I’m gonna take this moment to quite the Eorzea Encyclopedia, because I think it makes it clear that she was working to prevent calamities, matching up with true quotes I’ve posted that no one has really refuted.



So we have two examples, not including the efforts of the WoL during 1.0, of Hydaelyn lending her strength to those trying to stop the Calamities. If she was so dedicated to things happening as we described them, why try to stop two necessary events?
