Dalamud is not an asteroid, whose with me?

I honestly think its one of those candy balls you can't chew.

We have already said its Vana'diel, when it collides FFXI will be gone and everyone from FFXI will be forced to FFXIV.

The base concept of the movie was good. The execution , not so much.

Actually Dalamud was originally an untouched synthesis orb that floated around Menphina, before Nael van Darnus started messing with it. Then it turned into a red orb. Gaius yelled at Nael to try and fix it, so he did but since he tried to goof around with it again on a red orb, it went unstable. Now the thing just wants to be so chaotic.

And hence Darnus picked up the nickname "Darnit Darnus", since he seems to make everything worse where he goes.

Erm.. no haha. Let's not get fanfic mixed up in real lore, please ^^! I took the OP as a serious question and thus gave information that is found within the game.

The scene you're talking about is a disagreement over whether or not it is a good idea to use Dalamud and cast Meteor since the spell is very unreliable and they don't know exactly what will happen. It is fact that it is an Allegan-made colossal structure, "Artificial Moon," that is involved in summoning Meteor.

Its a ball of super condensed negative aether that has become solid mass. That's what I think at least. I'm more than likely wrong and it's just a moon to a moon. :3 Myself, I don't actually think that when they say "Meteor" they actually mean a physical piece of rock floating in space, but the process of making something from space crash into the planet being a meteor itself. If that makes any sense, but that's all I have to say.

I don't think it matters, the way SE are with targets atm it'll probably miss.
