So as it turns out... Huntsville, AL finally has its own Aetheryte! Right by Wicks Family Field at Joe Davis Stadium. Which begs the question for @en.finalfantasyxiv.com, what's Vesper Bay's excuse?

Oh hey, neat! So yeah, I got to design the badges for Otakon this year! It is very exciting!!! I hope everyone who goes enjoys their badges. Otakon and Square Enix have both been a joy to work with.

Not the #FFXIV crossover I expected...

Thank you to everyone who showed up for either of our #FFXIV panels on Saturday at #MomoCon! It is always an amazing experience to see and hang out with only the most high quality of folks. You are all the best. Hope you enjoyed the panels!

We'll be at @momocon.bsky.social this year with TWO PANELS! Both on Saturday! We're starting off at 7PM with our FFXIV Fan Panel-Stival where we'll be talking about Evercold. Then at 10PM we'll be going over all the music of past Final Fantasy games in Final Fantasy XIV! #Momocon #FFXIV #panels

We also got the chance to check out the Jollibee X Final Fantasy XIV Takeover last weekend too! It was... A little bit less crowded than it was during FanFest. Just a smidge. (Still very busy!)

That lemon bar was fire! We also got a Prish drink and DPS burst before we left and the DPS drink was my absolute favorite.

So a couple of weeks ago during our @mtac.bsky.social #FFXIV Fan Panel, @itsbasiltime.com surprised Anna by showing this as a slide and told everyone there to go vote for it if it showed up. And it did! So you should go do the thing. Basil also shilled for @gatewayfate.bsky.social so go there, too.
