40TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SEQ_00The Scions of the Seventh Dawn stand ready for the finale.
51TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SEQ_01Having come this far together, everyone's resolve is beyond doubt, and there is little left to say. All that remains is to sally forth into the Dead Ends on your way to your reckoning with Meteion. ※To enlist your companion NPCs for this duty, speak with them near the entrance or access Duty Support via the main menu. Use the Duty Finder if you wish to complete the instance alongside fellow players.
62TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SEQ_02With your staunch comrades at your side, you cut a path through foes born of despair to arrive at the innermost part of the Dead Ends. Just beyond lies the heart of Meteion's dominion, and you steel yourself for the confrontation to come. ※In the event that you leave the area, you may return from Absolute Horizon in Ultima Thule.
73TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SEQ_03After a journey through time immemorial and space immeasurable, you finally come face-to-face with the true Meteion. The familiar marshals the despair of countless ruined stars to arise as the Endsinger, and unleashes her might against you. Though you fight resolutely, one after another your comrades are overpowered, and it is all you can do to activate your teleporter and deliver them to safety. Just when it seems you must contend with your fearsome foe alone, help arrives in the most unexpected of forms─Zenos as a dragon. Though his foremost desire as ever remains glorious battle with you, he lends you his wings that you might first dispense with the distraction. Thus do you take to the air, to silence the song of oblivion once and for all. ※The Final Day can be accessed via the Duty Finder.
84TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SEQ_04In a struggle between hope and despair, the stakes no less than the continued existence of life itself, the Endsinger brings her all to bear against you. More than once, the mighty being pushes you beyond your limits, but given strength by the prayers of your comrades, you weather the relentless onslaught to deliver the decisive blow. In defeat the Endsinger falls, and you descend after her. ※In the event that you leave the area, you may return from Absolute Horizon in Ultima Thule.
95TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SEQ_05Amidst an endless darkness, you find Meteion alone, as the familiar she once was. You share with her all that you felt during your journeys─from sweetest triumphs to bitterest defeats─and by this act, she finally finds the answer which she had sought all along. Filled with joy for the discovery and remorse for her deeds, she offers to sing one last song before she falls forever silent─a song of hope unbridled─and creates a path to deliver you back to your comrades. But ere you leave, Zenos arrives to issue you challenge. Though he allows you the choice to walk away, it is past time to put an end to this chapter─and him.
106TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SEQ_06At the end of a grueling encounter, you succeed in laying Zenos low and gifting him the bliss for which he hungered. However, you succumb to your own injuries and collapse to the ground. Your opponent breathes his last, and it seems you are destined to share his grave at the edge of existence...
117TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SEQ_07Miracles happen every day. And this day, a miracle─one borne upon hopes, perhaps─has delivered you unto the <Emphasis>Ragnarok</Emphasis>, where you awaken surrounded by caring comrades. Though you have felt better, you are very much alive, and make a triumphant return to beautiful Etheirys, having delivered salvation to the world. Some time later, the Scions of the Seventh Dawn gather at the Rising Stones for the final time. For as has been decided, the order shall disband─albeit only in appearance. Having done its part to usher in lasting change, it will retreat from plain sight, and instead work unobtrusively to solve the problems that plague the realm. Ere you and your comrades go your separate ways, Tataru bids everyone leave no preparations undone or words unsaid.
128TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SEQ_08You take a moment to speak with each of your comrades, and hear their respective plans and aspirations. Though your destinations be disparate, and you will work apart for the foreseeable future, ever will you be united by your unseverable ties as Scions. Having said all that needs be said, you turn to inform Tataru that you are ready to set forth.
139TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SEQ_09Thus are the Final Days averted, and the curtain falls on a tale spanning eons. Gone are those ancient gods who had steered the course of the world, and none can say what lies ahead. Yet one thing is certain: where there is life, there is hope. A light that pierces the deepest darkness. And so long as we hold fast to it, ever will we shine a way unto the morrow. Bearing the memories of your journey thus far, of those whose lives you have touched, and who have touched you in turn, you look forward to the tales still to come.

