A New Venture

https://thebleatinglamb.carrd.co/

Aa! It is has been long since I have put quill to paper, for I have been so busy with my busi-ness. I have had the opportunity to perform once or twice. I even survived the singing of heavy metal unscathed . . . I think. Large quantities of tea afterward were required. But, I have had to do my family’s work, of course, and there has been much to do.

I have had grave concerns that without a show of success in furthering the Boliri interests here in Eorzea, I should be summoned back to the Steppes, and my father should decide this venture not worth the effort after all. I decided that rather than simply visiting businesses and promoting our products, perhaps a more permanent facility would be advantageous. Thus, I sought out a property to rent. I found one in Ul’dah, in a neighborhood known as The Goblet. It is a most pleasant location, right near a most excellent series of pools for swimming. It is not large, but I hope it will suffice. The local landlords are charging an exorbitant amount for the lease, so I hope this idea proves successful.

I plan to create a performance venue in the basement, a place to sing and dance . . . and perhaps, to wrestle as well. We often wrestled on the Steppes, and I miss such exhibitions. I have some ideas on the subject. Much work must be done to make the place more like what I envision, but I fear not the labor, for I am Xaela. Who knows? Perhaps there are other merchants or performers who might want to join in this endeavor. Time will tell.

I have named the establishment “The Bleating Lamb” (https://thebleatinglamb.carrd.co)  in honor of Lambchop. With luck, the doors will open soon.

Preface.

The journey of the Thursby family through the ages and beyond has been committed to written word longer than any record we now possess.

Through calamity, war and neglect not all of that long record has survived to our great loss.  Where journals and recorded tales fail we have legends.  Where the legends have been forgotten we have myths.  Usually where myths reach their limits, we have supposition drawn from what wise minds can conjure from the patterns that are replete through all of time.  

Unfailingly one is tasked with the duty of compiling what is known, can be determined, and what informed speculation can reason to be true.  When I was called to the service of my family in the role of high lore keeper of the Thursby family, the honor was mine.  Like many of my kindred the history of our family was largely scattered through tales told in the Imperial halls, books of well known stories, art portraying now mythical moments from ages, years, and worlds whose names are little known and even less understood.

The duty fell to me after my father’s passing.  He for years would take me by the hand through far flung lands, battlefields, halls of ancient lords.  He would pass by spoken word tales I hardly understood.  Whole spring days were spent being shown relics which I could not understand.  Often he would turn to me and tell me that it was not important that I understood then the names or meaning of the stories.  One day he told me I would realize what it all meant.  As I took up the mantle he left behind the words he spoke to me so many times would slowly come to hold profound and unnerving truth.  

“All of this has happened before, and all of it will happen again.”

And so it is.

~Victoria Thursby, Matron of Lore for the Thursby Family, Scions of Numenor.

Introduction to the Appendices of Second Book of Thursby [RR]

From my brother to my every instructor, I was warned in preparing to write this history that I would be disappointed.  I fancied myself a person seeking the answers to questions often asked among our family, it’s friends and allies.  For however much I did know or could learn there were constantly deeper questions.  Ones less often asked.  Sometimes discouraged from being asked.  Who were the Scions of Numenor.  Where did we come from.  Why are we here?  Or most directly to my efforts, why, again and again over so many years are swaths of our history lost, retold and lost once more.

The truth to many of these questions is not mine to share.  But in writings to follow you may find some illumination to guide you in your own quest for truth.

This Book of Thursby, so we have come to call our histories, will be the third of those we have.  It is compiled from the journals, writings, spoken anecdotes and such which remain after the Seventh Umbral Age of Eorzea.  Selections for other books and records are included to give context and elaboration where I think it of value.  Supposition and liberty to decide the records view of the truth bonds this work together.  In the appendices you will find a collection of notes, dispatches and anecdotes as well as tales which have no grander tales to contain them.  They are all the same what give richness to the history you are about to learn.

May these words guide you to your own truth.

Tinfalas Thursby,

Historian, Scions of Numenor

“I knew something was up ,sis the second G’raha asked to speak to me alone. I half suspected he had another prank in mind. I mean, I wasn’t a “book nerd” like Kas is nor was I as close to him as Eld was, but… We’ve both been pretty adept at cracking jokes I guess... Okay I like the little nerd! He was becoming another pain in ass brother I didn't have before! So when he told me that he had made a decision. I had a feeling… Like he was asking me to help him with it. I wondered why for a moment why he would come to me especially but He told me I would understand especially. I had come here for my brother… For my family. That was then I got a terrible feeling… … Like this was gonna be one of the last times we spoke. I wanted to tell him to not do it. Kas would be wrecked at the thought of losing one of her best friends and Eld… Well I don’t think Eld opens up all that much to most people. But… That look in his eyes… It was just like his, that Stupidly Nobel Idiot brother of ours, and I have a feeling it was the same for me when I told you and the others I was leaving to find him… I couldn’t stop him. Even if I tried. I told him I supported him but told him if he didn’t spend a moment with the twins they would kick his ass. That was worth it for the smile (Yeah, I can see why the cat twins likes him so much but don’t you dare tell them they got good taste or I won’t hear the end of it). Not sure what Raha has up his sleeve but… I get the feeling I’m gonna miss that pain the ass Miqo...”- from the letters of Amaya Kha, a Black Mage.

Six (years) in the mix. Six years ago today, I made the journey to Eorzea, without a dime to my name. I picked up archery first thing, and it will always have a place in my heart. This is my favorite bard outfit, and the first bow I got with endgame tomes, the Raijodo Kai. (Shout out to those who remember Law tomes and that ilvl 180.) I've experienced a lot in these six years, some amazing, some terrible. But it's definitely been an experience I wouldn't trade for anything. #ffxiv #ff14 #finalfantasy #finalfatasyxiv #finalfantasy14 #ffxivcommunity #crystaldatacenter #coeurlserver #arealmreborn #heavensward #stormblood #shadowbringers #gpose #gposers #ffxivsnaps #eorzeaphotos #thefactoryffxiv #miqote #catboy https://www.instagram.com/p/CR7lwxoLRsc/?utm_medium=tumblr
