Garleans still cannot use magic even when they come to Eorzea. They're surrounded by lands that utilize magic, and as they expand and conquer these lands for their own, they still cannot cast spells. The inability to use magic is obviously a genetic trait.Ahh what I meant by this is as they adapted to their enviorment, they adapted for the long term, making their bodies adjusted to low aether and unable to use high enough amounts to cast magic. If a garlean were to come to Eorzea, that fact they cannot use high amounts of aether would not change and if it were definitely not for at least a few generations of living there and adapting to the environment.
Also I am very happy for the reponses Liadan gave and for the input everyone else has given. I learned a lot about what is in the game and what is majorly unexplained :3 While I do wish we could work together to set some guidelines I guess it truly is impossible and while slightly disheartened I expected it. I still appreciate everyones responses. <3
