    To traverse the Lifestream safely with Teleport and Return requires a great deal of spiritual energy, known as anima. While many individuals, such as adventurers, possess the fortitude to endure such travel, some individuals do not. What’s more, even if one has the ability to use aetherytes, the frequency with which one can do so varies. In essence, for some, the recast time for these spells can be far longer than for an adventurer.
    ummm.... I don't understand. So... what happened to our anima? Are we still able to use it?

    Many aetheryte camps were destroyed during the Calamity, which necessitated their reconstruction. However, this came at great expense, and so teleportation fees must be collected to repay the as yet unpaid debt.

    However, the gil doesn’t just magically disappear from your purse! Though it's not shown in the game, it's collected by the guards keeping watch of the aetherytes.

    On a side note, guards posted by each city-state's aetheryte can tell you about aetherytes and teleportation magic. If you're interested, see what they have to say!
    I don't believe this ballony.

    They're as bad as the US IRL, working on credit are they?? I'm pretty sure they could've thought of something else,lol!
    Nobody works for free for they time they were reconstructing. I would rather go back to paying in anima.

    You know it say it right there? requires a great deal of spiritual energy, known as anima. While many individuals, such as adventurers, possess the fortitude to endure such travel, some individuals do not.

    It mean we have so much anima that it does not affect us like normal npc. Pretty much in 1.0 we had a limit before we can no longer endure such travel. But now sense it 2.0 and i'm guessing our body have way more spiritual energy that we can travel as many time as we wish but we pay for it because it cost way to much to build./
