Lalapril 2024 ✨ Day 1: Arrival

When Hali finally arrived in the Silver Bazaar in western Thanalan, her excitement was mounting. This was not only her first time she was seeing any kind of civilization outside of Old Sharlayan in her whole life, but Thanalan is also the homeland of her maternal grandmother. Once she reached the gates of Ul’dah, Hali could not contain her excitement any longer as she conjured sparkles all around her to match the gleam in her eyes. She had finally arrived at the city of her ancestors, and for the foreseeable future, her new home.

Twilight

Twilight Over Thanalan. It's always nice to take in the starry night sky of Thanalan. Here's Celica, standing right above the Coffer & Coffin—a frequent stopping place for her, in-between work stops and visits to the Bloodsands—doing exactly that, looking over to the dim night glow of the city she calls home.

Unfinished Nald's Reflection

Okay, so here's something I stumbled upon randomly.

I was getting material for the future, and stumbled upon an out of bounds area.

This area led me to a cave, and this room was at the end. This is unusual - I happened upon an "edge of the world" scenario earlier today, and this room mainly looked like there were world objects that were supposed to be there, but either didn't load in or weren't placed there. I had a hunch what it could, be and sure enough...

This is Thal's Respite, nestled north of Camp Drybone. We'll talk more about it in the future, but for now, take a look at the picture of it and compare it to the picture above. Especially look at the left hand side - that little torch area with the ledge fits exactly with the missing texture, and the statue area itself also fits!

In ARR, there are two statues of Nald'thal. One is north of Drybones, called Thal's Respite. One is in the Red Labyrinth (south of Little Ala Mhigo), called Nald's Reflection. In 1.0...there is only Thal's Respite. There is no Nald's Reflection. Given the lore of Ul'dah and Nald'thal, this doesn't make sense - there are two statues because Ul'dah considered Nald and Thal to be "seperate but whole" - they are twins, although part of the same godhead.

Thus, it doesn't make sense to only have one of those shrines in Thanalan in 1.0, especially when there are two of these statues in Ul'dah in 1.0 (in the THM guild and in Milvaneth Sacrarium).

Seems to be that there was going to be one, but they either ran out of time or budget or simply didn't want to finish it.

What is really interesting to me is the placement - this unfinished room was found literally right in Zana'rak, which is the Amaljaa's main area. It's their home. This room was found in a blocked off area. I noticed that there seemed to be a cave entrance on the other side, so I phased through the barricade. I was expecting to see the edge of the world...but not this. If the original area was meant to be Zanar'ak...this has interesting implications for the original plot of FFXIV. How pissed off would the Uldahn's be that one of Nald'thal's shrines be occupied by the Amalj'aa? Especially since Nald represented the living and most importantly for the desert nation -commerce. Ul'dah is a country built on commerce, so much so that the city is in an ever fight between the Sultana and the merchants. What a plot point that would be! "Hey Warrior of Light/1.0 Adventurer, the Amalj'aa is defiling this statue of our patron diety, go and run them out of their home." However, this is just stipulation. It's possibly it was only worked on in an out of bounds area outside Zanar'ak and then moved closer to another location. Given that is in another location in ARR, a more neutral location, just makes me wonder the original plan for Nald's Reflection. Given what happens later in ARR's story in the post Shadowbringer patches, it's probably a good thing that it was moved to be in a neutral location - those Ul'dahns probably would never live with the idea of the beastmen occupying the shrine. TL;DR: There is no Nald's Reflection in 1.0, but looks like it was merely unfinished. It is located out of bounds near Zanarak, at the end of a cave entrance you wouldn't normally have access to. Given the story of ARR, this has interesting consequences.
