This song feels like an experiment, like Soken wanted to give the Garlean theme different bodies in preparation for Endwalker, and it was very successful.

[@writershard5065]

It was so good that I honestly thought it was made for Endwalker. It perfectly captures the mood of Garlemald as the dream that was doomed to fall, because despite every Garlean believing it was about unity, no one but their enemies realized that it was ultimately about xenophobia.

[@ArekkusuAlex-8]

@@writershard5065 It was kind of a emotional surprised when they reused this theme for the camp in the Metro in Garlemald.

[@Kanamon22]

@@ArekkusuAlex-8 It's been a long time since i did those trials (rn im watching Preach doing it) and i completely forgot about that detail. Indeed is a nice surprise and probably will hit different when NG+ is available.

[@justinlee790]

@@writershard5065 I'm not sure if I'd say it was doomed to fall. Ultimately I think the Omicrons are meant to be a cautionary tale as to what the Garleans may have been driven to had things not resolved the way they did. A physically disadvantaged people, oppressed by their neighbors, driven to such extremes that they turn to technology to give them the power to overcome their oppressors. And yet, losing their humanity in the process and becoming a soulless machine of conquest that can barely remember why it started in the first place. We already saw the Garleans leaning increasingly heavily on Magitek, and also becoming looser and looser with their morals on Human experimentation. And ultimately, the base logic is the same. The Garleans tasted the bitterness of being pushed into the dirt and having the boot heels of others press them deeper into the muck. As a people they have deep scars from that past oppression, and they'll do anything never to experience it again. Even if that means conquering everyone and everything else until they are all Garlemald. The same road that took the Omicrons from being a frail struggling species to a galactic plague stripping worlds clean in the pursuit of growth and improvement.

I love the use of the Garlean theme motif in this. Normally it comes off as like, comically evil (almost like the Empire theme from Star Wars). However, when put in this context of this somber and serious music, it makes it very haunting.

That’s exactly how I feel about it too. The beginning is almost haunting. That one note that just sounds off has such an impact.

[@絶し不変なる殺戮の地平]

I think the Sorrow of Werlyt might be my favorite series of chronicle quests so far. Gaius' internal conflict between his beliefs and the reality of his actions is told in very few words and with not a single tear shed, but says more than enough about the pain he has gone through ever since his defeat, even before considering the fact that he had to watch two of his own beloved children die so far, with only three left. The final scene of this particular addition to the Werlyt story is possibly the most uncomfortable I've felt while playing this game-and I'm CRAVING for more moments like that. I really can't wait for the next EX and to see how deeper and deeper into soul-crushing despair these quests take us.

[@Kiyannidirl]

That shit hurted.

[@Dragon359]

There were things he was probably right on, regarding the 'Twelve' as nothing more than primals no different than what we had faced before, but his decisions made while in the Empire have certainly put a lot of things within him in conflict, as you said. I really do want to see more as well in terms of how all this plays out.

@smogelish makes much sense since next expansion will probably be garlemald and afaik terncliff is the area on the other side of the border between us and garlemald no? So yea, probably the starting area.

[@seitheinsane856]

@@ZurilasZone From what I understand Terncliff is still a long ways out from Garlemald, i think it's on the coast of Werlyt if I'm not mistaken. We hopefully will see more of it, but I don't think it's super close to Garlemald itself.

[@Elban19]

Yeah, it was to show us what's coming. Like a pre-patch area.

[@AshramIndustries]

And there's also the red-zone transition dotted line that's in a section at the very back of the Resistance HQ at the border of the Ghimlyt Dark (it's normally blue when you can move). Now if Yoshida and co. didn't want us to see it, he would've simply walled it off with palings/actual fencing (this trick is actually used in Praetorium quite a bit to give a sense of linearity, despite the fact that the dungeon itself is designed akin to a proper overworld building). But the fact that he allowed us to see the zone line but not go past it indicates that eventually we WILL be able to.

[@Aitomy]

Incredibly detailed and specially beautiful. I felt as if everything there was out of place for the game we were used to play. I would even say no assets were recycled and that maybe, it was just a piece of what we will be having for the next expansion.

[@solidant3]

What a lovely song. It’s included in the just-released EP2 and titled “And Love You Shall Find.”

