19 Sun of the 3rd Astral Moon
If anyone ever happens to read this, I warning you know, don't ever pick up strange glowing crystal. This little blue crystal has been the prize of a lot of hurting and heartache. If it wasn't for the fact that She made me promise to keep and protect it, I probably would have thrown it into the ocean...or let Y'shtola deal with it. After all, she's part of the blame on me getting ahold of this...this...whatever it is.
I should probably start at the beginning on how I can to be in this rock and hard place. I asked my guildmaster if I could join one of the other guilds, mostly in hopes of working with the fishing guild. I figure it would be a good task when I just needed some time to myself. After a moments thought she agree, telling me that they had enough arcanists to cover cargo inspection.

That's how I came to be near the path that leads to Seasong Grotto which I saw Y'shtola heading too. Yea, I should have ignore her but I was curious as to what she was doing here. So, I caught up to her and asked if she needed some help. She smile and agree, though I pretty sure now that she only did it to humor me. She was actually out here to check on some aetheric readings that her strange necklace/device had picked up.
The Grotto is a small cave, the middle of the floor was a large stone tablet, and a poem of the sea. Y'shtola called it the Sailor's requiem, which fit with Limsa sea port/city.

Well, it seems that the golem that we ended up facing wasn't going to be the end of the trouble that I'm finding myself into. I can't help but wonder if Tanya had any of these problems when she first started as an adventurer. This time, it was a Goobbue that they sent after her/me/us. Not sure if it even the same person that seems to be targeting us. So, it was fight, dodge, heal, and repeat but we finally killed it. So, Y'shtola went to examine it and I ended up finding the crystal.
So, stupid me decided to pick it up. Que major headache and one crazy and heart wrenching vision.
First the crazy...
This huge crystal floated up before me, talking to me, but I was in too much pain to understand what 'she' was saying to me. Then a spot on the crystal glow and...and...

*paper becomes wet with tears* Tanya...my sister, with such a determined look on her face. She told me stuff that I don't understand, taking her place, protect the crystal, find others like me... it doesn't make any sense.

I only know this much after waking up from that vision. I'm still no closer to what is going on with me. Also, after telling Y'shtola about the huge crystal...but nothing else about the vision, makes me think that she might know more then she letting on. Or I could just be projecting that on her because I need to know what's going on with me. The more that goes on around me, the less I feel that nothing will ever be normal again
Then...normal has been gone ever since you die, Sister...
