40TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_010I am Lalai, a thaumaturge of the Order. It is my charge to give guidance to those who visit our Milvaneth Sacrarium in search of it.
51TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_011Sadly, as you can very well see, we have had to close our doors while repairs are underway. As such, we have had no visitors of late, and I find myself with a wealth of spare time.
62TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_013As a servant of Nald'thal, it saddens me that I have had to put aside my sacred duties for the nonce. I am, however, glad to be afforded the freedom to pursue my interests in the arcane.
73TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_000What business brings you to Milvaneth Sacrarium, friend?
84TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_Q1_000_001What would you like to ask?
95TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_A1_000_001Tell me about yourself.
106TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_A1_000_002What is a black mage?
117TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_A1_000_003Nothing.
128TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_020The origins of black magic can be traced back many, many years─to the beginning of the Fifth Astral Era, to be precise. There lived at that time in Eorzea a powerful sorceress named Shatotto, who strived to push the destructive power of magic to its very limits.
139TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_021The typical practice of magi is to weave magic using their own aether. The ability to do so is the greatest magical gift, yet at the same time that gift's greatest limit.
1410TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_022Shatotto was able to overcome such inherent limitations by developing a new technique which allowed her to draw upon the aether all around her as the fount of her magic. It was this technique that came to be known as black magic.
1511TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_023To take up the mantle of black mage is to revive this ancient art and command the aether everywhere to one's will.
1612TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_024Following the War of the Magi and the Sixth Umbral Calamity, however, black magic was branded far too great a danger to life, and so its use and even its mere mention were made forbidden. Over time, it came to be forgotten entirely. Or so it was thought...
1713TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_025This changed one hundred years ago, when a prophet among mages stepped forth to revive this ancient and unrivaled art. That man was none other than my master and mentor, Ququruka Tataruka.
1814TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_030<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight> of the black returns. What business brings you back to the Sacrarium?
1915TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_040<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight> of the black. Bringing to justice the vile thieves that stole the Book of Thal will be no trivial task. Have you mastered the destructive powers needed to do so?
2016TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_050<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight> of the black. The power within you grows. I daresay it now surpasses that of even the great Ququruka.
2117TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_060<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight> of the black. In joining Mistress Shatotto to deliver our realm from certain doom, your mastery of the art of destruction will be tested as never before. Slack not in your studies for even a moment.
2218TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_065<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight> of the black. The very founder of our ancient art has entrusted you with carrying on her legacy. I am proud to say that you, if anyone, are surely up to the task. If there is aught I can do to aid you, you need but say the word.
2319TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_Q2_000_001What would you like to ask?
2420TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_A2_000_001How fare you of late?
2521TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_A2_000_002What is a black mage?
2622TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_A2_000_003Nothing.
2723TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_100I was a fool, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. My single-minded devotion to my master blinded me to the truth, but you helped me to see...
2824TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_101It brings me much comfort to know that he found peace in the end. I would not deny his crimes, but neither can I deny the man he once was, and all that he imparted to me.
2925TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_102Were he still with us, I would call him Master still. But he is not, and few will remember his name as fondly as I do. No, these feelings I must ever keep within...
3026TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_140The book Ququruka left─the Book of Nald─is filled with secret black magic.
3127TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_141As the late master's disciple in the dark arts, I am duty-bound to see the fruits of his tireless research preserved.
3228TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_142I shall decipher the mysteries within the tome, and teach to you the destructive magicks therewithin. With this power, we shall recover the grimoire's twin─the Book of Thal!
3329TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_150We have finally recovered both books of Nald'thal. And such fascinating books they are!
3430TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_151The further I delve into the mysteries described within, the more awed I am by Ququruka's devotion to the dark arts─and the destructive power that his devotion unlocked.
3531TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_152I shall not let these grimoires leave my sight. I cannot suffer to see them fall once more into the hands of some crazed madman. The War of the Magi has shown us the dangers inherent in these powers.
3632TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_160To feel the memory of Mistress Shantotto slumbering within me is a most curious sensation. I can feel the vastness of her knowledge, yet at the same time it is ever elusive, just outside my comprehension.
3733TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_161Yet though I cannot grasp the full scope of her power, there could be no greater honor than to be chosen as a vessel by the mother of our art.
3834TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_162It would seem she has high hopes for you as well, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. You have my word that I will assist the both of you in any way I can.
3935TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_165I spend the better part of my days with quill in hand, recording every last detail of your adventures with Mistress Shatotto. I must say, just reading the words on the page is at times so thrilling my hair stands on end.
4036TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_166Reflecting back on all I have seen, I have come to a realization. Nothing has given me more pleasure than to watch your mastery of the art of destruction reach nigh-legendary heights.
4137TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_167Now that Mistress Shatotto herself has chosen you, there can be no doubt. <Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight> of the black─your name will go down in the annals of history with the greatest mages ever to walk this land.
4238TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_170While I cannot say I enjoy having to file these excruciatingly detailed reports to Master Cocobuki, it is indeed most liberating to be able to continue my arcane pursuits with the full blessing and support of the Order.
4339TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_171To think the day would come when I could peruse the myriads of tomes archived in the Ossuary in broad daylight! Needless to say, there is virtually boundless knowledge that may yet be reaped from this.
4440TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_172By comparing my own findings to those of Master Ququruka, I might learn much of how our art has changed and evolved as it was passed down through the years, and perhaps even unearth and revive aspects of it that have been lost to time.
4541TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_173I see Yayake muttering and mumbling to herself each time I walk past her on the way to the archives, but I say: let her mutter! I have never let the worries of smaller minds get in the way of my research, and I do <Emphasis>not</Emphasis> intend to start now.
4642TEXT_JOBDEFBLM_00096_LALAI_000_110Hm. I would think that <Emphasis>you</Emphasis> of all people, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>, would know the answer to that. And yet given the nature of our dark art, perhaps it is for the best that you would not forget whence our power comes...
