Greetings, everyone!

Next week on November 10, FINAL FANTASY XI will usher in the epic conclusion to the Rhapsodies of Vana'diel scenario, and to celebrate this momentous occasion, we will be holding a special FINAL FANTASY XI and FINAL FANTASY XIV collaboration event!

Rhapsodies of Vana'diel is a three chapters-long scenario that contains appearances from all of the well-known main characters, and we're hoping that adventurers who are currently taking a break will Return Home to Vana'diel to see the magnificent ending.

All of the details on Rhapsodies of Vana'diel can be found on the Goddess's Gala official site.

The collaboration event, "A Journey to Remember," begins on November 11, and Eorzea will be visited by the main heroine of Rhapsodies of Vana'diel, Iroha.

Iroha has descended from the future where the world has been consumed, and she is on a mission to save Vana'diel from its current path to destruction - naturally, with the help of adventurers!

Why and how does Iroha appear in Eorzea? Well, I'm not about to spoil the fun, so be sure to check out the collaboration event to find out!

■"A Journey to Remember" reward equipment

Those who aid Iroha in Eorzea will be rewarded with the "Amatsu" equipment, which has been fashioned after her own armor!

The equipment definitely has a very eastern feel to it, and I'm looking forward to seeing all the glamours that adventurers think up.

We're on the final stretch to Patch 3.1 - are you ready?