5248TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_000Let's usher in an ending worthy of the grandest ovation─one that will give all Etheirys cause to raise their voices in celebration!
5349TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_010Are you ready, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>?
5450TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_011Then let us set forth for the reckoning.
5551TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_012Having come this far, I know everyone's resolve is beyond doubt. So I will say only this.
5652TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_013Within that dead sun swirls the emotions that Meteion has hoarded. The emotions of innumerable souls who strove for happiness but failed.
5753TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_014As it was with the denizens of Ultima Thule that barred our way, it is not for us to rebuke and admonish.
5854TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_015'Twas not by passing judgment on the tragic legacies of others that we arrived at this moment.
5955TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_016Rather, it was by opening our hearts to their despair─by understanding and acknowledging their fates, while still refusing to share in them ourselves. To hold fast to hope, not in ignorance but by choice.
6056TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_017Should you struggle to do so, I am here to help. As you have all helped me.
6157TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_Q1_000_018What will you say?
6258TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_A1_000_019We will prevail!
6359TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_A1_000_020Everyone's going home today. Understood?
6460TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_A1_000_021Let's put an end to the end.
6561TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SCIONS_000_022(-All-)Aye!
6662TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_Q2_000_030What will you do?
6763TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_A2_000_031Small talk.
6864TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_A2_000_032Form a party and enter the Dead Ends.
6965TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_A2_000_033Nothing.
7066TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_040Emet-Selch and Hythlodaeus created these flowers from our hopes.
7167TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_041If so, mine and Alisaie's shall live on here...
7268TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_042The hope that you will find happiness at journey's end.
7369TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_043So let us go, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>, and see this tale to its conclusion!
7470TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_045Just so you know, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>, I won't try to keep up with you in the coming battle.
7571TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_046No, I mean to <Emphasis>surpass</Emphasis> you! If there's anyone who'll need to keep up, it's Estinien!
7672TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_047I'm not joking. Both Alphinaud and I have worked hard and come far. It's time we set our sights higher.
7773TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_048So you had better watch out, else you'll find yourself in my wake!
7874TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_THANCRED_000_050It seems our arms and armor are in order, as are our personal effects.
7975TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_THANCRED_000_051Most importantly, we have each other. We need only finish what we came here to do.
8076TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_THANCRED_000_052Avert the end. For Minfilia, for Ryne, for all who aspire to live.
8177TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_URIANGER_000_055Thus far, we have encountered recreations of some few stars. Doubtless they account for but a fraction of the innumerable worlds to whose fall Meteion did bear witness.
8278TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_URIANGER_000_056Roiling with torment, the dead sun is forsooth oblivion's apotheosis. It shall be no small coup to breach this nexus of despair.
8379TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_URIANGER_000_057And yet, as this vista doth prove, where there is hope, there is a way. So let us press forward together, as e'er we have, and find our way unto victory.
8480TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_YSHTOLA_000_060As Alphinaud says, everyone's resolve is beyond doubt. Yet ere we set forth, there is a thought to which I must give voice.
8581TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_YSHTOLA_000_061While you were in Elpis, I understand that people assumed you were a familiar.
8682TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_YSHTOLA_000_062In contrast, those phantoms we encountered in the recreated Amaurot regarded us as children.
8783TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_YSHTOLA_000_063As people, albeit naive and immature.
8884TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_YSHTOLA_000_064The discrepancy, I posit, is a reflection of their creator's perspective. Having spent eons among sundered men, perhaps he came to acknowledge us, even if only subconsciously.
8985TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_YSHTOLA_000_065With Emet-Selch gone, we may never learn the truth. But I will not suffer this and countless other mysteries to go unsolved. Our journey will not end this day.
9086TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_GRAHATIA_000_070I am returned, thanks to you, but we still have work to do if we are to make our promise a reality.
9187TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_GRAHATIA_000_071Having you show me the sights in Ishgard, then regaling me your greatest adventures, then embarking on a new adventure together... For these things and more, I will fight.
9288TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_GRAHATIA_000_072...What? Could there possibly be an adventure greater than this one?
9389TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_GRAHATIA_000_073Of course! So long as you desire it and dare to take the first step, there is absolutely no limit!
9490TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ESTINIEN_000_075So, the moment of reckoning is finally upon us... I must say, when I pledged myself to your cause, never did I imagine that it would bring me to the very edge of existence.
9591TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ESTINIEN_000_076Not that I'm complaining, mind you. After casting aside vengeance and shedding title and duty, I found myself wanting for purpose. In journeying with you, there has been nary a dull moment.
9692TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ESTINIEN_000_077In the course of it all, I feel as though I have found a new place for myself. And a welcome opportunity to see how much the boy has grown.
9793TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ESTINIEN_000_078I owe you a debt, aye. But as you can guess, I've ever preferred to express my gratitude through action rather than word. My lance is yours.
9894TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_Q3_000_080Proceed to the Final Day?

