Day 30: Vestige | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/...

" 's not hingan I'm afraid. Comes from the Steppe I think. We 'adn't much for Auri in our stores."

Such a simple act of kindness to nearly move her to tears, and yet Mizuki felt them burn fiercely in her eyes. The weight of the past week came crashing down upon her chest at the sight of these fabrics and it took every ounce of her will to swallow the sob that would claw its way up from her depths.

"'s alright lass," the sailor said softly. "Yer safe now."

He did not understand. These kind men thought her a woman fleeing mistreatment; they did not know the truth. If they did they would not be offering her such boons. Doma hunted her, the Garleans hunted her— until the day Mizuki died she would never truly be safe.

Yet perhaps… that was the answer in and of itself.

Day 29: Layer | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/...

"You do realize you've stepped on nearly thirty traps in as many stones?"

Rodrigue could but remark at their resilience, if nothing else. The Pilgrim's Traverse was a host of oddities that he would not soon be able to explain. The winding paths that were never the same when one tried to retrace their steps, the odd stones that marked their passage and the host of Sin Eaters and other beast that stalked within. Perhaps the most concerning were the concentrations of aether hidden in the floors that did everything from explode in their faces to call another hoard of beasts to their location like an ill conceived alarm.

"That many already?" Euryphaessa asked without the faintest hint of remorse or regret. "I lost count around fifteen or so."

Day 28: On Thin Ice | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/... [Ascian WoL AU]

It was as beautiful as it was entrancing. Despite the dim light of the room, it caught every bend of the light until it looked as though it had one of her own. It taunted her with a rippling of aether upon a surface that held far more within its depths. On the surface etched carefully was a simple circle, a dot at its heart. The sun. The knowledge bloomed in her mind when she had no right to possess it.

"A crystal… like the ones in your tales." It was exactly as she had imagined it, right down to the shape of the bevel. Had she not known better she might had thought he plucked it from her very imaginings.

"It's yours." Emperor Solus said simply and let his arm fall back upon the bed.

Day 27: Free Day | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/...

Once mangled black feathers had shed their oily coat, fluffing up into something soft that shimmered silver starlight at the edges; the only remnant of the colour it had once been. Its tail feathers swept down at a length that seemed to grow longer and shorter before their eyes, just as a shadow might change lengths beneath the shifting of light. And its gaze, that same beautiful silver gaze, dazzled an even deeper unearthly glimmer. The shadowy aspect of their aether had nearly overtaken the creature entirely.

"I'm sorry, I didn't do a very good job restoring you, did I?"

Day 26: Susurrus | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/... [Early BST quest spoilers]

It was the sort of pain that rippled in the moments when the lake was stillest. Ciardha stroked his flank in the same absent rhythm as her thoughts, her fingers tracing the rivulets of gold that ran through the white. It was scarce comfort, but it was all she could offer. The Cu Sith had taken to her from near the moment they had rescued him in the woods. She wondered if he felt it as she did, that they had both known the same kind of loss.

Day 25: Cynosure | #ffxivwrite2026 Full Version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/... [Arcadion questline spoilers]

Electrope was not the only cynosure of the Arcadion arena.

It had taken perhaps too long for Ciardha to realize the power that Metem's vivacious commentary held over each match fought there. The combatants may fight, but his was the scope that directed the audience's attention, his words sculpting and guiding them to precisely what he wished them to see. He moulded the perception of all who watched often turning the most routine exchange into something sensational until the fight reached its inevitable outcome.

And just like his ring, Metem was far quieter in the moments between.

Day 24: Drift | #ffxivwrite2026 Full Version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/...

Alone with her thoughts, she drifted back to that horizon, and to the soul that she met there. It seemed impossible, but then what about Ultima Thule had not been woven of impossibilities? Ciardha had seen first hand the miracles that could be wrought of dynamis, that something should manifest from her heart's yearning to live shouldn't be so difficult to believe.

