FFXIV Endwalker MSQ 68-A Flower Upon Your Return

Venat helps us with the Echo and we get a little bit more description.
1. Peering through walls of the soul the moment a subject is recalling the memory
2.Piecing together an event from the ripples left in the ambient aether.
Notice we do not grab our heads as if in pain.

Hermes kills me. He wants to know what others live for. What about what he lives for? Everyone lives for a different reason. He sent beings with the minds of children to see what others live for. He is looking for the perfect answer when there is no such thing as perfection at least not in this world or theirs. Mankind is flawed in FFXIV just like real life.

I don't particularly like my answer for this one especially with what he has just done recently as Fandaniel. The incarnation he prefers is Amon who worships Xande and his ideals. Plus if you look deeply into what he has done. He is a sick twisted cruel monster with his experimentation that he does as Amon and Fandaniel. I mean does it not bother anyone that he chopped Varis up into pieces and stuck them in the towers to mass temper as many as possible and suck aether from the world? Or what about the re-enacting of his glory days as Amon who gets the recurring theme of using bodily test subjects while creating monstrosities, abusing/damaging souls, body snatching, the manhandling of a god like being with more souls involved. Or what about the pleasure he takes in all the sick things he does.

Yay Emet and Hythlo are back. And Emet just inadvertently admitted that he has to believe us because he knows we are not lying...since he can perceive liars. He agrees to help and denies his belief 3 seconds later. Such a lovable grump.
