The Far Edge of Fate (quest)

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* Alphinaud informs you that the Alliance council will shortly be convening again and urges you to make haste to the Lotus Stand. Announce yourself to the silent conjurer, then approach the Elder Seedseer.
* Having thanked you for your efforts in Carteneau, the gathered heads of state proceed to explain the events following Omega's launch. After what was by all accounts a furious aerial battle, both it and the primal appear to have crashed down in Gyr Abania, and the Alliance now intends to exploit the resulting confusion by moving to secure Baelsar's Wall. Ask Alphinaud for his thoughts on these developments, and discuss your next step.
* Though mindful of your recent exertions, Alphinaud suggests that you rendezvous with your fellow Scions in the East Shroud. Look for Y'shtola at Amarissaix's Spire.
* You meet Krile and Y'shtola at the foot of the tower, and they relate their own account of the titanic battle in the skies over Gyr Abania. Terrifying though the spectacle must have been, a part of you cannot help wishing you had been present to see it... But even as you picture the scene, Alphinaud's inquiry about Yda's well-being draws you back to the present, and you proceed to the observation platform to find the grieving pugilist staring at the spot where the cocoon of light once hung. Yda turns at your arrival, and after appearing to come to a decision, shares the tale of her great deception, revealing at last that she is not Yda at all, but the fallen Archon's younger sister, Lyse. With her pledge to liberate Ala Mhigo still echoing in your mind, you prepare to follow Alphinaud back to the Rising Stones and the waiting Alisaie.
* Upon your return, you learn that Alisaie has already been apprised of Lyse's startling secret, yet it is not this but the future which occupies her thoughts. Conscious that the Scions will inevitably be drawn into the brewing conflict in Gyr Abania, she bids you gather your strength for the coming storm...
※The next main scenario quest will be available from Alphinaud once you have met the following requirements:
※ You must have registered a product key for FINAL FANTASY XIV: Stormblood to your service account.
※ You must have completed the main scenario quest “The Far Edge of Fate.”
==Objectives==
* Speak with Kan–E–Senna at the Lotus Stand.
* Speak with Alphinaud.
* Speak with Y'shtola at Amarissaix's Spire.
* Speak with Alisaie at the Rising Stones.

Alisaie 	I am always glad to see you, [Player Name], but wasn't your presence required in Gridania?
 	
Tataru 	[Player Name]! You're back! I knew those blood pearl charms were worth the effort! Maybe I should make some more!?
Yugiri 	（★未使用／削除予定★）
 	
Gosetsu 	（★未使用／削除予定★）
 	
Nero 	（★未使用／削除予定★）
 	
Yda 	（★未使用／削除予定★）
 	
Cid 	Alphinaud looks like he has news for us. I almost dread to ask...
 	
Alphinaud 	Words can ill express how glad I am to see you all unharmed. When Omega came hurtling towards the cocoon, everything dissolved into chaos...
Yda 	I have to see it... I have to see it with my own eyes!
Alphinaud 	Yda, wait! We must first─
<sigh> The Elder Seedseer is expecting us...
Yugiri 	Worry not, Alphinaud─Gosetsu and I will watch over her. You may safely attend your meeting.
Alphinaud 	My thanks, Yugiri.
Alphinaud 	The council reconvened a short while ago. Let us make haste for the Lotus Stand. All there are eager to hear your testimony.
 	
silent conjurer 	The Elder Seedseer awaits you within.
 	
Raubahn 	'Twould seem Garlond's little friend was as good as his word.
 	
Aymeric 	Had I not instructed you to throw Nidhogg's accursed eyes into the abyss, all of this might have been avoided. I thought them beyond reach...
 	
Merlwyb 	Another Calamity averted, eh? How many times now have you and yours hauled us back from the brink?
 	
Kanesenna 	My friends, full eagerly have we awaited your return. Few indeed could have discharged the duty entrusted to you, and most humbly do we thank you for seeing it done.
Cid 	You are too kind, Elder Seedseer. As I recall, we as good as demanded the right to try. But tell me: how did the battle unfold?
Cid 	We succeeded in waking Omega, aye, but we lost contact with the weapon shortly after it launched. From our position in the control room, we were blind to all that followed...
Merlwyb 	...What words could do justice to such a scene? None of my choosing, that much is certain. But I can give you the facts: the cocoon hatched even as Omega arrived, and from its midst rose a great dragon. The pair duly set about each other in the skies over Gyr Abania.
Aymeric 	The primal's might defied belief─it seemed the very heavens would be rent asunder by the force of its blows. And it wielded such magicks as I have never seen...and hope never to see again.
Aymeric 	The battle raged on with no end in sight, until both combatants were engulfed in a blinding flash of light. When the radiance faded, I saw the pair fall motionless from the sky, coming to rest somewhere on Ala Mhigan soil. I will not speak for the rest, but to my eye it seemed that each had landed a fatal blow upon the other...
Kanesenna 	While most among us could think only of Bahamut when looking upon the primal's form, the Domans were heard to whisper the name “Shinryu.” It would appear that the being resembles a creature of Far Eastern legend, and we have found it convenient to refer to it as such.
Kanesenna 	This Shinryu's fate─and indeed, that of Omega─is yet unknown. We have, alas, no eyes on the Gyr Abanian side of the border.
Raubahn 	Aye. Which is why we have sent our main force, under the command of Marshal Tarupin, to capture the Wall.
Raubahn 	With the imperials in disarray, we have the perfect opportunity to secure Gridania's border, and assess the aftermath of the impact. I myself will join the marshal and his men when the council is adjourned.
Cid 	Well, that explains a few things. I'll wager that “flash of light” coincided with our loss of contact...
Cid 	Lest you wonder, we quickly reengaged Omega's stasis systems, so even if it has fallen into the Empire's lap, it will be of no use to them─save perhaps as a statue.
Nero 	Correct. Without me to guide their efforts, it would take them decades to decipher Omega's core functions, if they managed it at all.
Kanesenna 	Such reassurances do much to calm our fears─yet the relic's fate is but one of several concerns.
Aymeric 	Indeed. I humbly submit that the time has come for us to make contact with the Resistance representatives in Gyr Abania. Though Ilberd has forced our hand, it would seem only logical to seek an alliance, given the inevitability of imperial retaliation. And by working in concert, it is not impossible that Ala Mhigo might finally be wrested from Garlemald's grasp.
Raubahn 	I go to oversee operations at Baelsar's Wall. You have done your part─leave us to handle the initial imperial reprisal and rest while you may.
 	
