((Quickly scrawled on the top of the page in atrocious handwriting is what seems like notes Anafenza has taken during a very rushed research sessionâŚ))
Vignesang house accused heresy â consorting with dragons   unnatural abbilities  no transformation allowed?  What mean?? House leader â mistress vignesang â tried at witchdrop  body not found â assumed guilty of heresy.  Rest of house now servants subsumed within Dzamael  Â
  Ishgard is full of records. While most literature concerning heretics and their stories were burned or just didnât exist thanks to the War, records of trials and judgements?  Plenty.
Mistress Vignesang was tried on grounds of heresy shortly after one of Nidhoggâs raids on Ishgard some hundred years ago. Â The woman had been seen on the top of her roof, screaming at the attacking dragons, within a maelstrom-like aura of darkness. Â She was tried at Witchdrop â meaning they hurled her off a cliff. Â If she lived, sheâd have been considered guilty and struck down; if she died, she couldnât have been in league with the dragons, and so would have enjoyed Haloneâs blessing of pardon in death.
Seriously? Â Who believes this shite??
They never found her body at the bottom, so it was assumed she transformed into some kind of beast and escaped. Â Because of her guilt, the house was torn apart; surviving family members became servants to one of the great houses, Dzamael. Â After that, no more record of the name exists. Â Nothing outside of that judgement exists, either; whatever history the house had, it was destroyed.
No one at house Dzamael would speak to us.  We couldnât even get past the door guard   Given our appearance, Iâm sure we were immediately met with distrust despite the dragonsong war being done   Any hope of speaking with any descendents is a lost cause for now.
 Another dream â Again, the light-covered field.  More of the child-like laughter and calling those words again  Aenc Tyr  The sky was a ablaze with light, but there was no warmth from a sun.  It was not unpeaceful, and I awoke with the dawn feeling rested, but I write this to just continue to keep record for my own benefit.  I still do not hear the song the others hear, but even my own song â the vignesangâs song, for surely it was HERâS â has grown more faint.
We return to the tower tomorrow. Â I donât know about kiratai, but I should be glad to be away from this freezing hell

Anafenzaâs Result:
Unicorn
The unicorn is a legendary animal that has been described since antiquity as a beast with a large, pointed, spiraling horn projecting from its forehead. In European folklore, the unicorn is often depicted as a white horse-like or goat-like animal with a long horn and cloven hooves (sometimes a goat's beard). In the Middle Ages and Renaissance, it was commonly described as an extremely wild woodland creature, a symbol of purity and grace, which could only be captured by a virgin. If you get this result, you are typically seen as modest. You offer great advice to your friends in need and you're generally viewed as your friend group's therapist. You're empathetic and you are always willing to help out your friends whenever you can.You're bubbly and seen as a little ray of sunshine.

