PRAY RETURN TO THE WAKING SANDS!

Really creative thread OP, no one's been bold enough to say quite like this in the game's decade-long lifespan, I salute you.

(I hope you stub your toe repeatedly, actually)

IIRC lore explanation is that the Garleans can wiretap your linkshell communications, so saying sensitive mission details over the very easily intercepted linkshell comms is not great for keeping secret things secret. Thus, she only says 'pray return' on the LS, so that when you're there in person the details can be discussed in relative safety (which ends up not working out anyway as we got raided at the tender age of level 35)

Hmm, best not to give sensitive information online, then. Better to give it to a reliable ally in person.

Maybe Thancred. He seems trustworthy.

is this true??? if it is....thats bs , i demand all of you to suffer going back and forth like we did back in 2017 >:/

It's true. You get like 35 of them throughout the MSQ. It's enough for all of the MSQ as well as all of the side quests inside the Waking Sands and the surrounding area.

Even if it wasn't though. Set your Return to Limsa, use the aethernet there to the Arcanists Guild and the ferry to vesper bay is literally right there, and it's like 30 seconds slower maybe.

People overstate that as being a quicker route than the ride from Horizon, especially on a slower connection where you can get bogged down loading into Limsa. I timed both routes and they were much the same, but going from Horizon was less fiddly.

YOU'RE USING A LINK PEARL.

The Garleans are able to tap into link pearl messages, as has been demonstrated by Nero in Praetorium.

So sure, go ahead and tell the Garleans about your deepest secrets on an unsecure line. No worries.

Your personal dislike of Minfilia as a character is noted. <shrugs>. I guess you wanted to do all of the paperwork of running the Scions of the Seventh Dawn yourself? That would have certainly been a different game for A Realm Reborn.

[Tsiron]

You can't reason with these people they've already decided Minfilia is effectively the game's true villain for... minorly inconveniencing them, even though all the characters back in ARR were more or less equally 'useless'. Unlike the rest of them though, Minfilia never got the benefit of extra screentime after ARR to clear her name. The devs gave up on her...

Warrior of Light: *Does literally everything*

Minfilia: "We scions did such a great job!"

Warrior of Light: *Does literally everything*

Minfilia: "We scions did such a great job!"

Minfilia: Does absolutely nothing

Warrior of Light: Does absolutely nothing, since there is no administrator of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn, and an entire expansion is spent randomly doing fetch quests.

If you're really not seeing this, ask yourself "What was Nick Fury doing for the Avengers?" Nothing. Except helping move the plot along. Otherwise, the Avengers would have spent entire movies doing random fetch quests.

[TheMightyMollusk]

Minfilia was an administrator, not a warrior. If she could take to the front lines and handle it all herself, we would've been out of a job.
