Tales under the New Moon #7: An Abiding Aspiration

[Alleluia]

I love Zero and I like Golbez too. (I confess, I still don’t understand the complaints about the EW patch storyline beyond possible gripes about pacing issues.) So this was a welcome story choice.

More clarification on the “I ended up in the rift” stuff was appreciated. I mean, it still feels very convenient and like there’s a story there (probably involving an ascian), but at least the order of events has been developed further. Also the refusal to feed, even unto the point of starving to death and just respawning, makes a lot about the state we find her vs her past self make sense.

This story was a fun read. Reminds me how very much I look forward to the expac that reconnects us to them. And I hope the interesting information in this short story about Zero’s past struggles is recapped in-game when it’s relevant again.
