Answers really did take on a new meaning after Shadowbringers. The plights are very similar aren’t they?

I've been thinking along these lines since a short while after finishing 5.0, and even more so once we started to hear about Venat.

Sure, the song fits the plight of the Dragons of Meracydia shackled in Dalamud pretty well, but it feels like that whole scenario (and everything else involving the dragons for that matter) was written as a primer for where the story would go in Shadowbringers and Endwalker - the dragons are unsundered beings after all, brought to the star after Hydaelyn's victory, so the way they react to and process major events ends up being a near perfect comparison.

Might want to redo this one now after Endwalker, truly puts things into perspective

This song sure hits real hard after the Shadowbringers MSQ!

[GaeFootballClub]

the lyric video of the Endwalker song just dropped and i immediately looked up if anyone has done some analyzing of the words

Oh man, I wasn’t even thinking about the Ascians! This means so much now!
