Panel 1: A hand roughly pins a wrist from a different person. The scene on the right shows Baba as the one who pushed the merchant's arm to the table, keeping her hand there with a tight grip. Baba: YOU!- Hyuran merchant: Agh! W- What the hell is wrong with you lass?! Baba: Use that bloody head of yours and tell me why were you about to offer silver to my partner! Panel 2: A hand appears from her side, reaching for the silver ring laying on the table. Hyuran merchant: I- I didn't know! I- On the scene shows Naldtala holding the ring. Baba lets go and tries to reach out to him with a concerned expression. Baba: Naldtala! Naldtala: T'is alright. Even without my gloves I would only feel a small itch. Panel 3: Naldtala holding the rings very close to him, inspecting it. Naldtala: Furthermore, I believe the silver is only found on the plating. From the weight of it seems the ring consist mainly of brass, and I cannot sense any conduits for magical attributes... That being said, the way it's forged... Naldtala: It's value should be way lower than you're requesting, sir. Panel 4: Naldtala rises his head to make eye contact to the merchant. At the same time, Baba realizes Naldtala's fact. Turning around and pointing a finger to the seller Baba: *gasp* scammer! Image on the right: Baba and Naldtala watching as the merchant is being apprehended in his stall by an officer. Baba: Wow, he truly is a con craftsman. Naldtala, so insightful as always! Naldtala: Well... in this type of things I suppose I am. Text below: Silver ore fact: There's a myth about it being created in times of eld by the leader of the Astral sect to strike down a summoned god from the Umbral sect. The weapon forged from it's wielder was so strong it is said that it split the world. A fantastical tale.

Panel 1: Baba and Naldtala meet a lalafellin vampire. Baba hands him a basket with a bottle inside. Baba: Here's the portion sent from the bank. Remember to talk to the provider to sign you as a new recipient. Lalafell man: My thanks! I'll let him know. And, if I may ask.. Baba: Yes? Panel 2: After taking and lowering the basket to his side the lalafell man talks with an enthusiastic expression. Lalafell man: I want to know if werewolf blood would taste any different. It doesn't have to be from the neck, of course! Just a drop from your finger for example. Baba: Oh! Well if it's a drop I wouldn't mind much, I guess? Though... Panel 3: Baba talks, scratching her cheek as a slight sheepish gesture. Meanwhile, Naldtala intensely stares at the lalafell man with a dark gaze. Baba: You see, as a woodsfarer I tend to expose myself in all kinds of situations which sometimes lead me to bear curses or poison. Though I have immunity to most of them now for safety measures my blood would do no good for a newly converted. So- Panel 4: The lalafell man sprints toward opposite side of the couple. Baba and Naldtala watch him as he leaves and runs away. Lalafell man: N- No problem! Thank you for the delivery! I- I have to go! Thank you, farewell! Baba: Huh? oh, okay! Take care. Right side illustration: Baba: Naldtala why did you scare him? For a moment I was afraid things would go ugly. Naldtala: Just because this is new for him doesn't mean he all but forgets manners. How uncouth. Text below: Vampire fact: Converted vampires are immune to silver and even get just mild fatigue to great exposition of sun like any mortal. However, their lifespans are barely longer than an average viera's.

Panel 1: A scene of G'raha Tia highly focused on a document he's currently working on. Scratching his temple contemplating with the same hand he's holding his pen. Krile and Baba are seen hiding and peeking from the edge of the door. Baba: "Wow, he's so into it, huh?" Krile: "I told him to let me do my fair share of work. I know he can handle it, but..." Panel 2: A zoomed in shot of Baba, smiling as she talks. Baba: "I mean, ain't that nice? Bet that's common within you two. After all you grew together, right?" Panel 3: A zoomed in shot now of Krile, left speechless over Baba's remark. Baba: "Under Galuf, you two are akin to siblings." Panel 4: A zoomed out shot of G'raha in the background still concentrated in his work without noticing the two lalafells discussion. Ojika has just recently walked nearby and eavesdropped. Krile: "... Do you mean that because of the ears?" Baba: "What?" Krile: "If you could wear them like I do then it will make you the middle child." Baba: "Excuse me?" Ojika: *thinking* "Is that gonna be a trend?..."

