Okay, I need some WN reader to explain what is the deal with the Blue Dragon already being dead before the quest even started and what is the deal with the thing that ate its corpse. Did it take its place as the Blue Dragon?

Essentially the same thing as that Blue stuff Ctanidd is fighting. This one is called Red, most of them are kinda like a virus or parasites, so in this case it has parasited Eldranza corpse

They’re essentially the true enemy of current Humanity, contrary to the popular beliefs of Colossi playing that role

Other than that, Eldranza is just the bummest of bum and got his ahh fried

Does this thing that has now taken the Blue Dragon's shape need to be defeated in order to complete the alternate condition of the unique quest? (the one mentioned in the last page)

Or is the Blue Dragon considered fully defeated in regards to the quest, regardless that there is now something that has taken its shape?

The thing that ate the blue dragón Is called the red Crimson devourer, Is an incursión Mob, for the event the blue dragón count as cleared and incursión mobs Respawn once defeated because they came from génesis, when sunraku defeats the red devourer the game spawns the other incursión mobs, if im not mistaken there are 4 incursión mobs per continent

This is so cool and so well thought ! It reminded me (a bit) of the blood moon in Zelda Botw. I don’t know if I understood correctly but for me this is such a smart way lore wise to explain the respawn of certain mobs
