A rather grim tool has surfaced in the XIV community - a tool enabling intense stalking. We share our opinions on the matter and discuss what SE can do to prevent tools like these from being made. We also read another interview with Mr. Ozma, even more talk about the upcoming second Pulse album, and a big update to Square Enix's Group Customer Harassment Policy. Hopefully next week will be a little lighter! Be safe everyone and we'll see you next week!

It has been 10 years since the first episode of Speakers of Hydaelyn aired on Twitch for the first time (to 0 viewers). Today we look ahead towards 2025 and beyond. The classic series are getting new episodes, some are being reworked, and a brand new series is planned for next year. We also discuss the Endwalker Collector's Edition sweepstakes, the Pulse Remix Album, and in MogMail we dive deep into the Mandragora empire, and Beauty and the Beast for some reason.

Among the topics are characters we want to bring into the MSQ and minor storytelling hidden in smaller channels in the game. Welcome!
