Please excuse my voice in this video - I recorded while I was sick. And yes my timing is terrible.
the sick Voice kinda fits the Video imo :P
Softest voice ever. I love it birdie!
Get well soon
Really? First thing i thought when the video started was that your voice is really nice
Now that the Reaper class has been revealed I wanted to come back and see the story of the games First Reaper again
So here is something I didn't notice. If you go outside Sastasha with the quest "It's definitely Pirates" You will see a group of adventurers that are striking similar to Edda's group. Only the Conjurer is scolding the Tank and the Thaumaturge is saying: "Thank goodness our Tank didn't lose his head!"
I wish they went back and did side stories like this. I love how creepy it is and all but I think what I liked best was how it really made the world feel alive. For me, it really helped drive home that while we're out there killing primals and eventually going to the Moon, there are just normal adventurers going on in their lives independent from you and you just meet them at certain points in their lives.
You know the funny thing is Edda probably had incredible potential as a healer if only she had received the proper guidance. Her skill in necromancy was quite potent.
If only brother E Sumi Yan treated her like Sylphie
If not Necromancy was an actual job…
I come back to Edda's story every so often when I wind up with Tam-Tara (Hard) in roulette. Funny enough, I also always seem to glean some new bit of information every time as well.
This time, I found out that Edda actually appears in 1.0. During which the WoL discourages her from the path she's initially walking down:
That of necromancy.
Interesting
@@ojisankusaiwhat? Any source about it? Never noticed she was in 1.0 during my time back then.
Great use of in-game assets to produce additional cutscenes to tell the tale!
I'd never noticed the circle spelled out Avere.
Lol. That fiance guy was a terrible tank. He kept moving out of the way. Edda was the only one in that group that seemed to do the right thing.
Right? Classic case of always blaming the healer no matter what.
@@ProperBird I know im late to this comment section but I'd just like to say it was 100% everyone elses fault, Edda literally was forced into a role she wasnt ready for nor trained for at all, and pushed by all her members (including her very own lover) forcing her to over extend herself and her fiance ran off and Leeroy jenkins'd the whole thing lmfao, its just sad, tragic, and her members are pretty awful for what they did to her.
A story about an abusive relationship in an MMO... fancy that.
Liavinne actually was a scion, she died in the attack at the waking sands *minor spoiler* if you start a new game you can find her at the waking sands, you cant tell she is dealing with some personal issues there, at some point she is using a pitchfork as a broom, and an npc looking worried next to her. she has different interactions depending on where u are in msq.
That's in the video 8:20 :p
I couldn't really include the pitchfork footage because it's more "dear lord, Liavinne" than "that's very spooky, Liavinne". :p
That is also the point where you find out that she had a crush on Avere.
One of my favorite background storylines to follow. I'm glad they gave us the dungeon to fight her and see the outcome of this story.
Edit: I also liked the two other npcs you find at the starting dungeons. The old man and and his daughter. I think it's his daughter, I haven't played in years.
I wish they kept adding (Hard) dungeons to the game. It was cool seeing a sort of finale to the side story inside the dungeons
The additional scenes you made and added in with Edda and Avere added so much to this! Really well done.
INCREDIBLE! Really!
Using scenes of the game to gave that cinematic look in a way that i saw only in Dark Souls lore videos was amazing, indeed!
I was kept trying to remember who this young lady was later when playing this game because I felt so bad for her when they were blaming her for Avere's death. I am glad I found this video. This is one of the characters that left an impression on me. Thank you
In retrospect, looking back from shadowbringers, the story bears at least some bit of resemblance to Minfilia's arc- only instead of trying to bring her back, we let her go, and welcomed Ryne into our lives. I think Edda would approve of that.
She didnt adjust
Edda's too kind to be a healer. Every healer I know are full of salt
um..I'm a WHM, if anything i try to encourage my party xD
Salt or a God complex. Random healers when I'm doing dailies are some of the most angry, vindictive people.
Not all of them, but I notice it most with healers.
@@UncleButterworth I started healing for the first after playing since ARR and I immediately became a chain smoking party hater. Swiftcast a raise on the subhuman (so…lalafell) black mage that died because he refused to break his cast to save his life or cast stone? Stone. Always stone. Rock. Hard. Stone. Let that window licking black mage lick the ground.
The only thing that makes her a 'healer' healer is playing with death 😂
@@AngryGayPigBish with a bag of salt on the belt just in case I'm sure 😆
Very good video, and I never noticed Avere's dialogue at Sastasha!
Her fiance: Run aggressively and taunt every enemy in the place
Edda tries to catch up & heal: Target not in range
I dont know if anybody has noticed this, but if you unlock Sastasha hard, there is a team of NPC outside, where they pretty much flipped the personalities of everybody in that squad;
- A Cowardly Tank
- An Aggressive Healer
It was a very... therapeutic thing to see because I thought Edda's tale ended after the deep dungeon
I didn't know that actually, I might go check that out!
