Emet-Selch dropped a massive bombshell on what happened to the world of the Ascians. By his word, their world was peaceful and prosperous until one day. There was a calamitous event that occurred, which resulted in the Ascians offering sacrifices and prayers to summon their God: Zodiark. One, by the Ascians, was referred to as a "savior and might incarnate, one deserving gratitude and thankfulness."
However, some rebelled against His summoning and, as a result birthed Hydaelyn, the yang to Zodiark's yin. They fought for what felt like an eternity, and in the end, Hydaelyn would end up victorious over the mighty Ascian God and sunder the shard into 13 reflections.
Now I know why the Ascians want to bring about Rejoinings; through the destruction of a reflection, they would itch closer to their sundered world being rejoined.
What I WAS NOT EXPECTING was Emet-Selch outright saying Zodiark and Hydaelyn are flat-out primals. I was theorizing that they were outright deities outside of the primal bubble, but that was wrong. Alongside a lot of my theories about them.
What do I think this calamitous event was? I don't know. But it had to be something so destructive that it forced the Ascians to summon their God.
This is extremely interesting, and I am excited to see what transpires and what this calamitous event was that forced the Ascians to summon Zodiark. As a super big lore nerd, I am eating really well right now.
