40TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_SEQ_00Unukalhai has urgent news to share on the current state of the Warring Triad.
51TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_SEQ_01According to Unukalhai, aetheric readings taken by Y'shtola in the aftermath of the VIth Legion's recent intrusion indicate that the eikon Sophia is close to awakening. Make haste to Azys Lla and rendezvous with the masked youth on the Flagship, in readiness to put the ancient goddess down.
62TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_SEQ_02Barely have you joined Unukalhai when the ground begins to rumble to the sound of nearby battle. In the next moment, a breathless Krile appears and announces that Y'shtola and Urianger have engaged an unknown band of assailants. You hurry to the scene of the conflict to find a trio of strangers whom you determine to be thralls of the eikon Sophia. Though they do not linger long, they leave you with the words of an ominous prophecy, and the fear that their mistress may have already awoken in possession of all her terrible might. Time is of the essence. Summon your faithful comrades to your side and cast down the dread Goddess lest all be judged upon her scales! ※Containment Bay P1T6 can be accessed via the Duty Finder.
73TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_SEQ_03You have banished Sophia into the aether. Make your way back to the Flagship.
84TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_SEQ_04Following your victory over the Goddess, Y'shtola muses on the reason for her rapid awakening─a question to which Unukalhai and Krile soon provide an answer. According to their investigation, the eikon enslaved the will of a careless Garlean soldier and commanded him to release her thralls. Allagan records also speak of a failed plot to exploit a flaw introduced into the machinery of Sophia's prison─a scheme that came dangerously close to being enacted millennia later. Even as you make your way back to the Rising Stones and Unukalhai, you are haunted by the thought of what might have come to pass had the Goddess been suffered to escape her fetters.
95TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_SEQ_05You rejoin Unukalhai in Revenant's Toll, where you witness Y'shtola berating the masked youth for seeming to place you on a pedestal. Their differing views on what can and cannot be expected of you apart, all seem to agree that the last pillar of the Warring Triad must fall, and that only with its destruction will the world finally be free of the existential threat posed by Azys Lla.

5248TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_000Warrior of Light, if this world is to survive, we must needs move forward with our plan─another pillar of the Warring Triad must be toppled.
5349TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_001The question of <Emphasis>which</Emphasis> has already been answered. Following our encounter with the legatus, Archon Y'shtola detected erratic aetheric waveforms emanating from the sector containing the eikon Sophia, known simply as “the Goddess” in former times. Such readings can mean only one thing...
5450TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_002She is close to wakening. Let us return to Azys Lla forthwith and put an end to this primal deity lest she rise again in all her terrible glory.
5551TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_050Make your preparations, Warrior of Light. The eikon Sophia stirs, and we must needs return to Azys Lla with all haste.
5652TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_080We appear to be the first to arrive. Shall we await our colleagues here?
5753TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_100Hm? Could the VIth Legion have returned...?
5854TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_KRILE_000_101<Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>! Unukalhai!
5955TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_KRILE_000_102We're under attack! Y'shtola and Urianger have engaged the foe not far from here!
6056TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_SERVANTONE_000_103Hah! Rarely is my shield thus tested! 'Twould seem the Allagans have not been lax in their recruitment!
6157TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_SERVANTTWO_000_104Think you so? Mayhap your arm merely withered whilst you lay idle.
6258TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_SERVANTTHREE_000_105Still your tongues! We have stalled them long enough!
6359TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_SERVANTONE_000_106“With scales in hand, the Goddess shall arise, And righteously cast off Her cursèd pall, That She, with wrathful Wyrmking at Her side, Might judge and thence bring balance unto all.”
6460TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_SERVANTONE_000_107Hear my words and despair, Allagans! Our Goddess is awoken! Your civilization has birthed the instruments of its own undoing!
6561TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_108'Tis well that you are here, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. I should like to know what our assailants were saying. You understood their words, did you not?
6662TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_URIANGER_000_109'Twas a Meracydian dialect, if mine ears do not deceive─though one which beareth scant resemblance to any spoken in recent times. As for our antagonists' meaning...I do gladly defer to those blessed with the Echo.
