For Ashelia's part, Ramza seemed much too forthcoming and, for lack of a better word, true to be lying. There is something else amiss here.

"Eighteen generations?" She definitely would have heard of them in that case. "Ivalice is no kingdom. It is a region made up of Valendia, Ordalia and Kerwon, among others." Surely someone who seemed as educated as Ramza would know that. "There is no Kingdom of Ivalice; such a claim is impossible. The Archadian Empire may have attempted to carve out such a legacy for itself, but it was turned back at Rabanastre - at Dalmasca. I am the Lady Ashelia B'nargin of House Dalmcasca, Queen of Dalmasca and Dowager Queen of Nabradia." She didn't usually like to add that unless she was trying to impress Biggs, Wedge or Jessie, but given Ramza's claims, she felt compelled to.
