a few years after the events of Endwalker. ending the crisis and applying a few well placed bluffs (most notably threatening Eorzea's leaders with Aurelle voluntarily giving in to the light inside her to get them off her back) earned the pair the very least they figured they deserved: a lifetime of tranquillity with each other, in the place of their choosing. Lyse, having supported them behind the scenes, convinces them to settle in Ala Mhigo; with Minfilia often seen at Lyse's side, wanting to help rebuild her birthplace.
Aurelle's aether therapy has started to show its effects by nullifying the risks of turning into a lightwarden, and by slowly but surely returning her to her pre-bleaching appearance; the most obvious change being her eyes no longer burning red—now about halfway through to their original cool purple colour.
