Could you go into further detail regardig Lyra as Sibylla?

sibylla/sibyl of nymeia is like an umbrella/coined word that i use to describe lyra's in-game "job" and also her role as granted by nymeia and by extension the twelve. so essentially i'm calling her nymeia's prophetess/prophetess of nymeia or simply "the" prophetess because she is, as i like to say, the strongest astrologian in existence. and i feel like the title has kind of grown over time and probably became more "official" once the twelve vocally acknowledged it as her title, i was also thinking the role could kind of prophesized in a way in eorzea mythos but we'll see!

the specifics of this role are currently a bit shaky because i do need to rely on the twelve alliance raids, but as of pre-6.3 my ideas surrounding this role are mainly to be the "bridge" between these deities and the people. like lunafreya in xv is the bridge/messenger between the gods and people, she is the "oracle" much like lyra is like a "prophetess". lyra is able to offer wisdom and advice, readings, in general just an uplifting presence. power-wise, she also gains the ability to channel the powers of the heavens/the twelve so she also makes an amazing asset and ally, wol or non-wol. this may be edited over time of course but i've had this concept for awhile now.
