I am duty-bound to the forest, you see, and cannot attend to the matter, while Stillglade Fane has not the manpower to spare at present for an undertaking beyond our borders.
But you, Sounsyy─you may do what we Gridanians cannot. So I bid you journey forth to quell the keening of the elementals throughout Eorzea. And, as you act in my name, I hereby permit you the use of white magic. *Raya-O reaches out her hand here and Player Character begins to glow!
Take here this linkpearl and the Soul of the White Mage. The latter is an ancient crystal imbued with the light of succor─by its power, the forbidden art will be yours to wield, albeit within the bounds of your skill as a conjurer.
To walk the path of the white mage is to devote oneself to the salving of hurts and the lifting of misery─ours is the hand that proffers comfort. Should it ever come to light that you have used your powers contrary to this, be forewarned that you will promptly be dispossessed of the crystal and duly punished.
*The reason I added this is that Raya-O apparently unlocks my ability to wield Succor before ever handing me the soulcrystal in the next text box.
This is just what I was getting at, so I'm glad that there's a proper quote for it now, thank you.
If anything, judging by the way that she speaks of it after unlocking your power, and the similar way that she speaks of WHM's garments, the Soulstone and related materials are likely just a way to streamline the process / make channeling Succor easier.
But since she's granting you the ability beforehand, it's more likely that the Soulstone has less to do with it than assumed.
Also is it really necessary to go into the proving of statements instead of logic by arguing over the existence of toilets?
I feel like we're taking whatever personal points we have to prove with each other too far.
