Purple Aetheryte: What is it?

So i have been exploring lately and just come across the purple atheryte crystal in the coerthas in a cave. What is it for? All it says is "The aetheryte emits a dull light..." when i examine it.

Its barney in crystal stasis.

It is an Aetheryte that is purple! :D can you gimme cords? I'm in Cor now.

48-18 - get there from a cave at the south of it or at the top of 48-19 - Glowing Purple Atheryte
When you examine it you get "The aetheryte emits a dull light...."

Take pictures please! I'm at work T_T

Hmm this reminds me of the crystals in FFXI in Valkrum Dunes in which you talk to to get to Lufaise Meadows.

You're getting near a gate that leads to Abyssea =D Seriously where else do you see purple Aerythe crystals?

Ok I know this is utterly bizarre but think about it; if you suddenly saw a zone that's a clear remnants of ancient civilization of Vana'diel. Like the top of Delfuktt's Tower sticking out of moss and rocks that would be pretty amazing.

I like to see this sort of misteries. :0

..a dimensional portal to vanadiel would be pretty cool :D

I wanna know where this leads to:

Valkurm has the Swirling Vortexes which were just... swirling green vortexes. You're probably thinking interdimensional portals at the crags which took you to Al'taieu. Though yes, I thought the same exact thing.

so i take it no ones gone here for a quest or anything?

There are so many caves in Eorzea they could put a lot of secrets inside if they want... what a pity the most of them are empty. :(

ahhh yeah :p been there. theres lots of those all around eorzea. its like they had this grand idea for the game and never followed through

Hidden raids inside caves? <.<'

BCNMs? <.<''

A rift? <.<'''

OR simply nothing? <.<''''

ya there a few of these around eorzea, they have always been there though.

I wonder what the where (are) planning to do with all these fenced off areas.

made in preparation for new areas and such? When they eventually come.

Sure, but then we'd have to get on our knees and scream "We finally really did it. You maniacs! You blew it up! Damn you. God damn you all to hell!" every time we saw it or something.

I think what's in your chat log is more interesting. Why did you time a run from Iron Lake? Does that include running through Limsa to the Ferry and waiting? Did you run through Mor Dhona to get to Coerthas?
