i require more wols who DON’T forgive the exarch for what he did. who don’t forgive g’raha for what he did, while still having a good relationship with him

tiamat will never forgive him for what he did during 5.0, despite all else, and that’s just a thing they both have to live with. he left once, devastated her, then planned to not only leave again, but not even give her the chance at having him back before pulling a heroic suicide, managing to fuck that up and compound the upset on itself tenfold with his decisions that would have shut her out. she can’t forgive him for that bc it’s going to haunt her for a very, very long time, and no amount of apologies will undo that hurt. he knows this and it’s a regret he must simply live with.

i have a great need for more complexity with this bc there’s so much potential for rly getting into the consequences of his stunt and exploring how it would affect their trust long-term…

me n my wol who does not trust her favorite person in the world bc of the pain he inflicted on her, even if she loves him more than anything and is happy being with him. shit’s just like that sometimes

             ⚜ ⋙ the twelve ⁏ halone ( 1 / 12 )                  In the center of this heaven  rises  a  lofty                  palace of ice, made of frozen moonbeams                  and carved with the Fury’s own spear. Here                  reside epic heroes and gallant knights, the                  benevolent and the faithful. From Halone’s                  gelid palace do piercing icicles plummet to                  the Pit, creating the Hell of Ice. Here suffer                  cowards, deserters, and adulters.

“Then suddenly you’re left all alone with your body that can’t love you and your will that can’t save you.”

Rainer Maria Rilke, excerpt of “To the Younger Brother [An den jungen Bruder]”, in The Book of Hours (trans. by Anita Barrows and Joanna Macy)

Source—Und plötzlich bist du ganz allein gelassen mit deinen Händen, die dich hassen— und wenn dein Wille nicht ein Wunder tut:

…wonder why Primal Infused Thordan saw as a shadow warped monster, but Primal Infused Yotsuyu saw us as just a shining hero.

I doodled the snippet from the Knight’s Bread recipe in the FFXIV Cookbook!

“Nothing ever ends poetically. It ends and we turn it into poetry. All that blood was never once beautiful. It was just red.”
