Actually, the Crystal Tower is something else entirely, not the piece of Dalamud that stuck in the ground.

Spoilered because, well.. ...it's kind of spoilerish? I guess.

Show Content
SpoilerIt's actually the tomb of the Allagan Empire's first Emperor, Xandes, and was located deep beneath the earth to the northeast of Mor Dhona. It was mentioned during the Monk storyline in 1.0.

Direct quote: "I have studied these waves in great detail, and discovered that they can be used to reconstruct an image of their source. And I believe their source is a tower! An enormous, vast, gigantic, underground tower! Do you not see? <sigh> Of course you don't... It could only be the lost tomb of Xandes─the first emperor of Allag of whom I spoke mere moments ago. But wait, there it more to tell! You see, it is impossible that a normal building, however large, could release so much ethereal energy. An immense crystal on the other hand─that most certainly could. Putting these observations together, I had no choice but to conclude that the ancients' seemingly fanciful references to the tomb being wrought of crystal were not so fanciful after all!"

Remember that concept art of the Aetheryte crystals floating away? Same concept. Ripped right out of the ground.

The key, on the other hand, is supposedly going to have a significant part in the 2.0 storyline, and my personal bet is it on it being located within Bahamut's Labyrinth. Just my two cents, though. Might be best to be cautious of tying a character to such a potentially volatile piece of lore. We just don't know what happened to it, where it currently is, what surrounds it, or what it even is to begin with. Could be incredibly dangerous, in an impossible to reach place, etc.