Panel 1: G'raha Tia, Krile and Baba approach Snoegeim. The three of them are wearing costumes of a vampire, a witch and a werewolf respectively. Baba: "Well now, someone looks excited for today's event." Snoegeim: "Oh! Krile. Raha and Baba too! You came to celebrate All Saint's Wake as well it seems! Fitting now that we are together for this occasion." Panel 2: G'raha: "Fitting?" Krile: "Oh right! This event is based on a lgend involving the Twelve, is it not?" Snoegeim: "Yes! The myth has it each year the gods invite the saints to their realm for a feast in celebration." The scene changes to a disappointed Snoegeim with a small flashback of Nophica. Snoegeim: "Just recently I wished to witness it myself at the Omphalos. Alas they told me to celebrate the festivities in here. I couldn't say no but I was so excited to see it for myself..." Nophica: ("Your kind also celebrates in their own way. That you would be with them I know it will be a joyous time.") Panel 3: Different headshots of everyone, talking about this development. G'raha: "Wait, then does that mean such occurrence is true?" Snoegeim: "Could you believe it?! It wasn't until now about the realization of it!" Krile: "In that case, we may even learn more about it during these days." Baba: "What?! No! W-We are supposed to go treat and tricking! (Krile, don't do this to me.)" Panel 4: (Meanwhile, somewhere) A shot of Azeyma, Nymeia, Althyk, Halone and Nald'thal communicating between each other and certainly a man who's absolutely is not Deryk (he is) as the latter carries full bags in both hands. Azeyma: "Don't forget about the cakes. It's been so long we got those." Nymeia: "The cakes... It's been forever I tasted those fruit tarts." Althyk: "(Nymeia...)" Halone: "Speaking of tarts, my believers in Ishgard have quite the selection. Bring those for to-" Nald: "THIS FEAST IS HELD IN OUR MOON CYCLE AND WE DECIDE THE DESSERT!" Thal: "We are right..." Not Deryk: "You guys..."

Krile: "Oh, she is simply not one to stay sitting in a desk all day. Surely you see what I mean. Speaking of!-" Off panel, someone knocks the door of the room who is none other than Baba herself. The latter opening the door to greet them. Baba: "I am back! Krile and- Erenville too!" Panel 2: Baba joins them, talking to Erenville. Baba: "It's nice to see you! I was told you were helping to rebuild the Students. Thank you for your hard work!" Erenville: "The pleasure is mine. And congratulations for becoming a member of the Students. Did you return from doing fieldwork perhaps?" Baba: Thank you! My trip wasn't quite a petition of the Students, but- Ah, yes! I wanted to tell you about it, Krile." Krile: "Oh? What is?" Panel 3: Baba making a triumphally gesture Baba: "We went to the void!" Panel 4: A shot view of Erenville looking down at the two lalafells. Krile: "O- Oh!... I see." Baba: "Yes!

Panel 2: A small flashback of Baba ordering a spicy dish for her and Zero beside her. Mihleel: "Are you sure... ma'am?" Baba: "Yes! Don't worry I'll pay for it." The present scene is of both of them now with their dish served, looking at it while Mihleel stands at a nearby corner. Mihleel: *thinking* "The Warrior of Light asked for our spiciest dish in the menu but it's the spiciest for a reason! Even among locals only a few can handle the spice and she's going to share it with our new visitor?!? I don't want to be held responsible for any accident... Panel 3: Scenes on sucession of Zero taking the first bite and later Baba. Mihleel: "She ate it!" Mihleel: "She's... unaffected? And seems to like it I think? Thank the Sisters..."

Akano has his arms crossed with an exasperated expression watching a child Baba happily petting and scratching the neck of Akano's carbuncle. Akano: "I'm well familiar with you, Warrior of Light."

Akano: "You see lots of faces these days I can't blame you." Baba: "Haha! I guess you're right."

