Glad you decided to stop by! Sit down, grab some tea, and let me tell you about my kids.
This is my main blog. It is generally dedicated to my WoL and assorted OCs, but it will also have personal posts. These will usually be tagged #Mooncat ramblings, and likewise, asks will always be tagged with #Answerin' asks. Character asks will simply have their tags as well.
Also, if you follow me, chances are I will follow back if you're a FFXIV-centric blog! I always love finding more friends and more sources of content for this game I love.
These are the characters you will see most often on this blog.
These characters are seen less often, but are still ones I love to gpose with or write about!
Among a whole host of others, I assure you
If there's anything I didn't go over here or that you're curious about, feel free to send me an ask! I'm more than happy to talk about my boys at any time!
Just finished up with the Warriors of Darkness, and oof
Florian had to bite his tongue so hard when they were meeting with the Word of the Mother. He wants to go home, same as them, but he knows there's so much left undone and he needs to see it through. At least he has the peace of mind that Minfilia won't let his home become a wasteland. Although Voeburt is already a lost cause.
I am vibrating with excitement for Shadowbringers though. On the sole basis that Ardbert is the Source shard of Azem in his canon, so he's gonna get one hell of a power-up post-Hades since the Source shard's the densest one iirc.
Kind of makes me feel a bit sorry for Elidibus once Florian's got all that extra aether. Only a bit though. >:3c
Casting high-level magic is gonna feel like breathing at that point.
With the final walk of the year done, and the convention come and gone, I should be good to go ahead and work more on Florian's MSQ now!
I will be checking back in throughout the day to reblog any more screenshot posts, so please remember to tag @acrossetheirys so I see it! In the meantime, it's back to post-HW with me!
Thank you to everyone who could make it out to a walk this year, even if you could only attend one. We had an AMAZING turnout this year for each one, which blew me away. So please know you've all made this a year of walks to remember, and I am eternally grateful for your company.
We hope to see you all again next year, as well as any new faces who wish to join us! We'll be starting in February with ARR so people have time to get through new MSQ! The dates will be posted at the start of 2027!
In the meantime, enjoy Evercold!
Also, please remember to tag us if you post any screenshots! We love sharing them here after every walk!
Good afternoon, my fellow travelers. Today is the day!
We set out on our journey tonight at 8pm (EST), but before we do, I'd like to go over what it is you might expect from this journey tonight. For those who are new, and those who may have forgotten!
First off, our Dawntrail walk will be starting on Zurvan, Materia at the courtyard of Vollok Shoonsa in Tuliyollal.
Upon arrival, please poke Ki'to Vashai for an invite to the cross-world Linkshell if you're not already on it! We will have one for the walks on each data center from here on out so we don't have to bother with PF.
And if you don't already have me friended, please send Ki'to a friend request! This is to guarantee I can grab you for the final picture, as people I don't have friended will not pause in gpose!
We'll be sitting around until showtime, at which point I will give my usual welcome, and then ask that everyone line up behind me for their snacks! Raine will be handling them again this walk, and they will take 2 trades to give out, so please do keep this in mind!
I try to give a bit of wiggle room for people who might be running late, but we will be leaving no later than 8:10 (unless something comes up that requires an extension!)
If you happen to arrive any later, please send a /tell to Ki'to Vashai and I will send you our current coordinates! Just note that we will still be moving, so you'll have to catch up! Unless we're at a rest area, of course.
Speaking of, our rest areas tonight will be at Wachunpelo, Mehwahhetsoan, and the Arcadion. Each rest area will allow everyone a 10 minute break to hydrate, visit the bathroom, or just chat amongst one another!
The walk itself should take around 2.5 hours or so depending on our pace. That said, you're welcome to come and go as you please. We won't be offended, I promise!
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please send us a DM, or send me a /tell!

For those new to DC travel to Materia, here's a handy little guide to help!
If you try to DC travel straight out the gate, you'll get this little message
What you want to do is back out to the main menu, and go to Data Center
and select Oceania!
This will bring you to OCE's servers for a time, where you can then back out and switch back to your home server.
With this, you've just "pinged" OCE, and are ready for DC travel!
Queue your desired character up from the DC travel list, and...
Voila! Off you go to claim the tag of <<Voyager>> for the night!

For our walk across the lands of Dawntrail! From scenic Tuliyollal, to the Golden City, and everywhere between!
The only requirements you need to meet are being through the expansion! If you don't have flight unlocked, please let us know! A couple areas require a little flight, so we can have a multi-seater available upon request! Otherwise, come one, come all! We'd love to see you there!
Sorry for being mostly silent here! I've been getting my Hythlodaeus cosplay ready for Connecticon this weekend! Regularly scheduled MSQ shenanigans shall resume on Sunday. xD

But the waters are warm
Where they used to run freezing
Where there used to be storms
My horizon is fleeting
I'm so tired inside
I could sleep through a landslide
But I'm finally here
And I'm not leaving this time
I've been wanting to make a proper companion piece for this for an age, so have some post-pact severing Nox & Nhea.
I was going to have him and Tartarus be a royal pain in the ass during the Final Days as well, but post-ShB made the most sense to me for this. Since Nox was brought to the First as well, and aided Nhea with the Light absorption in secret so it wouldn't kill him, he had Tartarus in a weakened state when they got back to the Source.
So, while Nhea went to wake G'raha, Nox went to the singing shards (where he was initially possessed) and used the leftover light to craft a blade of light and finally kill the voidsent for good.
And much like Estinien's sentiments post-Nidhogg, he thought he'd feel great, but all he felt was empty and tired. So he returned to the Rising Stones and sought Nhea out, as he always did when he was upset before. He explained events, and Nhea comforted him as best he could.
So, yeah. I'd like to think that Nox, Estinien, and Thancred form a 'I got possessed and all I got was exhaustion' support group come EW. xD
And now he gets to work on DRK to reckon with the leftover darkness that did belong to him. :3c
