Can we get some lore on Hunberct Longhaft please?

So I just finished this Moogle delivery quest, immediately had to google Hunberct Longhaft to see if there was more, and found this thread.

Whoever came up with this larger-than-life ode to manhood should have a monument erected in their honour. Please further expand the tale of the Longhaft in future updates.

So . . . when are we going to find out about Hunberct's sister/cousin/rival from training, Gudruna Deepcanyon?

An indefatigable warrior renowned for her tight grip on the push and pull of battle.

No opponent can withstand the firmness and depth of her strategy.

"She's a slick one, that Deepcanyon", they say.

This is too perfect, you genuinely put a smile on my face with that one XD Perfect level of innuendo to match

Ugh, no please!

I'd rather there be more focus on women npc with some self-respect

So a man with multiple lever operators is "manly," but a woman who chooses to operate multiple levers lacks self-respect.

Got it. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

"Handling the Lever"
---------------------------------
Hunbercht Longhaft Endless!
Hunbercht Longhaft Send us!
Hunbercht Longhaft Breathless!
Hunbercht Longhaft Deathless!

Hunbercht Longhaft Restless!
Hunbercht Longhaft Test us!
Hunbercht Longhaft Tend us!
Hunbercht Longhaft Mend us!

Drifting in the realm beyond all knowing
Forsaken, shedding tears of glass
Now tumbling from the boundless heavens, taken
White moondrops, burning indigo

Hunbercht Longhaft Endless!
Hunbercht Longhaft Send us!
Hunbercht Longhaft Breathless!
Hunbercht Longhaft Deathless!

Hunbercht Longhaft Restless!
Hunbercht Longhaft Test us!
Hunbercht Longhaft Bend us!
Hunbercht Longhaft Rend us!

Hunbercht Longhaft Vengeance!
Hunbercht Longhaft Penance!
Hunbercht Longhaft Send us!
Hunbercht Longhaft End us!

Silence from the knife that softly severs
Mistaken for an unsung prayer
Now rising from the soundless Deep. Awaken
White fury, blinding indigo

Swell ye seas of old, Hunbercht Longhaft
Surging tides grow bold, Hunbercht
Seething currents whorl, Hunbercht Longhaft
To swallow up the "world", Hunbercht
---------------------------------

Your mind is now <kupo!>

I expect a rendition of this once you acquire the Troupe stage: A large portable stage suitable for the performance of concertos or large-scale productions of literary masterpieces such as the BALLAD OF LONGHAFT.

Over Discord will be fine.

A worthy necro-bump.
/warms up

Longshaft is to this day one of my favourite NPCS. I love his lever, and I want more!

I need an update from Fernhalwes on the great lever.. :P
