Rising Event and Looking Back

Playing through the Rising event this time around really did make me look back to how my adventure started in this beautiful game.

I had started this game at the beginning of Heavensward and barely to could keep myself away from it. From it's story, from the music, from the friends I had made that would last a lifetime.

For all the good times and the hardships, FFXIV had been there for me. A real place I can escape to and feel like a Hero in a fairy tale.

And so, just taking the time to thank the Devs, thank the GMs, thank anyone who helps contribute to this amazing game, and especially thank Yoshi-P for his kindess, his compassion and his love for this game.

And so, happy Rising event everybody and I hope this event helped you look back to when you were a humble adventurer starting this game and your journey to becoming a Warrior of Light (Or Darkness now hahahaha)

So to commemorate this all, if any of you wanna share a story or a screenshot that shows your humble beginnings to who you are now, I invite you all to share XD
Even if you dont have old screenshots, make a glam that you may remember having back in the day and compare it to how you look now

I don't quite have a screenshot showing my evolution over my time in FFXIV, having started when Alexander Midas was just dropping, but I do have the very first screenshot I ever took and one of the most recent ones I took (the first one was when I didn't know how gpose worked, lol) :
