Yes until the timer is up. I did this with one of the HW dungeons

You can also interact with the book or whatever and skip over all the text. This saves it to your log so when the dungeon's over, you can read it from your chat log instead of running back through the dungeon.

The dungeon on mis curious with is The Aery. There are allagan pieces in there. The great question is why?

Did it unsynched and got it the first time), and after a bit I would see the notification "5 minutes remaining to complete the duty".Quote:

From the time the dungeon is completed you have 5 minutes to exit the instance.
The timer replaces the duty timer as well. But 5 minutes is more than enough time to go back and grab treasure chests, take screenshots, read lore interactables, or grab a few missed mobs.
I love to grab extra loot when everyone else has left. No Competition and free loot. (I think I got some rare drops that way too.) -
10-13-2015, 06:34 PMMorningstar1337Dalamud debris, close proximity to Axys Lla or artifacts leftover from Attempts of the Allag to do to Dravania what they did to Meracidya are the most likely reasonsQuote:

It's possible that it's 1 Astral Tech considering it's in Nidhogg's layer. With The Allagan being 3rd Astral I bet they based alot of their tech on 1st Astral Technology like the infamous Eye of Sabik that the Ascians gave them seemingly with out explaining how it worked or where it came from.

It’s become a bit of a rumor that, in the Aery, you can see what look like debris of Allagan restraints. But that just blew off of Dalamud in the Seventh Calamity. It’s an interesting fate that one of the things that once bound Bahamut would end up here, isn’t it?

The Library, last book before boss. - "I'VE MADE A MISTAKE."
I had a good giggle at that one. -

At first I thought it had to do with that other boss in Haukke Manor but the lore read otherwise. So, when or where did this interestingly bad idea occurred is still a mystery since the first journal talked about how he took a fresh corpse to act as a body for a void sent.. That sounds a little like what that crazy chick tried for her fiancé in Tam-Tara. But with less "H" overtone at the end.Quote:

10-14-2015, 05:16 PMMorningstar1337He started the Dragonsong War as an eternal revenge plot for that Ishgard did to him and Ratatoskr, I wouldn't put it past him to hate humanity for what the Allags did to Bahamut and Tiamat as well.Quote:
