It's a dragon the size of a city-state that destroyed the world in a little over two minutes. It also disappeared in a flash of light five years ago as soon as it arrived. Most would consider that more similar to a hurricane or a typhoon than an actual enemy. Granted some characters would have the ambition to ask the big questions (Misericorde) or hunt it down for vengeance (possibly you, or Dogberry, or Rock), but I don't see it being a common quest for the random townspeople of whatever-the-hell, if that makes sense. As for my character, Uther is a trained and tried dragoon and he'll definitely take a swing at Big B if he gets the chance, but he's more occupied with helping the world rebuild itself and asking/answering questions about Bahamut before blindly chasing him to the ends of the Hydaelyn. Hope that clarifies.
The idea of hunting down Bahamut is always going to be the ultimate goal, but not in the sense I would do it blindly. I watched the trailers. I saw the ginormous size of that monstrosity as it unleashed its fury. Lord help the fool who puts it in his mind he can do it by himself. I was simply implying where there's a will, there will always be a way and a probability of success in doing so regardless of how or the length of time. But in the mean time, I am on the same wave length you are in terms of focusing on helping the world to rebuild itself while taking care of the minor nuisances of the other forces that plague the lands. My toon might consider something like that to be along the lines of "This? This is just me testing all the different ways I plan to stick my lancer into that God forsaken beast's heart when I face him. What do you think of this method?" *Garlean squealing echos loudly around the area*
