Well, of course Collab Monsters (some of the Stories and Explore exclusive Monsters) Collab Equipment (Horizon Zero Dawn and tons of other stuff from every MH Game) and April Fools (Frontier and MHO) aren't counted as part of the lore.

However... Isn't kinda strange that this Abyssal Lagia, beside being on land, is considerably smaller?
