Ideas, ideas...
Okay, here we go.
One day, while on the streets of Ul'dah, you're on a cheerful little walk in the rain (because it's always raining in the desert in FF14 apparently... seriously pay attention to the weather I swear it rains there so much... but I digress!). It's a nice day, you're pretty cheerful, but a noise of a scuffle draws your attention and you look around the corner of an alley...
Within the alley, you spot four ruffians who've cornered a white mage. The white mage tries to fight back, but the men overwhelm her, and before you can reach them, they start heading toward the other end of the alley with her being carried and quickly gagged. When they spot you, one of the men disengages to intercept you and keep you busy, and the white mage takes advantage of that moment to struggle. They have her securely, though, but something falls from a pouch at her belt.Â
You have a brief scuffle with the lone ruffian, but eventually knock him out and proceed down the alley in pursuit of the others, but they're long gone. Looks like that lone one did his job. Frustrated, you return to the unconscious ruffian and stoop to pick up the object the white mage had dropped - a sphere of mythril, highly polished with small intricately carved runes that glitter in the light due to their facets. How curious.
Left with two avenues of investigation - seeking the origin of this odd sphere, and questioning the unconscious man - you debate which to pursue... or whether or not you prefer a third option, which is to set the sphere on the ground in the alley and bat it around with your hands with dilated eyes and a twitching tail because that's an exciting thing to do with shiny rolly things.
