The FF14 writers ignore the lore of Yshtola being blind. You should feel free to do so as well.I wish I could willfully ignore things regarding XIV.
Things I'd like to ignore include:
Time Bubble
Any mention of Y'shtola being blind
Aenor's last name being Cockburne
The ultimately unresolvable/doomed 8UC timeline
The nothingburger behind the sibling choice in Nier/Nier in general
Every time the lore contradicts itself (Such as the Blessing vs. The Echo)
Misjia being able to replicate Aulus mal Asina's Resonance procedure without killing as many people (there weren't as many body bags around the place).
not true the writers arent ignoring it she is in fact blind as far as normal sight is concerned (ie color) instead he has the ability to "see" aether like emet and hythlodeus. but it was stated by matoya that by useing that ability she is actively shortening her lifespan(prolly do to being sundered since emet didnt seem to have that issue). so prolly doesnt always have it active. this was all stated in the .x section of HW if i remember right.
Actually this is a bit of a misconception from the English translation. She's not shortening her lifespan, she's just consuming more aether. Matoya's concern in other languages is less like if she was actively reducing her lifespan and more the sort of concern parents get when they learn their child's started driving a motorcycle. English wasn't as clear on the severity of things as the Japanese translation, so we got some wires crossed.but it was stated by matoya that by useing that ability she is actively shortening her lifespan(prolly do to being sundered since emet didnt seem to have that issue). so prolly doesnt always have it active. this was all stated in the .x section of HW if i remember right.
The 6.2 stuff with Zero is sort of quietly righting the ship on this one; aether can be replaced, and Y'shtola's happy to run on a less-than-full tank. It's not an active danger and it's not actively reducing her lifespan; she just has to take more care of herself than your average person, probably eat more than she used to.
