As for the ending itself, it looks like we may meet the real Sphene in 7.2. Not the Sphene we know in 7.0 who was a AI copy but the actual Sphene herself since she does not know what the Living Memory is.

Mandatory 10 Char bleh!

The Real Sphene showing up has actually been hinted well back with both how we find the Original Otis in his mechanical body with his original soul/memories and encounter his duplicate in Living Memory later on as well as some garbled hints at the end of the Alexandria Dungeon that the original Sphene still existed (suggesting they'd successfully preserved her) and in this case it's possible the Original Sphene was stored in the system as a master backup incase things went sideways and who got released when the whole Meso System shutdown hence why when they shift to her PoV at the end of the MSQ she seems not only confused at her surroundings but seems to hint that she doesnt feel like her body is right either and likely could be in the same situation as the Original Otis was before his demise, her endless doppelganger that we fight was in fact a complete copy of her. As for her "evil twin" that shows up in Alexandria it's either the remains of the original system trying to reinitialise itself using a copy of sphene or another entity entirely using her form to take control of Alexandria for their own ends.
