Thank you so much for the opportunity, Kate!
I had an inquiry about both the Aitiascope and Palace of the Dead as narrative anchors for FFXIV's worldbuilding. They are quite similar, in housing lost souls that haven't returned to the star, and we even see familiar key NPCs in both zones.

Though, I was wondering: is there some sort of connection between both zones? I understand we haven't had much to explore with the Twelveswood, but it'd be great to have some confirmation as this curious region has remained shrouded in mystery.

Endwalker's themes have explored the depths of a soul and the experiences tied to morality, so I'm excited to see what more can be said about the realms that transcend both!
