#FFXIV snippet: "Come and Go with the Tide"

An alternate universe where Morroyo and his husband Lethe took that first train to Yyasulani and was stuck under the dome for 30 years. How did they survive through that time?

Lethe is @shinjira.art's Moon Keeper Mi'qote.

More to come.

The lightning roared all around Heritage Found, but he couldn't hear it inside his warm cocoon of blankets. His bones ached horribly these days, every movement pure torture. Time no longer had any meaning, but there was the constant, nagging thought of something left undone. Something was not quite in the right place. He just couldn't remember what it was. His lungs spasmed and he coughed, a dry heave that left him feeling more parched than ever before. The dust of old Yyasulani had invaded his breath, just as the lightning had ravaged his nerves. He felt the soothing warmth of a cup of tea pressed into his hands. Someone helped him swallow the fragrant liquid. It helped soothe the cough, if only for a little while. His vision cleared. He saw the pale yes of his husband, white hair gone silver, wrinkles under his eyes. Lethe, he remembered. Together almost sixty years, by his reckoning. Three quarters of a lifetime, just about. He smiled and nodded his thanks. "You must rest, love. The storms are bad today." Ah, there was the affectionate scolding he knew so well. Lethe took the empty cup and put it on the nightstand. "How are you feeling?" "Better than the usual, oddly enough. I had a strange dream..." "Oh?" Lethe's voice was roughened with age. "Regale me?" "Do you recall Hawkers Alley?" "In Limsa?" Lethe's eyes softened with the memory. "We sat together in Hawkers Alley, looking down at the ships. The sea breeze through our hair, the smell of the incoming tide..." Morroyo smiled. It was just a simple thing. I miss it so much." Lethe squeezed his hand. Limsa Lominsa was a world away...quite literally. Morroyo's recall was fuzzy these days, but odd that vision had come to him so strongly. He'd long put away the hope that he'd see the ocean ever again. Heritage Found was little more than rock, dust and lightning. "I MIss it too. It's been so long." Morroyo inclined his head, his hears still twitching as if they detected odd movement. Then he realized, no, those are footsteps coming to our door. "Is someone coming? Are we having visitors?" Lethe frowned and glanced at the door. "Not to my knowledge..." THen they both heard it, heavy boots on stone and worn dirt, and a knock on the door. "Stay put, I'll see who that is." He only nodded, for he couldn't trust his legs to hold him up, much less walk to the door. There had been a time when he'd never thought twice of such simple movement. As the years went by, his steps became less sure, a slow shuffle, hobbling about as time took its toll, until just going to bed to his work desk took too much effort. Eventually, even just standing became impossible. He knew that he didn't have much time left. Morroyo and his husband Lethe in Hawkers Alley in Limsa.

A handsome lad!

My first FFXIV main was a mi'qote bard boy named G'rhant Tia. Everyone was always like, "How do you say that?" "Grant."

I made Neema after thief/ninja went live and she's been my main ever since, though I do have a warrior bun boy alt named Cap'n Lapin.

#WOLQOTD

What breed of animal is your wol? If mi’qote what cat breed would your wol be? If hrothgar what type of big cat would they be? If viera what bunny breed would they be?

Kalypso is a lionhead bunny! Her hair naturally looks similar to a lion’s mane to mimic a hrothgar like “mane”.
Photo taken from google, shows a greyish white black lionhead bunny Half upper body part of kalypso’s reference depicting her from chest up. She is a white and brown colored viera.

She is done! Some additional things to note:
The mi’qote is named pawah (belongs to @/shikyandi.bsky.social)
She is known as a gravekeeper, a third faction of mi’qote dedicated to dealing with the dead and guarding graves.

#art #ffxivart #digitalart #OCsky #ocart
Fullbody reference of pawah a mi’qote who takes after ragdoll cat breed primarily, her colors are white, reds and purples. This current ref has information + a clothed and “nude” version (she has fur not really nude). Information on top reads the following: Mi’qote changes from canon: - Much more fur on body vs vieras - Originated from hrothgars and hyur crossbreeding - Still far more human in shape vs hrothgars - Upon shaving their human hair, they still wouldn't count as being "hairless" - They have the most animalistic tendencies compared to the other races Ex: Will chase a laser pointer - Have the most variety of markings, second being hrothgars - They come in all kinds of real life cat breeds,meaning they will exhibit the breeds physical characteristics - Feet and hands are 100% cat like - She is known to be of the gravekeeper faction of mi’qote this is a new uniquely created one separate from the games to better fit this particular oc/wol - Cat like nose, in fact they look more furry/animal like but not as strongly as hrothgars do - Gravekeepers are excellent at handling dark based aether spells and tend to handle in arts that no other races of hydaelyn would there dip their toes in My viera wol (warrior of light) next to pawah (mi’qote warrior of light). It shows a clear height difference between the two besties.

Juno is supposed to be a tiny runt of a viera, but he still towers over all mi'qote.... lalafells don't even reach his knees..... doesn't help that his paws give him so much extra height he matches max height fviera. Treno was a tripping hazard
