Japanese name for the Scions?

[Kenji_Shiratsuki]

Can anyone tell me what the Japanese name for the Scions of the Seventh Dawn is? In Kanji/kana, or kana only please. I dislike reading Romanji.

You know you can turn on the Japanese voice track on your client right?
You could also try looking at the Japanese website: http://jp.finalfantasyxiv.com/pr/wor...allies/content

If you're interested in knowing the japanese name, and fluent enough in japanese that you prefer kanji/kana, then why not ask in the japanese forums?

I guess I should explain my situation. I'm very rusty in my Japanese although I can generally still read katakana and hiragana. I have a good resource for looking up Kanji and their meanings, even though I don't know many, and my vocabulary is still not good enough to hold a conversation...otherwise I would just ask on the JP forums. I'm trying to get fluent in Japanese but it's a slow process. >_< I can see the Kanji for the name on the JP site but I can't highlight it so I can't see how to pronounce it.

EDIT: I found the Kanji in Eorzea Database where I can copy it. So now I can learn them. Thanks for kicking my lazy butt into thinking of how I could find it myself. ^^;

I believe its Akatsuki 暁(?)

暁の血盟
Akatsuki no Ketsumei
Means Blood Alliance of the Dawn. Or Blood Oath of the Dawn.

Why didn't they use that for the english name?

Cause Blood = evil ofc :3

Doesn't really roll off the tongue as well imo

I would argue that it's more to do with the English version's love of flowery language than anything.

"Scion" is a term used to refer to a descendant or inheritor of something (e.g. scion of the royal family); the Scions of the Seventh Dawn are those who inherited the late Louisoix's mission and carry on his legacy.
