These tribes tend to die out due to the aforementioned lack of women. " ]]
http://finalfantasy.wikia.com states this as does http://ffxivrealm.com - but the original miqo'te naming convention thread that is cited as the source doesn't mention that.
Anyone know if that's true or someone's pipedream that got shoe-horned in?
That's a quote from Fernehalwes back in the 1.0 lore forums. Here's the original post, and I also found a small compilation of Miqo'te lore from the forums.
