    Not sure if you've done the Wauqamekimeki (Crafter/gather) story quests yet...

    But, today I learned through the MIN/BTN one that there's a icy country above Othard past the burn, that's also near Illsabard called Kaguma (I probably butchered that). Where Viera live, the name of said tribe escapes me, and also hid during Garlemald's expansion. One of the NPCs tells that story during the lvl 93 portion of the quest. That's as far as I gotten though. I think this one of the areas Emet was talking about during his bucket list speech. Think this is the first time we get a couple names to the areas, so it's possible that could be a destination in a future expansion. We're due for another winter themed expansion.

    That quest line does later pull out a map and show where Kaguma is, and it’s in the Skatay Range in south-central Othard. We still don’t know for sure what’s in far northern Othard. The Role quest does introduce us to a Turali tribe that is vaguely Inuit coded.

    The crafting/gathering and role quests give us a whole lot of interesting worldbuilding in general, honestly.

    My favorite so far is the Fisher quest, which is just a Blue Mage story in disguise.

    The Carpenter/Weaver/Leatherworker one is a necessity for world-building lore for the various Turali groups in general.

    I really want to see S9 expanded on in the post-MSQ stories more than anything else. Even excluding the Arcadion, there are a lot of interesting story hooks. I'd like to see more from Oblivion, especially if Shale uncovers more from the data on Preservation and their world fusion technologies. I wonder if the Everkeep's other districts might get tied to either the next exploratory zone or deep dungeon. I also think that the dystopian cyberpunk setup with a 'soul economy' really makes for a fun world setting. I wasn't expecting to enjoy the area so much.

    I really like the airbikes and hope that Monom hooks us up with that rainbow-colored propulsion system on the A9. I would love to have a raid fight involving airbikes and other S9 vehicles, if there was a way to do this without making it too gimmicky. I also really hope that they start pumping out themed housing items including the new retainer bell, and I'd love to see the area opened up as a residential area in the future. It's probably single-handedly the best part of the expansion.

    If you squint, the thing he's working on looks almost like a cat with a toaster pastry body.
