Thanks for the post Ferne and thanks Anonymoose for the thread, Catapult, Warlock, Zenaku and others who have gathered information and posted things that brought up great discussion topics. Now we can sit and discuss what happened to the male Elezen, maybe the Miqo really did 'grow weary of the company' and mpk'd him.

What I have been allowed to say is, the Sanguine Sirens are different from the sirens which are mentioned in the blacksmith/armorer class quests, and both are different from Siren of Final Fantasies past (who has not been mentioned in-game). And then there's the provisional artwork that was recently released...

So wait, does this mean there is no Siren primal? Well, that remains to be seen.

Wonder which artwork is in question.

Oh well, now to watch Cutscenes and look for shadowless people.

Travanchet is a given... At first he appears to be nothing more than a regular serpent reaver (a member of the woken races who is truly allied with the sahagin), but it becomes clear pretty quick that this guy's got far darker allegiances. The thing is... he's clearly shadowless, travels via the starshower, and absorbed The Key into his chest using the Final Fantasy signature black and purple "dark magic." He's already been outed... but could there be others? O.O

Ohhh, I love any mystery where the baddies blend in; it always leads to scenarios that make you question whether it's really the outsiders you have to worry about in the first place, or if the people on your own side are just as bad...

Pulled this out of my Limsa character's screenshots. The rest of the cutscene absolutely has shadows running.



I trawled through all my Ul'dah GC screens as well, but no-one there seems to be missing their shadow.

Edit: Great posts, Fern. Very interesting points. I'm interested in seeing how the story is presented in ARR.... it was a major gripe of mine that in 1.0, it was so unclear as to what was where, whose memory you were in, and when it all was in relation to 1572 6(A). In my view, not much point in telling a good story, even one that is designed to keep dripping information and reveals out, if it's being obfuscated by the story telling method itself.