Day 23: Egress | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/... [MSQ Patch 7.56 spoilers]

They were trapped here because of her, because she did not understand the magicks she had invoked and her mind's focus had wavered at a single crucial moment. Both had been gracious with her, holding back whatever anger or resentment they might feel for the manner she may have just permanently altered the course of their lives. Though they did not say it, they surely felt it. Perhaps they merely had the courtesy to wait until she beyond earshot to lament her failure. It was a kindness more than she deserved, and perhaps that would be better than the quiet.

How she longed for a lit hearth, to be anywhere but the icy silence of this island. Save there was no egress from this isle that could be handled with grace. She could make use of the path she had forged to return to the Source, but to drop them here and to subsequently vanish felt as cruelty itself.

Day 22: Train | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/... [ShB Crystalline Mean alc/cul quest spoilers]

The antidotes that Bethic had her brew seemed to have quelled the poison's effects, but Skip retained a fear of eating that left him terribly malnourished. His dark plumage was not nearly as full and soft as the other amaro in the pen, and she felt the bones beneath his skin far too keenly. Even the manner he leaned into her touch was laced with hesitation, as though he feared she would just as quickly draw a dagger as continue to stroke his coat.

"You have nothing to fear from me." Ciardha interspersed her strokes with the whispers of reassurance. "I would have spared you that suffering if I could."

Whether Skip understood her words' meaning or simply felt the sincerity in them, he let the full weight of his head sink against her hand with a soft 'khrrrrrr.'

Day 21: Better Late than Never | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/... [7.56 MSQ Spoilers]

"There you are."

Tataru's voice filled the empty space and bounced back from the walls. The subtle chatter of ceramics followed her in and announced the presence of a pot of tea only seconds before the aroma reached her nostrils. It was one of Ciardha's favourite blends, a soft floral tea with hints of berries to accent it. Tataru set the cups upon the table, but Ciardha reached the pot first, pouring for them both before adding a small splash of honey to her own cup.

"With all that's being going one, we've scarcely had a moment to talk." Tataru plopped down upon the second chair and began fixing her tea. "It seems a lot has happened since you all left for Tural."

"Let there be no question."

With a sweeping gesture Ciardha has come to know all too well, their hand passed down over their face and a gleaming red sigil appeared in its wake. The mask of an Ascian, the mark of the convocation, covered Eury's features in its unmistakable glow. There was no question, of course. Ciardha could feel it in the aether that brimmed about them, a cloak drawn with too much flourish. Between the one they wore now, and the one they had left in tatters in her heart…

Which mask was the real one, Ciardha wondered.

Day 19: Liminal | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/... [ShB spoilers | Unsundered Azem AU]

Now it felt a contradiction, and the thought of them tightened her throat until her breath was a narrow, strangled thing. How foolish she had been; blind and stupid. To look back now it had been so painfully obvious; Eury had always been there right when she needed them, always gave her the advice she needed to hear or the encouragement to take another step. Too perfect. Too good to be true. She had so desperately wanted to believe in the friend and mentor they had been to her that Ciardha blinded herself to all the signs. Until Eury stood before her in Ascian robes and kept the killing blow from Emet-Selch's heart.

She expected their energy to change for this knowledge, and it had— save not as she expected. When she walked into the Rising Stones she knew it immediately and it granted her pause. No longer was it bold and open in invitation; it was a liminal thing, the ghost of a melody that lingered after the concert had ended but it was unmistakably theirs.

And it was still warm.

Day 18: Reason | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/... [Unsundered Azem AU]

"Such is the life of an adventurer."

"You as well?"

"You could say something like that." Eury answered and twirled their finger about the rim of their mug in amusement. A somewhat oversimplified description, but it was perhaps the easiest way to describe what lingering traces of their seat and duties remained to the husk of who they had once been as Azem. "I take it you're rather new to adventuring?"

She nodded once.

"Why don't you tell me a bit about what your task is? I've been at it for some time, perhaps I might offer a bit of insight. If nothing else, two heads coming up with ideas is better than one alone."

