I always feel like I owe him an apology, even though he definitely wouldn't want wol to think that way.

Vacation, day… 60? Wait, really?! Huh, that's what my tomephone says, but for some reason I could have sworn a lot more time had passed…

This place turned out to be pretty uneventful, but at least the company is good and the view is beautiful.

Kordelia Bloefiswyn/ Merlbryda Eynzahrwyn: Rogaedyn woman, lancer, dancer, culinarian, fisher, and dyslexic. 23 years old at the time of ARR and 7'9" tall. In a polyamorous triad with Urianger and Moenbryda, and will have three children: Moenbryda jr. Estinien jr. And Bismark. Only daughter of Admiral Merlwyb Bloefiswyn and Eynzahr Slafyrsyn (so far). She uses the fake name Kordelia Bloefiswyn while adventuring in order to help hide the fact that her parents are married (because fraternization), and uses Kordelia to prevent confusion with people dealing with her first name vs. Her mother's first name. She spent several years of her youth working at the Bismark, first as a waitress then as a cook, and has both passion and talent for cooking. She uses nicknames for just about everyone, usually related to how she sees their personality. During the Dragoon questline, she and Estinien become sworn siblings due to their ability to both be the Azure Dragoon, and proceeded to be even closer as brother and sister as time went on.

Regana Shielde: hyur woman, Paladin, gunbreaker, and Armorer. She 39 years old, hails from Ala Mhigo, and is the younger sister of Raubahn Aldynn with a 5 year age gap. As a young woman, Regana was infatuated with Ilberd (listen what other options were there in that village) and he even proposed to her shortly before the Garlean invasion. She took the pseudonym of Shielde to keep herself and her adopted sons Arenvald and Meteor, whom she adopted after they were each orphaned, from being arrested too. After she fled Ala Mhigo to Thanalan, Regana worked as an armorer to support herself and her sons, usually serving other refugees or traveling merchants. She dates and marries Thancred, adopts Ryne and has twins with him.

Toshasha Tosha: Lalafell woman, 20 years old, Warrior, Dark Knight, and Weaver. She served as Nanamo Ul Namo's Lady-in-Waiting for most of her life under the guidance of her mother, Gashasha Gasha the Lady-in-Waiting of the previous Sultana, until Raubahn noticed her looking at the soldiers training, and sent her away to learn how to fight so she could also serve as Nanamo's bodyguard. Dates and marries Pipin Tarupin, and has a son named Lilirya Ul Nanarya. Toshasha and Nanamo considered each other sisters because they grew up together, and during Heavensward it is revealed that they are half siblings and Toshasha is a member of the royal family, making her Toshasha Ul Tosha, 18th in the line of Ul. Tataru is her cousin, on her mother's side.

R'osi Tia: Miqo'te trans man, black mage, red mage, and alchemist with the voice of Puss in Boots. Dating G'raha Tia. He also has the Allagan eye, but as the left eye and passed down through the maternal line. He was raised almost entirely by his mother, R'shakkal Nulah as she worked as a dyemaker and colorist. After the events of the Crystal Tower raids, R'osi was so affected by G'raha's sacrifice that he sewed his Allagan eye shut, and it remained that way until the end of Shadowbringers. After the end of Shadowbringers he looses his left arm and it is replaces with a magical prosthetic made out of crystal from the Crystal Tower.

Akimune Daito: Au Ra man, Scholar, Samurai, and Goldsmith. He hails from Doma and is the adopted son of Gosetsu and foster brother of Hien, sent away to Eorzea by Hien just before his first rebellion attempt. Dated Cid Garlond, then they decided they were better off friends. Later dates Estinien. He adopts a little au ra baby girl that he names Yachiyo Daito, in order to honor Gosetsu after a certain event in Stormblood. Later he and Estinien have several other children named Gosetsu Jr. , Alberic Jr. , Ysale Jr. And Tsuyu.

Valljan Rawbewesfv: Viera man, 169 years old at the start of A Realm Reborn, 5'9, a White Mage, Sage, and leatherworker hailing from the village of Huin. He has albinism, often stays out of the sun to prevent burns and has to wear glasses due to his poor eyesight. He informally adopted Alphinaud and Alisaie upon meeting them, and during the Coils of Bahamut raids Louisouix Leveilleur officially names him their guardian. Valljan proceeds to adopt several more children upon his journey, very exasperated that everyone keeps leaving their children out where anyone can get to them! Eventually forms a polycule with Ameliance and Fourchenalt, although it takes a while for Valljan to warm up to the latter.

