    Summary

    Set after 6.0, Vrtra/Estinien, spoilers for MSQ and level 70 DRG quests.

    "The first song I knew came from my sire. A dirge, which became the lullaby that Midgardsormr sang to us in the egg on the long flight between the stars. It is a song I have never forgotten, despite all the ages of mankind which have risen and fallen since."

    "A lullaby?" Distracted away from his assessment of Vrtra's injuries, Estinien smirks at the idea of the greatest of dragons crooning like a doting nursery attendant. "What was it like?"

    Bemused, Vrtra only inclines his head. "Shall I recite it for thee?"

    Summary

    The Warrior of Light answers the call to the First and among the light-ravaged land of Norvrandt finds something wholly unexpected: the time and the peace to remember what it is to be merely human rather than the Weapon of Light. The allies he kept at arm's length so long become family, and finally, here in this most doomed of lands, is some comfort from war and all it has taken from him.

    Or

    The Exarch will stop at nothing to save his inspiration, even from the darkness inside the Warrior of Light's own heart and mind.

    Summary

    “Mementos is gone, yes, and both the God of Control and his successor have withdrawn, but there is…a remnant, sticking to the other side like a thorn into flesh. With the power of a Trickster, it can be safely removed.”

    (Akechi’s got a Palace, sort of, and Akira’s the only one who can enter it. Now he just has to figure out what he’s supposed to do in a Palace with no Treasure and no Shadow--and if his tag-along even wants him to see what’s in there.)
