scattershot: (✶ fleeting rays)
[personal profile] scattershot
Thy life is a riddle, to bear rapture and sorrow
To listen, to suffer, to entrust unto tomorrow
In one fleeting moment, from the land doth life flow
Yet in one fleeting moment, for anew it doth grow


A Realm Reborn

A Hero in the Making
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
The so-called 'Remembrance' Ceremonies were little more than standard-waving rallies - as if the Calamity warranted scarcely a mention.

The Binding Coil of Bahamut
Part 1
Locked
Instead of resuming the destruction he had begun, Bahamut vanished. Whither to, no one knew... until this day.

The Second Coil of Bahamut
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
Continue on, if you would have your answers - but know this path leads only to despair. The light of truth was ever harsh and unforgiving.

The Final Coil of Bahamut
Part 1
Locked
Your hopes and dreams must no longer be an extension of mine. You must find your own reason to fight - your own meaning in this sea of chaos.


Heavensward

A Malm in Her Shoes
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
It is well that you respect your grandsire's teachings, Alisaie, but I doubt he meant for you to fall asleep sitting up.

Two Sides of a Coin
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
Allow me to accompany you, Brother. And before you think to refuse, know that I am not the girl I once was.

The Beast That Mourned at the Heart of the Mountain
Part 1 | Part 2
Memory Unlocked
What sort of twisted monster would consider a ritual focus a work of art, knowing full well how it was made? And we call them beastmen.

Beneath a Star-Filled Sky
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
I never understood why Grandfather gave his life that day. I thought that, if I came here, I would find the answers I needed.

One Life for One World
Part 1
Locked
I expect a full explanation when this is over. For now, may I assume you have turned your cloak for the last time?


Stormblood

In Crimson It Began
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
Your friends were a disappointment. But you... you will entertain me, will you not?

Alisaie's Stones
Part 1 | Part 2
Locked
I have one last idea. It's not very good - it's exceedingly reckless, in fact, and you may well come to despise me for having suggested it. Assuming we survive.

In Soroban We Trust
Part 1
Locked
Listen to my words, and let all else wash away. Feel them flow into your heart... at first a trickle, then a flood...

The Lord of the Revel
Part 1 | Part 2
Memory Unlocked
It was my fight, not yours. I knew that from the start, but I also knew I couldn't do it alone.

The World Turned Upside Down
Part 1
Locked
Forgive me. This is rather more daunting than I anticipated. But you are right, I must be strong. Wish me luck.

The Lady of Bliss
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
Look thee on her face, supplicant. Thy prayer has been answered. Flesh sundered has been made whole.

The Price of Freedom
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
You're right. I killed them. Ansfrid, Hrudolf, Emelin - trained and fought with every last one of them. Good soldiers to a man.

The Sword in the Store
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
A blade like that is worth a fortune. Enough to buy a house and furnish it. Which you would know had you bothered to check the price.

A Sisterly Act
Part 1 | Part 2
Memory Unlocked
Where in the world are you, brother? If you die on me, I will never let you hear the end of it.

The Call
Part 1
Locked
Your testimony confirms my suspicion. That which you experienced was, I believe, your soul being plucked from your flesh.

Prelude in Violet
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
I've been reminded again and again of how little I can change about this world. And I've come to know the sorrow of parting all too well.

Seiryu's Wall
Part 1 | Part 2
Locked
You saved my brother's life, so I'm willing to let sleeping dogs lie. But in truth, it's not my decision to make.

Parley on the Front Lines
Part 1
Locked
Gods, Lyse... you know how much I hate politics. But what choice do I have? Alphinaud and the others aren't going to do it.

The Face of War
Part 1
Locked
We should finish them off while we have the chance. Imagine the others' surprise when they wake to find the war already won.


Shadowbringers

A Purchase of Fruit
Part 1 | Part 2
Locked
Do you see what lies beyond? That's what became of the land after the light flooded in. An empty white nothingness.

The Time Left to Us
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
It's never easy, ending a life that you've cared for... even if you believe they go on to a better place.

The Lightwardens
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3
Memory Unlocked
One does not simply slay a Warden. Has no one told you what happens if you defeat one of those fiends?

