okay cooking up a theory on where a fs2 might have gone,, under the cut cuz it got a bit long LMAO
first of all. the first tanta had 7 buddies (other tantas?). we know athia had 4 tantas so presumably the other 3 were rheddig. backed up pretty well by the DLC.
second of all. she also writes that the rheddah were allies before they set the demon (sussy) on athia, the first time around.
third. cipal's mausoleum archive entry makes an off hand reference to it being a) older than cipal itself and b) believed to be where the souls of all athian souls go to rest (tho no one knows where that belief came from!).
so: before the first tanta formed athia as four realms with four tantas, athia was friends with the rheddig and they both had tantas leading them in some capacity. theres very little (readable) writing down around this time - the archives even note that the athian script was devised by the first tantas. presumably little to no writing happened before this - at the very least nothing that survived y'know, everything.
theory: this belief is from the rheddah, but was never written down, possibly because of everything that happened with susurrus and possibly because of general (presumed) hatred of the rheddig for unleashing him (1st time). and, going out on a limb, its related to that machine in visoria that has an archive entry of an "error" occuring around when susurrus gets released in the gloaming (2nd time).
i really think the second game would have gone into rheddah and said yes, we all used to be under a united banner and/or the rheddah were working under a larger technological power.
god just,,, the lore that there wouldve been 😭🫠
