So we have a mission?

The flats is where the battle in the trailers for ARR takes place. That's where we get zapped into the future just as shit gets bad.

Soken's tweet in google-translatelol asks if we have already began praying to the 12 places yet. Has anyone tried to see if there's anything note worthy?

Why 11 days from the save to the end? So that we would have nothing distracting us but the events related to the end.

They're urging us on so that we make the next change the in the sequence happen.

I picked up on the same phrase as Nariko. (/wave) (/cheer)

Follow the lore, the hints, and the nudge from Twitter and make things happen. Not in Carteneau Flats, but at the shrines. I plan to visit all 12 tonight. Even the one well guarded by morbols. If I'm wrong, I had fun.

What if the job rune stones are actually a puzzle ? o.o

Yeah a dev answer would be nice on this matter....do we have to sync pray at symbols? or sync pray in all 12 at once? >.>
can we have super powers in the last couple days?

Just seems to be referring to the last storyline quest, and I doubt there's more to it than that... But I'd like to be wrong.

Except that the name is on the full world map...

I hadn't seen that before. I swear I checked the maps too!

Before I posted I had googled it and stumbled across this post:

This char talks about that area and says, "I surmise that it's actually because of what lies just south of the Carteneau Flats in Thanalan... and that is the Ceruleum Field." and it makes it sound like its in Thanalan...


I also like this, " Actually, I'm totally wrong about what the Garleans are after with the upcoming battle. After going over The Unending Journey, I had previously neglected the fact that it IS because Dalamaud is falling on Mor Dhona, and that's where the Aether will be most concentrated to summon the Twelve (which is what we went on our pilgrimages for!) since that's where they'll be needed to stop Dalamud."

The Carteneau Flats (カルテノー平原 [carteneau heigen] or 'carteneau plains' in Japanese) is an area in southern Mor Dhona in Final Fantasy XIV. It is most likely located south of Brittlebark and north of Bluefog in Thanalan. The area, unlike the crystallized craggy ground of the Mor Dhona region around Silvertear Lake, and unlike the mountainy craggy desert of Bluefog is a plains area, albeit one largely bereft of life.

During the year 1573 the area was largely taken over the soldiers of the Garlean Empire, and more specifically the VIIth Legion, led by legatus Nael Van Darnus who initiated the Meteor project, and thus Dalamud's fall to Eorzea. Their reasons for taking over the barren area seem to be simple - it was the focal point, the area where Dalamud was to fall.
In the autumn of 1573, the Grand Companies of Eorzea decided that the Carteneau Flats would be where they would make a stand against the Garlean forces.

Starts to think this place is not accessible at all...

To me this seems to suggest that we need X number of adventurers at each site simultaneously to trigger something. Wonder if someone could actually rally their whole server to do that LOL!

Balmung formed an LS to attempt different combinations of things. We're going to try to pray a a Full Party in the same order as "Living on a Prayer".
