Who are those Black/Green Roegadyn players in Limsa at Sargatanas server ?

The Lalafell King dispatches his monsters from half the world away. They're clumsy beasts, and the piled debris is slippery.

We Roegadyn do what we were trained to do, what we were bred to do, what we were born to do. No prisoners. No mercy.

Carry stacks of crates?

They're now in Balmung's Quicksand!

We send the shattered weapons and the fragile armor back to the Lalafell King's feet. The Lalafell King is displeased with his generals... He disciplines them.

Wasn't me. I don't dance. I only work out. Seems like they weren't well received in Balmung. Most people were blacklisting them and that's saying something when they don't blacklist people like Maht.

The Lalafell Warrior Elite... they fail our Captain's test. And the Lalafell King who fancies himself a god, feels a very mortal chill crawl up his spine.

Blacklisted just for dancing? Hmm. People have no taste.

Nah not for dancing. One of them called Weebpolice LT was pretty much saying the same things as PeaTear on Shout every 20 seconds. They didn't take kindly to it and blocked him. I thought the whole thing was kinda funny to watch but it did get pretty old hat quickly.

We march. For our lands, for our families, for our freedoms, we march.

"Goodbye my love." The Roegadyn Captain doesn't say it. There is no room for softness... not in Limsa Lominsa. No place for weakness. Only the hard and strong may call themselves Roegadyn. Only the hard, only the strong.

Lominsans, citizen-soldiers, freed slaves, brave Roegadyn, all. Brothers, fathers, sons... we march. For honor's sake, for duty's sake, for glory's sake, we march.

The world will know that free Roegadyn stood against the Lalafell Empire, that few stood against many, and before this war was over, even a Sultana can bleed.

Just some weirdo with a weird hobby.

What makes this Lalafell sympathizer think he can speak among men?

The recruiting isn't going so well in Balmung eh PeaTear?

Not quite. To compensate for that, we recently have started admitting Lalafells to our ranks, citizen. Lalafells who join the Weeaboo Police Department are given the rank of "cannon fodder" and may not hold a rank higher than such.

And now, as then, it is not fear that grips the Roegadyn, only restlessness. A heightened sense of things. The seaborn breeze, coolly, kissing the sweat at his chest and neck.

The seaborne breeze sounds like a creep and I'd have filed a restraining order against it.

That's very progressive of you to give potatoes jobs.

Thanks for your support, citizen. Everything one could ever desire, every happiness one can imagine, every pleasure one's fellows and the Lalafell Empire have denied them, I will grant them. For I am kind.

The steady breathing of the Roegadyn Wall at the Captain's back, ready to die for him without a moment's pause. Everyone of them ready, to die...

Dying well is easy, it only takes a moment of courage. It's living well that I couldn't do. What's death compared to that?

Death is lighter than a feather, duty heavier than a mountain.

[[鴻毛 has the furigana こうもう so yep, feather]]

From 陸海軍軍人に賜はりたる勅諭 the pledge that the Japanese Army and Navy had to sign.

Having it translated it looks like The Soldiers Creed....except way more wordy.

His helmet was stifling. It narrowed his vision, and he must see far. His shield was heavy. It threw the Roegadyn Captain off balance, and his target is far away.

Have you seen a Lalafell sprint? You think they are far away...and then they are on top of you.

Seeing a Lalafell Thunderclap is adorable though...

GIVE ME YOUR KNEES!

The Lalafells that have joined our ranks have given us ample insight into their hand-to-hand combative techniques, citizen. Defenses against the Lalafell menace are better than ever!

The old ones say we Roegadyn are descended from the gods themselves. The bold Roegadyn Captain gives testament to our bloodline. His roar is long and loud.

If you are still in Balmung tonight I might check how your wall is going.

Erm, he's called the Talekeeper™.

"Remember us." As simple an order as a Roegadyn can give. "Remember why we died." For the Roegadyn Captain didn't wish tribute or song.

So, going down the path the crystal braves went, eh? I guess even the police isn't beyond infiltration and corruption.

Who woulda thought Roes could be as gullible as Alphinaud... *sigh*

No monuments, no poems of war and valour. His wish was simple: "Remember us," he said to me. That was his hope.

*breaths heavily*
...nuh uh!
*runs away*
*trips on inhaler*

Should any free soul come across that place, in all the countless centuries yet to be, may all our voices whisper to you from the ageless stones: Go tell the Eorzeans, passerby, that here, by Lominsan law, we lie.