Panel 1: Narration: For when answers lie outside home. Some very far from others. Very far, far away too. Baba: "I'm doing a survey of sorts and I need much data as possible. Would you be willing to answer some of my questions?" Panel 2: Rammbroes and Y'mithra in Saint's Coinach. A "random" M'iqote man is seen in the background. Rammbroes: "Well, can't say I know everything regarding Allagan's impact in history, in pair of our friend no less. Regardless, I'll be happy to assist you." Y'mithra: "I mean, aren't you the savior of the whole star? What could you possibly do not know already? Haha, but I jest! I'm glad I can be of help too, in return let's do some catch-up, eh?" Panel 3: The scene changes to the Crystarium in the First. Cyella and Unukalhai are at the Wandering Stairs. On the background, Giott, Lue-Reeq, Cerigg and Taynor are seen together, probably, in a drinking contest (Taynor not participating). Cyella: "Aside from what we talked before I'm not quite sure what much else I can tell you. If you do require details then I shall do my best to remember and tell. If you also want to ask for Ryne's friend then be in your way to find her. Cyella: "Recompiling all that we can share may take- STOP MAKIN' A RUCKUS OVER THERE!!" Unukalhai: "But we'll do it! I'll be more than happy to help!" Panel 4: The scene changes to the facility of Pandemonium. Erichthonios happily loses himself on telling Baba everything he knows while Themis stands by his side, holding a soft smile. Themis: *thinking* "I know not the purpose or why Azem created a familiar like this, she has many... unspecific functions. Still, she truly is a surprise of theirs. Seems Ericthonios mood has brighten up too."

Panel 1: Baba scrunches her face in disgust. Baba: "Ugh. The Archon loaf... No. NO! I CAN'T EAT THIS!" Baba drinks big gulps from her beverage as G'raha looks at her in sympathy. G'raha: "I hate to admit that I share the sentiment now that I grew accustomed to more, uhm, decent flavored meals before returning here." Panel 2: Baba puts down her cup with a loud *cluck!*, her gaze directing now to Krile. Her expression of disgust doesn't change. Baba: "How could you all been subjugated by this horrendous dietary way of life! I'll take a single cabbage leaf any day than this." Krile: "It's about the nutrient balance and efficiency, Baba. Loathe it as much as you want, it helped us day and night as we spend long times on our own respective studies." Baba: "Now then, do not dare tell me morale isn't part of health too." Panel 3: A slightly zoom out view of the three friends around the table. While G'raha and Krile now talk to each other Baba is seen holding a pensive pose with both her arms raised on the table. G'raha: "This talk only makes me appreciate the Last Stand even more. Remember our small party in that night shortly of our arrival here? I cannot think of a delicious feast held here that it wouldn't be their menu." Krile: "Hear, hear." Panel 4: Baba with a great determined expression. Baba: "Final Days or not, if another catastrophe befall unto us we must protect our world. For everyone." Baba: "And those who specialize in cuisine." G'raha and Krile: "You don't have to mention the cuisine part..."

Panel 1: A shot view of Krile and G'raha Tia, both seem busy with tomes in their hands. Krile looks at G'raha quietly. Narration: Blessed of the Echo, Krile have been hearing the thoughts of a very loud mind these days. G'raha: *thinking* "It hasn't been that long, but it feels odd to having quieter days now. When it will be our next journey, I wonder." Panel 2: The scene changes to G'raha Tia and Krile having a meal at the Last Stand. G'raha has his eyes closed, thoughtfully, as he chews. Krile silently stares. G'raha: "Baba keeps talking about that new Arkasodara business she has been helping. She says the food is delicious I want to try it someday..." Panel 3: Krile and G'raha are now seen near Old Sharlayan's port. G'raha scrutinizes the recent cargo delivered. At G'raha's thoughts, Krile holds a... very "much done" expression. G'raha: "Monitor of cargo from the ships, the airships... Ahh, I wish to travel again soon." Panel 4: Krile and G'raha are now joined by Baba. At Baba's recent request, Krile gestures to an overwhelmed thankful G'raha. Krile: "How about you take him along instead? I can handle things from here." Baba: "Awesome! you should come along too." Krile: "It's fine, don't worry." (Perhaps you can ask Urianger, he's with Thancred at this time.) G'raha: "Krile..." *Author's note: Last panel takes place in 6.1 story, before traversing to Alzadaal's Legacy.

