Tam-Tara Deepcroft and Edda

[Magis]

How can you definitively say that the Voidsent we fight isn't, in some part, Avere reborn: Void Style? To be honest, we don't truly what happens after a character dies. Do we truly go to Nald'Thal? For all we know our souls could just be pulled into the Void. I agree it most likely isn't THE Avere but I think it's possible that some part of him could be in there, albeit corrupted by her necromantic experiments.

Question, is a character's "soul", and "aether" one and the same, or different parts? If so, then it doesn't go to the void, the aether is release back from where it came.

Hm, interesting thought popped in my head though with your comment that souls are "pulled into the void". If man has a soul, and it came from the void... the recent talk about "the darkness in man's heart" is mighty interesting. However there is no proof to back that up.

I just want to correct something, I saw someone mentioning the ghost train hoping that it will finally be revealed since ARR now have some creepy material.

Thing is, the ghost train already exist, it's the train that link the two castrums from mor dhona and bluemist/northern thanalan.

Now to the real point, I'm pretty sure in the notes she left here and there she says that the bodies she gathered are not strong enough, not avere's soul, she really was looking for a body to put Avere's voidcorrupted soul in it IMO.
(Btw, if the boss wasn't avere, he wouldn't have his name, thus the boss is avere but, probably not the same avere she Stockholmly loved)

Side note: Just noticed today that if any of the grooms to be reach the center "A V E R E" that is written around the center will light up, letter by letter. I wonder if he does something special if you let his name complete... You know, more than a 4k red wedding.

It's not one hit ko but only the tank survives it most of the time and without a healer you die in seconds.

Not taking the story in itself into account (which is good) Now I want NECROMANCER CLASS! (Hint: my Character name ^^)

The last Boss fight is just insane, fast-pace, lots of dodging, always on the move, we killed too fast the adds on the first time, can't wait to be with a full FC to let ourselves to see all the written symbols on the groud.. really looks like dark magic at his best.. simply WOW! SE, you made something good over there.

a big THANK YOU!

I loled with the "from a satisfied customer"
I can totally imagine you getting out of the most scary haunted house and look at the guy who handle it with your thumb up and a big grin on your face xD

I think I'm the only one who prefers the idea that Edda just went so mad after her experiences that she managed to find and cultivate these powers on her own. :-/

Reducing it to something lame like "Voidsent told her to do it." would just be incredibly cheap, uninspired, and would suck all of the intrigue out of this to me.

Rather tired of the voidsent as a whole honestly, but meh...

I don't think it's "Voidsent told her to" more "Voidsent laid the breadcrumbs" I mean laying the knowledge about necromancy in a place where only a person mad enough to look for it will find it, from there it's only a matter of time. I honestly have no doubt that Edda, after however she got the knowledge of the art, experimented and cultivated her powers on her own volition. She just happens to have been that batshit crazy.

Necromancy is definitely a void art though, see as there are ALOT of voidsent in Tam-Tara HM, though that could also be her using her new powers to tap into the void energies already present in the area, seeing how the Lambs of Dalamud used it to to revive Galvanth the Dominator in the Story mode version. So many possibilities :3
