Monday Mingle - Little Ladies Day Or Week

A holiday has begun in the world of Eorzea, despite Dalamud dropping in an Era ago.

To this end, the seneschal of a noble house of the Thorne Dynasty has decided to participate in this years Little Ladies Day. With the aid of the event organizers, there are Daisy Flower Crowns being distributed to the Princesses of this world. Give your Princess a wonderful Flower Crown to show your appreciation, and be their seneschal, prince, retainer, whatever, for this day!

But that's not all.

To celebrate this event, the Songbirds, famed songstress idols have been hard at work preparing a new song for their group. A majestic concert is being prepared on the stage in Ul'dah, and everyone is invited to watch their concert.

So have fun, come visit Ul'dah, come visit Eorzea. It's a happy time, one for rest and relaxation. One might think, it's a calm before a potential storm, considering the Garlean menace on the horizon...

"Well, you definitely have the armor for it." Cliff couldn't help but smile back at the aforementioned Warrior of Light, but no more of an interruption did he give but that. Koo'ri was right that he was tanky. Big, buff, and burlier than a lot of the earth golems Cliff had ever made to defend himself.

"War?" Okay, that was bad. There were reasons wars didn't happen as a rule, where he came from. "Between who?" Maybe that was none of his business, but he couldn't help but ask. As for the 'more crowns' answer, he should have expected that, maybe. Cliff just nodded, and went over to the...Lalafell? Had to hit the guy up for more crowns.

"Eorzea and the Garlean Empire, and well, the Garlean Empire and everyone else basically." Replied Koo'ri. "Everyone's on edge despite the celebrations."

He shrugged a little. "I mean, we're getting along as much as possible."

"You mean this Garlean Empire is going against everyone? That's. Uh, well, not the smartest thing I ever heard."

It sounded to Cliff like it was a good excuse for a curbstomp if there ever was one--not that he knew the Empire's power. No one messed with the Bladewolf, after all. Maybe no one messed with Eorzea, either.

Cliff shrugged too. "Sometimes that's all you can do." His mom still didn't like the Sorceress.

"They've got cerulean and robots," said Koo'ri. "And mecha and airships and stuff. So that makes them a lot more flippin dangerous than Eorzea and the rest of the world who only have swords and spears."

Cliff took a moment to stare at Koo'ri.

"I...don't know what any of that stuff is, so I'll take your word for it. None of it sounds good," he admitted.

"Just swords and spears? No magic or anything like that?" Because if that was really the case, that was bad news.

"We've got magic, which evens the odds but you know, when they can fire bullets that shoot faster than a spellcaster? It kind of skews the opposition towards the Garleans." said Koo'ri. Fortunately, the skilled can deal with a gun since it's a glorified Bow and Arrow.

That did not sound like a good thing to Cliff. "Yeah, I still don't think there's a lot I could do about that, either." Except call up giant rock walls or something, and even there you ran into difficulties.

"Too hard to work in concert and call up giant stone golems or something?" He eyed Koo'ri a moment, but Cliff couldn't blame the guy if that was out of his forte. He seemed more likely to bro around with the Rage--more a warrior type. Which was just fine. Too many mages meant mayhem, sometimes.

"We've got cannons, and the Ironworks who are coming up with gizmos all the time. And Derpy-Derp's on our side, so he's a one-man army." Replied Koo'ri. "Not to make sure that his squishy insides go outside or anything though, I make sure of that."

One man army. So Derpy-Derp was kind of like Rage, then. That sort of made sense.

"Can't argue with that," Cliff admitted. "Well, yeah, he's lucky to have a fellow like you around. Only thing you need now is a healer to make sure neither of you have your insides on the outside."

Cliff might be able to manage that, since his element was one of the ones better aspected to healing, but that was one of the things he wasn't entirely confident in, so he wasn't about to volunteer.

"Yeah I've never seen Derpy-Derp heal before, so I don't think he knows how." replied Koo'ri with a gallic shrug.

"But that's what his friend list is for."

"I have a little knowledge there, but it's not my specialty, so..." Cliff shrugged. But even by the virtue of being here, now, he didn't think he could stand by and do nothing, should something bad happen.

Besides, he'd been all upset that his sibs had gone on adventures, and now that he was getting a taste of it, was he just going to walk away? Um. No?

"Yeah I'm not a healer. I cleave things, and I'm good at that. But healing? I can get a second wind and that's about it." replied Koo'ri with a gallic shrug.

"I mean, I heal a little. Not much."

"I have siblings who're better at it than I am. I mean, Syrrie's pretty good at it." Eiros wasn't bad either, but he might not be as thrilled to be mentioned. Cliff shrugged. "I mean, I can probably prevent you from dying in a pinch, but I wouldn't rely on it."

He thought about that for a moment. "Suppose it's better than nothing, though."

"Yeah, I mean, I used to be Overpowered. Still am but not as overpowered?" Shrug shrug.

"In any case, this is Ul'dah. How're you liking it so far?"

"It's hot. I mean, besides that it's okay." Cliff said. "It's greener where I'm from." He couldn't help but chuckle a little, there.

"Overpowered, though? How do you mean?" Since he really only understood that somewhat. His parents edged towards that already, and his uncle was ridiculous. But the less said about that, the better.

"Gridania and Limsa are more green than this place. Ul'dah's a desert nation," replied Koo'ri. "But it has funner people."

"I could take any hits any time I wanted to, and withstand any blows, and just survive 1v1 anything."

Cliff's eyes widen a bit at that--not that having talents like that weren't a good thing, but...

"Yeah, that does sound a little overpowered." Ridiculous. But it wasn't as if he didn't know ridiculously overpowered people, himself. He didn't consider himself one of them, though.

"It's not a terrible place, it's just hotter than I'm used to. The fountains are nice." What ones he could see. There had to be an oasis nearby to have the water channeled in too, but that wasn't the sort of thing he had the ability to sense.

"I could heal by swinging an axe. Heal by hitting more things with an axe. Regain a bunch of health just by getting a second wind twice... You know, standard Warrior Stuff."

"We're not hurting for water, for that's for sure. Which is good, considering everything."

"Nope, I don't," but Cliff chuckled at that. "I leave the warrior stuff up to other people. I'll stick with what I know."

He nodded with enthusiasm. "Agreed. I'm not good at sensing water if there weren't any...then again, I could always try to sense for it by looking for channels in the ground...or where earth isn't..."

He mused on that for a moment. Yeah, that might even work...

"Yeah, though we're not hurting, so we should be good for now. Nothing too bad right now is happening, so we should be all right. Though we could always use more water when the time comes for planting." said Koo'ri.

"That is good. This is a nice place." Cliff meant the world, now. Even if he was just a visitor, he really wouldn't want anything bad to happen to it.

"Well, if I'm still around when planting season is, I'll help. Can't imagine my powers would do that sort of thing poorly, here."

"The place does need a lot of work," admitted Koo'ri. "We'll be glad for all the help we can get."

"Oh, it's not so bad, I've at least heard about worse." Like his mother's realm after she'd wrested it from the Chimera, but it sure didn't look like a hole now. It had had thirty years from that time to get better, though.

"Sure, if I'm here for a while I'll do what I can. Least I can do."
