It may be... Unpleasant for those who prefer lush and dense forests. It may come as a surprise, but once upon a time Ishgard was surrounded with bountiful trees.

You're one of faith.

[ It's interesting to him since so many people here are very not catholic, by that I mean without belief. ]

Is there aught stopping you from creating home again? The blight may take what you once knew, but it cannot take your heart as long as you hold onto it.

[ understandable. a fantasy lifestyle-religion counts yeah

This god is unlike his own, so he listens and it makes sense to him. Life is just like that.

She sounds like a gentle and wise god, then you a faithful follower. [ ... ] Thank you, Lord Shale, for sharing a piece of yourself with me again.

The blight. Is there a cure? Are you seeking?

In Eorzea, we believe in the Twelve, but Ishgard specifically reveres Halone, the Fury. She is the mover of glaciers, the goddess of war and wisdom, and we believe she led us to Coerthas. [ ff14 just gave them athena ] Not many moons ago, my nation was commanded by the Church, with the archbishop as its head. Much of her doctrine had been twisted for the war's narrative, but with reformation the clergy are restoring the faith to what it should be.

In my pursuit for change, the Church and the myths it sowed was brought to light. It left so many of our pious shattered... But came it the end an era of lies and violence. Mayhap I am not worthy to pray to the Fury now, but I still find myself clasping my hands during the blackest of nights.

[ Ultimately: ]

I would like to think in both of our pursuits, we are still honoring our patron... And that they understand. May the cure or answer be waiting for you, Lord Shale, and if it is here in the Prism, then may you find it.
