Time to start really going hard into the lvl50 Dungeons! This was a great one, but while many people have had to do this dungeon over and over I’m curious to see how much they knew or remember about the lore here. It’s a troubling tale to be sure.

Let’s goooooo!
Damn, can’t imagine seething for 1500 years like that, let alone watching a slow and gross transformation from basic Lalafells to something so drastic and bizarre as a Tonberry. We need them as beast tribes.
Also, thank you for this scene! 11:12 I would always remove the cutscene skip here when it came up in roulette back in ARR-HW. Best ending, don’t mess with twisted Lalafells
first!
You know, I really can't blame them for letting themselves have that bit of revenge. Poor fellows have truly been through it, haven't they?
As an avid researcher of the Magi war I love this video about the Wonderer Palace! One of my favorite dungeons also thanks to its beauty, not only my love for Nym!
Thank you for the really good video 😀
Tyty for another dungan history I love them
One of the most heartwrenching origin stories. I have nothing but a deep, genuine respect for the Tonberries of FF14. Poor souls.
Hmm…having the Tonberries cured opens up an interesting political quandry for the Admiralty, as basically a new city state has popped up inside her borders. How are they going to address the Nymians, I wonder?
Also ACUAL SCHOLARS OF NYM! I'm gonna get a proposal together so we can get one of them to do a series of lectures at the Studium!
My mate didn't understand why I'd lose it anytime we got this in roulette, hurts even more on sch.
I sooooo look forward to each of your vids. Like an early Xmas present. Thank you sooooo much for your continued endeavors. Would love to see you eventually branch out into covering some of the more obscure side quests that have Lore Stories. And I just finished the Stormblood 8 man Raids, and cried for hours! Really want to hear your take on that little side story. Anyways, keep the Lore alive <3
Going through the scholar questline and then learning about all that happened in the magi war makes this dungeon hit so hard whenever it pops up. Thank you for covering its story
Saw somebody made a video saying that the sea of clouds was the remains of elpis… and I'm conflicted about that. Thoughts?
Your know, I wish we got some follow-up on the Tonberry cure during endwalker.
I am always horrified and adore the tonberries during the Wanderer's Palace (Hard) ending cutscene. If i were the WoL, i would literally scream "SIC EM!"
Tonberries are some of the most iconic Final Fantasy monsters, and they get great lore in this game.
Random question- Do fantasia potions exist in Eorzia, or are they strictly a game feature? Wondering if they actually had lore behind them.
Want to use one, but it bugs me if I can't come up with a head cannon for it lol
Knowing what we know now about the nature of voidsent and the unrest caused by an overabundance of dark aether, it's less weird to think of them surviving 1500+ years trapped in there as monsters.
