What do you think of when you think of ice?"an image of memories of ysayle reflected in shards of ice - her determination, her shattered hopes, beefing with Estinien, adoring moogles - and, in the center, our last memory of her, falling through the skiesThe warrior of light covers his face, unable to reply. "I don't know what Shiva was like," he thinks, "When I think of ice I think of my friend."

Five panel comic page.

Panel 1: Raih'a stands before a fallen Eros, his bac to the viewer. Text reads, "The more Light that was poured into the Warrior of LIght, the more the light seemed to dim within."

Panel 2: A shot of his feet, standing in blood.  Text reads, "Dutiful."

Panel 3: A shot of his rapier tip, with blood dripping off the tip. Text reads, "Deadly."

Panel 4: A shot of Raiha's profile, a drop of blood dripping off his chin as he stares dispassionately down. Text reads, "Quiet."

Panel 5: A tiny pinprick of flame. Text reads, "Like the Void, snuffing out every spark of brightness, a yearning maw into which it all disappeared - Sineater and self alike - that nothing could sufficiently fill."Three panel comic page.

Panel 1: The Pendant doors open to reveal the Crystal Exarch holding a sandwich basket. Raih'a's shadow falls on him. Text reads, "So where I failed to sate the soul, I attempted to at least sustain the body."

Panel 2: Raih'a looks down at the basket, eyes blank. Text reads, "And there I saw it."

Panel 3: Raih'a looks back up, a dot of light in his eyes as he looks surprised. "A glimmer. Was that all it took, Warrior of Light?"Six panel comic page.

Panel 1: Raih'a with his back to the viewer, standing far away. Text reads, "Blight of Beasts,"

Panel 2: The camera zooms in slightly as he slowly turns. Text reads, "Extinguisher of Empires."

Panel 3: The camera zooms in slightly as he turns enough for the viewer to see his profile. Text reads, "Feller of Fiends,"

Panel 4: Raih'a faces the viewer, looking pained. Text reads, "Just something, someone, to remind you that you were possessed of a mortal hunger still?  That once you were a boy with a heart,"

Panel 5: A faded image of Raih'a as a child.  Text reads, "A soul,"

Panel 5: A shadowed image of Raih'a with his eyes shrouded. His speech bubble says, "...G'raha Tia."  Text reads, "A name?"Three panel comic page.

Panel 1: The Exarch looks shocked, beaten as light dissipates around him.

Panel 2: In the dark, the spark of flame grows bigger and bigger. Text reads, "What strange creatures, we, like embers buried in ash, waiting for just a breath of air to catch, to burn bright enough to set it all ablaze, until naught remains."

Panel 3: The fire grows large enough to encompass the entire width of the page. In the white space, a faded image of Raih'a smiling gently appears.  Text reads, "Except you.  Except always, as it must be, you. [end]"

Stupid…. pants… #ruko
Three panel comic of Ruca and Koana getting undressed to have sex. Ruca places his hands on Koana’s waistband to undo his pants, saying “Let’s get rid of these.” Next panel is Ruca struggling to get them off, with the dialogue “what are all these straps for?” Koana tries to explain but Ruca tells him to shut up, frustrated. The third panel is presumed to be minutes later, a very exasperated and bored looking Ruca standing next to Koana as he undoes the rest of his belts saying “one more belt! Then we can return to our prior activities…” with ‘most flaccid guy alive’ written beside Ruca.

What happens in the Occult Crescent...maybe should stay in the Occult Crescent. 😰 #wolgraha #ffxivart #FF14イラスト
Four panel comic titled, "Occult Occurrences."

First Panel: G'raha slams his hand on a desk, excited. "Raih'a! You've been to the Occult Crescent lately, haven't you? Tell me all about it!"

Second Panel: Raih'a in the South Horn caster gear, nonchalantly explaining. "And then it opened up into these caves from HELL." The text "Are you wearing a DUNCE CAP???" is in the upper left.

Third Panel: Raih'a in the North Horn Caster gear, still nonchalantly explaining, "On the island, the basement of this house led straight into HELL." The text, "You're even more beat up now?!" is to his right. The text, "Now you're just wearing PAJAMAS???" is in the upper left.

Fourth Panel: G'raha looks confused and intimidated. His thought bubble says, "What kind of place did you go to???"

8. Strain (NSFW) Koana likes to play with fire. (CW: dubiously consensual bondage) ellipsus.com/read/6ZWAamk... #FFXIVWrite #FFXIVWrite2026 #FFXIVFanfic
B'alith laughed softly and trailed a finger up Koana's chest to toy with the lapels of his jacket. "'Tis a brave man indeed to allow a mage to get so close after having just threatened him—despite what many think, I am perfectly capable of summoning the necessary power to defend myself without the aid of my staff."

Koana was suddenly very aware of how warm B'alith's hands were, and of the fact that the heat was due to his lifelong devotion to the practice of black magic. It was highly unlikely that he would put up more than a cursory struggle if this were to turn physical, but there was real danger lurking beneath the flirtatious tone in his words, and oh how thrilling it was to be reminded of that fact. Koana had seen firsthand the devastation those long, dexterous fingers could wreak, regardless of whether the staff they were wrapped around was magically reinforced metal or achingly sensitive flesh, and he had no intention of giving B'alith the chance to retaliate just yet.

a fanfic snippet:
Year 1579 of the 6th Astral Era. 5th Astral moon, day 7

G'raha,

Haurchefant said that I should write more. Told him I have no idea what to write, and he suggested a letter, even if the recipient was never going to read it. (crossed out) I guess you definitely won't be reading this, since you locked yourself in a tower for a trillion years. (end cross) I doubt you'll ever read this. He says it's the writing that's important.

(crossed out) So little has changed since you left.

(also crossed out) everything has changed since you left

(end cross) I've been spending a lot of time at Camp Dragonhead. None of the scions look for me up here.

The second frame shows Cid quickly showing Macy away while still holding her by the shoulders, face concerned. [1/2]A two-frame comic page. The first frame shows Cid crouching to get on Macy's level to look her directly in the eyes. He says: "Macy. My friend. It is important to me that you know: I'm 34".
The second frame shows Macy being so flabbergasted she's drawn by non-dominant hand, contrasting with normally drawn Cid. [2/2]

status of g'raha in long fic: doing bad! [8th umbral era snippet] #emberwrites
He doesn't know how long he is bedridden, but gathers it is some days. He recognizes Yuyumi, brushing careful hands over his brow. She suffuses him with aether, somehow, and that eases the swirling headache as well as the sensation that he has lost something very, very important. He feels like a creature that fell out of a womb too early.

"He just needs time," he hears Yuyumi say to other shadows in the room. "His aether was separated from the Tower's for the first time in 200 years, I do believe."

That makes sense to him, somewhere in his cobwebby scholar's mind. But more viscerally, it puts his situation into sudden relief. He realizes, all at once, that the Tower's aether still believes him to be part of it and that he has inexplicably escaped, akin to an arm falling off apropos nothing.

The Tower is silent. The Tower wishes to eat him. 

Maybe he should let it.