Amazing video. Coming back to palace of the dead recently, it got me thinking about Edda and her tragic story since it's been such a long time since I've last heard about it. What a nostalgic journey it was.
Oh my god, I never noticed she was in the background till sitting down to listen to this!
Same, I was mindblown, I wish I could go back to that moment and see for myself
Been waiting months for a good telling of this! The game presents the story in such a subtle way at the beginning that many players don’t notice it while they’re speeding through the cutscenes and dialogue. I knew you would do a great job with your narrative and presentation!
Edit: How long did it take to capture the ghost Edda sighting? I hear they are fairly rare.
I caught her the first time I went to check. Then I spent another 3 days just sitting there to see how often she showed up, caught nada. >
Where did you catch her?
I really love this story, I'm glad she got the happy ending.
Nybeth can spam all the lies and "lectures" at us, but all we need are but a single quote to defy his goals and logic: "People die when they are killed"
I love the direction you are taking the channel, your story telling is so good :)
They do such a good job with side quests. Events that took place at the beginning of your story can still have relevance and deep meaning even after you saved multiple worlds four times over.
It would be so cool if there was a necro class and she is part of its story.
I would really love a necro or like a eldritch type caster xD and any excuse fir more Edda is a good thing ^_^
@@El_Legante Problem is diehard newschool Final Fantasy fans are extremely opposed to the idea of a Necromancer job, especially considering how rare and equally revialed they are in the lore of this setting. I mean just look at Summoner, it's even in the game story they had to bend over backwards to be accepted since they summoned manifestations of primals, same for Black Mages and outside Warriors of Light those who practice those magics are simply tollerated. Considering in the series Necromancers only showed up Twice, both times being in obscure Game Boy titles, the support for such is even more hampered.
GET READY BOYO YOU MIGHT GET YOUR WISH
Reaper intensifies
@@Zayindjejfj my favorite bit of fanart to come out of the reaper teasers so far was Edda, in her PotD garb, with a blue quest icon over her head.
this would make a great horror movie or series
I really love how this whole story just started out as a random bit of background, a way of underlining things for you and setting the stage for how you're needed. But then it just freaking HITS THE BLEEPING FAN! when you come across Paiyo Reiyo in Ul'dah after the base story. ...Should make people stop and think about things a bit. Such as being decent to your associates and the like.
Though, just saying, I do find it rather stupid that Edda should be in love with Avere with the way he was talking about her. Yes, she went off the deep end. But still. If he got drunk and was verbally and mentally abusive... Well, love works in messed up ways some times.
Abusive relationships are extremely common. One person giving support to another at a particularly vulnerable time is all you need to cement a lasting abusive relationship. The victim will often fall back to that good moment to excuse everything after; "He wasn't always this way" "He can be good, I know it" "He didn't mean it like that" "I just need to be better to help him". Always chasing after that one good memory. It is also common for the victim to rewrite events to cast the abuser in a better light, in this case Edda interpreting Avere's arrogance and jealousy towards the WoL as admiration.
And yeah, this hits close to home. So I had reply with some insight.
this story was so creepy and awesome!!! 8:26 kinda got chills when this zoom in happened ngl
Wow that production level though :O (Not sarcasm)
Thank you so much for this, I did so much different content in the game all at the same time after I started playing, that I'd forgotten a lot of things that happened from lots of different questlines by the time they continued again, and wasn't able to connect all the threads. I remember seeing those adventurers outside the dungeon when I first got there, but didn't recognize them later in the quests, or even later still when I tried out PotD. While I'd seen the majority of this play out in the game myself, it was so spread out over time that I didn't understand what was happening as it unfolded... so thanks so much for taking the time to put it all together like this! Really love the whole spooky campfire/true crime documentary vibe that you have in the video too!
You did an amazing job explaining her thank you so much this was very beautiful yet sad story❤
Quite a nice story for October :) Good creepy factor and dark/light story :)
Thanks for the recap, i loved this character descent into madness kind of arc, it reminds me of a certain "boy" on Nier Automata ;p
Got a Disembodied Head Resonator from a moogle event. Friend told me to remember the adventurers over at Gridania who were fighting over a dead member, and then brought me to Tamtara Deepcroft (Hard). Bruh. And then friend thought of helping me level a class I just picked up by going to PoTD. And then I saw the cutscene with the mysterious lurker who appeared to be wearing rebel boots and a dress. Unfortunately didn’t get deep enough in PoTD, but I had no fking idea that the lurker was Edda and PoTD and Tamtara Deepcroft (Hard) were related. The Disembodied Head Resonator makes so much sense now.
I did the first half of the story. Now i literally am thinking on reactivating my sub in FFXIV just to do the other half of this quest. Damn! I didn't know that there was more to this!
Now this is how you tell a story.
I use this as my bedtime story
Loved this. And always did love this tragic story.
This video was fantastic and very well made!