[@NaitomeIya]

Absolutely loved this track from the station. As those who did Sorrow of Werlyt before EW love how this song was reused in the station because of how it evokes the feeling of a dream doomed to fail, it was impactful for me to encounter this track in Terncliff, having associated it with the sh storm that we experience in our time in the capital.

[@Venoix]

This track gives me so much hope that the leitmotif from Praetorium's theme, Penitus, will make it into the next expansion a lot. Every time it appears I love it. The Burn's "A Land Long Dead" is greatly done too. What strikes me as most beautiful about this track in particular though is the woman softly wailing. It's speaks of a land that, whilst we have been lead to believe that we should hate it, still harbours humanity, much like Eorzea. All of Garlemald isn't evil, and I am sure we'll see more of that in 6.0. With how Shadowbringers was handled, I am certain we are going to be in for A LOT OF FEELS!

[@HCSR2]

What an excellent post. Thank you for pointing out the similarities, I hadn't picked up on it and now will keep my ears peeled for it.

[@jonpowers4318]

Hell yes. This song is so hauntingly beautiful q.q Sometimes I get frustrated with reused enemies in dungeons, choices that don't seem to matter or restrictions on gear/loot, but sometimes certain areas, quests, or songs come that are an absolute treat and make me feel like we don't deserve some of the stuff in the game. Shadowbringers was so good and I wish I could thank every dev that worked on it for pushing so hard to bring us such an amazing expansion.

[@rexellate]

Yes! I noticed that too. So very, very excited for what's coming. Also got a very "Greek" feel from this town visually. 6.0 is shaping up to be one heck of a ride and we know just about nothing about it.

I love it. It sounds so haunting and disconcerting with the Garlean theme mixed in, almost like there's something wrong about the area. With how the Garleans abandoned it and turned tail and ran, I'm hoping to see more areas like it in 6.0, where the Empire has been forced to retreat and we see the populace trying to deal with that and pick up their normal life again, wondering if the Garleans will stay gone this time.

[@Tetsaga]

[@rossmallo]

This music and these visuals are powerful on a truly unfathomable level - They have somehow, beyond all possibility, made me feel like another Garlean-themed expansion might - *might* - actually be interesting.

[@Venoix]

I wasn't interested in a Garlean themed expansion initially, especially coming off the back of Shadowbringers, but I feel like if SE develops the expansion so that we can see the humanity behind the Garleans, and make them relatable, it will be a real treat! We already know that they were established by the Ascians, Emet-Selch in particular, so we may see echos of him throughout the expansion, too.

According to the *FINAL FANTASY XIV: SHADOWBRINGERS - EP2* OST, this theme is called: *And Love You Shall Find*

[@Kiyosuki]

I was brought in by being able to control draconic Double Zeta Gundam. But I stayed for the look of this town and nice but eerie theme. It's gonna be really, REALLY tough to follow Shadowbringers and I've been tempted to think that we've already seen all there is to see about the Empire, but this does give me hope for a potentially long overdue Garlean Empire-centric expansion for 6.0. The town's archetecture is so unique compared to most towns we've seen, almost Mediterranean themed. Scenic and beautiful, but there's this underlying layer of new story threads and secrets bubbling just beneath the surface. There's this implication in the song to a really sinister calm before the storm tone. They're already building up quite a rogues gallery of pretty messed up villains for it. (and god the villain of this Weapon story thread is creepy and depraved enough with just the sheer super dark implications. Makes me think the time for classy, understandable antagonists has passed with Emet-Selch and there's just twistedness ahead. Especially with new and improved Zenos on the throne, removing any semblance of restraint left on all the twisted stuff going on in the empire)

[@2ndHokageSol]

I went into this quest line blind and was prepared to cry because FFXIV. What I wasnt prepared for was how the entire quest line hit me. I lost my brother a year before playing this and when I got to the end i was just broken down sobbing. Now the music makes me feel melancholic and makes me remember the good old days.

[@pandymandy]

I really wish Garlemald didn't get shafted the way it did. Bozja and the Weapons showed such promise for a great place to dive into, but instead we get next to nothing and a continent wide empire supposedly collapsing in mere (roughly) weeks or months. The EW plot for level 83 was unbelievably exceptional too, if not the best part of Endwalker in raw quality - if only the entirety of the empire we had built up to be faced was not scraped-down and crushed down into literally 1 and a half levels of plot out of 90, when it should have been a whole 10, 20 or more.

