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.
Not true for Alisaie, she is almost like G'raha and in the post Stormblood short story Y'shtola figures out that Alisaie is crushing hard on the WoL without even knowing it.
@@richardshiflett5181 I wonder if that's why, despite the occasional slightly flirty dialogue with Y'shtola, she doesn't push things any further, because she knows how Alisae feels about us.
@@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.
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

The pelvic thrusting really sells that the WOL is in fact not having a mrntal break down, but is instead completely taking the piss after all the stressful heroism he has done. After all this time, saving the qorld countless times, saving another world and fighting an impossible foe that controls emotions. He is letting out all his silliness on stage and we will see more of it in the times to come
"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 🤣
I love how I knew which song this was as soon as the alphinaud's expression changed even without any sound whatsoever. Loving the animation quality on display here
This is exactly what happens when you don't talk for majorities of your life. Warrior of light, this is what you get for communicating with nothing but simple nodding!
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)
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.
Nothing can break G'raha's image of the WoL
G'raha is the only one who gets that the WoL actually studied those people's song and is amazed by the execution.
The rest are hit by a heavy culture shock to say the least. XD

Even that performance gave him a chub hahaha
Uber sump for WoL
Or Estinien’s deadpan straight face to everything
"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...*
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 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?! 😱
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 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.
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 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.
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."
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
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"
The hip thrusting, the dissapointed/disgusted faces. Truly beautiful
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 ;)
@@videogamecoverssbard don't sing, they play instrument. Many, many instrument
@@charnor2727 Indeed, the singing was bad. The otomatone? On point
@@videogamecoverss I was going to say! Not unless your WoL is a Bard main!

The WoL was responsible for two calamities : the 8th when he conducted a christmas choir, and the 9th when he sang La Hee
There is such an overwhelming contrast of the Wol's personality in this video and his smoldering gaze in the Vault video.

Yshtola's face before the singing even starts is perfect gold standard understanding of the feeling that is cringe.
This tragedy greater even than the 7th Umbral Calamity *MUST* be undone.

"the warrior of light can do many things...."
"...singing is not one of them"
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.
What are you talking about? This is the song of Oblivion.
@@lexireina3641 WoL = Meteion: confirmed!

The moment I heard the opening bars, I knew *exactly* where this was going.
That shot of Alphinaud looks so good, like I want that to be how FFXIV looks after the graphical update
No one asked for this, yet this is exactly what everyone needs right fucking now.
The WoL's hip thrust and G'raha's face are what got me, lmao! 🤣
This is absolutely beautiful, Y'shtola's face is priceless
The confidence emanating from the hip bump slays me.

Not even the Songstress job can fix this.

Y'shtola is me whenever I step into the area
Maybe setting him against every primal known to men is a bad idea - The scions except Graha probably
the three dots in grahas eyes as the dumbfounded expression XDDDD
I'm pretty sure out of the whole crowd, I felt the disgust in Y'shtola's expression the most.
This has been stuck in my head for weeks
Such a beautiful rendition by the WoL. It is a performance that will stick with you forever 😂
When the WoL has yet to unlock Bard.
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.
tmw you remember the WoL started as a Bard...
Gotta love how G'raha is just star-struck while everybody else dies inside.
