Heavensward [3.0]: Post may contain potential spoilers.
The Gration
Its kind’ve odd in a way. I never once consider to look at this dreadnought for some reason. By the way, tomorrow will be the last shot for Azys Lla until I finish reaching all the way through Endwalker. I plan on taking one final shot in Ishgard. Although, I don’t think many will expect where it will be. I’ll discuss more about that later.
One other thing to mention. I’m currently in the works of recording footage for Azys Lla for this week’s video. I have a feeling that this video will be shorter than the rest. Could be wrong though. One last thing to mention about the video. I’m not going to worry too much about getting the day/night and weather perfectly since Azys Lla has a rather stagnant environment.
Also, due to my mishap with yesterday’s post. I intend to do two stories today as a way to compensate. However, the other story is mainly going to be a rehash from yesterday.
Forbidden Knowledge (11 Minutes 10 Seconds)
Knowledge. While vast, it also presents keys to unknown dangers that no ordinary person can withstand. A grand library that houses hundreds of scholars out in a great desert basin. Inside this mystical library holds a wealth of knowledge including that of the forbidden types. In those dark hallways are where only a select few are ever deemed worthy to grasp the knowledge stored within. One ordinary scholar attempts to enter these halls but is thwarted by stone like guards that extrudes out of the very walls. Even though the scholar had commited a great misdeed. They were forgiven by those above them. However, the greed of knowledge exudes out of the scholar and they find alternate means to gain access to this forbidden hallway. Instead of taking a direct route, they embark on their own studies to prove that they’re worthy to enter them. Unfortuantely, even through a great deal of effort. They couldn’t demonstrate any apitude for it. It was only when their last attempt failed that they were greeted by a rather odd figure.
No discernible feature was present on the person other than their voice signaled that of a man. The Robed Man offered a device that would make them undetectable to the guards, but they would need to take a single book outside of the forbidden halls. The ordinary scholar gleefully took the deal and on that night went straight towards the halls. Once activating the device. He seeks forth beyond the forbidden halls undeterred. Upon reaching their destination. They grab the book and took it outside of the library. After they had given the book away, years had gone by undisturbed by his nighly incursions. ~ Until one day where the whole library collapsed underneath the poor sod. Only then seeing a glimpse of the same robed man demolishing the library through their own hands.
End
The Catch (Yesterday’s Post) (10 Minutes 42 Seconds)
A great lake is that of a fisherman’s delight. While throughout the passing days. Every fisherman that casts their line out into the lake. There is intent on catching one specific type of fish. A fish larger than any man alive in their time. It had been decades since one was last catch and even then it took the strength of 12 men to reel it onto the shore. However, there was one man whom had claimed to have caught one by themselves even multiple times. The other fisherman looked upon this lonely hermit and laughed at his stories for whenever its brought up. No fisherman believes the hermit’s story, but still listen to his stories to pass the time along. When fall started to arrive most of the fishermen have begun to leave for greener pastures. Once the the snow first hits, they were all gone but the hermit. Even through the winter the hermit persisted next to the lake determined to reel in his catch.
While days have gone by the hermit eventually hooked onto something. That something happened to pull an incrideble amount of strength to where any ordinary man would be flung into the lake. However the hermit instead burrows themselves into the ground and pulls back with equal might. To observers it would seem as if an man was been pulled into some kind of mystical force, but in reality there were none observing the hermit’s battle. Hours go by where neither fighters yield to their exhautison. However, with a sudden burst of energy flowing through the hermit. He pulls with strength greater than any man and throws a fish larger than any man into the air. ~ Once the fish was on the shore the hermit began roasting the fish to prepare a feast all by himself for the entire winter season.
End
Oh boy, I kind’ve went over the limit with both of these stories. It was funny that yesterday’s story gotten longer since it did originally took me 9 minutes and 42 seconds to complete it. To be a bit frank I want to say a lot more, but writing these two stories quick as possible resulted in me having very little time to work with. As such I intend to bring today’s post to an end and hopefully I’ll have more to discuss tomorrow. (It should be easier since I don’t have to worry about making two stories at the same time.) I hope you all have a good day/night!
