#psynergy vortex

Okay so Isaac’s Golden Sun Event (GSE) was not the first. They occur every few millennia, and the vortexes aren’t unique either. Each GSE results in vortexes, and the vortexes aren’t actually malignant. They’re the world’s natural form of healing and growing. Each time there’s a new GSE the vortexes take more of the world, transferring these chunks away to somewhere else. This is why weyard is essentially a plateau: over the millennia, bits have been taken somewhere else. And each time a GSE happens, people get scared of the vortexes, but put up with them until a large mass is lost, causing extreme fear (last GSE and subsequent psynergy vortexes resulted in the loss of Anemos). That, coupled with the resurgence of alchemy, results in a sealing of alchemy. This causes death and decay of weyard, making the world shrink. The ultimate goal of the GSE is to eventually create a new weyard in a different world, possibly the moon, which is where it’s believed Anemos went. Those in Anemos saw that the world was decaying too much, so they sent Sheba in an effort to aid the world in bringing about another GSE, and since she did that, she fulfilled her destiny.
