Times they are a changin'

Dear Friends,

Something is afoot... There is a weird feeling in the air and very few answers to be found. Yesterday, a dark storm fell over the entire realm of Eorzea. A great rain fell from the sky. In the region of Thanalan, just outside of Ul'dah, a mysterious soothsayer has been seen, appearing from nowhere. He has been reported as speaking a very cryptic message:

"Hear my words if you are in search of truth…
The disaster in Hydaelyn is imminent…
The time of awakening has come for those who are preparing to tackle the chaos in motion…
The future is not immutable… You can still change it…
When the sixth sun will have set and the seventh moon shine in the sky, the ocean of clouds poured a rain of fiery flames and shadows fatal burst forth from the depths of the earth…
The “Seventh Purification” predicted by Mezaya approaches…
You who are in search of truth… wake up and put yourself against the imminent threat…"


I fear his warning harkens back to the prophecy of the 7th Umbral (a time not too far away).

Alongside thee odd reports, are the sudden discovery of crystals that have been drained of their elemental power. I have found a few of these myself, while undertaking tasks assigned to me on guildleves.


I worry that all of these strange things, the rain, and the recent prophecy of the Archons all spell a grim future. I hope you are all safe. I intend to keep my ear to the ground and investigate this further.

Hatching Tide


Dear Friends,

Ok. This is just weird. Apparently, some kind of super-hottie neo cult leader has prophecised that a slew of Archons are about to descend on Eorza. She has resorted to passing out lavishly decorated eggs as part of her attempt to get people to listen. Good news is, she's dispatched emmisarys to pay for these eggs. And umm.. the one in Gridania is pretty cute!

Anyways, the rewards for assisting are very fancy looking egg-helms. I decided to contribute by seeking out several bands of Spriggans that had been known to be hording some dodo eggs. During my quest, you'll never guess who I ran into? My OLD friend "Mojo Bone".

I have to admit it was nice having a familar face to talk to. I haven't had any real close friends since I ran into Sparkajen, and there's no telling where he's ran off to.

So, if it's your kind of thing, Happy Hatching Tide to you all!

Happy Hatching Tide!

Whaaaaa?

Dear Friends,

If my eyes do not deceive me I do believe I just saw a recruitment poster for the Grand Companies of Eorzea.  What horrible doom lies on the horizon that these armies are looking for new members?

I'm taking a "let's see approach" before deciding to involve myself too greatly.
