i don’t know how much understanding emile would have for the endless, tbh. everything about it feels so cruel to him—taking away people’s memories to spare them pain, taking living people to keep the dead propped up and half-alive in a daydream.

so much about his loss has shaped him into who he is, and though he’d love to see his father again, he would never give up the memory of him. he lives on in emile, who fights to make him proud and honor him in all that he does….

#IDK emile wouldn’t be the wol if his father hadn’t died protecting him #and while part of it was twisted up in vengeance #so much of it was. my father was a good man. i will be too.#that is his blood !!!#nothing you could offer him would make him give that up #i’ve been thinking about emilien discussing this too #bc who would estinien be without the memory of his family?#and where would they be without loss bonding them together ?#and i think for emile too. the thought of losing estinien is unbearable #but the thought of forgetting him???#absolutely kills him #ANYWAY #i feel like im a little confused about the whole thing bc like.#logistically it doesn’t make a ton of sense to me #and maybe i missed something #but i feel like the ppl of alexandria would have to know they’re missing something #or are they really walking around with holes in their memory #not questioning like. hmm guess i never had a father. ??? ?#anyway…again !#i think i had this as one of my DT questions in my inbox #but my brain let those go #i’ve jus been thinking about this a lot #and now to have coffee o7 #ffxiv #dawntrail spoilers #oc: emile jenidaut
