in the stained glass of these whispered hopes // FFXIVWrite 2021

a collection of prompts focusing on my Warrior of Light, Jazzele Danzleikr, a Veena Viera hailing from the snowy forests of the Skatay Range. these fills primarily follow her lore and background, as well as her relationship with G'raha Tia, from their ARR beginnings to Shadowbringers and before Endwalker.

some prompts are explicit. most are angst filled and heartbreaking. every single one lingers with the traces of pure love and hope.

these still remain some of my most favorite pieces i've ever written, and i really hope you'll come to enjoy them too.

thank you for reading! and reblogs are appreciated!

I tried quite a few new things this year tbh, including branching out of my comfort zone to write more characters than just Jazzele and G'raha! I really enjoyed looking back at my accomplishments this year, it was fun! Thank you to everyone who took the time to read, I hope next year will be just as great! 🎉

—for all that he was sorry to ruin her surprise, the mere fact it’d been so purposefully written in Xaellic, a language he was not supposed to know, on a note he very clearly was not meant at all to read— And well… for her sake, he would not tell her that he could. 

G'raha is a little more bilingual than Dagasi expects him to be.

Jazz is a DRK main for trauma related reasons but I think after Endwalker her mental health gets a little clearer so she can take on the mantle of PLD with a lighter heart 💜 at peace with her darkness but also with her light
