This is just generally a request for more Duskwight lore in the hopes it adds a drop to the ocean of feedback the devs receive. Anything, really! I know a lot of the Duskwight are split up and live in different locations across Gridania and beyond, but I'd love to at least see a single Duskwight settlement at some point.
Like, how would more traditional Duskwight in the caves or restored portions of Gelmorra dress? What does a day look like for them? What jobs do they undertake? What god, if any, do they pray to?
It just kinda stinks that other races and city states get so much attention, while the Duskwight (and you know what, I'll throw the Keepers of the Moon in here too - we're in this together LOL) and Gridania have quite frankly not progressed one bit since ARR! Even the Endwalker Tank role quest only reiterated the status quo with the elementals.
That and the fact that I can count the number of relevant Duskwight NPCs on one single hand. It doesn't help that the biggest groups of Duskwight I've ever seen in game are always bandit enemies!
Seeing the Eldite in Dawntrail was a pleasant surprise because it occurred to me that I have literally never seen any kind of settlement with all grey tinted Elezen (even if the grey Eldite are never important to the plot, but that's another topic). It's just a shame the Eldite aren't Duskwight and are an entirely different culture of people who happen to share similar features.
At this point I don't even need in game content, I just want some information to work with for my WOL in an art or lore book or something ;_; It feels like I'm working with scraps! With how the plot is proceeding with the reflections, it's suffice to say I'm not expecting much (if at all) about the Duskwight in Evercold, but I'd love to be proven wrong :,D