10096TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_SYSTEM_000_095You must be a Disciple of War or Magic of level 90 or above to proceed.
10197TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_TATARU_000_100Go on, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>! Don't miss this chance to say a word to each of our friends!
10298TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_TATARU_000_101After all you've been through together, I'm sure they'd appreciate it!
10399TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_110Oh, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. Pray forgive me for delaying the gathering.
104100TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_111I was writing a letter, you see. To my parents.
105101TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_112As busy as Father has been, tending the aftermath of the exodus, he has been good enough to show concern for the Scions.
106102TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_113And besides...I've made them worry enough for a lifetime. Henceforth, I will endeavor to write as often as I am able.
107103TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_114A little effort to set their minds at ease while we continue to be away from Sharlayan.
108104TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_115Both Alisaie and I are off to assist with Garlemald's recovery, you see. Though uncertainty remains over what will become of the nation, we cannot well leave the capital in its present state.
109105TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_116We will rejoin those members of the Ilsabard contingent still stationed there. Lucia and Maxima helm the relief effort, with support from our allies─the people of Garlemald among them.
110106TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_117They will gradually be joined by those who have finished treating the tempered across the lands.
111107TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_118Lest you misunderstand, we do not seek redemption for failing Licinia and her sister. That is a burden we must always bear.
112108TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_119Nay, we go because of the truth in Lord Quintus's words.
113109TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_120The truth that, whatever ideals individuals may espouse, nations are not moved to action unless they stand to benefit...
114110TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_121For the foreseeable future, the fallen Empire will be at the mercy of both internal and external forces.
115111TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_122And though I do not doubt the intentions of the contingent, with greater powers involved in the relief effort, our allies may well find themselves drawn into a political agenda.
116112TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_123In going, we seek to ensure that the needs of the people come first. To understand their hearts, that we might better help them to begin anew.
117113TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_Q5_000_124What will you say?
118114TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_A5_000_125You'd best write me too.
119115TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_A5_000_126I'll visit when I can.
120116TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_127Write you letters? Of course I would be glad to do so...
121117TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_128But I would be gladder still were you to come and visit, and I believe I speak for Alisaie as well.

127123TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_134Thank you, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. From the bottom of my heart.
128124TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_140I've been keeping Arenvald abreast of the situation in letters, but unfortunately he could not be here today.
129125TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALPHINAUD_000_141When it is convenient for both of us, we should pay him a visit.

132128TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_152Oh, in case you hadn't heard, we've received new reports detailing the devastation caused by the Final Days.
133129TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_153It appears the situation is gravest in the lands surrounding the Bounty, where the sky first began to burn.
134130TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_154After that, the calamity was observed in the far north─in Garlemald and the frozen lands beyond.
135131TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_155We also had reports of the heavens catching fire in isolated locations, one of which was an area in the Northern Empty. Had our quest taken any longer, Sharlayan too may have come under threat.
136132TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_156Thank goodness it's over now.
137133TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_157To be sure, blasphemies and lesser beasts may still be roaming about, but these localized crises should be well within the capacities of each nation to handle on their own. The Scions are no longer needed.
138134TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_158Which isn't to say that we won't help out where we can, of course. As individuals─no more of this order business.
139135TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_159For my part, I'll be heading to Garlemald with Alphinaud. They were among the worst affected, and still need all the help they can get.
140136TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_160It won't be easy...

