    I personally think the mystery maiden is Altima or Deudelphon. All we know about them is that Gaius "killed" them and took their masks. However, since it's established that the Scions are the first to permanently kill Ascians and Gaius never learned our technique, what likely happened is they returned to the aetherial sea and later possessed a new body. As for Solution Nine and their role in it, the city and its people originated from the Twelfth shard, which was consumed in the Second Umbral Calamity prior to the Allagans. The Ascian/Mystery Maiden (or maybe even our friend Emet-Selch?) ruled an advanced empire on that shard and used its to sow chaos and tip the shard towards Lightning, like the Allagan or Garlean empires. When it came time for the Twelfth to be swallowed up into the Source, Solution Nine was built and used some sort of technology/spell to allow it to be transported to the Source intact, with its people digitally stored (the Lalafells running into the gate and the "Soul Storage" sign). I like to imagine they also built Solutions One through Eight, but those didn't make it.

    I would love to see an Ascian as some sort of parallel to how we saw Amon/Fandaniel, where they're aware of the Ancient World, and the Sundering, and who they were-- but that they both distinctly see themselves as who they are now, and that they love their world to the point where they're also opposed to the idea of a Rejoining. I would really like to see how a Sundered Ascian from one of the Reflections in particular would handle that, knowing they love their world and that the goal of these incredibly powerful, ancient entities is to effectively destroy it, and what that Ascian might be willing to do to preserve what they now see as their own people.

    all the ascians, non-unsundered, we defeated before we got the shards of memories in Shadowbringers have a _chance_ to resurface because that how they regained their memories as ancients in the first place. now that the stones came to us and subsequently destroyed along with Elidibus, there are no physical ways to reawaken the convocation of fourteen once the current memory holder is destroyed, barring any extreme circumstances like the case of Gaia/Loghrif. Once they are defeated now, theres a high probability of never seeing them resurface as their old self (meaning old Ascian Danny boy is long gone), not to say though they cant crop up as a non-ascian villain on some distant shard in the future but not with their powers and memories from their ancient days.

    even without Zodiarks passing, the fact that Eli, Emit, and Laha are dead, it would really severely limit their options as our interaction with Nabriales has shown. There is only some much meddling they can do without their unsundered leadership. Which is probably one reason Danny just decided to up and inhabit the partial Zodiark, considering rejoining was no longer an tangible option at that point.

  • @idminister

    the rejoining still has a point, the one that is told to newcomers and potential initates: rejoining shards into the source that as souls cycle they will be rejoined and the world restored in aether and the old souls (with new bodies and minds) in power the rejoining itself requires unbalancing the aether of the shard and source at the same time in manner that attracts them like opposing magnets; with simultaneous elemental calamities; zodiark was never mentioned as a requirement for rejoining the 'land' itself without the unsundered, the ancient civilization itself cannot be remade as all that history is lost the reason zodiark was first created is no longer present nor a need what has gone: resurrecting zodiark their 'one true god', and to subsequently revive the ancient civilization in both place and the people with massive blood sacrifice of the 'lesser' sentient beings what remains of this plan are the fragments of zodiark on the unjoined shards

I don’t mind their legacy coming up, but after so much of putting their history to rest in EW, even in the patches, it’s going to feel hollow. What if the maiden herself is something like a descendant of an Ascian? Like Emet-Selch in a past host millennia ago sired a daughter? And became what I assume is the memory in a data persona? Or whatever it is the Solution Nine inhabitants are.

    at this point, without the unsundered, the ascians are not technically the same ascians as before, they are all essentially free agent ancients doing their own bidding. since the term ascians really referred to them as an organization, and now that its defunct, I dont think Id call remaining sundered/remembered ancient as ascians.

    Halmarut is one that stands out to me. They specialized in living things - like giant cactuars. We saw that "do you even lift bro?" cactuar early on in the concept artwork, especially since so much of the new world is covered in jungle, it's certainly a possibility we could encounter them. Although, like others have said, I'd much rather they be on our side now that that the war between H&Z has come to a conclusion. It could very well be any of the ascians that we don't have a clear answer for, but Halmarut is my guess for now.

    Before watching the video, my answer would be Emmerololth, Scion of light and the figure at the top of the DT poster. After watching the video, I am just going to explain why it must be her. First, she's traditionally (FFXII) the Scion of Light (associated with healing and medicine). The white healer-ish figure at the top of the DT poster (and later shown as the mysterious maide) is mighty bright. Also in the trailer, the lalafell running through the stargate (in an era that's long ago) is wearing gear associated with Eureka (the camera makes it impossible to miss the unique shoes). This places the stargate, the yellow-hued techno city and its "pyramid of light", at the end of the third era and the fall of Allag. It also associates it with Eureka. Emmerololth is the only Ascian deeply associated with Eureka. In terms of her role, I suggest she's helped part of the Allagans escape the end of the third Era. We know they were space-faring, so some may have escaped on spaceships. Some may have survived underground. One plausible storyline would be that the spaceships attacking Tuliyolal are the first returnees from the Allagan diaspora. We might be made aware of their coming or at least of the threat further waves pose by those who survived in the city of light.

    I honestly really hope they dont appear at all unless its a tease to 8.0 in patches. Like you said the HvsZ arc is done. We need a break from ANYTHING to do with that story line. I really hope that will be the case for at least the main MSQ. No Ascians, no primals, no world ending force, no allagan tech. I just want to see something completely new, something that needs to be dealt with like another possible warning nations issue or heck even saw a theory that Sol9 will be people who survived a calamity underground and now that they threats of rejoinings are gone they plan on rising up with their better tech and being a worse threat then the Garlians. THAT would be fun.

  • @hashbrown9928

    This is a really interesting take! It would be really neat to see a completely fresh story with nary a mention of them throughout, and solution 9 being an emergency refuge could be something that’s well elaborated on with what they’ve shown of the raids (as an entertainment while stuck in solution 9). To be honest I’m also with you on the msq not having a completely earth shattering threat and mostly being an actual adventure through an as yet unknown continent :)

    Remaining ascians can't just "poof" and stop being alive just because "ARC" is ended. I personally still dig for Ancients and Allagan stuff - they both left a biiig mark on the world so wish to expansion without all that i guess achievable only if something like Shadowbringers came out.

    I think Pashtarot is a very likely presence. Their name was dropped in Myths of the Realm but I think that may be coincidence. I'm pretty sure the Yoshi P comment on Myths of the Realm related to Snoegeim's statements after the 3rd raid that she wanted to study the 12 from a perspective of reception theory. Likely we're going to see and hear a lot of things that show how the same 12 are viewed by cultures in Tural (I think these are likely the murals that Jesse Cox found on the media tour). Ascian wise, They're still out there and it would make less since if they didn't show up going forward. With Zodiark dealt with they will be out there trying to figure out how they fit in going forward. Personally I would rather not have them be adversarial and instead be more helpful. I've seen people theorize that Erenville is Halmarut (because of similar specialities) and he actually came from the "city of gold" (actually possible) initially but that would be a little too convenient. That and if we met an ascian by helping him catch marmots, nothing in this world can be taken seriously.

  • @hashbrown9928

    I think it would be super interesting for one of the main companions to wind up as an Ascian during our adventure in the new world, and that Erenville Halmarut theory is one I haven’t heard yet but definitely an interesting one! Considering Tural has been separate (mostly) for a long time it’ll be cool to see the difference in how they worship and actually who if any they worship from the twelve!
