Lore Book Revelations

[Phetty]

Sorry to be clear I meant the Job Warrior not the WoD. I've seen just about every job but mine it feels like. Plus I'd like to know more about our Relics and such.

Angel Feather's
"The faerie spread her angelic wings, and a shimmering light exploded over the battlefield. As it washed over me, I felt my pain subside, and where I thought myself fatally broken, I was whole again" -- Anonymous adventurer describing the healing power of a scholar's faerie companion

That's pretty much what it says about SCH LB3. Though it's nice to kinda see it from the perspective of someone in the game world

Except that it would have its own voidsent. The whole reason the Warriors of Darkness came to our world to cause a rejoining of theirs was that it would leave their people in a state of unlife/undeath. They'd be twisted into light-oriented voidsent.

If Dark Voidsent are attributed to being demons... Would Light Voidsent be angelic?

" Ques Bayonetta angel fighting theme song" I would wager it would look like Bayonetta angels or something of the sort

I still stand by my theory that the Light void is a world without matter or aether. A place where the consciousness is frozen and non-existent. Plus So far Angels only existed as Lily's Super Mode, the inspiration for a staute that became a golem and a dark-aspected voidsent (and the latter is more of a Fallen Angel, a mockery of the concept you had in mind)

Theres also the matter of theri (lack of) appearance in the source. If anything let along Voidsent were suffered to exist in the First as a void of Light then surely they would had been able to follow Arbert, Lamimi and the rest into the source using their own methods (i.e possession)

It seems very unlikely. For starters all the relic weapons are as the name implies, relics. Antiques, old. The Gae Bolg Estinein uses was likely made more recently.

Plus a lot of the relics seemed to had been mass produced in their heydey anyway like the Stardust Rods.

On a different note, the Ascians are down 4 memebers, Mitron (killed by Arbert and his band), Lahabrea (Killed by Thordian), Nabriales and Igeyohrm (killed by us).

I haven't made it all the way through the book yet, so just drop a citation on (and ignore) me if I'm just mistaken here, but: Are we sure that vanquished means killed in this case? The word doesn't always mean "killed", just "defeated" or "overcome" in any way.

We saw Arbert wielding a blade of light in the aetherial sea, as we did against Lahabrea; yet that only cast him out of Thancred and destroyed a dark crystal. Mitron might still be out there sans a vessel of the First and some wasted time.

This does not confirm Gaius' death! *sob sob*

It feels wrong, but until I find a place that the book is wrong in a different assumption, I have to accept it as an extraordinary heavy weight on the scales of probability... bummed, though I am.

No, it goes even beyond that - the confusion about the gender of Nael is in the original Japanese too.

Never mind the two male-explicit pronouns in Japanese ("What if the Lodestone was deliberate misinformation? And surely Gaius didn't know better if Eula was hiding it.") or that the JP-built model was male in the DATs and had a male voice pack ("What if Eula was wearing armor built for a man and faking a deeper voice?") or that Yoshida-san himself said "always man" when asked in person at Fan Fest I ("What if he was just trying to cover the mistakes with some consistency that the lore book has negated the need?") or that Rise and Fall of the White Raven was considered accurate by the lore team in its day despite it needing an update now ("What if ... Ascians?") or that other things have changed, too, such as Bradamante's lore ("What if the Lodestone was just always wrong? It said the spear was said to be named for someone Darnus slew; it made no promises.")

I, for one, think we should just take the Encyclopaedia Eorzea as a gift and forsake everything else. What was the purpose of debate? To find the Truth. Here it is, in black and white (or black and parchment, I guess). Is it possible that a chunk of it is a masterful post hoc clean-up? Sure. Are some development stitches showing? Sure seems like it. But it's done. There it is: Truth.

I'm takin' it.