[@goldbane]

this theme demolished me when they first introduced it in shb, and it demolished me again when it was used in endwalker

[@SparkShadow212]

My mind was blown with how they used it.

[@GoldenMushroom64]

It’s such a heart wrenching theme

[@CptVanguard]

A rather entertaining thought entered my mind, Werlyt is very heavily inspired by Greece if Terncliff is anything to go by, making Gaius literally Alexander the Great conquering Persia (Ala Mhigo) which is kinda a funny realization. However this music is an amazing piece of art, the lietmotif of Garlemald mixed with Meridianum and Pretorium in the later part of the piano and soft female singing. Its a compelte picture of Gaius theme and his journey and Valens is an amazingly well written villian, im preeetttty confident I know who he is, based on the fact this is a refference to 7, its very likely, he is Hojo in 14. The fact he said "To Err is Human" is rather odd, possibly a mistranslation, or if intentional, a nod to the fact that in 14 humans, are called Hyur, begging an odd question as to why he would say such a line? The answer, Hojo, Hojo was very fond of twisted experiments exactly like that of the weapons and it certainly fits his character asthetic, you can even see in his lips and nose that he is not a very attractive looking fellow from his shadow suggesting that its just a more buff version of 7's evil scientist or possibly someone related to him in 14's iteration. Either way, I have every belief that By the end of this Werlyt journey we will probably be either facing Valens, or possibly seeing him in 6.0 he actually have the vibe of an MSQ villian even if he isnt the main antagonist, he could very well be our next Vauthri, a fate I do not see happening for Noah Van Gabranth sadly because the Ivalice storyline is gonna almost certainly end with the Bozja storyline. Werlyt is almost certainly going to end with tragedy, and sorrow, I wouldnt be surprised if it has an absoleutley pain inducing ending that makes us cry by the end of it because of its namesake, but I believe it will be a precursor to what is comming, Garlemald in 6.0 I do think Garlemald will be a MESS when we finally arrive, a biproduct of Zenos, and Funny Dan (Fandaniel's) actions, bringing ruin to the place and leaving it a land of ash and flame. If were going there in 6.0 I bet my biscuit that Sharlayan will be our main capital with Raz-at-hanz aka: Thavnair being our Eulmore, I also think we may see this as the first expansion where more than 6 zones appear in the game, possibly 8 or even 9, either that, or they may be the biggest zones ever added in the games code ever to cover teh majority of the world map. But yes, I do think we are going to Garlemald, in a form, just not the pretty super empire it is now, more a fallout post apocolyptic ruin, a biproduct of Zenos chaos inducing actions leaving us a broken empire to save.

[@lazygirl5653]

I high key hope the Bozja thing throws us a plot twist and we end up teaming up with Noah and the IVth Legion. Like, Gabranth was redeemed at the end of FFXII, it'd kinda make sense. Maybe the pursuit of Tartarus ends up being much more than even he expected and we need to work together to defeat it. Then having an entire Legion (or what's left of it after the Tartarus battle) guide us north towards the fallen Empire would be fitting as well.

[@jtspender]

I think in XIV translations "humanity" refers to all sentient races.

[@AshramIndustries]

What if they also bundle in references to 9 as well? I mean, Zenos' latest outfit kinda resembles the polygonal structure of Necron, and Fandaniel's "constellation stone" was missing chunks of its full form (a 'headless lion', as it were; or mayhap a lion with its 'head' stuck up it's 'ass'?) There's also the fact that they were very much flourishing all of that golden clinkage in the very last scene - generally, the only thing that really comes to mind is Thief/Trickster, and then my mind wanders to the reoccurring summon Valefor (more specifically, the origins of his name - a Duke of Hell that tempts other to steal, is considered a friend to thieves and leaves those caught in traps to their demise). So maybe some 10 in there as well? EDIT: Also, the fact that Emet-Selch took the visage of Hades, the entity that was originally planned to be FF9's final boss - not to mention how he, as Solus, looked a shitton like FF9's version of Garland (which, ironically, we fought his FF1 version's opposing force when Elidibus went primal mode).

[@dirtyharry0191]

MINOR ENDWALKER SPOILERS Nice to see this theme return in that train station in Garlemald.

