Ch. 36: A Friendly Invitation

It's Two for Tuesday! (lol I got this chapter done faster than I thought I would.)

The Heart of the Song - Chapter 36 - Juwelz - Final Fantasy XIV [Archive of Our Own]

Summary:

A wrap-up of Estinien's recovery, and a slight dip into AU territory because there's no way I'm allowing Allisae to interrupt a nice dinner--but more to come on that.

(Spoilers for post-Heavensward 3.3, from "Litany of Peace" through the beginning of "A Promise Kept".)

[juweldom]

Happy Starlight!!!

(Damn I do love those fishnet hose and dainty pumps on my bunboy…)

[juweldom]

So 2 Veena and a Shetona walk into a bar…

Yeah, this should be interesting. 🤔

Ch 35: For a Friend

The Heart of the Song - Chapter 35 - Juwelz - Final Fantasy XIV [Archive of Our Own]

Summary:

Sometimes you have to risk it all to save a friend. And remember a love that was never spoken.

(Spoilers for post-Heavensward 3.3 from "An Ally to Ishgard" to "An End to the Song.")

Note: A little surprise! Enjoy the bonus Aymeric/Estinien gratuitous sex scene. I wanted to show a little of their backstory before proceeding forward.

Dancing!Bunbun 😁

Ch. 34: Revelations and Resolutions

The Heart of the Song - Chapter 34 - Juwelz - Final Fantasy XIV [Archive of Our Own]

Summary:

A transition chapter, but we're getting closer to the good stuff. Two attempts at a peace conference, one Grand Melee, and an Estiinien in a Nidhogg suit.

(Post-Heavensward 3.2 spoilers from "The Word of the Mother" through "Causes and Costs" with also some content from the Warring Triad questline)

[juweldom]

Thumpurr has always been a good swimmer and enjoys swimming—he jumped in the water even before Allisae in the Ruby Sea, and the very first Society quests he completed was the Kojin so that he could have a manta of his own.

D’rhyl tackled swimming the same way he tackles anything physical—with gusto.

Vallerin, having grown up in the North Shroud, did not really know how to swim. He couldn’t turn down a challenge from Allisae though so he struggled and doggy paddled until she taught him (she didn’t harass him for not knowing because she was impressed that he just jumped in and tried).

Does your WoL like to swim? Were they able to swim before they gained the ability to breathe underwater? Or is swimming something they'd rather avoid?

[juweldom]

Vallerin struggles to find outfits he likes outside of artifact gear, but I do have some that I’ve played around with and liked.

For elezen aficionados!

Ch 33: Reunions

The Heart of the Song - Chapter 33 - Juwelz - Final Fantasy XIV [Archive of Our Own]

Sort of a transition chapter; a new friend, an old friend, a new family, an old flame. And always the threat to the star.

(Heavensward 3.0 spoilers, from "Another Time, Another Place" to "As It Once Was" and the side quest "Gods of Eld")

OMG I can't believe a month went by. Work has been crazy busy, I had a persistent cold for 2 weeks, and I was fumbling trying to figure out what to include in this chapter. I'm happy with how it turned out, however, and feeling more charged to get working on the next one.

Love Unukalhai but he really is a strange kid.

[juweldom]

I’m struggling to write. Meanwhile, Vallerin finished Endwalker!!!

I may suck at gpose but I’m kinda happy with these screenshots (picture 2 is a gpose)…

[juweldom]

I’m poly so it makes sense that all my characters are poly—except for my lala who currently is ace. But she’s only in post ARR and I have this feeling she’s going to really like Krile.

My bunboy has a very high sexual drive (he’s only in his thirties, young for a Viera) and has slept with every Scion except Y’shtola (he’s working on it) and the lalas and doesn’t like being tied down but loves Raha the most.

My Sunkeeper is a Nunh. Enough said.

And my elfboy loved Haurchefant, loves Urianger, and I can’t say more since I have a WIP with him.

Is your WoL polyamorous or strictly monogamous? Or are they simply uninterested in the whole thing?

Ch. 32: Triumphs and Regrets

The Heart of the Song - Chapter 32 - Juwelz - Final Fantasy XIV [Archive of Our Own]

The culmination of Vallerin's duty to avenge Haurchefant and bring the Archbishop and his knights to justice is the stuff of both dreams and nightmares.

(Spoilers for Heavensward 3.0 from "First Flight of the Excelsior" to "Heavensward" and a little beyond.)

I've always had a tough time writing endings, and this pretty much closes the tale on Haurchefant, so I apologize for the delay. Obviously we're not done yet, but we're getting fairly close! Thank you all for your kudos, comments, and support.

Songs featured in this chapter: (Aetherochemical Research Facility) - Peacemaker, by Green Day - The Phoenix, by Fall Out Boy - My Songs Know What You Did In the Dark, by Fall Out Boy

(Performed for House Fortemps) - Mama, by MCR - The Ghost of You, by MCR - Gone Away, The Offspring

Ch. 31: In Pursuit

The Heart of the Song - Chapter 31 - Juwelz - Final Fantasy XIV [Archive of Our Own]

Summary:

Vallerin reacts to Urianger's letter, and then begins his pursuit of Archbishop Thordan VII and the Heaven's Ward. A lot of surprising events occur, leading up to a long overdue talk with Count Edmont de Fortemps.

(Spoilers for Heavensward, from "A Knight's Calling" to "Hour of Departure.")

[juweldom]

So as I mentioned, Vallerin recently started Endwalker…

And oh he INSTANTLY fell hard for Hyth, lol….hard enough that he’s like, “Okay, maybe Emet’s not such a bad guy after all…” 🤣

Picture 1: You’d better not be lying to me again…

Picture 2: Cheering up the cute entelechy with a little music

Picture 3: Hhnnnngh….!!!! -ded-

Picture 4: And suddenly Vallerin is envious of his past self.

[juweldom]

Sometimes a random cutscene just captures a shockingly beautiful image of your WoL.

Ch 30: The Answer

The Heart of the Song - Chapter 30 - Juwelz - Final Fantasy XIV [Archive of Our Own]

Summary: A Report for Count Edmont, and a letter for Vallerin.

(Spoilers Heavensward 3.0, "A Knight's Calling.")