Aymeric 	This operation to take the Wall will be Ishgard's first military action under Alliance banners. Though I have no appetite for bloodshed, a part of me is glad of the chance to begin reparations for our past inaction.
 	
Merlwyb 	When the primal emerged, I was for an instant transported back to Carteneau...to the moment the black wyrm made an eighth hell of the battlefield. Gladly would I live out the rest of my days without seeing such a sight again.
 	
Cid 	If, as seems likely, we put Omega into stasis after─what did they call it? Ah, yes─after “Shinryu” was defeated, we should have little to fear from either one of them.
 	
Nero 	I should very much like to see this “Shinryu” creature for myself.
Kanesenna 	Pray accept my humblest and most earnest thanks once again, Warrior of Light. Had Shinryu been suffered to roam free, the Twelveswood would surely have been laid waste.
 	
Alphinaud 	You must be exhausted. I would ordinarily suggest that we retire directly to the Rising Stones...but I wonder if we might first make a small detour?
Alphinaud 	Y'shtola and the others have gathered at Amarissaix's Spire, and I imagine that you, too, would be interested to see what has become of the Wall now the cocoon is gone.
Alphinaud 	It is decided then. Lead on.
 	
Gosetsu 	Only the curs of Garlemald would sully such beauty with that black iron monstrosity. Those animals respect nothing and no one!
 	
Yugiri 	Yda is there, atop the spire. She has done naught but gaze silently at the Wall for some time now...
 	
Yda 	......
Krile 	Oh, thank the Twelve. After witnessing Omega's single-minded onslaught, I had visions of you being trapped between it and its target. Hardly the most rational concern, I concede, but if you had seen what I saw...
 	
Alphinaud 	No trace of the cocoon remains. 'Tis as if it never existed.
 	
Alphinaud 	It was brave of Lyse to remove her mask after so long...
Alphinaud 	Though she has scarce begun to come to terms with Papalymo's loss, that one act made plain her determination to move forward.
Alphinaud 	And should she ever falter, we shall be there to support her on this road she has resolved to walk.
Alphinaud 	Let us return to the Rising Stones. We have quite a story to tell Tataru and my sister...
 	
Lyse 	I'm going to stay here until the Alliance calls on us. That way, I'll be close by if anything happens.
 	
Yshtola 	I will stay with her a while longer...
 	
Alphinaud 	You should have seen the look on Tataru's face when I recounted Lyse's─ Ah. I realize in retrospect that I should perhaps have waited for you to return... I, uh...also told Alisaie. Apologies.
 	
Tataru 	Did you know about Yd─I mean, “Lyse”? I had no idea! We only met after the Calamity, and her sister must already have been... Well, you know.
 	
Alisaie 	He may have mentioned, but Alphinaud has apprised me of all that came to pass in Gridania. Your only task now is to rest. This is the calm before the storm.
Alisaie 	Lyse has chosen her path, and as her friends, we must do what we can to support that choice. We are fated to join the conflict in any case. Once the Alliance has taken the Wall and opened the way to Gyr Abania, we will have little choice but to fight.
Alisaie 	Which is not to say the cause is unworthy. After all, ignoring the plight of those whom one might conceivably save is not wisdom but indolence, correct? I for one look forward to joining hands with the Ala Mhigans, and striking a blow against the tyranny of the Empire─as, I rather suspect, do you!
 	
Pipin 	Quick march! The imperials will soon come to their senses, and we must be ready to face their retribution!
Pipin 	It is almost time, Father.
Raubahn 	Aye, almost. Stand firm, Pipin.
Pipin 	I learned to brace myself against the charge of the Bull of Ala Mhigo. No foe will dislodge me!
Raubahn 	Very well, Ilberd...
I will take our homeland back...
Raubahn 	...for the both of us.
imperial officer	My lord Viceroy─our scouts have confirmed the preliminary reports. Baelsar's Wall has fallen to the Eorzean Alliance.
imperial officer	The hunt for Omega and the unknown eikon continues, though both yet elude us. My lord...their battle caused considerable damage across the region... Should we perchance divert some of our forces from the search to undertake necessary reconstruction work?
imperial officer	I─ Forgive me, my lord! I did not intend─ Your will be done!
Zenos 	"Unknown“? My spies tell me the Domans call it ”Shinryu,“ and that it proved a match for Omega.
Yes...the coming days promise to be most interesting.
Most interesting.
Quest complete. 	Quest complete.
