WoL prompt: What was the hardest thing for them to do?

[Local_Custard]

I return! I had to go offline for a bit, but I am back now!
what is the hardest thing your character(s) (WoL or not) had to do? It can be emotionally/mentally, physically, or skill related (such as (but not limited to) crafting or gathering).

As an example: One of my characters, Primrose, had to learn to open up. It took him a year into his relationship with Ailbhe before he started to finally come forward with his emotions. Before then, he kept up barriers. Ailbhe taught him it is healthy sometimes to be vulnerable around those he trusts. He one day started crying while cuddling Ailbhe and that is what started his healing.

I dont RP, so maybe not an "in character" thing, but for me it was becoming and omnicrafter/gatherer. I decided to do it while making a profit on the levelling route (no restoration project and few leves). At points it was rough going - but I made a lot of gil on the way so it was worth it.

Duties, probably Tower of Zot (normal) and the Eden Raid Savage (I tried a couple and they were horrible).

I think this is roleplay related

Do you ever write about character or think of some of the things they go through? This is but a simple headcanon thread :3

Oh yeah definitely. Crafting all the arms for each and every crafter has to be the least favorite part of gearing up crafters(that is, before I began to use scripts to buy em'). I had to make a checklist just so that I could see what I have done and when needs to be made.
It has been a while since I've done the Tower of Zot. What was the hardest part of it for you?

Getting out of bed in the morning. Everything else is a consequence of that one great mistake.

the curse of beds... so soft, warm, and comfortable and the outside air is so cold. Especially if you need to get up early for something... Double this if sleep deprived.

[Vencio]

Vencio was officially ex communicated from the Holy See’s Templar Knights organization due to being dishonourably charged, branded as a heretic & traitor. (Before & during HW events..)

Charges:

Conspiracy , Desertion, Occult practices & treason.

Truth:

(Conspiracy/ Treason) Vencio attempted to present evidence of corruption & crimes that involved the organization to his superiors (unawares to him they too were part of it..a great mistake.)

(Desertion) Vencio never abandoned his military outpost (undisclosed location elsewhere in Coerthas) instead he designated a temporal Templar Captain (one who sold him out to his superiors) to oversee it whilst Vencio initiated a rescue expedition in the search of 2 missing Templars & a family (rumoured to have been taken captive by the pale lady frost.)

(Occult Practices) Far from the truth, Vencio is agnostic & never directly engaged on religious practices except for Templar’s ceremonial purposes. Albeit he revered Halone on a certain level of respect he often question the nature of this deity’s righteous fervor which enfeebled most Ishgardians to be blindy proud & lack foresight. (This minor detail is what further lead to his false arrest).

Ultimately Vencio’s altruistic actions created more harm than good & often backfired which left him beyond shattered while looking back in the past how he dreamt of being a Templar Knight throughout his youth & the ceremonial Templar celebration before his family’s & commoners’s presence with great joy.

Currently his charges were dismissed (in the end of HW’s events & pre Stormblood’s) thanks to the Adventurer’s Guild intervention. Even then, he’s still conflicted upon visiting Ishgard from time to time & yet is delighted to being an official member of the Adventurer’s guild as an Adventurer….a knight of the realm (Eorzea).
