Before I start making up more book titles like i am doing for some trashy romance novels...

Any titles in the game specific to these subjects?

1. Aether control, theory and exercises. Anything and everything on the subject. Nothing advanced, please.
2. Staves and other mediums, preferably a study on attunements.
3. Fire

Relate these subjects to Thaumaturgy as well?

No exact titles for books matching those descriptions. Sorry! The closest thing would be Essences and Permutations - A Treatise of the Six Elements, which was originally found in 1.0's CNJ Guild library, back when Conjurers controlled all six elements. It was again referenced in the 2.0 quest The Greatest Story Never Told, and now rests in 3.0's Gubal Library.


Below I've spoilered other canon Eorzean literature:

Fernehalwes Wrote:Is there a mythology about the Twelve that isn’t mentioned in-game? (ex. Holy books, manuscripts, rituals, etc.)

Answer: Yes, a great deal of mythology exists. Unfortunately, a lot remains unreleased. The storyline in 2.0 should reveal much more about the Twelve, but until then, I leave you with this Fun Fact: perhaps you have noticed, but in several of the dungeons in La Noscea you will find locations on your maps with names like "Llymlaen's Folly" or "Llymlaen's Trial." These are, in fact, sacred sites for the followers of the Navigator--each representing one of the 12 chapters in the tale of Llymlaen's Ascent. As part of their worship, followers risk their lives to perform yearly pilgrimages, visiting all twelve sites in the order they appear in the tale.

The chapters (in order) are as follows:

Llymlaen's Folly
Llymlaen's Flight
Llymlaen's Tempest
Llymlaen's Clarity
Llymlaen's Resolve
Llymlaen's Bearing
Llymlaen's Trial
Llymlaen's Encounter
Llymlaen's Stand
Llymlaen's Triumph
Llymlaen's Oath
Llymlaen's Ascent

Quote:Encyclopedia Eorzea
Impress your friends with these beautiful leather-bound replicas of naturalist Marcette Manne's comprehensive collection of knowledge. Just do not allow those friends to open any of the volumes, as they are all blank.

Quote:Riviera Bookshelf
A sophisticated wooden bookshelf designed in the riviera fashion. Comes complete with a selection of seafarers' journals and recipe books.

Quote:Glade Bookshelf

Quote:Manor Bookshelf

Marcette Mann Wrote:Oh dear, I've forgotten my manners. My name is Marcette, and I am a naturalist under the employ of Eorzean Geographic, a publication which surveys the realm's wildlife.

Hope that helps! Lemme know if you'd like quotes from some of the publications listed above, I've got O'er Westward Seas, Over the Horizon, On Garlean Hierarchy, and Leather-bound Journal text in my screenshots.

here's a book one of my characters frequently refers to in his aetheric studies:Original Publication: On the Properties of Aspect Conversion
Author: Professor Lamberteint

Quote: A four-volume compilation of Professor Lamberteint's theories on the process of manually altering an object's elemental aspect.
and there's a handful of relevant titles referred to in one of the Postmoogle quests. they all pertain to thaumaturgy, though there's no flavor text or anything to accompany them, unfortunately.

Show Content
Spoilers for the Lv. 50 Quest: Guildmaster, Prelate, and Plottheir titles are: The Cry from the Depths, Thaumaturgy: The Yawning Abyss, The Lesser Key of Thal, and The Troth of Kings.

Thank you both!

Is the Professor the one you use in the main story quests/moogle quests? The one with the four students in Camp Drybone?

yes, the Professor does show up in the MSQ + postmoogle quests!

Lv. 44 Main Story Questline Spoilershe's the one who sends you on the wild goose chase to gather corrupted crystals to power the Enterprise's aether converter so you can enter the Howling Eye and confront Garuda.
in the postmoogle quests, he and his students have a misunderstanding at the bar in Camp Drybone. (I believe there are only three students, however - one in Old Gridania, another in Aleport and the last is near Highbridge.)
