I had someone send this to me on Discord. Me, after finishing it: I don't know what I was expecting, but it wasn't THAT. Then I found the FanFest performance of Civilizations for him.

@@ann-marieellis8523 I’m curious as well, I know it’s been mentioned multiple times in various expansions that the twins adore the wol but I don’t ever remember it being said Alisaie explicitly had a crush on them 💀
I like the idea of the WoL actually being a fantastic bard (just like Soken who the audio is of) but none of the scions ever having heard them play. They all go in expecting a grand show only to be met with this.
Thing is, the canon WoL never became a bard. He was only an Archer originally. Archer, Warrior, Dragoon, Monk, Samurai, Dark Knight, and Paladin are the classes he has access to. Not a single spellcaster at all lol.
@@Nempo13Just because a job wasn't featured in an expansion doesn't mean it's not canon. It's difficult to set something as canon for the WoL due to the many different play styles (some people never even touched the featured jobs), but in my opinion a WoL who mastered all trades is closest to the WoL's character according to the lore.
I can imagine a scene of a Loporrit talking about wanting to record the WoL singing while Urianger passes by who mentions this to the other scions in passing. Thancred or Alisaie then push for a private concert for the scions and the WoL decides that this is the perfect opportunity for a prank.
somewhere in the wings the ghost of Emet-Selch is facepalming while Hythlodaeus is laughing so hard he'd choke if he had a body to breathe with. "yep, that's... our Azem..."

Funny thing is, this might have worked on Meteion as she is an empath. It would have made her feel something so very different that sadness. Sheer, utter confusion.
Seriously, I could imagine Jason Charles Miller to be the WoL/WoD voice when it comes to singing. (The vocalist for Shadowbringers/To the Edge/Close in the Distance)
*DAWNTRAIL SPOILER ALERT* 🚨 And now this is canon… This is exactly what Graha would do :3 proven by a quest in Dawntrail called a Knight of Alexandria. :) the WOL played a royal knght and Graha cheered for him while others have other reactions :) ruclips.net/video/HrJd6lRzSHw/видео.html
Ya know.... everyone here is thinkin G'raha is fangirling yet all i can see is that theres no light behind those eyes, he would scream in anguish but he wants to support WOL because thats what friends do (also im 100% betting that he was the one who suggested the scions do karaoke to begin with 😂)
*GASP* Now That I Think About it This Guy Should totally do a Version of The WoL doing this infront of the Ascians and see what faces the Ascians make. XDDDDDDDD
Oh come on ! Who didn't even try to sing it while on Raktika woods for hours if not days ? I lost my sides watching this video as I saw myself and I would have the same look from my fellow scions. 🤣
Nothing can break G'raha's image of the WoL

FR
Even that performance gave him a chub hahaha
Uber sump for WoL
Or Estinien’s deadpan straight face to everything
Yshtola's face before the singing even starts is perfect gold standard understanding of the feeling that is cringe.
y'shtola's flinch away at the very first doots, i love it
I knew before clicking on this video that this was going to go exactly one of two ways.
I was not disappointed.
"I've heard better harmonics from a Chocobo's death knell"
"Did the Warrior sleep through Bard class?"
"I suppose it was too much for ask for Hydeleyn to bless him with a decent singing voice."
I'm sure I can think of some other jokes but others likely beat me to it. Funny video 🤣
A shitpost inside a shitpost.. shitpost².
Gotta love how G'raha is just star-struck while everybody else dies inside.
I can't believe you got Soken himself to mocap for this!
y'sthola face : "aw, sh*t. here we go again"
Not what I was expecting, but I love it anyway. When I heard that song for the first time, I mimicked this exact way. Brilliant.
I died the minute he started thrusting😂
WoL would probibly sound a lot better if he remembered to change to Bard before starting a performance
Soken is all our WoLs. 😂
LOL this was too good XD
Y'shtola looking like she's seen shit much worse but she reacted uncontrollably anyway.
Find a partner who looks at you the way G'raha looks at the WoL. Find a friend who looks at you the way Estinien does.
Words to live by
Estinien is that homie that has seen you at your worst and he's still there like 'just another day with this idiot'
I was expecting (hoping) he would pull out his lance and claim we were possessed
Right?!? It's G'raha and Estinien's looks that get me. And Y'shtola's ears.
@@th0rne_999it was actually the WoL seeing Estinien at his worst twice while saving his ass the second time. Estinien is the one person of the "trust"ed group to not have seen the WoL at their worst.
The look on Alphinaud's face as they realize what is coming is incredible.
He knew from the first note
And Y'shtola lmfao
Y'shtola recoiling back in cringe after hearing the first otamatone note
Same time the rest of us did, I imagine.
This was pretty much my reaction too.
I was like "Oh no, not this song!" XD lol
I like how Estinien has no context or experience with performances, so he reacts like this is totally on the level. Also bonus to Thancred and Tataru not showing up.
They're over at the bar, pretending they don't know the WoL.
True art appraiser.
Thancred is in stealth mode trying to leave and Tataru knew in advance since she funded the performance.
They knew what was coming and dipped.
Thancred already died of cringe on the floor
I like how G’raha is the only one in the crowd appreciating this lol
Truest fanboy.
He's the best kind of friend.
Chad’raha
He's our biggest fan :)
Funniest part of that is that G'raha is the one that's a good singer. We really can do no wrong in his eyes.
"Ready your arms. I fear he's been possessed."
XD
“Oh come on, that was… a good effort?”
Varshaan: *brain.exe encountered a problem. Restarting...*
The Scions finally realized that, after averting countless realm-ending crises, the WoL had finally broken mentally.
Can't blame him tbh lol
And thus the 8th umbral calamity came from the WoL's madness
Always has been
Is this Chaos???
He saved the world from calamity
But who will save the world from him?! 😱
Alphinaud: "Listen Alisae, he singlehandedly toppled the Garlean Empire, stopped multiple calamities from occurring, saved ANOTHER world from another calamity, stopped the end times, and travelled to the very edge of existence to save all of creation... He can sing anything he wants on Karaoke night."
Alisaie: "But-"
Alphinaud: "Anything. He. Wants..."
Famous last words. lol
Omg yes!
Words he would soon come to regret...
BRUH..... AGREE!!
Also saved all of them and brought them home so this is mandatory
I feel like G'raha is looking at WoL like a portion of the player base was looking at Soken the night he performed that piece.
The moment I started to hear the first few notes I went, "Noooo... they are using Soken's performance..." then proceeded to laugh.
I would probably find it safe to say the majority of the player base.
Alphinaud: He wouldn't, would he?
Y'shtolah: He would...
G'raha Tia: How many years have I waited for this moment?! 😍
Fun fact: haurchefant saw this future in a vision and decided to to jump infrontnof the lance instead of just pushing us out of the way
@@kiriuxeosa8716 He knew the WoL must live so that this magnificence can happen.
G'raha's infatuated expression vs the visible disgust of the other Scions
*chef's kiss* juxtaposition at its finest 👌👌
...And the indifference of Estinien. He's all "Just another day."
@@erikmartinez1384 lol ya, Estinien is like "Yup, this is something he would do"
Let's be honest, the scions didn't recruit us for our singing skills.
guess that's why this man didn't go from archer to bard but warrior instead
I disagree as a bard main ;)