Il Mheg, the Faerie Kingdom
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
Send Urianger my regards... and tell him to live somewhere less annoying next time.

The Wheel Turns
Part 1 | Part 2
Memory Unlocked
Lest you forget, I made you a promise. I have no intention of meddling with your mission. I came only to observe.

A Feast of Lies
Part 1
Locked
Do you remember what we were told? 'Many enter, but none leave'... Let us put an end to this 'paradise' built on the bones of the poor.

Extinguishing the Last Light
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
Ah, the irony. What Vauthry achieved through bliss, you will achieve through despair.

The Unbroken Thread
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
Making promises you have no way of keeping is not a kindness! We've all searched for an answer, and we all came-back empty-handed!

The Illuminated Land
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
It's a hollow dream. Even if they manage to rejoin all the worlds, they'll never bring back the ones who were lost.

The End of a World
Part 1 | Part 2
Locked
You were gone so long I was on the verge of mounting a rescue party. How fared you in your bureaucratic adventures?

Shadowbringers
Part 1
Locked
Our worlds may not live up to your lofty standards, but they are our worlds! Our homes! Full of life and love and hope!

Good for the Soul
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
Pay him no mind, child. Though it may look like a grotesque parody of reality, it is what the invoker believes that matters.

In the Name of the Light
Part 1
Locked
To have the world at large associate Light, and by extension Hydaelyn, with "good" must have added insult to injury.

Food for the Soul
Part 1 | Part 2
Memory Unlocked
Though I personally disagree with the consensus, I do nonetheless advise thee to temper thine expectations.

Nothing Unsaid
Part 1
Locked
I realize this is sudden... but I've come to say goodbye. It's time for me to return home.

Reflections in Crystal, Part One
Part 1
Locked
I make no promises about what is to come. Even the greatest mages in history knew better than to transport a soul across the rift.

Reflections in Crystal, Part Two
Part 1
Locked
I've never been one to set much store by appearances, but I can't help feeling a certain lack of... I don't know, personal development.

The Wisdom of Allag
Part 1 | Part 2
Memory Unlocked
Furthermore, your conduct in the presence of His Highness is grossly inappropriate. Know your place, handmaiden.

Forget Us Not
Part 1
Locked
It may be a while before we return, so I would ask for your patience... and your faith.

The Great Ship Vylbrand
Part 1
Locked
There will be no more man and beastman. And together, we will share in the wealth of the world - if you will only accept our hand in friendship.

Here Be Dragons
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
Be my guest. But confuse me with Alphinaud again, and I'll throw you overboard.

For Vengeance
Part 1 | Part 2
Locked
My children... Should you hearken to my call, we shall fly together once more. But should you not, I shall grant you peace.

On Official Business
Part 1
Locked
If Eorzea falls, so will Sharlayan. So if you truly love our homeland, you will join us - now, before it's too late.


Endwalker

A Seat at the Last Stand
Part 1
Locked
It was only afterwards that I realized how childish I had been. Being stubborn and self-righteous must run in the family.

A Guide of Sorts
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3
Locked
No longer was knowledge preserved for the benefit of society. Rather, society was to be reshaped to ensure the preservation of knowledge.

Estate Visitor
Part 1
Locked
While I shall miss dressing you in those precious matching outfits, I must respect the individuals you have grown to become.

The Color of Joy
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
Warriors must take proper meals and rest if they are to maintain a healthy constitution.

Sound the Bell, School's In
Part 1
Locked
I know better than anyone the adoration the student body has for Alphinaud. With a bit of luck, it should work to our advantage.

Tracks in the Snow
Part 1 | Part 2
Locked
Maybe we don't belong here. But neither do they. Not out here in the wind and cold.

The Last Bastion
Part 1 | Part 2
Memory Unlocked
Though you children may speak in earnest, overtures of peace ever ring hollow in my ears. So long as man seeks to profit from his neighbor's suffering, war is inevitable.

Alea Iacta Est
Part 1
Memory Unlocked
Sometimes the only way to protect the ones you love is to take a stand. To refuse to suffer in silence.
