"You're disturbing the elementals"

on Jan. 3, 2017

As mentioned with the last page, another player left a comment giving Galiena a solution to killing midge swarms, which was a link to a video of Mr. Miyagi catching flies with chopsticks. The first part of this 'entry' is Galiena's response to his 'suggestion'.

Other things to know:
"Waking the dead of Tam Tara"- Tam Tara Deepcroft is a cave-crypt dungeon where Galiena's distant Duskwight Elezen used to place their dead. One of the Duskwight's kings went bonkers, turned into a squid mage and started resurrecting the dead. You go in there early on in levels for sweet loots.
…and some fun creepy story-quests.

Chocobos- I'm sure I already explained these before, but they are the 'horse birds' of the Final Fantasy lore. Most people recognize Chocobos even if they don't play the games, they're kind of iconic. The people of Bentbranch Meadows are extremely protective of their Chocobos, as they breed them and claim they have extremely fragile dispositions.

The Elementals- Spirits of the Elements that are the primary source of life in the Black Shroud (within which Gridania is located.) They don't take kindly to outsiders, and have been known to reject people outright. It seems to be extremely easy to offend them and earn their demigod-like ire.

Thanalan- a desert country, sits to the south of the Black Shroud.

Ul'dah- The city in which Galiena's current adventure began, where she woke from her coma. It's located in Thanalan.
Also, in case you forgot, she was presented with a bill for 2 years of care while comatose by a chirurgeon (Or surgeon, but in the game they seem to use it as an umbrella term for anyone in the medical field.) and kind of skipped out on it two years prior.