6763TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_KRILE_000_110The one with the shield seemed to think we were Allagans. He recited what sounded like a verse of prophecy, then claimed that their “Goddess is awoken”... Is that about right, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>?
6864TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_111And might we assume that this deity of theirs is the very eikon we've come to topple?
6965TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_URIANGER_000_112Aye. From their tongue, their words, and their attire, 'tis like that our antagonists were Meracydian─thralls to the Goddess Sophia and victims of the Allagans' incursions.
7066TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_URIANGER_000_113If, as Krile claimeth, they thought us agents of Allag, 'tis little wonder that they sought to bring us low.
7167TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_114You suggest that Sophia's servants have been liberated from their containment!? Then we have no choice but to accept word of her awakening as truth.
7268TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_KRILE_000_115Gods help us! The Warring Triad have proven formidable enough when we've roused them with a fraction of their true strength. Should Sophia break free at the peak of her powers, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/> and <If(PlayerParameter(4))>her<Else/>his</If> friends won't stand a chance!
7369TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_116Let us be about it, then. <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>, Krile, Unukalhai─the three of you will make directly for Sophia's containment facility. Urianger and I will do what we can to occupy the eikon's thralls.
7470TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_117Mistress Krile─do you perchance recall the words of the prophecy in its entirety?
7571TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_KRILE_000_118Ah, let me see... I believe it was, “With scales in hand, the Goddess shall arise, And righteously cast off Her cursèd pall, That She, with wrathful Wyrmking at Her side, Might judge and thence bring balance unto all.”
7672TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_120"Bring balance unto all...“ One suspects their notion of bringing balance has little to do with fostering harmony.
7773TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_130I see the Goddess is no more. Well done. Once Krile and Unukalhai have rejoined us, we may safely depart.
7874TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_131...One thing yet puzzles me, however. How did Sophia's servants come to wake from their slumber?
7975TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_KRILE_000_132I believe we have the answer to that!
8076TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_133We discovered the remains of a Garlean soldier in an adjacent sector of the containment facility. 'Tis like that the fool ventured too close to Sophia during the Empire's previous incursion, and was enthralled for his troubles.
8177TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_134Another reminder, if any were needed, as to the incalculable threat posed by these beings. The Goddess would not even have been conscious when she claimed the man's will. And yet his mistake granted her the means to release her servants, and would have resulted in her own liberation had we not been on hand to intervene.
8278TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_URIANGER_000_135I do much wonder that the eikon's pawn was capable of so effectively manipulating the facility's containment systems. How came he by such rarefied knowledge?
8379TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_136That too is easily explained. During our investigation, Krile discovered a subtle flaw in one of the mechanisms which held the Goddess in check. A flaw which had plainly been added intentionally. Upon examining the facility's records of the period, we were able to piece together the story.
8480TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_137It was a time towards the end of the Third Astral Era, when the peoples of Meracydia faced extinction at the hands of the Allagan Empire. Sophia, a being of incomparable cunning, was said to have communicated certain plans to her servants through the medium of a trusted oracle.
8581TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_138Following the oracle's instructions, they duly conspired with a rebel faction within Allag who, we believe, agreed to tamper with the prison intended for Sophia. And then the Goddess and her thralls chanced to be captured─though we suspect that this had always been their plan.
8682TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_KRILE_000_139Indeed. The prison was situated at the heart of Allag, and we think they intended to attack the city from within. They would merely have had to wait for the rebels to exploit the weakness in their confines.
8783TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_140But the conspirators' dealings with the Meracydians were exposed before they could enact their plot, and all were summarily executed. It seems that the flaw itself remained undiscovered, however, and might have remained so until the end of days had it not been for the actions of the archbishop, and subsequently the Garleans.
8884TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_KRILE_000_141I cannot help but wonder what might have come to pass had their scheme been successful. Mayhap the answer lies in the prophecy.
8985TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_URIANGER_000_142Krile hath the right of it. Its words may be deciphered thus: the “cursèd pall” speaketh of Sophia's prison, from which she was supposed to emerge at the agreed hour. The “Wyrmking,” meanwhile, can be none other than great Bahamut himself, then yet a prisoner, whom the Goddess did intend to unleash upon Allag to set right the scales of justice.
9086TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_143A foolhardy plan. Had it come to fruition, the two of them would surely have razed the realm. Naught would have been spared the devastation, the Meracydians' homeland included.
9187TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_144Their home already stood on the brink of oblivion. Mayhap they wished for naught else but to purge the poison of Allag with primal fire.
9288TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_URIANGER_000_145The tale teacheth us that even the greatest of man's creations may yet be brought low by a single act of treachery. The Allagans were fools to place their trust in technological bondage. To shackle such beings is but to delay the inevitable. Naught save their total destruction shall free us from their menace. Let us return now to the Rising Stones, and there consider the final step of this most needful task.
9389TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_146The threat posed by this facility is far greater than you imagine, Urianger...and one not limited to the eikons themselves. Sophia's remaining servants must be put down.

9793TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_170Is aught amiss, Warrior of Light? Archon Y'shtola mentioned that there was a matter she wished to discuss.
9894TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_200Well met, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. You will forgive me if I seem curt, but I would settle an account with our young friend.
9995TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_201While conducting a final sweep of Sophia's containment facility, we discovered that all of her remaining thralls had perished in their stasis chambers. This was your doing?
10096TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_202Aye. It was. I chose to act upon the knowledge revealed within the tomestone we recovered. The true purpose of these prisons is far more horrifying than we first assumed...
10197TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_203The Allagans were not simply observing the eikons and siphoning away their energies─they were conducting experiments in preparation for a far more <Emphasis>ambitious</Emphasis> project.
10298TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_204If you'll recall, both the Fiend and the Goddess were imprisoned within massive spherical structures. These spheres were the prototypes which paved the way for the successful construction of an artificial celestial body...
10399TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_205You speak of Dalamud.
104100TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_206Aye. The eikons' cages are unmistakably of the same design as the red moon. To be plain: the research facility contains the seeds of <Emphasis>three</Emphasis> calamities which might feasibly be visited upon a chosen target.
105101TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_207Eliminating one of them necessitated the destruction of the Goddess's slumbering thralls─a distasteful task unbefitting one such as the Warrior of Light. Thus did I resolve to perform the deed myself.
106102TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_100_207You have made your case, and 'tis apparent that we were not in full possession of the facts. Nevertheless...
107103TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_208Your notion of what may or may not be expected of <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/> is presumptuous in the extreme.
108104TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_209When the Warrior of Light chose to join the Scions, <If(PlayerParameter(4))>she<Else/>he</If> did so in the knowledge that <If(PlayerParameter(4))>she<Else/>he</If> would be required to face and destroy not only the primals, but also their fanatical servants. That which you term “a distasteful task” is an essential part of our calling─a burden which every Scion is sworn to shoulder.
109105TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_210...I see. 'Twould seem I misjudged the depth of your resolve.
110106TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_211No matter. Assuming I have made myself understood, we need not speak of it again. There is, however, one other subject which merits discussion.
111107TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_212You determined that Sophia's thralls were awoken by a Garlean soldier who had somehow gained access to the containment area, did you not? If that is the case, it seems highly doubtful that the interloper wandered into such a dangerous part of the facility by chance.
112108TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_213Dissidents within the Empire claim that the VIth Legion is rife with agents under orders to thwart the legatus's mission by any means necessary.
113109TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_214Lest you imagine that we have allies in Garlemald, I should clarify that their motive is wholly uncharitable. Regula van Hydrus rose to the top of the Garlean military on merit alone, and is fiercely loyal to the Emperor for recognizing his efforts. His compeers, by contrast, rose through the favor of the established order, and would accordingly do anything to see him fail.
114110TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_UNUKALHAI_000_215That they would be so <Emphasis>reckless</Emphasis>... You truly believe that the actions of these agents contributed to the recent crisis?
115111TEXT_HEAVNY231_02332_YSHTOLA_000_216Aye─and that they pose no less a risk to the realm than those loyal to the Emperor. Plainly, we must needs continue to do all in our power to prevent the technologies of Allag from falling into the hands of man. On that point, at least, we have ever been in complete agreement.