Rivienne Haillienarte: Duskwight Elezen woman, Bard, Machinist, and Carpenter. Has a polyamorous marriage with Hauchefant and Aymeric. She was raised by her hermit parents in a hidden corner of the Black Shroud. Her father, named Paulemont, was a son of House Haillienarte from Ishgard that was the only survivor of a dragon attack. He was nursed to health by a Duskwight woman named Selaine in the Black Shroud, and then married her and they had Rivienne. Shortly after he recovered, he knew that he'd already been gone long enough to be executed for desertion by Ishgard, so just stayed in the Shroud. Rivienne has one son named Dacien Fortemps, and one daughter named Celestine Fortemps. She has a very odd personality, her social skills being a strange mix between nonexistent and that of a high-born Ishgardian lady. Her friends growing up were just the Sylphs and the occasional moogle, and occasionally uses some of their speech patterns. She's also a bimbo (affectionate).

Svyatovit Sonjasch: Hrothgar woman, Monk, Astrologian, and Blacksmith. A survivor of the Bozja Incident along with her father, Perun Asonja, and her three childhood best friends, Vladimir, Sasha, and Andrej. In the aftermath of Bozja's destruction, Perun led the 4 youths to safety and met up with some other survivors who were outside the city, raising them and what other children were left very strictly in the old ways and encouraging them to take back their home. At age 25 when Svyatovit was expected to take men into her entourage, beginning with her best friends, she felt trapped between wanting to fulfill her father's wishes and longing for some of her own freedom and control. She left tokens for her three husbands, and ran away to Eorzea, leading to the events of the game. She puts up a front of harsh words and arrogance to hide the constant anxiety deep within, hoping that if she can scare everyone else more that she won't be scared of them. N

Origin Awakened/ Persephone: Persephone is the daughter of Hades/Emet-Selch and Hythlodeus. She was a small child during the First Final Days, and when Hydaelyn Sundered the world she shielded young Persephone from it, hiding her in the Aetherial Sea and keeping her in a coma. Unfortunately an unintended side-effect of being in a coma for thousands of years in the Aetherial Sea is that she lost most of her memories.

In her sleep, however, she found the sundered shards of her aunts and uncles, aka other members of the Convocation, and shaped them to what felt right based off of what little she did remember. In doing so, he tied pieces of his own soul to them, and was able to watch the story of their adventures through their eyes. This also tied the 8 warriors of light's souls to each other, and in the events before Shadowbringers they could feel a huge gaping hole when one by one they were summoned to the First. Once the last 4 arrived in the First, the painful lack was no longer there, and the Eight were able to start using their connection now that they were aware of it. However, it wasn't until they and the Scions arrived in Amaurot that Origin (as she named herself from making the Warriors of Light) woke up. He realized that the city felt right, felt like home, that the shades calling him child was familiar but he didn't know how. She accidentally possessed the Eight, and wandered around the recreated city in a daze until Emet-Selch was confronted.

At that point Origin asked him what she was. If she was an Ascian like him. She had wandered the city and listened to the shades talk about creation magic, and look at what she had made! She didn't even know she really existed as a part of the world before seeing the city, so what was she?

Naturally, Emet-selch freaks the fuck out and now that she is possessing the Eight he can see her soul, rather than just traces of her soul on the edges of their shards. He asks her if she knows her name, and she answers Origin. And he tells her that her name is Persephone. They argue for a while, with Emet-Selch trying to convince her to join him and give up R'osi so they can bring her mother and her home back. Origin refuses, as the world as it is now is what she knows, loves, and remembers.

Origin bips back to the Source to steal a Solus clone so he doesn't have to keep possessing the Eight, and comes back to the First to help them fight Hades. In his last moments, he hands his daughter his mask and asks her to remember them.

Origin paints the mask purple and wears it in his honor, and forges weapons made of his auracite. She adopts his signature snap, and starts being a much more active member of the Scions and working with the Warriors of Light.

It started as a small thing. Maybe that’s how the most important things start. With a small gesture, a look, a few words, a smile… Small things that bloomed like seeds. Like the flowers in the snow of winter turning to spring.
