After getting a second archon egg, I decided to go ahead and trade them in to the npc to get my one cap. Then I tried to go to grid with an archon egg and all 3 elemental eggs and tried to initiate the quest again, but nothing happened (It gave me the "you cannot recieve an archon egg" or whatever the correct wording is, thing.)

If you talk to the girl in Grid though, she mentions something about 10+2 or whatever and the gods or something (I did this earlier so I dont remember her words exactly), so that's 12 (I know math =D), and if you count the eggs, there are 12, so there must be some correlation, just I couldn't exactly find any hints or anything in her words..
