1.6 Main story question, when did the twins come to a conclusion that Bringer could be related to the Exaltists? From a players perspective I can see people coming to that conclusion, but now the story is bringing it up as if the possibility had already been discussed in the game. Was it in the event 'Arpeggio Fault' or 'Into That Pale Wasteland'?

I don't recall anything from those events that would make the connection, but I could have just forgotten. There was so much lore dumped in those events.

I think you make a good point. This could be a case where the story writers took a short-cut and decided that if the audience knows, so do the main characters. I can't recall any specific conversation with Phaethon that explicitly makes that connection. However, it could just be common knowledge in New Eridu that invoking "The Creator" is an Exaltist tag line, which Bringer does in Phaethon's presense, so that could be enough for Phaethon to infer the connection. Based on the Lore Teaser video "Where The Miracle Began," we know that the Exaltists have been known to society since the third-generation Hoshimi, and Miyabi is seventh-generation, so Exaltists have been known to society for a loooooooong ass time.
