between the zodiac braves story being presented as a long lost true record of a well known story (the framing device that FFT uses except with a historical record)

and the whole thing about subversive art getting around censorship in this fascist regime

I don't know where the plot of ShB goes (I accepted the first quest but have not started it) but I feel like where I want the game to go during or after that is to the empire itself

between maximus and gaius and the increased focus on the empire as an actual functional thing in this world and not just this omnipresent evil force

a Garlemald expansion just kind of feels like what we might be building up to?

but again I know nothing about the ShB plot