Sasai Sai, a cousin of the twins, brought Kirikun home, at least to The Tower. He was alive, but still asleep - hadnât woken for the weeks he was in reunion Sai was told. There was nothing very wrong with him, that they could tell or she could tell but there he was. just dropped in the bed and not moving, wrapped up in bandages.
I thank the gods my brother is back and alive...now if heâd only waken
Anafenza tugged on the small jewel embedded in her horn. Â She twisted it and tugged, feeling a small pop in her horn as the pearl came free, chipping away some of the horn as she did so. Â She handed is to the Commander, who was pulling out her scanning device â the âtricorder.â
âAlright, that takes care of the two of us.â Â The Commander looked up to the other blue woman. Â âYour phone; itâs still getting a signal, yeah? Â That should help locate and isolate your signal as well.â
âI can do you even better,â Stormy grinned, pulling the slender, black, rectangular device from her pocket. âItâs tied to the medicom system; when it detects my lifesigns are hitting critical levels, it activates the emergency transport beacon to send me to the nearest hospital.â
âItâs tied to a system on Earth in your time with a full reading of your vitals!â  The Commander smiled wide and nodded.  âThatâs great!  Let me pair it to my tricorder.â  She began tapping buttons on the device, then paused and looked up.  âUmâŚdo you have a âblue tooth?ââ
Stormy snickered, tapping the deviceâs screen before handing it over. Â âBluetooth is enabled; you can pair it to your tricorder?â
The Commander shrugged. âIt should be sending the correct signal? Â Oh! There we go. Â Yes.â Â She took the phone and began tapping on the screen, then set the two aside with her badge. Â âThat takes care of those. Â Now how do we fit the linkpearl in?â
âI couldâŚâ  Anafenza began, thinking aloud.  âWhat if I activated it, and then we meld it to your badge, like a materia?â
The other two women looked at her with an expression that told Ana they had no idea what she just said. The auri sighed. Â âWe attach it to the badge after I activate it.â
Stormy raised her hand, starting to ask âwhat is a materia-â when the Commander elbowed her to shut up, then nodded. Â âAlright, letâs try that.â
The women gathered around, as the Commander looked at the pearl in one hand, and her comm badge in the other. Â The badge was gold and silver, with a thin wire bent around in the shape of an arrow, and two gold strips behind it. Â She shrugged, then shoved the pearl between the two gold strips in the center of the badge.
Anafenza and Stormy chuckled a little, and the Commander just looked up and nodded, satisfied with her work. Â Her tricorder beeped then, and she picked it up to read off the screen. Â âItâs Rafale; they think they have a solution and said to contact when weâre ready to try it.â
The three women all looked at one another.  Stormy spoke first.  âWellâŚif it doesnât workâŚâ
The Commander shook her head. Â âIt has to work.â
âIf it doesnât, alright?â Stormy shook her head.  âI do feel a little bad we didnâtâŚreally get to learn more about each other.  But this was neat.  A veryâŚinteresting experience.â
Anafenza nodded in agreement. Â âI..am sorry Jessika could not be here to share this with you. Â I think she would have enjoyed meeting you both. Â I certainly have.â
The Commander sighed and nodded. Â âWould love to be able to share this with the scientific community if we make it out of here. Not just proof of parallel universes but even parallels across time as well. Â This was incredible. Â I just wish the circumstances were better.â Â She smiled. âAre we all ready?â
After they all nodded, the Commander took a deep breath. Â âJess, activate your medicom; Ana, your linkpearl. Â Then, Jess, take the badge, and charge up.â
Stormy tapped her phone, while Ana took the badge and pressed the pearl in the center. Â She felt the small tug of aether as she activated it, connecting it to the lifestream, before handing it to Stormy. The blue woman held it tight, powering up her electricity again, then pressed the badge. Â It chirped.
âRafale, St. Peter. Weâre ready! Â Go with the plan!â
âWe have you Commander. MâRal tied the navigational chronometric sensors to the transporter system; we were able to trace the link to the tricorder, now weâre switching to the comm channelâŚâ  The woman on the other end gasped.  âWhatever youâre doing over there, I can pick out all three distinct signals for you.  Keep it up: MâRal, prepare to initiate transport!â
Stormy screamed. Â âWhatever it is, hurry up!â
Anafenza looked around; the creeping Nothing was closing in faster. Â Even the tree in the center was starting to disappear. Â She grit her teeth, her scar suddenly burning.
A gravelly voice came across now.  âPositive lock through the aether interference, initiating quantum transport in fiveâŚfourâŚthreeâŚâ
Anafenza shrieked, the burning was far greater.  She could see the dark aether begin to roll off of her body now, in the same way it was rolling off the tree before.  Her vision blurred, and she felt like she was reaching out in the lifestream, her aether chasing something unseen, searchingâŚ
âTwoâŚoneâŚenergize!â
Ana screamed over the sound of chimes in the air, and a swirling vortex of lights wrapped itself around each of the three women. Â Her vision was consumed with light.
Aha. My FFXIV sub ran out and my tire is still flat. ;-;

Go Away
This is the journal of Anafen
This is the journal of Anafenza Tetheros, of the Ejinn. I am a protector of the Ivory Tower. My mission is to protect the lives of the wizards of the Tower.
Iâve already failed. This is meant to fulfill one means of helping myself come to terms with this betrayal trauma. I have some confidantes among my friends. And I have purpose in my daily activities to help distract me. But writing to this journal - to myself - is the final act Miss Kerin recomended to me. I have no idea if this is what Iâm supposed to do or Iâm doing it right but Iâm doing it because i hate feeling this way. That I failed. That I hurt a dear friend. That I killed a stranger. i was used as a weapon and i happily complied.
It wasnât my fault, at least thatâs what Lyta has told me. Kerin told me. Kurenai...blames me. Iâm sure others do, too. I blame me, though I know I shouldnât...not for the actions I was forced to do, though. For taking the step and putting myself into that position. No i didnât deserve it, but niether did lyta or jessika.
i just wish I knew that this would fix everything
