The Hatching Hour Approaches

[Nabiri]

All I know is something going down one way or another, Which gets me excited nevertheless =). Yes they are two different events That I believe either are linked together, or have its own separate lore, Yes right now I don't see a connection, Just pure Speculation. Time will tell when and If, they give us another Writing from the Gridania Writer, or if NPC's start saying different things, which I highly doubt sense thats a Lore all on its own and being taken up by that particular event.

Would be exciting to see if it was actually Jihli's archons making it rain and bringing doom. :x lol Guess we have to wait and see. (I kind of hope the Storm Over Gridania event has to do with the Garleans somehow. :3)
I really hope we get another article from that writer soon.
I hope you don't feel that I was arguing with you Starlord. I re-read my posts and saw how it might sound like that, but I meant no harm.

If the events are not connected, then I really don't have any guesses for what will happen with Hatching-tide IF anything else was supposed to happen - with Jihli's archons or whatever.

I have many more ideas for what Storm Over Gridania could bring. Garleans, Beastmen, map remakes, some new foe/threat? Grand Companies, new areas??

Anyways, I'm psyched and it's nice to see other people enjoying the events so much. ^.^v

Nah Your Cool, I rather talk to you than the some people who want to put down the game and claim they want to make it better but its whatever =).

Yes The Article, was well written and made the lore that much greater creating a jump start into the Community =). On a pervious thread one person said that they are doing the False Prophet thing to cover there tracks if the Shady Character Prophecy doesn't fall through. but that would back any sense considering all the other changes thats been happening besides that Phantom to comes and goes lol. And also about these Deaspected Crystals what about those, and those are part of the lore too in that First Article. And also all the NPCs saying Skies have become our Nemesis, and Ferry Boat gets sunken down things like that.

The whole thing here is to enjoy the game and for what they put out ( especially when it wasnt even in the patch notes and catching everyone off guard) That was a smooth move by SE, thats what I like to see out of them and I hope they continue that towards their endeavors.

I find the deaspected crystals especially interesting. I wonder if we'll have some use for them in the coming days/weeks. I wonder what they could be used for. I don't think it'll be too big, nothing that the PS3 users would be upset about missing out on (like an item we can only get now), but something to keep those play now interested and having fun. Maybe quests will be added relating to the Storm Over Gridania, and we'll need these crystals to progress. Or maybe as some have wondered, they'd be related to the materia system.
I'm collecting as many of them as I can get a hold of. Which is sadly only 6 so far. lol.. I'll keep working on it. Even if they have no significant use after all, I'll keep some for the memories.

I agree. I really really love the way that SE just slipped this event in without explaining anything. Just a touch of lore, some random odd events, and let everyone wonder what the heck is going on. It's brilliant. A great way to keep people thinking, wondering, and interested in the game. I really hope they do more of this in the future when we're unsuspecting.

Alot of People think it could be the "Beastman Seals" of FFXIV. But as one mentioned on the forums, the Arcanist could be using the Elemental Crystals as a form of Energy Supply that makes them use the abilities they use. Im leaning towards that because of the fact that "Deaspected Crystals are empty. and wait.. theres also Something else thats linked with these Deaspected Crystals, Remember the R34 Mission where You had to Take Crystals and turn them into "Deaspected Crystals... hmmm.. But what could they be used for if they were used in Mission R34... now theres something.. *ponders*

I dont think they be throwing Deaspected crystals without tell us what they are used for if it were for an "actual event" that last so long.. but they are continuing to drop at a very low rate and still getting them
after the Hatching tide event" now that event is over to a degree ( because people are still speculating a Continuation of the event because the lore was left abandon *at least for now anyhow*) I currently hold 6 so you 2 more ahead of me there buddy =).

Unexpected things can lead to wonderful things and bring alot of life into this community, especially now everyone seems to be more active ( even if they are still negative) in there own way they want this game to succeed just have a very bad way of showing it.. but I know they care

And I may fuss about them at times too... because I like being Positive but I know they want it to succeed.. lol I admit I do complain about the complainers ( mainly when they go on and on and on about it lol)
