Can we get polygamous eternal bonds?

All i'm hearing is OP wanted Harems.

Just let us buy the dress glam separately.

And the ring! If they won't let me marry my NPC WoL ship(s) then I at least want to run around with the ring on!

I know someone who's in a polygamous relationship, very unhappy person because she realizes she's never going to feel special being just a number so I hope they never treat it as the new normal xD

and i know plenty of people in monogamous relationships, married or not, who are extremely unhappy. what's your point ?

Ya all act like its some kinda off world oddity to have three people loving each other. While it is not as common as your regular Relationship, i far prefer this over all the disturbing stuff i had to witness in this Game.

It's almost like different things work for different people. It's the same old tired argument being reused, people trying to force their beliefs onto others because it works out great for them not realising not everyone is the same.

Poly especially seems to get a bad coverage because people associate it with cheating or non loyalty, not realising some people don't really view love or relationships in the same mindset they do, some people will be unhappy in that type of relationship, but others would be unhappy in a monogamous relationship I don't know how that is hard to comprehend for some people.

"In a time long ago, the people of Eorzea faced a crisis no less dire than the fall of Dalamud...

Yet rather than set aside their disputes and rebuild from the ashes, they succumbed to their baser instincts and squabbled amongst themselves. In the aftermath of that calamity, the land slipped further into chaos...

Two souls, united in purpose, rose above their brethren, and together they sought out the marks of the Twelve to entreat each deity for an answer to the question: what must mankind do to survive?

Before each mark they prayed and awaited a response...but the ones they received were not the ones they sought. Yet they pressed on, ever hopeful, and over the course of their journey, a bond began to form between the two...

Many now retrace the steps of their journey, visiting each mark of the Twelve as they did long ago." - Lore



DUNNO, seems very much like a two person affair to me. If you want more partners, you can do it, but seems like the eternal bond is very much steeped in tradition. You can rent out that small chapel in Thanalan and have your own ceremony. Sanctum of the TWELVE is for couples only, simple as. I see words like "partner" "couple" "bond between two" in the lore, nothing else.

Nor do I think the lore should bend to someones real life wants and likes. Roleplay it out, have your own ceremonies in your house or become one of the Bayaqud Xaela who take multiple husbands.
