- Alisaie has a look of dissatisfaction.
My father may be right─that I am still groping in the dark for answers. But I needed him to know that I would never stop searching. I owed that much to Arenvald...and myself. |
We shall have to think very carefully about how we are to proceed from here. |
You may encounter some raised eyebrows, but do continue to claim the Students as your sponsor whensoever the need arises.
I believe in the guiding principles of the Scions...and I know my grandfather would have as well. |
I apologize for the trouble I've caused you. I was pondering the significance of what I had just read as I left the restricted section...
...And knocked over the security mammet on my way out. I promise to be more vigilant next time. |
 Cutscene start.
|
The overall picture has grown clearer, yes, but that's in spite of the Forum being so maddeningly vague about this duty of theirs.
Why are they so reluctant to explain their actions in plain words?
Survival, come what may... Is Father's work so vital that it takes precedence over his own family? |
|
Alphinaud...? Alisaie...? It is you!
When I heard you'd been dragged before the Forum, I came as swiftly as I could. I am so very glad they allowed you to stay...
|
|
Ameliance Leveilleur, at your service.
And you fine people must be the Scions of the Seventh Dawn. How lovely it is to finally meet you!
|
|
Mother, please. We don't wish to make things difficult for you. If word reaches Father that you were here─
|
|
Oh, bother that. Am I to be chastised for speaking with my own children!? I am well aware that you and "Master Fourchenault" are not on the best of terms at the moment, but I've been absolutely desperate to see my darlings again!
You will come by the house, won't you? I have gifts waiting.
|
|
The timing couldn't be better. As matters stand, we shan't be going anywhere until we discuss matters with Thancred's group and reconsider our options.
Go, visit your home. We will be back at the annex when you are ready to rejoin us.
|
|
I'm not sure we─ Forename, what do you think?
|
Forename? The Forename Surname!?
What a splendid day this has turned out to be! Champion of Eorzea, I insist that you join us!
Ah, but we must be quick about it. Not for my own benefit, but should my husband return and find you enjoying our hospitality, the servants will be made to suffer the consequences.
Forename! If you would be so kind as to escort my children to the estate...?
|
|
And then she was gone—and with her any opportunity to protest...
|
|
Indeed—the matter is settled. Enjoy yourselves, you three!
|
| Cutscene end.
|
I'm sure Alphinaud thinks nothing of it─he invited classmates over all the time. But I, well... I wasn't the most... It was a different time for me, all right!? |
|
I apologize... My mother is not one to take no for an answer. Still, I am glad─relieved, even─to see her in such high spirits.
What say you, Forename? Though it seems we shall have little enough time to enjoy it, will you accompany us on our visit home?
|
Let us give Alisaie a push, then, and be on our way. |
What? Right now? Nothing for it, I suppose, but Mother was most insistent you come as well. We shall be waiting for you by the Rostra. |
Shall we hurry along to the estate? Mother will be wondering where we are. |
Oh no, I'm not going to suffer this by myself. Make sure Alphinaud is coming along first! |

|
Fine... If we're going, then let's get it over with! But be sure to stay in the entrance hall─no peeking into our private chambers, thank you very much!
|
|
Why ever not? Your room was always perfectly neat and tidy...
|
|
Everyone has things they'd rather keep to themselves, don't they? Cherished mementos you couldn't bring yourself to throw away, childhood toys─
I mean, uh... Gah, never mind! Leveilleur Estate is that way, straight down the stairs. Come on!

