The two girls that would rather run through the cold, being attacked by monsters, than stay with those evil Eorzea people. Plus the suicide of that general(?). Garlemald was a treasure.
Yeah - that part of the story was so upsetting! Atop the part you mention, the scene with Matsya running with the baby..... I was literally sat in the room (alone) saying "Noo! Don't you DARE" to the screen and the relief I felt when Estinien (and Vrtra) appeared and saved them.... also have to credit Matsya's voice actor here - I honestly believed the despair in Matsya's voice during that scene.

As for Garlemald - Its a relatively small moment, but Jullus (at Camp Brokenglass) being handed a cup of soup, seeing the people around him living the moment, playing music, bickering over contributions, and just being 'Human'. "It's the little things that make life worth living", and its especially poignant that it was all from people whom he was taught were 'savages', and he tears up from it. That part was so touching.