[@Rewwgh]

This is a very evocative track for me. Perhaps more than average in XIV. First off, there is something nostalgic and intriguing about Terncliff itself as a location. It has that mediterranean vibe with its seaside location as well as walls and houses with white as their dominant colour. This setting should be cheerful by all accounts yet the track builds into this nostalgic sadness. I don't know what it reminds me of, but there must have been a location similar to it in another RPG at some point. Secondly, it took me a long time to finish Werlyt's story because the premise did not appeal to me at all. But listening to this track really pushed me to finish it. Even before finishing the tale of Gaius's children, I got this very specific image in my head from the song. That in this bright, beautiful setting dominated by daylight and warmth, there exists this profound moment that this music encapsulates. Of a group of friends gathered around a gravestone, silently reminiscing of the better days. And the sorrowful mood is being contrasted by the cheerful nature around them. Great job once again FF composers!

1:31 will always bring me to tears TOT!!!!! my mind just immediately goes to gaius holding his gunblade to diamond weapon's core T____T

[@nekolaina]

I remember , I went in there and I didn't completely finish the quest , I heard this music and I was like Spoiler Alert !!! "wait ,I heard this song in one of the EW place" As , I was wondering , and I realized , after finishing the weapons quests , there's this orchestra roll , "And Love you shall find" , and I played it on the Orchestrian. I didn't know it was from here , in this place. I was hoping to have this music and I got it. This music gives me goosebumps , when there's a vocal , it gives me the memories of both EW and the quest I did ( I think it's Shadowbringers , right?) And also , when you first enter there , you'll see a difference when you first came here and when you finished the quest , the people and everything had changed. I recommend you to do it , it's good , even though the weapons are hard (kinda~) , and some parts you would want to cry (because I did-) P.s. An imperial would like to do triple traids with you-

[@bate01071]

Yeah that imperial is one mean triple triad opponent. One of the hardest NPCs in my opinion to get the card from. I really like that they gave you the soundtrack rather than have to grind the trials for it. Super cool zone and what a heart wrenching story 😢

[@nekolaina]

@@bate01071 Ikr!

[@DeeRadens]

Finally, more peaceful Garlean music

[@TheSpicyLeg]

Au Ra*

[@DeeRadens]

@@TheSpicyLeg ah I meant Imperial instead

[@HollowiiMarz]

My heart! This is such a fire theme. Personal favorite 🔥🔥🔥

[@nekochiyu5060]

No parent should have to bury their children...

[@meteorwalkergg]

The Burn theme always gets me emotional

[@Venoix]

Me too!

[@khdayskh1314]

Its actually from penitus, the song from your favorite dungeon: the praetorium!

[@Waverse]

Just by listening to this music... I have a big hunch that the Garlemald extension will be like the Empire zone in FF15. Dead and desolate.

[@RougeMephilesClone]

But with more content.

[@gbtygfvyg]

@@RougeMephilesClone hey they actually at least redeemed it with the update. I still don't care for 15 though.

[@unproxv]

Also wonder what the 8-man raid theme will be. Maybe it'll be more mechs? More summons? Something completely new?

[@flamingreddeoxys]

A few weeks before Dawntrail and I can say though all too late… You were right! Sadly only got the focus of an area of 1.5 levels and some PRAY RETURN TO GARLEMALD moments in patches and EW Relic Quests, but still had a decent story nonetheless! The beauty that was going into Tertium and hearing this… it’s immaculate

[@mooxart64]

I still cry to this song. Bruh...

[@soli6026]

Hearing this in Endwalker during some scenes almost made me cry

[@crusherjoe8519]

It always play in the train station in Garlemald in Endwalker...

[@All4Tanuki]

Finally, something beat Alex as my favourite side content story...

[@bigppisha]

After Endwalker, this feels sadder and more hauntingly beautiful.

[@RoySamuelClark]

Here after that scene in Endwalker.

[@GbrBy]

This also plays in Tertium in Garlemald

[@jacobteague635]

First time listening to this after Endwalker and I just realized what theme it is 😳😳

[@ultimavermicompost]

I hope that all the empires new areas are this Erie

[@maxrevive592]

I came to listen and all I could do was cry.

[@Kuganurio1994]

I absolutely LOVE this theme. It's melancholic, depressive, but at the same time...calming. I could just stand there and...exist.

