40TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SEQ_00Singingway is humming an unfamiliar tune.
51TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SEQ_01According to Singingway, aetherial waves with rhythmic signatures have been detected on the moon, with Heimdall's Last Sight as their source. Having found a seasoned explorer of Allagan ruins in you, and a master bard who can interpret the melodic readings in the wandering minstrel, Singingway hopes to uncover whatever message may be hidden in the emanations. So it is that your newly formed party of three agree to rendezvous in Sinus Lacrimarum.
62TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SEQ_02Handing you an amplifier, Singingway instructs you to search for the origin of the aetherial emanations in the vicinity of Heimdall's Last Sight. Once found, you are to install the device to amplify the source's signal.
73TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SEQ_03After a short search, you have found the source of the emanations atop the Heimdall-class vessel and installed the amplifier. Singingway will undoubtedly wish to hear of this.
84TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SEQ_04Analysis of the emanations reveals that for the countless millennia in which Bahamut was imprisoned within Dalamud, he sung only of his desire for vengeance...or so you are initially led to believe. Further parsing of the data reveals a secret song of hope, drowned out by the Allagans in a twisted plot to fuel the elder primal's rage. Disturbed by this revelation, Singingway wishes to realize Bahamut's true dream─to fly and be free─even if a surrogate must inherit it. As it so happens, the wandering minstrel possesses an apocryphal horn capable of manifesting such a being.
95TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SEQ_05With the power of the phantom familiars you have gathered in your travels serving as a font of aether for the ritual, you blow upon the horn, and an entity bearing a likeness to Bahamut materializes before your eyes. The wandering minstrel is inspired with a new verse on the very spot, and weaves a song which chronicles this miracle, that it may be passed down through the ages. Atop this familiar born of hope, may your adventures be boundless as the heavens.

5248TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_001Ah, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>! I've been looking all over for you!
5349TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_002As you may recall, I oversee the atmospheric circulation system on the moon. For the past several days, its internal gauges have picked up on the most unusual aetherial emanations, and I need your help deciphering them!
5450TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_003The emanations appear to be coming from the wreckage of the Heimdall in Mare Lamentorum─a vessel which, as I understand, is the product of the Allagan civilization that once flourished on Etheirys.
5551TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_004I dare not tread there alone lest some dormant mechanical abomination awaken and tear me apart. No, I must have a seasoned explorer by my side─one who has seen their fair share of Allagan ruins. You'll come, won't you? ...Please?
5652TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_005Oh, I knew you'd say yes! Thank you, my friend, thank you! All that's left is to fetch the last member of our party. Sit tight right here and I'll be back in just a moment.
5753TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_006And thus was the party of three assembled. I expect this will be quite the thrilling expedition, oh yes.
5854TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_007I will forgo introductions seeing as the two of you are already acquainted. As for how <Emphasis>I</Emphasis> came to know the minstrel, we met during my studies here in Sharlayan. I thought his insight would prove integral to our investigation.
5955TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_008Singingway tells me he detected a most distinctive rhythm in the aetherial signatures received by his atmospheric device. A rhythm which hearkens to mind the mellifluousness of a poem...
6056TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_009Which is why I petitioned his expertise. There are none better versed in the melodies of Etheirys.
6157TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_010Heimdall's Last Sight... 'Tis the ruins of the vessel which once monitored the dreadwyrm Bahamut inside his sanguine prison, Dalamud. That music of all things appears to emanate from the wreckage is...altogether intriguing.
6258TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_011Long has it been a dream of mine to visit the ashen satellite which rests in the heavens. When Singingway relayed to me his intention to petition your aid, I was all the more eager to make this first foray.
6359TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_012And glad I am to have you aboard! Once you've both seen to your preparations, let's have our emergent survey crew rendezvous on the moon in Sinus Lacrimarum!
6460TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_013To think I would one day stand upon this pale celestial orb... 'Tis truly more magnificent than I imagined. And there looming in the distance is our star, its tranquil visage bearing no hint of the devastation wrought by the Final Days...
6561TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_014Wonderful, you've arrived! Let's get down to business, shall we?
6662TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_015To begin, I would have you install an amplifier for the purposes of our investigation. Here, take this.
