So read an interesting lore blurb about my Coeurl Mount a few days ago.
"Native to the jungles of the Near East, coeurls were only recently introduced to Eorzea, brought over from faraway lands such as Thavnair by Ul'dahn nobles who thought to breed them as pets. Now, but a handful of skilled tamers living in recluse on the Pearl are said to be able to train them."
The main point of interest for me is "only recently." Because we have lore from the Sphairai quest (MNK Relic) that says one of the Monk legends of old lived and fought and trained with coeurls. The Coeurlfist. If coeurls were only recently introduced, than this monk of old had to have travelled to Thavnair.
This might lend support to the theory that Thavnair is an island located between Aldenard and Othard, out in the Sea of Jade.
