GMV ► Haurchefant & WoL (dubbed) tribute | FFXIV

this took me a bit too long but i've been sobbing a lot ok
HEADCANONS EXPLANATION BELOW

WOL & VOICEOVER
this particular warrior of light is called Sera, my main goal was to let the voice lines shine so it felt kindy empty not to have her talking too. so she got voiceovered by me which was a weird and embarassing experience but it was also fun to see her with a voice, like u know, more lively

EARLY ASTROLOGIAN & BONDING OVER SERVING
sera meets haurche as an astrologian (yes i ignore the fact that you unlock it after ARR patches xd) and her whole deal is very similar to his; as a healer, her duty is to protect

ROMANCE
in my headcanon WoL and haurche are romantically connected before the vault events, tho i didnt highlight it much so everyone with every approach can find their own WoL in this little video

LETTER QUOTE
[see below]

WHY IS WOL CHANGING TO DANCER
she breaks down into pieces after the vault and cant stand seeing herself as a healer. she decides to pick up another profession for some time. as sera forces herself to change her relationship with cold weather (as in sort of trying to understand haurche's love for his city and home), she finds some freedom of mind in letting herself be carried by the cold breeze and so picks up dancer job.

OTHER CHARACTERS & ISHGARD
i wanted to highlight a lot of haurche's words and overall beliefs. that's why i decided to include "unrelated" events like y'shtola or thancred's return - haurche stated many times that WoL is not alone and was optimistic about finding missing allies. i show ysayle's sacrifice cos in the background i play the voicelines of him standing in her defence despite it must have been hard, etc etc. also there's bits of ishgard's evolution cos well, that's the nation our boy was ready to give his life for

BACK TO ASTROLOGIAN
as they decide to challenge nidhogg, it is clear to my WoL that she's way more experienced as an astrologian and decides to pick up her armor and weapons again now that she might save another life with them

ENDING
in my headcanon sera decides to officially move into house fortemps residence (doesn't matter much cos WoL keeps adventuring but she makes it her home at last), in my own head aymeric's question regards haurche's absence; but well, the doors get opened and there's no time to think lol

if you read this thank u i know it doesnt matter much but its so cute that you gave your time to my little beloved WoL funfacts ily

letter quote:
"Thoughts Unspoken", in "Tales from the Dragonsong War" from "Chronicles of Light" book (i believe it should also be available online?), overall in the book the letter is undelivered cos "woL sUreLy knOws tHat alReaDy" but i do not agree with this sentiment. in my headcanon it is given to them after finding it in haurche's room ok......