Day 17: Fret | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/... [Arcadion spoilers]

The small fairy set immediately to fretting over Ciardha's state. Eury had not the power to grant Selene in full, and it was plain that she was quite irked at this fact. She huffed when her magicks did not instantly tend the wound upon Ciardha's arm and she was forced to repeat the spell thrice before it closed.

"Selene?" Ciardha blinked in surprise; her brow knit, not recalling having summoned her own fairy. Then her realization drew to Eury.

"You had forgotten?" They recalled her walking many of the memories tied to Selene and Eos' creation; the closest things to familiars Eury had ever possessed. "I am hopeless when it comes to healing magicks; this is the best I can offer you."

Day 16: Steel | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/... [ShB Spoilers]

Yet how could she stop, when this world was in such desperate need of saving? If the price was her own life, how could she not give it? It was her duty; to give anything and everything to those she served. This was a truth she had known since birth, the lot fate had cast for her in this life and it was because of this that she accepted the light's burden as each warden fell, never once truly believing that all would be well in the end.

She had known this would be the outcome. She had steeled herself against it. Yet when she stood before the mirror in the Pendants, bleeding light from her veins, Ciardha found her resolve was made of glass rather than iron.

Day 15: Prodigy | #ffxivwrite2026 Full Version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/...

"Azem." Dread doused Eury more surely than had they plunged into the northern lakes. No doubt the conundrum of the nyxblooms had been her duty to resolve, in a manner that did not involve such wanton slaughter. To have run afoul the convocation within a month of graduation— Hades would surely never let them live it down. Eury drew a single long breath to steady their still heaving chest and made their best effort to stand upright.

"Forgive me, Lady Azem. I did not mean to interfere with your duty."

They wholly expected a scolding, instead the sound that filled the air was the chime of her laughter.

"Forgiveness is hardly needed for such a prodigious display," she clapped twice more then let her hands fall to her sides. "There are few that could handle more than one nyxbloom at a time, yet you challenged the entire herd of them."

Day 14: Against the Grain | #ffxivwrite2026 Full Version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/...

Their first task as Azem was to mourn a tree.

The bough was ancient, even to they whose lives endured longer than most forests. Its trunk stretched nearly an entire malm in diameter and the branches above stretched the canopy out another malm in each direction. The area about its roots was painted in carefully curated flowers, gardens that swirled across the base as brush might dance upon a canvas. Against the bark of the trunk was a mural, a carved history etched by hand as the years passed and people about it grew in number and wisdom.

Beneath its shade a once small village had grown into a large town that specialized in wooden crafts and botany. The tree was as much a part of their homes as their livelihood, sheltering them from the sun and the frequent storms that rolled through the area. And now, it was dying.

Eury pulled a comb from their pocket, a lovely thing they found at the markets earlier; coral, gleaming in the golden pink blush of dawn. They began with the tips and slowly worked the comb through Mnemosyne's hair. The fine teeth found the knots that their fingers had so easily skimmed over. They took their time with each snag, carefully unwinding the offending strands as though each a puzzle they must solve without breaking. The night was heady with Mnemosyne's presence and they would drink of it as deeply as she would permit.

"How long has it been?" They whispered the question and did not expect an answer.

Day 12: Fusion | #ffxivwrite2026 Full version: www.tumblr.com/hopeandduty/...

The ripples stirred and faded, forest air fresh with the earthy scent that followed a good rain. Her gear was drenched, her hair clinging to the back of her neck but Ciardha felt satisfaction all the same. It had been some time since she had devoted herself to the craft, and in the wake of all that transpired in the Pilgrim's Traverse, the simplicity of trying to catch a fish, legendary though it may be, was a welcome reprieve.

"I think the barbs were a little further down, closer to the tail."

The sudden voice made Ciardha nearly leap out of her skin. The wide grin on Eury's face told her that was entirely their intention.
