Elder and Elderette could have been deep in Spira, plotting and planning, and it was finally the trembling of the world which made the living races (created by the gods) recognize the danger and call for aid to trap the beasts. Perhaps they were dormant...essentially they escaped the first binding, but were horribly wounded, burrowed deep into Spira, and went into hibernation to heal and recharge their power, actually parasitizing the newly living world. This would explain their disappearance and why they were hard to find, even Aeos light/sight doesn't pierce all the depths of the world.Another thought is maybe they dispersed, shattering their vile spirits into the lesser worms of the world (from earthworm to purple worm), so that they could not be seen as whole entities, while they watched the growing world, regained their strength and plotted in secret, since who thinks a lowly earthworm in a spy. When they thought they had a plan, they reformed, only to find that Aeos had been wise to them, and set in motion a series of events so that Elder thought he would have a chance to bring destruction - instead Aeos had the heroes of the day lay a trap with the chains of light, because he needed the worms in undispersed form to truly bind them.Not that I don't think him escaping from Carceri is a valid option, it just seems to go more against the grain of what we've heard before.Of course, frankly, I think the first gods should have captured the worms, put them in a celestial bucket, and used them to fish for far realm entities, but some people might think that's too much.</blockquote>
