Dungeon Dialogue: Sohr Khai

An Answer of Sorrow (X: 10.6, Y: 13.6) - Hraesvelgr’s Trial Begins

Aymeric: Let us prove our worth, my friends! 　↳ Alphinaud: Aye, beyond a shadow of doubt!

First Boss, Before engaging (X: 10.6, Y: 8.4) - Chieftain Moglin

Alphinaud: By the Twelve, it's Chieftain Moglin! 　↳ Aymeric: That he should be part of the trial...

First Boss, During the fight (X: 10.6, Y: 8.4) - Chieftain Moglin

Chieftain Moglin: This is as far as you go, Forename! You and your ridiculous name won't make it past me, kupo! Chieftain Moglin: This is no time for naps, kupo! Everyone fights! No one quits! Chieftain Moglin: I'm not chieftain because I'm the biggest... I'm chieftain because I'm the baddest, kupo!

First Boss, After defeating (X: 10.6, Y: 8.4) - Chieftain Moglin

Chieftain Moglin: Kupopo... That's enough... You've made your point. This isn't a fight to the death, kupo... Alphinaud: I didn't expect to face the moogles... 　↳ Aymeric: I pray they aren't too badly hurt.

An Answer of Silence #1 (X: 11.8, Y: 16.0) - Reaching “An Answer of Silence”

Aymeric: <pant> The air is rather thin this high up... 　↳ Alphinaud: It isn't a race, so let us pace ourselves.

An Answer of Silence #2 (X: 11.8, Y: 11.6) - Ratatoskr’s Crest

Alphinaud: The wyrm depicted on yonder crest... 　↳ Aymeric: Neither Hraesvelgr nor Nidhogg. It could only be Ratatoskr.

Second Boss, Before engaging (X: 11.8, Y: 9.6) - Poqhiraj

Alphinaud: A winged horse...and an enormous one at that!

���↳ Aymeric: There isn't much room to maneuver. Have care!

Second Boss, After defeating (X: 11.8, Y: 9.6) - Poqhiraj

Alphinaud: That creature was truly fearsome in motion... 　↳ Aymeric: Thankfully we managed to rein it in.

An Answer of Shame #1 (X: 11.8, Y: 15.3) - Ratatoskr’s Sanctuary

Alphinaud: Good heavens, what a majestic place... 　↳ Aymeric: I daresay we are come to Ratatoskr's sanctuary.

An Answer of Shame #2 (X: 12.1, Y: 13.0) - Ice Path

Hraesvelgr: Thou hast weathered my trial thus far...but I am not convinced. I will try thy limits. Aymeric: We will win you over, Hraesvelgr. Mark my words. 　↳ Alphinaud: What awaits, I wonder...

Third Boss, Before engaging (X: 11.8, Y: 9.5) - Hraesvelgr

Hraesvelgr: Nidhogg will spare thee no clemency. And thus neither must I. Alphinaud: Pray watch over us, Ysayle! 　↳ Aymeric: All that I have, I shall bring to bear!

Third Boss, During the fight (X: 11.8, Y: 9.5) - Hraesvelgr

Hraesvelgr: Come, warrior. Show me what strength doth remain in thy frail mortal shell! Hraesvelgr: The sky is the domain of dragons. How wilt thou contend with such mastery? Hraesvelgr: Thou art formidable... But canst thou endure until the bitter end? Hraesvelgr: Fight on, warrior! Press thy attack! Hraesvelgr: ...Thy resolve hath withstood my scrutiny. Mayhap there is hope to be had in one such as thee...

Third Boss, After defeating (X: 11.8, Y: 9.5) - Hraesvelgr

Aymeric: I shan't soon forget this trial. Alphinaud: I gave my all. I pray it was enough...

Finished Estinien after a lot of back and forth on colors :)

I have my gripes with FFXIV but I have to admit the decision to use a longsword as the substitute for a crucifix when making Ishgard's French Catholic aesthetic was artistically fucking brilliant and I still haven't recovered from it almost a decade later.
