10TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_SEQ_00Alphinaud is lost in thought, doubtless ruminating on the implications of your encounter with the Warriors of Darkness.
21TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_SEQ_01Given the relative ease with which they dispatched Ravana, it seems all but certain that the Warriors of Darkness have fought such beings before. Yet how could such exceptionally gifted individuals have escaped the notice of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn, when one of the order's founding goals was to identify and recruit adventurers blessed with the power of the Echo? Though their appearance raises many questions, their deeds cannot be denied. The Lord of the Hive is no more, and Vidofnir must be told.
32TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_SEQ_02Though surprised that he did not fall by your hand, Vidofnir is nevertheless pleased to learn of Ravana's defeat. Moreover, having received your good tidings, she offers some of her own: Hraesvelgr has entrusted her with deciding whether or not to accept Ser Aymeric's invitation. The great white dragon duly states that she will keep faith in you and journey to Ishgard. Elated by her reply, Alphinaud announces that he will convey her words to the lord commander at once. The time has come to return to the capital.
43TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_SEQ_03During the long journey back to Ishgard, you and the others share the many trials and tribulations of recent days with a rapt Thancred. Though glad to hear of your many successes, he is saddened to learn that Yda, Papalymo, and Minfilia are still missing. Seeing this, Y'shtola assures him that one day these troubles will be a distant memory─a future which Thancred pledges to do his utmost to help bring about.
54TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_SEQ_04Lucia receives the news of Vidofnir's acceptance with a mixture of happiness and regret, for Ser Aymeric is not present to hear it, having been wounded in an attempted assassination. Though he is like to make a full recovery, the attack was only the beginning; shortly thereafter, buildings throughout the city burst into flame, as part of what appears to be a coordinated─and ongoing─attack. As fast as the old fires are quenched, new ones are set. If the perpetrators are not brought to justice, there is no telling when the chaos will end.

4948TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_YSHTOLA_000_001'Twould seem the mystery of the axe-wielding Hyur has been laid to rest. I should have known better than to think Thancred would ever stoop to using such an inelegant weapon... But then how was I to know there was not *one* vagabond wandering the Chocobo Forest but two.
5049TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_KRILE_000_005He *knew* us. He knew *you*. Did he walk in our memories as we walked in his?
5150TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_THANCRED_000_010I know what you're thinking, but really, you needn't worry. It will only lend credence to my tales of heroism. Besides, battle scars are to maidens what loose morals are to gentlemen. A definite bonus.
5251TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_020Blessed with the power of the Echo, and driven to put down primals... Despite his declaration that they walk a different path, I struggle to see how their goals conflict with ours.
5352TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_021Nor is that the only oddity. I find it passing strange that such exceptional individuals should have wholly escaped our notice until now. Surely we would have heard rumors and attempted to recruit them to our cause?
5453TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_YSHTOLA_000_022I recall no such adventurers─and I would not soon forget their like. Nor would any of us, I think.
5554TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_YSHTOLA_000_023One of our primary duties was to scour the city–states for promising candidates─which is how I found Player.
5655TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_THANCRED_000_024Ah, the memories. It seems like only yesterday that you slew your first primal. Speaking of which, I had the distinct impression that it was *not* the first time that band of merry men and women had killed a god.
5756TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_YSHTOLA_000_025I labor to believe that a band of preternaturally gifted adventurers has been traveling the land, slaying primals without our knowledge. 'Twould imply gross negligence on our part.
5857TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_026Speculation will avail us naught. There is far too much we do not know.
5958TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_027For the present, we must needs concentrate on what we *do* know, namely that Lord Ravana is no more. Vidofnir must be informed. The news may render her more receptive to Ser Aymeric's invitation.
6059TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_KRILE_000_028Since you seem to have affairs here well in hand, I shall take my leave. Simply being in the vicinity of this colony is giving me a stinking headache.
6160TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_KRILE_000_029If you have need of me, I shall be with Master Matoya. I would beg her assistance with the search for Minfilia.
6261TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_THANCRED_000_030Wait─Minfilia is *missing*? I thought she escaped with Player!
6362TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_031I shall explain on the road. Much has happened in your absence...
6463TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_VIDOFNIR_000_040I had not thought to see thee again so soon, mortal. If thou seekest the knight, know that she hath long since departed for Ishgard.
6564TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_041My thanks, Vidofnir, but it was not for her that we came. We bring good tidings for you and yours. Lord Ravana, who had been summoned by the Gnath, has again been laid low.
6665TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_VIDOFNIR_000_042Truly? Once more you mortals have succeeded where mine own kind did fail. You have our deepest thanks.
6766TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_043Would that we could take credit. The god fell by another's hand.
6867TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_VIDOFNIR_000_044Another? Revelation upon revelation. Regardless, it is cause for celebration. The Gnath will have no choice but to withdraw.
6968TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_VIDOFNIR_000_045But to another matter. I have tidings for thee as well.
7069TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_046Regarding the Ishgardians' invitation?
