Y'shtola Rhul and Yda should be able to put pep in the great one's step. Is that not so, Minfilia?

I litteraly stepped out this morning taking my dog out, and everything just *felt* so much better!

Picture of Yda in said back yard provided as dog tax.

I think minfilia, alphinaud, estinien- blue lions
Thancred, yda, alisaie, yshtola - black eagles
Urianger, papalymo, graha - golden deer

🧐

After the passing of Foulques, he was left disillusioned and laid down his lance. It was only at the behest of Yda and Papalymo did he join the Scions. Inspired by Yda, he became a monk—-retraining from his teachings from his erstwhile mentor back in his halcyon days in his adolescence.

I got to be very funny (evil) about it when she got very attached to Moenbryda, but then ‘Yda’ came in and was treating her like a sister, so I got to say “hey, Yda, go get your own sister”

in the hboverse alisaie is transplanted into the memory holder’s body (and also their non-objective vision) and I bet an echo from yda* where she’s in a body she can’t see’s eyes looking at yda would make her be like. uh.
September 28, 2026 at 12:07 AM
well yda is mostly excited. papalymo is concerned. thancred is mad, naturally. why did you come here alisaie of light !!!
September 27, 2026 at 11:59 PM
lrp hboverse alisaie’s first echo in front of the scions happens when thancred shields her from ifrit and she gets flashbanged with the parade echo and absolutely concusses the fuck out of herself. and yda and papalymo and thancred are like. next time let’s bring this up before fighting the primal.

What in the seven hells was Yda thinking, avoiding political complications like that?
September 27, 2026 at 7:46 AM
i went through the entirety of heavensward and my reward is learning yda is just taylor swift

maeve says it to zephirin first. estinien says it to maeve first.

rosodo tells ppl he loves them within a week of knowing them tbqh (yda was prob the first of the scions to hear it) but his first time saying it seriously to tataru was after castrum centri (she knew this time was different)
#wolqotd ship question.

For those with WoLships, who was it that said "I love you" first? Who took the emotional step of saying their feelings first? How'd it go?

my memories are bad on this front but it was something about seeing Yda die that had Fordola enlist fully to the conscription (<------ MY memory is bad someone correct me).
September 26, 2026 at 5:48 AM
can we talk about the real Yda meeting Fordola...
September 26, 2026 at 5:48 AM
at one point he refers to either lyse or yda as "aibou," and i don't know if that's a consistent thing or just in that last cutscene before he dies, but still. 😭
September 26, 2026 at 5:47 AM
yep!! they seem to have been much closer to peers, since yda was much older than lyse :')
September 26, 2026 at 5:44 AM
on a slightly more depressing note, i think the real yda must have been quite a bit closer to his age 🥲
September 26, 2026 at 5:18 AM
I know what you're thinking. "Yda, you don't need to keep taking to banditry just to eat. Can't someone else do it?" And you're right, but the thing is... I like it! Damned if I know why, but I just can't stop!
September 26, 2026 at 4:58 AM
we all have to be more like yda me thinks…

but yes…i think often about how minfilia had so much on her plate. she wanted it all but god was it so heavy to carry 😭😭 there is so much to consider and so many paths!!
September 26, 2026 at 4:46 AM
Yda is iconic lol. Love the bit of edge on minfilia here, shes in a tough spot!

#FFXIVWrite2026 Day 23: Egress

G / Gen / 1,175 words
- Ahlii'ya Aykha, Minfilia Warde, Tataru Taru, Yda Hext
- Early ARR

Me: Egress just means like, an exit, right
Merriam and/or Webster: To come out
Me: Yeah I'll willfully misinterpret that

You've brought us one step closer to launching Yda out of a trebuchet.
September 24, 2026 at 8:35 AM
imagine y'shtola is just explaining this flashback to thancred and yda and papalymo using words in the same time it takes the wol and minfilia to experience it
September 24, 2026 at 1:19 AM
We carry on.
