Words can wring tears from the hardest of hearts. Whether it's English, Russian, German, or Chinese, words are singularly one of the most powerful things in existence. I am both fascinated and terrified by them and the power they wield. By obtaining knowledge and proficiency in the use of words, I hope to one day pass it on to others so that they may become great in their own ways. Find solace, find happiness, find their calling. If I can do that for others, as words have done for me, then I will consider my life a success.
To answer your second question:Â I am indeed new to the game! I just bought it last month, and my miqo'te is my highest character. She's an archer, and I intend on going into bard as well. Healing and support classes have appealed to me in every game I've played, and it's really no different here. :3 I am also immediately available for some RP though, but will never, ever turn down a leveling buddy! It's not fun playing DPS Wait Queue Simulator 2014.
... First of all, that leading answer was absolutely amazing. Â I'm sitting here not even knowing how to convey what I want to in response. Â But I'm quite glad that I'd asked you that question, because reading that was both inspiring and thought-provoking in its own right. Â It's quite clear where your passion lies. Â I'm gonna try not to derail this thread by leaping headlong into how I agree with you, how language itself is almost a living entity that shapes our lives and understanding far more than people often give it credit for, and how incredibly fascinating it is to brush up against the barriers that words create and expand for us. Â But! Â I will say I think there's little doubt you're on your way to where you want to be, and hope you make it there~ Â
Second! Â Yes, good. Â I hope you're liking the game so far! Â Unfortunately, my highest 'healing' class is 22 Arcanist (15 Conjurer, and then there's 50 Black Mage, oops.) Â But if that's in your range, feel free to whisper Xavarian Mystrife if I'm around and you need more queue people, or if you just want to take down things quick and a pocket healer would be nice. :> Â As for RP, you can totally send me a tell about that too! I'd be happy to have our characters meet sometime. Â My character is actually a duskwight elezen mage (who's most certainly still striving for Aetherical mastery) working as a scribe and bookbinder, and he's only recently come to the surface to learn.. just about everything he can. Â He's a total awkward nerd, but also on the mischievous side, and likes to experiment and explore just about everything... that isn't crowded. Â Or terribly loud. Â ... At night. Â Definitely not sketchy at all. Â *cough* Â Â
But if you're interested in having your characters meet someone like that, feel free to poke me here, or in game. Â :> I'd be happy to play with you.