Panel 1: The Wandering Minstrel at Old Sharlayan, just finishing his recent song. Minstrel: "A frightening way of how the star might have met it's demise. Would you not agree?" Panel 2: Baba with Starbird Meteion, flabbergasted. Baba cradles Meteion in her arms, soothing her. Baba: "Uhm... I admire your retellings, sir. But mayhap would you mind a more... cheery cheeky tale?" Panel 3: " ... " The minstrel has a blank expression, simply staring. Panel 4: A zoom out shot of the three near the port in Old Sharlayan. The scene is as normal as it could get. Minstrel: "I suppose a light anecdote would be a good change of pace. Can't promise events very grand though." Baba: "That's good enough!... I think" So it ends the WaB entry #XXX The Unsung Tale of the Star.

First row: Baba and G'raha Tia are seen haveing a conversation with each other as they walk through a field. Baba: "Say Raha, do you hold a patron guardian from the Twelve? We have met four of them so far, so is it anyone from them?" Graha: "Me? Hmm... If I were to think of the one I hold the closest... maybe Thaliak? Although as you know, Seekers of the Sun praise Azeyma. To be honest, t'is not something I found myself to ponder over." Second row: As they keep chatting, a bush in front of them rustles mysteriously. Baba: "Well I was raised close to Limsa Lominsa yet my family choose Nymeia instead of Llymlaen! I suppose there are beliefs that go further than one's origins." Graha: "That they did? An interesting choice they choose the Spinner." Baba: "Well! it was my own Papa who decided to-" Third row: Their chat is interrupted by the sudden appearance of a springgan, which was inside the bush from earlier. It goes running away in front of them holding an ore. Graha: "You know, after our encounter with Rhalgr and Byregot I wonder sometimes if they are watching us. Like... more closer than we think." Baba: "Watching over us? I guess that's what gods do, eh?" From Baba's back, a little mummy peeks their head.

With you and Ejika by my side the threat from Eureka is no more and now we can get to rebuild the Stu-" Baba pats Krile's back. At this gesture Krile is left speechless, and then, pensive. Baba: "Hey now, you should give yourself more credit! You are doing more than we could ever, Krile!" Third row: A flashback of Krile as Galuf does the same gesture Baba did. A pat on the back, praising Krile for her work. Fourth row: Krile turns her gaze to the stack of documents on the desk. Krile: "Thank you, Baba." Baba: "Hm? What was that?"

I wanted to ask-" Second row: Baba smiles in amusement at Ojika's intend to have enough resolve to keep speaking. Ojika: "Y-you went to see the forbidden archives, right?" Baba: "Oh, oh yeah."

Didn't know you were the type of person Oji! Alright, I can tell you one single secret I found there." Ojika: "Really?! T-then, I'm listening." Baba: "Very well. I found out that-" Third row: In another scene, Krile comes to Baba bearing a serious frown and hands on her hips. However, Baba's doesn't feel pressed. Krile: "Baba." Baba: "Yes?" Krile: "I believe this was clear, but we aren't allowed to share topics regarding anything from the forbidden archives. If anyone found out, you, or maybe we, can get in big trouble. Not even need to mention about our reputation..." Baba: "Oh I know, in truth, I haven't said anything about it! Swear it." Krile: "Wait, truly? Then... what did you..." Back in a coner behind Krile, G'raha is seen approaching Ojika who's looking away, slumped. Graha: "Ojika? Are you alright, man?"

Fourth row: Outside from the lalafells view, Y'shtola has a deadpan expression. Meanwhile, Baba scrunches her face. The image both of them are thinking about is of Y'shtola with the drippys in her full magical girl esplendor (Froath and Foam!) Y'shtola: "She's thinking about it." Baba: "I'm thinking about it!"

Krile: "Please Ejika, it's been a while since we have seen each other and I have to thank you for your contribution on the adamantite as well! It will be only one meal at the Last Stand, I promise." Ojika: "I know you wish to attend to business right away but you should rest after a long voyage too." Second row: Ejika and Baba start bickering while Krile and Ojika can only just stand and watch (the former trying to calm them down), G'raha Tia is watching the group of lalafell from afar. Baba: "Ojika's right! You might as well look yourself in the mirror, that weary face speaks volumes." Ejika: "Do not talk to me. If Krile knew better she would not have recruited you, of all people, to the organization!" Baba: "Why you-! You are so bloody mean!" G'raha: "This sure is a rare sight. Us, the Students, reunited like this... " Third row: G'raha Tia standing. Connecting some dots (i think) Fourth row: G'raha's smile twitch a little at the image on his head: A version of him and the rest as if they were like Snow White and the 4 dwarfs.