[@dhanihua6934]

I did this questline over a pretty long period of time so I felt somewhat detached from it for awhile, but once I got to the final cutscene I was bawling like a baby ;_; Amazing!

[@elinfini]

I wouldn't mind one bit if this was the theme of Ilsabard settlements (in a Garlean-related expansion).

[@GbrBy]

well, you kinda got your wish, with Tertium

[@elinfini]

@@GbrBy I know...better than nothing, I suppose.

[@eggsbenedict5753]

there's an official name now!! it is called "And Love You Shall Find"

[@Delicashilous]

The old forgotten World lies beneath or above our understanding. Understand, that past & Future are irreparable, meaning is subjective, we live in a Moment, yet we do Everything to escape this Moment...

[@amberorion1549]

The Garlean lietmotif present here is such a lovely encapsulation of the way Garlemald's shadow is looming over Terncliff. There's some real thematic stuff being expressed through this song, even if it's not doing that heavy lifting on it's own. I really hope we see more work like this throughout the Sorrows of Werlyt and Bozjan Southern Front.

[@FolsomC]

This is a great song! Though I have to say, I was hoping for floating faces like in the Gangos video. lol Thanks for uploading :)

[@darkmage102]

Without the Garlean architecture this town gives me some major Adoulin vibes.

[@MCRAVENATOR2222]

Was trying to find this one for so long in endwalker only to realise it was in shadowbringers

[@stars-and-clouds]

this version sounds like a little child is humming it, it makes it so much more impactful considering the story... ugh soken you mad genius

[@supremeoverlord0]

So, how's everyone doing emotionally?

[@N0VANT0]

pain

[@chlolyne]

agony

[@pizzapete2283]

suffering

[@gin9410]

Despair

[@GbrBy]

shattered after this gem of a quest. should be mandatory imo

[@SuccubiPie]

I'm glad I stayed off my sub box until I finished the patch this would have been a terrible thing to not experience blind.

[@TheMaxCloud]

The Official Name of this song is "And Love You Shall Find"

[@lekano443]

Man...This area is beautiful and the music makes it even better. Please let the future expansion be based around this ;-;

[@nicolasbernal6828]

I end the sidequest, this is one of the most shocking and disturbing side story i ever play.

[@JS-kr8fs]

_steps into zone, and melanchonic music with subtle, twisted tones of wrongness in it starts playing_ Oh. Oh no...

[@thebigidea9659]

I do love it when they let us go into other regions of the world.Makes you wonder what else is out there...

[@Raisuru]

holy shit this song is so good, i never heard of the vocal part in game

[@jaeusa160]

Beautiful architecture, I wouldn't be surprised to see it elsewhere in Garlean territory next expansion.

[@fisherdotogg]

Somehow, it kinda feels like Terncliff might be where we enter Garlemald from in next expac...like they send you to Terncliff and then you exit the zone into a field that leads into Garlemald.

[@lazygirl5653]

Garlemald is FAR to the north of this, two or three zones away would probably work yeah. I wonder if we'll also touch on the Dalmascan Front, since Valnain is part of Dalmasca (the port where we last saw Noah van Gabranth)

[@fisherdotogg]

@@lazygirl5653 Welp, 6.4 has finally given us a reason to come back and...yeah we really didn't do much of anything with Terncliff huh

[@networknomad5600]

God this hurts.

[@enexie_nxe]

The music and the location gave me major Altissia vibes

[@kuro5869]

The music is amazing but so is your glamour set! I need the helmet

[@HitodamaKyrie]

_And Love You Shall Find_

[@Havenscythe]

I just realized this is a rendition of the Praetorium theme.

[@timidshadow]

Another motif used in the song is from "A Land Long Dead"

[@N0VANT0]

1:42 hits different

[@magnovus1228]

So for those wondering about Terncliff, if you open the map, it shares the same subsection as all of the Ivalice raid. Not entirely sure what that indicates but you could definitely theorycraft a lot around that.

[@CallMeNoa]

They're on completely different continents. They said Terncliff is just east of Ghimlyt Dark which means it is right next to Ala Mhigo. With Ivalice on the other hand we saw a map in its questline and it's south of Doma.

[@Azdaja13]

Dalmasca is in Southern Othard, south-west of Nagxia, which itself is south of Yanxia. Werlyt and its surrounding areas are north-east of Gyr Abania on the other side of the Ghimlyt Dark.
