Are these suppose to be the Belle and Wise parents?

After the fight with the Creator's messenger in 2.5, we see a vision of Carole Arna. In this vision, she is talking to two individuals about the upcoming calamity that is going to befall Eridu, and about her lack of regret over the role she has to play in it.

I don't think I need to say it, but the two people she's talking to look practically identical to Belle and Wise, which doesn't make much sense given the context of the conversation and the timeline.

So, could these be their parents? The Proxy notes in this vision that the two seem to have an immense amount of Ether. Could they be a version of Belle and Wise's Etheric Others? Time travel shenanigans? Or just Miasma trickery?

What do you think?

Deadly Assault Showcase: M1W2 Grace, M6W5 Piper and M0W1 Remielle vs. Girtablullu Stagnant Aberrant - 30k

A small showcase featuring Remielle's standard options since I've seen a lot of new players ask for team recommendations, far from optimal but hopefully it serves as a small demonstration on how this team is played.

Pre-farm stat goals?

I know her 4pc is Thorned Rose but I'm unsure what her 2pc is or how much crit rate/def I should be aiming for, anyone have any good information on this?

Deadly Assault Showcase: M2W1 Zhao, M6W5 Nicole and M0W0 Astra vs. Scorching Horizon - 20k

If Zhao has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Zhao has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Zhao has only one fan then that is me. If Zhao has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is against Zhao, then I am against the world.

Deadly Assault Showcase: M1W2 Yanagi, M0W1 Nangong and M0W0 Yuzuha vs. Scorching Horizon - 40k

Another anomaly boss that Yanagi can pretty easily handle, this match up is pretty much completely neutral to Yanagi as the she doesn't really benefit from attribute advantage, boss mechanics or DA buffs, quite pleased with her performance regardless, hard to believe she is considered T2 with the likes of Burnice and Piper.

Norma made 2 very interesting statements in 2.7 that I've hardly seen any discussion on, so I wanted to talk about them a little.

https://preview.redd.it/ne8p3hr1jnxg1.png?width=1327&format=png&auto=webp&s=5a67938b47c2a15d882c46ea0f29f0283c5d2ac3

The first statement that stood out to me is in Norma's opening dialogue. She expresses concern that the energy cost of the operation would spiral without the proxies present, which is a strange thing to say, given that the 'operation' in question is just a casual home visit. This raises an obvious question: the energy cost of what, exactly? My initial assumption was that Norma either has an eccentric way of talking where she speaks like everything is a machine, or she could possibly be an intelligent construct and is referring to her own energy reserves.

The second statement is far more interesting and carries some potentially wild implications. Norma mentions something we already know, that the proxy has a rare Ether-sensitive constitution, but then quickly catches herself, as though being in New Eridu fundamentally changes her original diagnosis. This has obvious implications for the true nature of the proxy's constitution, but it also raises something stranger regarding Norma and Velina's origins. Not only does Norma appear to momentarily forget that they're currently in New Eridu, which is already odd on its own, but it also implies that there's a meaningful difference between being Ether-sensitive wherever they come from versus being Ether-sensitive in New Eridu.

I find these dialogues pretty interesting, as they could potentially hint at some fairly incredible ideas like time travel or even parallel dimensions. That said, the explanation could also be far more mundane than I'm giving it credit for, so I'm curious to hear how others are interpreting these lines.