7170TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_VIDOFNIR_000_047As promised, I brought the matter to my sire. Hearken to his answer now.
7271TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_VIDOFNIR_000_048“For a thousand years have I mourned my beloved, who gave her life to forge a peace thy king betrayed. Such was my lot, until a child of Ishgard came unto me.
7372TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_VIDOFNIR_000_049“For want of warmth, she wrapped herself in a dream. Yet the world will remember her deeds. For truth, she fought. For justice, she sinned. For redemption, she sacrificed, and became as light.
7473TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_VIDOFNIR_000_050“To follow one's heart, to have faith in one's convictions─be it for weal, or be it for woe. Such is the folly and the glory of man...and of dragon.”
7574TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_VIDOFNIR_000_051He hath entrusted the choice to us, and we have made it. We will keep faith with you who walk in the Light.
7675TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_052Then you accept Ser Aymeric's invitation?
7776TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_VIDOFNIR_000_053Let it be known that I, Vidofnir, shall journey unto Ishgard on behalf of my people.
7877TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_054
7978TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_055We are honored to receive your answer, and will convey your words to our allies without delay.
8079TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_056It is happening, Ysayle. Would that you were here to see it...
8180TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_TATARU_000_060We can celebrate Thancred's return later. You and Alphinaud are needed at the Congregation!
8281TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_YSHTOLA_000_065Fortunately, the journey afforded us ample time to brief Thancred on recent events.
8382TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_THANCRED_000_070So you slew a handful of primals, chatted with the Emperor of Garlemald, uncovered the truth behind a thousand-year war, thwarted a megalomaniacal archbishop's ambitions, and then rode home on the back of the Father of Dragons. Does that about sum it up?
8483TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_HILDA_000_075Oh good, you're back. Things got a bit heated while you were away.
8584TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_SYMME_000_080
8685TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_EUDESTAND_000_085
8786TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_VIDOFNIR_000_086When Ysayle first brought thee before me, I knew in my heart of hearts that this day would come.
8887TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_LUCIA_000_087One thing at a time, one thing at─ Forgive me, Player, I will attend you shortly.
8988TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_HANDELOUP_000_088This is a dark day for the Temple Knights. But I have faith that we shall overcome this trial.
9089TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_GIBRILLONT_000_089The city's gone mad, Player. Steer clear of the Brume if you don't want to get burned.
9190TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_090Right. Let us not keep Ser Aymeric waiting.
9291TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_091...Are you quite well, Thancred?
9392TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_THANCRED_000_092Yes─yes, quite well. Forgive me. You have given me rather a lot to digest. This whole affair with the Ishgardians and the Dravanians...and our friends nowhere to be found.
9493TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_THANCRED_100_092'Twould seem there is no end to our troubles.
9594TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_YSHTOLA_000_093We can but face them head-on, one at a time. For now, we must apply ourselves to our allotted tasks and leave the others to theirs.
9695TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_YSHTOLA_000_094Remember, Thancred─we found you, as they found me. In time, we will find Yda and Papalymo and Minfilia as well.
9796TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_YSHTOLA_000_095These troubles will soon be but a memory─one which we will look back on together.
9897TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_THANCRED_000_096Pray do not misunderstand─I did not mean to imply that it would be otherwise. I merely wish that I had rejoined our grand adventure at one of its more triumphal moments. Despite your recent accomplishments, the mood here is less than celebratory.
9998TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_THANCRED_100_096But I have no doubt that we will enjoy many more glorious victories soon enough─and you may rest assured that I will play my part in them to the very hilt.
10099TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_097I know you will. So then─to the Congregation!
101100TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_LUCIA_000_100You have returned! In this at least the fates are kind.
102101TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_101Greetings, First Commander! It pleases me to inform you that Vidofnir has accepted Ser Aymeric's invitation.
103102TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_LUCIA_000_102She has!? These are glad tidings indeed...
104103TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_LUCIA_000_103Would that the lord commander were here to hear them.
105104TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_104Ah. Is he otherwise engaged?
106105TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_HILDA_000_105Aye─sleepin' off a knife to the gut.
107106TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_ALPHINAUD_000_106*What*? What happened!? Will he live?
108107TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_LUCIA_000_107The chirurgeons tell me he will make a full recovery. But had Lord Edmont and Lord Artoirel not been on hand when the assassin struck, he would not have been so fortunate. For a mercy, they subdued the fiend before he could land the telling blow.
109108TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_HILDA_000_108The attack was just the beginnin', though. Not long after, buildings all 'round the city─includin' several of ours─burst into flame.
110109TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_HILDA_000_109Bastards caught us completely by surprise. We've been dowsin' the fires, but for every one we put out, it seems like two more start up. Casualties are mountin'─especially in the Brume.
111110TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_LUCIA_000_110'Tis plain these fires were started by the assassin's conspirators. Until they have been rounded up, there will be no end to this. Will you help us find them?
112111TEXT_HEAVNB106_02161_LUCIA_000_111Then let us be about it.
