Of the many regions we have explored on Etheyris, none are more antagonistic to life that The Burn, a salted wasteland that was once devoid of aether.
Lets take a trip back to Stormblood and unravel the truth of the hareshest region on Etheirys.
Thanks so much for watching this video.
My channel is focused on player perspective content, gameplay, theory’s and importantly game lore for Final Fantasy XIV.
As this channel has grown, my goals have evolved, but ever do they remain the same.
That is the creation of videos that mean to bring a smile to a viewer’s face or provide them with even one piece of useful information.
I mean to live up to these goals and the time you have taken to watch my content.

Just like the dwarves of Moria they left the bloody door open and then have the audacity to complain that orcs are claiming squatters rights
i hate mist dragon with a BURNing passion xD
Coming to ff14 from swtor, and eso, there was one location that The Burn reminded me of, post-storyline Ziost a blighted white-grey wasteland devoid of life, aside from the hulking monoliths which aren't really alive, they are constructs of some form. Seeing the burn I could immediately believe the aetherial imbalance that occurred there, and the allagan experiments that led to it as I ventured further, the mist dragon sealed the deal for me, an aberration somehow unliving, surviving in some form in this lifeless wasteland feeding off of whatever vestiges of life remain. And it also made me think, does the burn have the same "hollow" feeling to spell;casters that Ziost, and Nathema have to force users within the narrative of swtor, an emptyness, nawing away at the back of your mind, a feeling of wrongness that cements the atrocities committed here.
utah?
Another banger video! BTW the Burn always reminds me of The Empty on the first… And both of it reminds me of Moon. All lands which are covered in stagnant aether.
The terminology of cutting the area off from the life stream may be entirely correct. This could explain the Dotharl belief of a closed reincarnation cycle. Maybe souls lost in areas too far removed from an aether current bounce right back rather than reach the aetherial sea?
Azys La is a collection of islands from various places. The southern and southwestern islands are all chunks of land taken from Meracydia. It's possible we could find another burn down there when/if we ever go there.
Great video! I appreciated the lesson in FF XIV lore. It's been a while since I played through Heavensward and Stormblood so I appreciate the refresher. Also, I love seeing how the devs can slide in bits of lore as a potential Easter egg for other FF games such as FF VIII.
As a big fan of Miqo'te Lore The Burn does represent the likely path that the tribes used before it was altered when they fled Eorzea in their long trek to Meracydia, shame you missed mentioning that point.
Why does every sentence you say end with a downward inflection and frequently a hiss? Now that I notice it I find it intolerable.
Luckily there is no dormant EDEN resting in the burn or we would be screwed
