    DE: "Walk confidently towards your goal, following the dearest wish in your heart. Only then those powers will unfurl. Those were the words of the creator of this magic." (Original DE translated by Tama.)

    The EN translation was pretty confusing honestly, as the original bearer of the crystal was Emet-Selch...not Azem. Yet the DE dialogue makes it clear that Hydaelyn is in fact referencing Azem here. Perhaps you could enlighten me with the JP dialogue for comparison as I'd like to know with certainty who is meant to be being referenced here.
    I don't understand what you find confusing about the EN version there...Its literally saying the same thing as your DE translation.

    Maybe that clears it up for you.
    You guys aren't very good at subtleties are you?

    It's amusing seeing 4-6 of them instantly back each other up on being pedantic.

    The fact you think this brings your grasp of English into question let alone any other language. Every response of yours has been disingenuous and not in good faith. I don't know what skin you have in this game, but when all you're doing is repeating the same response, i.e. "it's literally the same" when it isn't, it doesn't strengthen your argument it just makes it look like you have none.
