Show Content Spoiler ...Gaius talks to Cid about his father, and comments about how the Meteor project consumed him. He specifically mentions that Cid's father originally didn't want to proceed and spoke to Gaius about that, but "by the time he realized his error, it was too late. Meteor already had him in its thrall." (Praetorium Cutscene 2) Between that and the Nael conversation (and battle, where he uses Megaflare -- quite possibly a Primal granted power), I would argue that Bahamut definitely can temper. As for the Ascians, there's a bit of that at the end of the MSQ, too. Show Content Spoiler First, there's Lahabrea's commentary at the end of Praetorium that there's a dangerous imbalance that only summoning his god can fix and that Hydaelyn is the aberration. After the credits roll, Lahabrea and many Ascians are scheming. They specifically call out to their god, Zodiark. Additionally, you see an Echo vision of a massive dark crystal. When you take all of that together along with the "When there is light, there is always darkness" text right after the credits, I'm very much of the opinion that the Ascians are claimed warriors of Zodiark, the dark crystal -- the mirror opposite to the claimed warriors of Hydaelyn, the crystal of light. Since one seems to only be able to be claimed by one power, I would assume they too can't be tempered. Also, in the MSQ, Lahabrea mentions that their objective is to sow mass chaos to open the way for their god. Summoning Bahamut is one way; unleashing the dark magic Ultima on the world through the charged Eye of Sabik in Ultima Weapon is another. They've got a lot of irons in the fire, it seems.
