the deceased gobbue in eastern thanalan my beloved ;--; like:

"Local legend claims the Lonely Giant is everything from the ghost of a Sil'dihn sultan, to the prototype for a new model of Garlean machina. Ul'dahn scholars, however, simply believe him a Coerthan goobbue who lost his bearings during the chaos of the Calamity, and after a long journey through the Black Shroud, died of exhaustion upon reaching Thanalan."

#i love that gobbue so so much like!! the symbolism!!#the NPC there remarks about how he thinks it was at the battle where bahamut came down #and after running to find safety from the destruction he gathered all these spores and seeds #and when he finally died in eastern thanalan the seeds and flora he was carrying sprouted from his body #I LOVE THAT SHIT #owen plays ffxiv
