  1. Loved this dungeon. Callbacks to old allies and enemies. Gaius' subordinates, Ilberd, Amon. Papalimo, Brochufaunt, Thigh-Mommy, MILFillia. Then we get to meet crystal mommy. And our hearts… 🙁

  2. Super fun instance that was a heartwarming and heart wrenching callbacks. Such an incredible send off for quite a few characters. 💕💕

    The trial encounter is amazing, especially when you consider her ultimatum. You feel the weight of her choices over the years, and she has led you to this moment. 👀👀👀👀

    Another wonderful reaction video 💞

  3. The fact that the 8th calamity that we prevented in Shadowbringers people in the dead future were inspired by our tales and created a time machine to save all and Hydaelyn herself was also inspired by us all the time ever since Elpis she endured everything because she trusted that one day her champion will succeed 🙁

  4. Tragic as it sounds… Hydaelyn, Venat, needed to perish here. In her time, people who fulfilled their roles in life would pass on, returning their souls to the star. Venat never believed her role was finished, even after leaving the seat of Azem. This is because she kept finding people in need, kept finding purpose in helping others. Even as a supreme being, her role was unchanged. For lifetimes upon lifetimes she continued that role, helping others in her own way. This is because mankind couldn't help themselves, they weren't strong enough, they weren't wise enough.

    But you passed her test. You proved that we have reached that point, that we are able to carry on and move forward, even without Hydaelyn guiding us and protecting us. This is why she lets out such an exhausted sigh in your presence, because you have finally taken that monumental burden from her shoulders. Physically, mentally, she is finally free to return to the star, to return to her friends and loved ones within the star.

    As for answering her question, by defeating her you did just that. You proved your conviction, that your journey was worth the steps taken and the steps you've yet to take. You're willing to go this far, and even further, for the sake of everyone. Needless to say, Venat really appreciated that answer.

    And at the end of this essay, I have a recommendation: With that trial complete, I cannot stress enough that you should pull up the lyrics to Answers, a song written all the way back in 2.0 when A Realm Reborn launched, and read them again. The song hits very different now.

  5. The song playing behind Venat/Hydalyn during the last scenes is one you can get off the market board called "Flow". On my server, it's pretty cheap. I'd grab it and give it a listen.

    Lyrics:

    Welcome and well met, my brave little spark

    How long you’ve wandered, burned bright as a star

    Oh, I have longed, waiting patiently

    All this time past every fate

    Now sing with me once more

    Share of your life

    Far greater than memory

    It’s loss and love words cannot hold

    Boundless, the tale overflows and carries your light out to sea

    Remember the rain, near and far beloved

    Each drop a blessing, from heavens abovе

    And how must time float on those waters

    Bеcame one, streams, rivers and lakes

    Reaching for the horizon and far beyond

    They carry onward, however changed with each brief reflection

    By setting sun, by storm’s wake

    Till welcomed home to gentle sea

    Sinking deeper and deeper in calm embrace

    Loving tide sweeping in, bear you down

    Should you meet us, arise and surface thus

    With your own beating heart wish them well

    Deep, dark, far away

    I heard of your voice

    With your every choice

    Now our hands joined round the meaning you sought

    I’ll catch your tears

    Quench your fears with joy

    To your devotion

    Where in time all shall as hope be reborn all

    Hush love, close your eyes

    Let them sleep all blind, in such a still night

    It calls to unto dreams, be and all

    Though you will weep, the winds rise again, for this journey’s end

    Is but one step forward to tomorrow

    “Flow” is a song composed by Masayoshi Soken for Final Fantasy 14: Endwalker with lyrics written by Michael-Christopher Koji Fox and performed by Amanda Achen-Keenan.

  6. Just to mention, but calling her Venat at the end is what hits her a little harder emotionally and why she tears up. I like to think it also holds some meaning in that until now she was only known as the deity Hydaelyn which has kept her apart from the world for eons. We acknowledge her duty is finally done so she can return to simply being Venat, and also that we still see her true self.

  7. I feel Venat's plight matched the theme of this expansion so well. No matter how terrible it gets, never give in and keep fighting. I appreciate that they not only make a wonderful story, but enforce very positive themes of life itself. It hits different when you apply it personally. Things get bad in life, but keep clinging to it. Don't give up on it. Walk it out, so to speak. Step by step find a way forward, and whatever happiness (or purpose) there is, can only be determined by you and you alone. Shockingly enough that very last part is reiterated by Zenos of all people.

  8. 6:00 "How do you know that?" Hythlodaus and Montichaigne both suggested that erased memories are restored when one dies and returns to the Aetherial Sea (which is where this is) so after they died they remembered everything.