I heard this from an FC mate, but apparently Edda has been in game since the O.G. FF14. Apparently there was a female NPC in a village that if you talk to her is learning magic, but it's hinted that she is dabbling in the "darker" aspect of it. If this npc was in fact Edda, that would mean she had some knowledge of necromancy and picked it back up upon Avere's death.
Poor Edda. I feel so bad for her :'(
Also you can find the ghost of Edda in the 3 main city states at night but its a less than 1% chance
Having never had a premade group, I have not been able to progress past L30 in PotD. So I had no idea! Great story, great storytelling Jinzee :)
The lesson is be nice to your healer or you'll have an Edda
Or you know...be a better tank also. USE YOUR DEFENSIVES PEOPLE.
8:19 OH SHIT
Omg tysvm. I had started in ARR, but eventually chose to skip around missions in level 30ish because it felt sooooo slow to go straight to Heavensward since my friends all said that's when story gets good, but then we started trying to get me to do PoTD so we could level lower classes & I kept wondering why that floating chick seemed familiar. Now that you had this vid that explains everything, it all makes sense since we never get to finish Palace.
So she wasn't the best healer but was an extremely powerful Necromancer with tons of dark abilities.
Welp
Thank you for this. The team I got to do the hard dungeon with was great, but they pushed through it so fast I couldn't read the whole story, and of all the dungeons I've seen so far this one has had the story I was most curious about.
I hope you were able to go back later on your own time. In case you or other readers don't know, you can run through dungeons unsynced in order to read and watch things you might have missed previously.
Goodness even the side stories are immersive!
They're some of my favourite stories honestly!
You need to do a FFXIV Lore collab with Ethys Asher
omg great timing and great video
I hope the Reaper class will have her as a teacher
So how disappointed were you with not getting that but at least we can buy a true scythe from mogstation
@@ZeroOmega-vg8nq well my day is ruined
12:18 YOOOOO!!!!! this was scary as shit!!!!! lol so glad I didn't watch this at night 😅
Damn. Suddenly I don’t feel so bad about Avare and the other girl.
Omg, I've watched this video a few times now. And I've ran this dungeon hundreds of times. I only just realized that she wrote Avere's name in a circle around her. Was wondering what those symbols were. lol
Hey thank you for this I wondered what happened to her :)
HOLY MARY MOTHER, I didnt realize you played FFXIV! ^.^ I became a fan of your Witcher lore videos, and now I have so much more to watch!
Poor girl her fiance was a bad tank who didn't stay with the healer
I just finished this quest and I wasn't paying attention. After all is said and done, I noticed that my character didn't do the usual emote and just sadly closed his eyes. Clearly I missed something because I was getting tired of reading dialogue that I just skip through them. Then the ending cutscene came. I wasn't horrified but definitely wished I had Shadowplay active so I can record it because I found it funny. I looked up the quest transcript online and stopped when it says that we're familiar with Edda already. Then it hit me when I new her.
Fucking hell, I need to pay more attention to these.
I think it’s gross how they all immediately blamed Edda for his death. Nobody at all cared it wasn’t her fault. Dude seemed like an arrogant ass in the first place but they all seemed to jump on the verbal abuse Edda train
The healer abuse is real
Wow she loved Avere so much I assumed he was kind and shit but seeing his quote towards Edda makes me wonder why she loved him at all enough to do the ritual.
This was awesome, the only thing that would have made it better was to have the edda theme quietly playing in the background
Well done!
I again just did tam tara hard today
I forgot how Fucked it was
I remember the dungeon and PotD but I do not remember the story being so involved in the game 0.0
last time i saw her was when she talked to me about trying again and starting from the start.... then i started playing palace of the dead ....and fuck me i was so socked to see her and i cried when she disappeared
I subscribed to you since 2019.. never knew you a Edda's Story video. Good I picked up FF14 and wanted to know more! Sick or not... still like your voice!
I was today years old when I noticed that Edda is standing in the background in the opening cutscene from the hard mode quest. Where did THIS FFXIV side quest design go. Shame we will never get hard mode dungeons again.
This was such a creepy story
What do the words on the ground say? 13:39
tfw no qt3.14 waifu to resurrect me after I die in battle irl.
Love this vid :)
New sub here
Is this supposed to be a creepypasta about Eorzean lore?
Nope, just an actual questline that actually takes place in FFXIV. ^^
What's the song used for the credits? It sounds familiar
It's Edda's theme! ^^
ruclips.net/video/nA29a5UoqAY/видео.html
I can't help but wonder if PotD and Nybeth is a small acknowledgement to Hell's Gate and Nybbas from Tactics Ogre Let Us CLing Together.
More ff14 stories please!?
If anyone needs autographs, just ask~
I take 10 so I might sell them later when you get famous enough :P
See. I know people can be mean, but holy crap, putting someone at fault for a literal death? Most people aren't that both cruel as well as non-self-aware of how that comes across.
Teasing, even if it's bullying is another level if you do it with blame of another persons death, like WTF of course she went mad.
I am happy ff14 has my back that slow and bad healers deserve hell.
