wheres the really big tree in the center? =P
The quote at the bottom of the Race page on the NA FFXIV site reads:
Besides the hyphen, the naming scheme seems identical."Never did we expect to encounter such diverse and so wealthy a people! And so very tall!"
- from the Travel Logs of a Lalafell, Jajariku Nanariku.
If you're trying to suggest the information is outdated, it just says that they inhabited, past tense, islands. In the same way that every race other than the Elezen came from somewhere outside of Eorzea, the Lalafell came to the area and chose a specific place to reside once there. Even if that isn't so, islands CAN have plains and dunes.
At any rate, I don't see any other naming conventions represented, so it's the best thing to go on.
Anyone captured the map from the recent event?
A map was posted somewhere in the bloated mass that is the alpha/beta thread. I think it was in japanese though.
Well, I can't post URLs yet (but I can edit since this is my 10th), but here's a picture that shows the Arcanist's Guild along with the guns symbol for what someone said was the Muskateer's Guild:
