The character you work with in the SMN story is a Conjurer herself, and your base of operations is in Gridania, after all, so it's possible my character could have known her while learning Conjury and then she called on her after learning of her defeat of the primals seeing as how that's a prerequisite to being able to summon.
The character you work with is kind of implied to either be a cohort of Y'shtola (sp?) or related to her.
Conjury really isn't...exactly...calling on elemental aether. Â Conjury is accessing a whole different brand of magic called Succor, but only using a small part of it.
Summoning is a tough job to portray in RP because of the pre-requisite of defeating each primal you summon.
You can play whatever you want, however you want.
