when did Mithra's come to windy? and have they and taru always been friends?

[Infidi]

Won't spoil it but it tells how mithra gained land in windy; in the wings of the goddess windy quest line.

You know there is one other thing I would like to know...

By releasing Pixies at the Fay Spring in Graubeg [S], we alter our present (the future) in the sense that they now exists where as before they were extinct... So, my question is this.

How come we can't alter anything else? I like playing Time Lord!

Indeed.... since I assume alot of people stopped WoTG stuff.... why aren't Ladybugs and Rafflesia in the present now that they aren't being killed anymore?

It's different I think. The normal events that happened before we could travel in time still happened even after we stopped, so they're still extinct for the same reason before we could use the Maws. Whatever reason that may be. If we did keep killing them, then they would just become extinct a lot sooner.

It's different for Pixies because we were rescuing them rather than killing them. So I suppose we could assume that the monster who was carrying the Bottled Pixie was going to pull a Legend of Zelda and release it when it died in the midst of the war. Thus killing the Pixie? Which is why they were extinct before we messed with time.

I hope that all made sense, it's my theory and I'm sticking to it!

Actually there is a quest that explains ladybugs going extinct: Atelloune's Lament. If you recall, Atelloune was the assistant to famed Vana'delian biologist Clavauert B Chanoix (whom I happen to LOATHE because of his stupid Assault.)

It's a cover-up. You're the only person who is supposed to know they are dead. They are always "unavailable" (because they are dead).

Spoilers here~

Well, you're really not the *only* one. But, in order to prevent any public panic, Esha'ntarl (who's REALLY in charge now) has ordered the cover-up of their deaths.

The rank-and-file in Jueno (probably even Wolfgang, the head of the Jeunoan Military) do not even know about Kam'lanaut and Eald'narche, the Armathrwn Society is keeping everyone in the dark about what the pair did and were planning on doing. Fortunately, Esha'ntarl is a pretty nice person, so things there should be a lot less evil.

when did Mithra's come to windy? and have they and taru always been friends?

Mithran Mercenaries were brought to Windurst to help during the Crystal War since the Tarutaru were so few in number and Cardians could only do so much. To honor their service and sacrifice, the Star Sybill gave them the Mithran Groves area of Windurst Woods and seats on the Parliament of Patriarchs.

The Mithra and Tarutaru had been allies long before the war, the Mithran Pirates and Windurst Navy conspired for years to block Bastok and Tavnazia from using shipping routes to the South and East through the Pamtam Straits until Bastok and Tavnazia joined together and waged the Elshimo Naval Battle.

On the subject of Kam'lanaut and Eald'narche...

They're only dead until you change allegiance and do the rank 4 missions again.

I think we all know what the biggest mystery is, we're just all too afraid to say it...


What do our Moogles really do while we're out? I mean all that time they're alone... no one ever knows.

The MHMU is part of a massive conspiracy to use adventurers as vessels for power. The modern adventurer system, which we are all a part of, allows us to gain power swiftly, but the moogles hold all the strings and can change this at any time. And depriving us of our levels is only part of their plan, not only will they render the nations powerless, but they will take that power unto themselves.

So, a lot of their time is spent filing reports on our actions to the MHMU and receiving correspondence on the latest aspects of the conspiracy. Thankfully though, moogles have grown attached to us over the years, and for the past decade or so their plan has been that it's far more useful to work with us than to stage a coup. But, should we ever decide to return to our mistrust of them (They ARE beastmen after all, and mankind once distrusted the furry little devils), they will not hesitate to take over and show us who's holding all the cards.

Oh, yes, and also I once came back sooner than expected and found my moogle on top of one of my party members' moogles. Let's just say I found out for sure she was female that day, and things have been a little awkward since.
