Do Eorzean children go to school? Do they have bedtime stories? I wonder what Eorzean children are scared of most - the behemoth under the bed? The cactuar in the cupboard?

I would love to hear some folklore and fairytales from Eorzea.

I think from 1.0 Grid Main quest line, there was someone look after them like the Carpenter Guild master. They just play and play all day...

but there is no physical school I think, that's why they need to join specific guild to learn stuffs after lv10 ^^::
I think at least one of them will be terrified about the elementals (that annoying trouble-maker's sister at least, she saw more stuffs...) @@:

But, you can go ask Professor Moose @ lore page. Bring him some cookies, and he'll tell you lots stories. :D

My question is where are all the Lalafell children? Eorzea needs a Star Onion Brigade!

I LOVE the star onion brigade! They were so cool!

/sends a silent salute to Keith
:<

Regarding the children:
Going to confess something.. I really hated those kids in 1.0 (still doing it but not that much anymore), because you had to do silly stuff with them during the Jobquests.
Carpenter was my highest craft back then and I expected some serious tasks during those quests but instead you had to babysit them and even 'play' Parlay D:
I thought they were annoying and awful because they played some dirty tricks on their teacher.
I'll never forget how he was standing separated in the Adventurer's guild, wearing a mask :(

I'd like to see the world fleshed out more with younglings for the races added, as well as more elderly characters and pets/domestic animals included in the city! There are "Lalafell children" but they look like adult Lalafells, which just makes me confused. Can't they just have a unique character model?

Also, I'm certain that, walking through Pearl Lane at night, you'd probably see a marmot scurry across the cobblestones in Ul'dah, or the occasional bird, squirrel or beetle in Gridania. I loved how in XI, people had rarabs as pets in Windust, you saw dhalmel farms, and the goblin shop in Jeuno had rarabs caged and hanging from the ceiling. These little details enhanced the world a lot. :)

If I were to have a pet from Eorzea, it would be...

You know, I'm yet to find any reference in-game to a school.
But then, this is hardly strange. The concept of universal education is a product of our late industrialisation period. In the late medieval ages, to which Eorzea is broadly comparable, an organised education was reserved for the wealthy.

The Acorn Orchard served more as an orphanage. Poor things.

The newest Eorzean History textbooks haven't been updated to recent years just yet. I plan on crashing the editorial office and adding a "Yarndolon" index right before it goes to print :3

The almighty Yarndolon descended upon Eorzea and brought yarn to all the Miqo'te in the realm and everyone instinctively knew; All is well.
