#febhyurary 2026#febhyurary#high allagan bullshit#unei i#elia benet#cesario#OK SO.#backstory ramble time: the crystal tower was conceived by a man named sebastian who received visions of the tower#he dedicated his life to the development of the tower sending countless petitions to the emperor#until one day on a whim he sent his court magician (elia yay) to ~investigate the veracity of the claims and the character of the petitione#(as much to give her something to Do as like. any actual interest in the tower. plus he had a hunch hydaelyn was all over this thing)#(hunch correct it turns out)#elia meets sebastian and his apprentices? disciples? and decides to Help Them and advocate for the construction of the tower#it takes decades to construct (and many missteps and misgivings along the way which is Where All The Angelo Drama Comes From)#and sebastian does not live to see its completion#BUT he is reincarnated as a grandson of the emperor - cesario - who also receives edicts about the tower#and who joins the tower construction team to see it finished#so the tower advocacy and construction team is: Sebastian and Later Cesario; Angelo and Shelco (Sebastian's proteges); and Elia (liaison)
