Curious. I usually trust Eorzeapedia, but in this case I'd like to see a citation. Are there in fact Mamool Ja NPCs who reference Vana'diel in some way?
If there are, hey, great. It shows that other beings can cross over into Eorzea from other worlds.
It would also explain why there are so many FFXI and FFXII monsters suddenly running around.
And if that is so, then it's easy to extrapolate into something interesting.
Viera exist in FFXII. Mirrorknights, mantises, furry three-jawed crocodiles and other monsters exist in FFXII. Those same monsters now exist in FFXIV; therefore, precisely nothing prevents viera from showing up.
Fans who wanted viera as a new playable race could very well have a canon explanation for them.
Could.

"You know, I was God once."
"Yes, I saw. You were doing well until everyone died."