First row: Baba turning around at the sudden presence at the door who happens to be Ojika. Baba: "Hm? Who is it?" Ojika: "Ah! Baba, I thought you left. I'll be back later to switch your bedsheets then." Baba: "Oh no, it's fine! I was gonna leave now anyway. I was just watching these." Second row: Ojika walks directly to Baba as she returns her gaze to a collage of papers and notes plastered on the wall. Ojika: "Ahh, the notes from the Students. Interesting, are they? While some poured tome over tome every night others would debate with their colleagues on theories and the like." Baba: "They really must have worked hard." Third row: Reminiscing, Ojika smiles Ojika: "That they did. These notes and records are proof of that." Fourth row: Baba lifting a note on a poster which displays a beings very similar to Ifrit in a two piece swimsuit, or worse, lingerie with a doodled person leaning for a kiss Baba: "Even this?" Ojika: "No. Not that."

First row: G'raha Tia and Krile are sitting on a table, reading their own books in hand. Baba approaches them, sighing exasperatedly: Baba: "These type of people again." Krile: "What is it?" Baba: "They come asking to meet the Warrior of Light but they don't believe it's me! What does make a Warrior of Light anyway?!" Second row: Krile describing her definition of a warrior (a basic warrior man with a big sword) Krile: "Well, I suppose the image of a strong, big person is in mind. Holding the mightiest of weapons, maybe one of those swords of legend and myth? Although that would be just a normal knight but with unique appearance..." Third row: G'raha Tia describing his definition of a warrior, his ears wiggling at his extensive description (definitely not Meteor John Final Fantasy) G'raha: "Maybe they refer a knight in clad armor, wore down by the rough battles and struggles they have gone through yet it shines with the sun's light. Their skin display the scares of many battles, but at their gaze they have the most gentle of eyes, filled with kindness and goodness. Also they would have a big cape with- Krile: A hero from you storybooks, we get it." Fourth row: Baba describing her definition of a warrior (DEFINITELY, one resembling FF1 Warrior of Light (Elidibus who) Baba: "I think.... they expected something like him?" G'raha and Krile: "Exaggerated but it actually makes sense..."

Second row: G'raha Tia looking down on Baba with a smug expression. G'raha: "You'll have to forgive me, Baba. I have enjoyed our time together and now, this moment will be our last. As it should always have been from the very beginning." Third row: Three things happen in succession, Baba shouting "Don't you dare! You!!-", G'raha simply smirking and then a hand dropping down a card at a mat. Fourth row: G'raha and Baba are seen playing Triple Triad cards together, the former obviously having won their current match. Baba slams her fist on the table G'raha: "Double combo. I win!" Baba: "THESE RULES FUCKING SUCK!"

First row: Krile and Baba are in an office room together. Krile is reviewing a stack of documents and papers on her desk as Baba passes through. She gapes at the amount of papers that Krile has. Krile: Hey Baba, since you'll be staying at Sharlayan for a while, it would be nice if we can divide our paperwork. Baba: Work on... Ah... Well you see, I just got a call from Tataru and needed my assistance in Mor Dhona. Krile: ... Did she now? Baba: Y-yeah! I'll be going shortly. Second row: Abruptly, Krile grips her head in pain letting a gasp. At that Baba sharply turns around in surprise. She quickly goes in front of Krile to check on Krile, who's still displaying signs of a headache. Krile: Agh! The Echo at this moment?! Why? Baba: Wuahh! Krile?! Krile: I... see you. I see you doing something but that other voice is... Third row: Baba tries to somehow placate Krile's predicament. Baba: I- I was just buying Triple Triad cards to play with Raha. I was not in call with- Fourth row: Krile rises straight up normally, as she hold a calm smile. Krile: Oh, so you weren't then? Well, now that you are free I suppose you can work on the documents, right? Baba stands frozen in place.