Alphinaud and Alisaie are now accompanying you. Keep them at your side in order to proceed with quest objectives.
You can leave your quest companions behind by entering a different area, putting too much distance between you, or by speaking with them and selecting the option to part ways.
If you wish to have your companions join you again, return and speak with them at the original location. |
After all we've been through together, 'tis strange to be here with you now. To come full circle and see how much has changed... |
Leveilleur Estate is in the northern part of Journey's End, just down the stairs from the Rostra.
Oh, and please don't make a fuss when we get there. It's only a house! |
Not going after all? Then neither shall I! Though I suppose I'll never hear the end of it from Mother if we don't... Hmm. We'll wait at the Rostra in case you change your mind. |
Decided to come with us? And you're sure about this? <sigh> All right...if only to see the smile on Mother's face. |
When Alisaie and I were little, this bridge was as far as we were permitted to wander alone.
I say "alone," but my mother or a servant was always somewhere nearby, keeping a watchful eye.
And now look at us. Traveling to different continents...different worlds, even. |
As children, Alphinaud and I would often wait here for our father to come home from work.
It must've been a day when his meetings ran long, because I remember growing restless, and leaning out over the railing to watch the water rush by.
Father, of course, arrived at that exact moment. Came pounding down the path in a panic, crying out my name... |
Oh, are you the advance party? I should like to receive you all at once, if that's not too much to ask! |

This is the estate of House Leveilleur. If you do not have an appointment, I'm afraid I must ask you to leave. |
It is my honor and pleasure both to serve Lady Ameliance. There is no more beautiful, more kind-hearted person in the realm, and I am happy to attend to her every need. |
|
And here you are at last! Please, do come in!
|
| Voiced cutscene start.
|
|
What? What are you gawping at?
|
What will you say?
| House Leveilleur in all its grandeur!
|
Scion headquarters must have seemed squalid indeed...
|
Just admiring the craftsmanship.
|
|
Oh gods, please don't! It makes me feel like a spoiled princess.
|
|
|
I'll have you know I'm quite fond of the Rising Stones!
|
|
|
Oh, I...I suppose I never gave the décor much thought. I'm glad that you approve. I think.
|
|
| Voiced cutscene end.
|
Seeing how the young lord and the lady of the house have grown... It nearly moves me to tears! |
The garb worn by Lady Alisaie and Lord Alphinaud was commissioned especially for them by Lady Ameliance. She spares no effort in expressing her profound love for her dear children. |
And that was that. Only the gods know when we'll be back again... |
Thank you for indulging Mother's request─I can see it meant a lot to her. And I, uh, shall refrain from inquiring as to the content of your private conversation.
Our visit was all too brief... For now, however, it will have to suffice. As will these tokens of home that we carry with us─these gifts to help us remember who we are and whence we came...
But enough sentimentality. Let us return to the annex and rejoin our companions! |
If I intend to master these sage's armaments, that will mean learning to imbue them with the same aether that I poured into Moonstone and Obsidian.
'Tis difficult to grasp the essence of such an entity... For me, it will help to think of the nouliths as allies in battle—simply a new form of the energy which went into manifesting my Carbuncle companions. |
Don't think for a moment that I'm jealous of Alphinaud's new weapons. They're far more suited to him than me.
We left for Eorzea in matching outfits, but our styles—both fashion and fighting—have long since diverged. If anything, I'm proud of the differences between us. |
For us to feel responsible for the schism of House Leveilleur would be pure hubris. After all, we are merely on the outskirts of what is, essentially, a family affair.
And yet neither can we claim the indifference of strangers. To hear their mother welcome them so warmly was a joy...and a relief. |
As curious as I am to learn of the truth of this "duty," I wonder what else the Forum is hiding. A calamitous secret whose origin lies in the aetherial sea...
Duplicity aside, however, I do not believe Master Fourchenault means us ill. Even the harsh words he had for his children stemmed not from anger, I think, but desperation. |
Enjoyed your time with the Leveilleurs, I hope? I would ask how the twins fared, but their new outfits tell the tale!
I only hope we can help them to reconcile with their father, that they might return home one day with their heads held high...
In the meantime, we edge ever closer to the secret the Forum strives to hide. And the flower bequeathed to you by Hydaelyn is sure to guide us going forward. |

It's wonderful how a garment given in love can so easily change one's whole outlook.
I remember when I was still coming to terms with my talent in the Echo. Just being wrapped in the robe my grandfather gave me somehow made everything less daunting. |
