Styrnrael would be completely lost if not for Llymlaen's grace! Thank you to the beautiful @maruwins.bsky.social for this magical moment at Fanfest!

The graceful Marucosplays dressed as Llymlaen and myself as Styrnrael are sitting around a map. Devine intervention is needed sometimes when it comes to charting a course.

Saturday night somehow managed to turn into a perfect storm of awesomeness that’ll forever be a core memory for me. From having the opportunity/privilege to help to pose The Man himself to sharing a drink with everyone that came out. Truly, thank you @en.finalfantasyxiv.com #ffxiv #ff14 #fanfest
