure I didn't somehow imagine it.

Points 3, 4, and 5 don't actually connect, if you've forgotten 1 and 2.

So, no, I didn't miss 3, 4, and 5. Those make a lovely self contained story about the warriors in the first, but don't actually explain anything about them being on the source. The playthrough I'm watching hasn't yet DONE Xelphatol, so it's just been years since I've seen that and forgot it.

As for #2, I guess I just didn't read it that way. I took it as he seemed familiar because he's a part of the combined warrior of light. It completely didn't click.


So yha, not trolling, just old.

CRS (Can't remember shit) is a terrible thing one comes across in old age. As I slowly creep up in the years myself I find I sometimes have that issue. S'all good. Btw if needs be the xephatol, one life for one world and the rest are rewatchable cutscenes with the Unending Journey in the inns or if you have it as a furniture item ^_^.