@@videogamecoverss I was going to say! Not unless your WoL is a Bard main!
Y'shtola's ears laying back was the perfect detail. Fantastic.
I wonder how that was on her ears? XD
And Alphinaud's look of "Oh Tweleve preserve, please don't do this."
This would've been perfect if Yugiri was on piano with Keiko's expression.

The hip thrusting, the dissapointed/disgusted faces. Truly beautiful
Love how a single shot expression shows perfectly the personality of everyone of them.

There is such an overwhelming contrast of the Wol's personality in this video and his smoldering gaze in the Vault video.
The WoL was responsible for two calamities : the 8th when he conducted a christmas choir, and the 9th when he sang La Hee
Estinien's face of just being casually displeased, but he's always like that lol
all of those fetch quests finally drove him insane
Love how G'raha just enjoys whatever the WoL does it doesn't matter. I truly love him he is precious. >-<
And Estinien doesn't seem bothered keeping a straight face XD
This is now cannon. This is not up for debate.
There has to be a limit on the WoL 's talents. I think we found it. All the dynamis, in all the cosmos, can not fix even that.

Alongside the mastery of the magical studies such with. Black magic, White magic, Red magic, Blue magic, Astrology magic and the Arcanist arts both offensive and defensive.

Point is the WoL is a master of many, many, many, MANY things... Just not the musical arts.
He's a Bard too, not just an Archer. The rest of the world however does not understand his artistic vision.
No one asked for this, yet this is exactly what everyone needs right fucking now.
G'raha's undying love and appreciation.
0:49 Hes So Happy!!! Precious 🥰

Estinian: "Ready your arms, I think he's possessed"
G'Raha: *adorable fanboy noises*
The looks on Y'shtola's and Alisaie's faces are the best
You can see Yshtola contemplating casting fire 4 on the WOL.
G'raha's face is me when Soken sang it live
WoL: "Look, im a lvl 90 BRD, not a lvl 90 Singer, alright..."
Y'shtola's slow "ulp" motion with the ears tucked moment was the high point for me, but the otomatone solo was pretty good too.
ofcourse graha is still fan boying xD
This is absolutely beautiful, Y'shtola's face is priceless
The azure dragoon just chilling like... "fucj this guy gets it"
...So did the WoL commission the otomatone from Garlond Ironworks?
The WoL's hip thrust and G'raha's face are what got me, lmao! 🤣
"the warrior of light can do many things...."
"...singing is not one of them"
Part of me was thinking Baka Mitai would play first but this is much, much better
Now I want to see this happen.
Maybe setting him against every primal known to men is a bad idea - The scions except Graha probably
Dear lord, I only want to see Ardbert’s reaction, he’d be viscerally repulsed.
Nah , he’d be belly laughing.
I'm pretty sure out of the whole crowd, I felt the disgust in Y'shtola's expression the most.
By this point in FFXIV (EW) WoL is a world famous bard in eorzea.
this is payback for making Meteor hot the last video
Funny thing is, this might have worked on Meteion as she is an empath. It would have made her feel something so very different that sadness. Sheer, utter confusion.
And now we know why the WoL is never voiced in cutscenes...
That shot of Alphinaud looks so good, like I want that to be how FFXIV looks after the graphical update
That's why he never went from archer to bard...
plot twist : G’raha wasn't enjoy or anything, he just froze at the first second of this performance
The moment I heard the opening bars, I knew *exactly* where this was going.
This made me cry with laughter. Holy hell my mood has been down but this sure as hell picked it up a little bit
