    Garlond Ironworks questions

    Hello everyone I was wondering where to find lore about the inner working of the Garlond Ironworks such as its structure, hierarchy, non-military ventures, and other contracts?

    Encyclopedia Eorzea has a section on Garlond Ironworks but doesn't have much info besides short bios on Cid, Biggs, Wedge and Jessie

    Other contracts/products: I know they make coffee makers? lol The boilermaster (3k?) has been mentioned in a few short stories, the MSQ, and I think Omega. Devs love their coffee and tea, I guess. lol

    This does make me wonder though...who was Cid's mother? Not for a case of "how important is she?" but more of general curiosity. Was she just a normal woman Midas fell in love with, was she too an engineer, etc etc.

    I deeply desire to know who Cid's mother was, as well.

    I regret to tell you, you've revived this thread only to get a very disappointing answer: at this point we can probably reason that we'll never get this information, because it's not important. Cid's one of the characters that's been around longer than the live game; if they've never even named his mom, I think it's safe to say it's because there's nothing to really say about her.

    Not every corner of a fictional world gets colored in.

    We might get a name drop someday, but never an appearance. Garlean moms are illegal.

    (Signature portrait by Amaipetisu)

    "I thought that my invincible power would hold the world captive, leaving me in a freedom undisturbed. Thus night and day I worked at the chain with huge fires and cruel hard strokes. When at last the work was done and the links were complete and unbreakable, I found that it held me in its grip." - Rabindranath Tagore