143139TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_163But no matter how much it hurts, I won't give up.
144140TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_164I'll do what I can for as many people as I can, begrudging no effort.
145141TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ALISAIE_000_165And should I find myself discouraged, I'll remember you. Think back fondly to one of your many moments of triumph and the accompanying determined expression.

161157TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_THANCRED_000_191...Ahem, that sounded more amusing in my head. Speaking of heads, I was worried about yours─and the rest of you, for that matter. On the mend, I trust?
162158TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_THANCRED_000_192Glad to hear it. You were in a bad way, and healing magicks or no, I'm impressed by how swiftly you've recovered...

291287TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ESTINIEN_000_343That is their legacy and their triumph.
292288TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ESTINIEN_000_344In my lance, I feel the weight of their struggle and the strength of their resolve. And it lends me strength.
293289TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ESTINIEN_000_345These things, I might never have learned had I not joined you.
294290TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ESTINIEN_000_346Should you ever have need of me, I will come. At the very least, it might be an opportunity to earn coin.

296292TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ESTINIEN_000_351Those who vanquish the being and present proof in Radz-at-Han will receive a handsome reward. Though “handsome” isn't the word I would use to describe such outlandish garb...
297293TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_ESTINIEN_000_352But while I'm in Thavnair, perhaps I will acquire a set to send to Aymeric in lieu of an answer to his job offer. Let him stand guard thus attired and be the talk of Empyreum, if not all Coerthas.
298294TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_360Oh, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. How are you feeling? Any lingering aches or pains?
299295TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_361I can't apologize enough for sending Zenos to find you in Ultima Thule...
300296TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_362When he came to me in Sharlayan, I was truly torn. As ever, there was only one thing on his mind.
301297TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_363Forced to make a decision, I reasoned that, if he would not be deterred from seeking you out, he might at least aid us in our cause. And so I struck a bargain...
302298TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_364In the end, he was true to his word, and you defeated him despite your earlier exertions. But knowing the state you were found in, it could have ended very differently.
303299TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_365My decision almost cost you your life, and no words could express the remorse I feel...
304300TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_Q12_000_366What will you say?
305301TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_A12_000_367It worked out. You did the right thing.
306302TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_A12_000_368I won't lie─I thought that was it for me.
307303TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_369It is a relief to hear you say that. Thank you.
308304TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_370So did everyone... I'm so sorry, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>...
309305TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_371Time and time again, I've been made to feel woefully inadequate.
310306TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_372I wasn't much use in battle, nor could I face the Forum without my nerves getting the better of me. It always fell to you and the others.
311307TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_373I must─and will─do better.
312308TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_374And I shall begin with the restoration of the Students of Baldesion. Through our work, Sharlayan will strengthen its ties with other nations, that we may be better prepared to face whatever threats arise in future.
313309TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_375Of course, this isn't something I can accomplish alone. But thankfully, I have the staunchest of help in Raha and Ojika and our other remaining members. Together, we'll continue Grandfather's work.
314310TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_376As before, certain commissions will take us to dangerous locales, and we may need to call upon seasoned adventurers.
315311TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_377In such times, might you be willing to assist us? Not because you feel obliged, mind you, but because you feel allure for the task itself.
316312TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_378Marvelous. Should something of interest arise, I shan't hesitate to reach out to you.
317313TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_379Until that day, I shall endeavor to become a more dependable comrade.
318314TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_385Oh, I should mention that Erenville has kindly agreed to share aught of potential interest he hears from his fellow gleaners.
319315TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_386In exchange, we will help them to restore the archives to their proper order. With the exodus abandoned, all items must be returned whence they came─a task no less grueling than their removal.
320316TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_387Even now, Ojika assists in the sorting of arcane artifacts. Oh yes, not only is he a skilled administrator─he's also a certified appraiser specializing in relics from the Fifth Astral Era!
321317TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_KRILE_000_388Despite his qualifications, though, he seems none too keen on the work. I shall have to go and relieve him as soon as I can...
322318TEXT_AKTKMG115_04464_TATARU_000_390Spoken your fill, have you? If so, I'm thinking to send everyone off.
