[Speculation Discussion] Our Primal

[Warlock]

If it was Bahamut talking through Darnus in "to kill a Raven" he agrees completely in the concept of the world been cleaned up...so maybe that is why he retires and the world manages to be rebuilt in 5 years because he feels the cleaning has been done? i would hope that he nearly annihilated the Garlemalds same as how he attacked Limsa, besides they are the ones that took down one of Bahamut's strongest servants and possibly a good friend Midgarsormr.

What will be the Empire's reaction to Bahamut? he can't and wont be tamed he is a danger for them as it is for every living thing in the planet. I think the Empire will launch an attack to fight him and tire him up i don't know what you guys think?

EDIT:I just noticed too after watching again all the CGI trailers for ARR that Bahamut is wearing a golden armor and Odin wears armor too so i assume Elder Primals wear heavy armor?

that would mean he hates the lesser primals too interesting

The idea of Siren... it's just too mundane. There is already too much lore about the "sirens" running around for it to be the answer here, especially since all of that lore revolves around Limsa.

"The paragon warned me of the godless blessed."
If the "primal" Siren was indeed messing with us, the we would not be the godless blessed.

I'm going to propose an alternate theory: The Lodestone.
The crystal, heart and source of the aether, has woken us to protect her. Just like in many of the earlier FF games, notably III and V.

The second ARR trailer (the one made for fans, not the hollywood one) tells us to "heed the crystal's call."

EDIT: Dropping this screencap here.

It will be interesting to see which side the new Primals choose Siren,Fenrir,Leviathan,Shiva,Cait Sith and Odin.Will they be against Bahamut? or they will serve him?

I would love to know if Yoshi-P has a set number of Primes he will add or the list will keep getting bigger

[Syrokko]

This is slightly off-topic (read: very), but...
With all those new train-tracks in Eorzea, I would love to see Doomtrain come and take us away into some awesome dungeon or something.

In any case, thread contains many interesting reads =]

If I had to bet on which Primal would align themselves with the players, I'd have to go with Alexander.

[Rau]

I wonder if each of the races have their own primal.

Carbuncle Prime returns as the marmot's primal!!!

I read somewhere that Azeyma the Warden is worshiped predominately by Seeker of the Sun Miqo'te. The Twelve and the Primals both require a considerable amount of Aether to sustain, so it's possible that they are the 5-races' equivalent to the Primals. I think one possible difference is that we aren't driven to bring them into being except in dire circumstances, whereas the sylphs claim that Primals have a tendency to make the Beastmen crazy. Then again, it's possible we've been compelled to call them out all along, but never knew the methods.