6763TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_016The frequency of the aetherial waves emanating from Heimdall's Last Sight are unfortunately of insufficient amplitude, but by placing this device near the source, we can boost the signal and make a more comprehensive analysis of the wavelengths.
6864TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_100_016The amplifier will indicate when you've located the signal's source. From there, you need merely wedge it right into that very spot─the antenna embedded within should boost the signal to the required output.
6965TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_017In the meantime, the minstrel and I will calibrate a supporter for analysis, and see if we can't retrieve any data from the vessel.
7066TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_018You'll find us perched nearby once you've finished. Best of luck!
7167TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_019The source of the aetherial emanations should be nearby. You need only place the amplifier where the signal is strongest.
7268TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_020'Twould seem we can remotely access the vessel's internal records from here... I must say, the technological prowess of the Loporrits is even greater than the rumors purported.
7369TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SUPPORTER04795_000_021<beep> <boop> Why hello there, person of Etheirys! I will have the data analyzed and ready for your perusal as soon as it's been fed into my inputs!
7470TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SYSTEM_000_022Nearly five thousand years after its construction, this propulsion system's core still burns bright. Yet the amplifier is silent. This is clearly not the source of the aetherial emanations.
7571TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SYSTEM_000_023A fragment of the vessel's hull, seemingly torn from the craft when it crashed onto the moon. Despite the passage of several years, the equipment remains in an impeccable state─a testament to the Allagans' ingenuity. Yet the amplifier remains unresponsive.
7672TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SYSTEM_000_024The amplifier has hummed to life in response to a blinking component on the surface of the vessel... You appear to have found the source of the aetherial emanations.
7773TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SYSTEM_000_025With the device safely installed, it is time you rejoined your companions.
7874TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_026By your countenance─and, well, by your arrival, I take it you found the source of the aetherial emanations. I will have the supporter initiate its analysis protocols immediately!
7975TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_027
8076TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_028Allow me to apprise you of the discoveries we made here in the meantime.
8177TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_029According to the records we managed to retrieve from the vessel, Bahamut was kept in a trance whilst imprisoned within Dalamud. Yet despite his stupor, emissions of his aether were detected at regular intervals.
8278TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_030When I pondered as to why this could be, I recalled the existence of the dragons' song. Dragonkind infuse their emotions with aether and express them when they roar, channeling their thoughts to their brethren to communicate.
8379TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_100_030If my suspicions are correct, we may find Bahamut's will imprinted on the aetherial emanations that have suddenly surfaced.
8480TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_031Okay, analysis complete! The data appears to have been converted into an audio format. Let's give it a listen, shall we?
8581TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SUPPORTER04795_000_040“Bring unto mine enemies...crushing...defeat... Burn their lands...their offspring...their ruination be complete...”
8682TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SUPPORTER04795_000_041
8783TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_042<Emphasis>This</Emphasis> is a dragon's song? The wrath enveloping each word is...palpable. Do you suppose it was Bahamut's years of imprisonment which gave rise to such hatred?
8884TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_043I'm afraid his rage precedes his millennia-long incarceration. The primal Bahamut was summoned forth by the dragons of Meracydia in their desperation to forestall an Allagan invasion, you see. By nature, he is the culmination of the fear and fury of those who called him from the abyss.
8985TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_044
9086TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_045
9187TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_046That's awful. Loporrits were created out of a love for mankind, yet Bahamut was born of the opposite. To then be imprisoned for thousands of years, within veritable throwing distance of where we lay dormant...
9288TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_047Wait a minute, what do we have here...another recording? Perhaps it shall provide further insight.
9389TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SUPPORTER04795_000_048“Grant hope...freedom...to my brothers...my sisters... One day...may we soar...the boundless skies...without fear...”
9490TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_049Interned within Dalamud for millennia, Bahamut yearned for a day when not only he, but his oppressed brethren could find solace in the heavens once more...
9591TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_050There's something peculiar about the data... Analysis suggests that the first song we heard was amplified and transmitted repeatedly within Dalamud, almost as if to drown the second one out...
9692TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_051The Allagans needed Bahamut to serve as Dalamud's living core─and only by fueling his hatred could they draw out his fathomless reservoirs of aether to keep the lesser moon afloat. Their cruelty knew no bounds.
9793TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_052...Urianger once told me the importance of the word which inspired my name. That to sing is to express that which comes from the heart─the purest feelings of joy, sorrow, and much, much more.
9894TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_053For Bahamut's song to have been overwritten and effectively erased... It isn't right.
9995TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_054That's why I want to fulfill his wish. I don't know how, or if it's even possible. But if it is, I need your help!
10096TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_055There is a means to give form to feeling...provided one has the appropriate instrument.
10197TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_056Yet Bahamut is long deceased. The aetherial waves recorded on this vessel are naught more than the vestiges of his unfulfilled yearnings. Even should they be realized now, we would only be easing our own consciences─and by some accounts, committing taboo. Still you would proceed?
10298TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_057I would. I wish for Bahamut...no, for all of dragonkind to know that their voice─their song─has been heard.
10399TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_058Even if it's an aberration, I wish to see Bahamut's wings beat unfettered in the skies once more!
104100TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_059And what say you?
105101TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_Q1_000_000What will you say?
106102TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_A1_000_001I wish for the same.
107103TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_A1_000_002If Singingway feels that strongly about it...
108104TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_A1_000_003Let us remember Bahamut the way he wished to live.
109105TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_060Very well. Then in light of your resolve, I shall bequeath to you this apocryphal horn. 'Tis capable of manifesting an entity which corresponds to the desires of the one who wields it.
110106TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_061When you press the instrument upon your lips, you need but keep Bahamut's song of hope in your breast. A being fit to inherit his aspirations shall surely come forth.
111107TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_062Assuming, of course, the requisite aether to give it form is available. Pray summon the phantom beings you have collected in your travels, and let their power serve as a font of energy to complete this rite.
112108TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_063Now, let us hie ourselves to a locale that can accommodate the ritual. I daresay the great abyss shall serve as a fine stage.
113109TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_070Always and ever shall we wish for mankind's happiness. But that does not mean we wish for all else to suffer.
114110TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_071It's strange when you think about it: why <Emphasis>did</Emphasis> Mother Hydaelyn create us Loporrits with such a capacity for worry?
115111TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_072Any theories as to why the vessel suddenly began to emit aetherial waves after years of silence? For my part, I believe the reason to be a fairly mundane one: deterioration over time simply caused the ship's internal components to malfunction.
116112TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_073Yet how profound 'twould be if it were Bahamut's undying yearning which awakened the vessel. Such a happening would be worthy of song, would you not agree?
117113TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_500So this is the manifestation of Bahamut's innermost desire...it's magnificent.
118114TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_501Verily. 'Tis a wyrm not of dread, but of hope, yearning to spread its wings and speed across the firmament... And it seems it has recognized our friend here as its master. Pray lend me thine ears for a moment, friends.
119115TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_502On palest moon, a wish takes wing,♪ Of hope for freedom born,♪ Aloft would dragons soar and sing,♪ The hero's heart was sworn.♪
120116TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_503Forgive me, I could not help but convey this miracle in verse─like a rushing stream, the words came tumbling forth unbidden. And for this new composition, perhaps... <Emphasis>A Moonside Wish</Emphasis> should serve as a fitting title.
121117TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_504Precious few are as blessed as you with tales of adventure. Yet despite full awareness of your past exploits with similarly fantastical creatures, never did I imagine that the manifestation of Bahamut's desire would be counted among them.
122118TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_WANDERINGMINSTREL_000_506But I digress. Atop these wings of hope, may you soar further beyond than ever before. And one day, when you have returned from your latest adventure, I pray you share the trials and tribulations of your journey with me.
123119TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_507Regarding what the minstrel said earlier... Maybe it really was a step too far to give form to Bahamut's wish. Maybe this was a selfish act─just a means to soothe my own conscience.
124120TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_508But now that I see this embodiment of a simple hope─to fly and be free─and know that it will have every opportunity to do so at your side...I'm glad we went through with it.
125121TEXT_SUBCTS829_04795_SINGINGWAY_000_509So...thank you, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. You didn't have to help, but it means the world to me that you did. Let this newborn being experience all that Bahamut was denied, and together, may both your dreams be fulfilled!
