I've figured it out!

Klyopađrå is the queen of the Khemeti Empire, which once ruled over Vylbrand, parts of northwestern Eorzea, and later parts of northeastern Xak Tural. Khemet was eventually destroyed by Xande as one of his first conquering acts upon his resurrection by Amon. The name Khemet means “the Black Land” and refers to the rich, fertile soil Vylbrand remains famous for today.

"Kemet" was the old ancient Egyptian name for Egypt itself. I never thought I'd be dealing with Egypt directly when I initially chose to base Allag on ancient Egypt. We live and we make new lore to account for earlier mistakes. 😅

I considered setting Egypt in northern Meracydia, but Meracydia isn't really pushed into until Xande gets brought back crazy and bloodthirsty, so.... I had to go elsewhere. Vylbrand is close enough and not terribly accounted for in the Allagan archaeological record. A perfect Eorzean location to put a non-Allagan country.

Kasỹs dies, PLUS A MAJOR TWIST THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING! :scream_cat:

Well, that might be a bit melodramatic. It doesn't change EVERYTHING, but it's neat and it's not in the original. :)

KASỸS
Come down, behold no more.—
O, coward that I am to live so long
To see my best friend ta’en before my face!
(Pyndarys comes down.)
Come hither, sirrah.
In Bõz’ga*†* did I take thee prisoner,
And then I swore thee, saving of thy life,
That whatsoever I did bid thee do
Thou shouldst attempt it. Come Mysg’‡, keep thine oath.
Now be a freeman, and with this good sword,
That ran through Kaĩsar’s bowels, search this bosom.
Stand not to answer. Here, take thou the hilts,
And, when my face is covered, as ’tis now,
Guide thou the sword.
(Pyndarys/Mysåga stabs him.)
Kaĩsar, thou art revenged
Even with the sword that killed thee.
(He dies.)

MYSÅGA*§*
So I am free, yet would not so have been,
Durst I have done my will.—O Kasỹs!—
Far from this country Mysåga shall run,
Where never Allag shall take note of him.
(He exits.)

(Enter Titånỹs and Mesalå.)

MESALÅ
It is but change, Titånỹs, for Oktoẁỹs
Is overthrown by noble Brwtus’ power,
As Kasỹs's legions are by Ant'wyns.

TITÅNỸS
These tidings will well comfort Kasỹs.¶

† The Allagan name for the ancient nation-state of Bozja.

‡ This appears to be the moment Kasỹs “frees” Pyndarys from slavery by “returning” to him his old Bozjan name. This is an older, trunctated form of the common Hrothgar name Misija, further revealing the character of Pyndarys to have been a female Hrothgar this entire time. Our entire team was stunned and delighted by this discovery when we made it at this point in our translation. This also potentially indicates a unique level of respect offered Hrothgar women that women of other races did not usually receive, as Pyndarys and later Mysåga are referred to by male rekhỹt titles and male pronouns throughout the text. The feminists on our team are delighted for Mysg’ but sad for the state of women generally during the Third Astral Era. Still, this is the reason why we chose to leave the pronouns as Morvelet wrote them. Whether for stylistic reasons, for historical reasons, or for personal ones, this is how the slave Pyndarys was referred to, he later refers to himself thus, and we have chosen to remain true to the original spirit of Morvelet’s play. (Several of us may have privately concluded that Mysåga was a trans man. We leave the official conclusion for the reader to draw.)

§ The full name of the slave formerly known as Pyndarys while he lived in Allag as the property of an Allagan patrỹt, which Kasỹs had shortened to Mysg’. This was likely an affectionate shortening, as Kasỹs appeared to be fond of his slave. Still, Mysåga named himself fully and ran like hells right after so… We are justly suspicious of any affection in an unequal power dynamic lacking consent.

¶ Holy shit did Mysåga fucking lie to break that motherfucker’s spirit?! I love this dude! —Maxx
To be free from my master? Oh yeah, I would. You can’t ever be nice enough to make up for taking someone’s autonomy. —Joan

Ms. Joan Arcwolf-Dhivri (AKA W’jona Erun), who wrote the preface to this play and who presently owns all known, surviving pieces of Morvelet’s work, was a former slave, so the translation team will defer to her on this matter.

Holy shit.... THE SHADE!!! 🙀

Villains, you did not so when your serwlån blades
Hacked one another in the sides of Kaĩsar.
You bared your teeth like opo, fawned like puk
And bowed like bondmen, kissing Kaĩsar’s feet,
Whilst damnèd Kaskå, like a cur, behind
Struck Kaĩsar on the neck. O you flatterers!

—from Julỹs Kaĩsar (Act V, Scene 1)

That word? Serwlån is an Allagan name for the sickly deep blue that colors ceruleum, what the Allagans called serwlỹm. It also happened to match the color profile of the aetheric arcs that formed the bladed edges of late Middle Allagan melee weaponry.

OMG I just hit another major milestone in my adaptation of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar for the FFXIV universe: Julỹs Kaĩsar by Liam Meri'a Morvelet.

It's Marq Ant'wyns' famous speech:

Friends, Allagans, countrymen, lend me your ears.
I come to bury Kaĩsar, not to praise him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interrèd with their bones.
So let it be with Kaĩsar. The noble Brwtus
Hath told you Kaĩsar was ambitious.
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Kaĩsar answered it.
Here, under leave of Brwtus and the rest
(For Brwtus is an honorable man;
So are they all, all honorable men),
Come I to speak in Kaĩsar's funeral.
He was my friend, faithful and just to me,
But Brwtus says he was ambitious,
And Brwtus is an honorable man.
He hath brought many captives home to Allag,
Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill.
Did this in Kaĩsar seem ambitious?
When that the poor have cried, Kaĩsar hath wept;
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.
Yet Brwtus says he was ambitious,
And Brwtus is an honorable man.
You all did see that on the Drunken Feast
I thrice presented him epaulets,
Which he did thrice refuse. Was this ambition?
Yet Brwtus says he was ambitious,
And sure he is an honorable man.
I speak not to disprove what Brwtus spoke,
But here I am to speak what I do know.
You all did love him once, not without cause.
What cause withholds you, then, to mourn for him?—
O judgment, thou art fled to vile beastkin,
And men have lost their reason!—Bear with me;
My heart is in the coffin there with Kaĩsar,
And I must pause till it come back to me.

And sure he is an honorable man.
I speak not to disprove what Brwtus spoke,
But here I am to speak what I do know.
You all did love him once, not without cause.
What cause withholds you, then, to mourn for him?—
O judgment, thou art fled to vile beastkin,
And men have lost their reason!—Bear with me;
My heart is in the coffin there with Kaĩsar,
And I must pause till it come back to me.

OMG I just hit another major milestone in my adaptation of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar for the FFXIV universe: Julỹs Kaĩsar by Liam Meri'a Morvelet.

It's Marq Ant'wyns' famous speech:

Friends, Allagans, countrymen, lend me your ears.
I come to bury Kaĩsar, not to praise him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interrèd with their bones.
So let it be with Kaĩsar. The noble Brwtus
Hath told you Kaĩsar was ambitious.
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Kaĩsar answered it.
Here, under leave of Brwtus and the rest
(For Brwtus is an honorable man;
So are they all, all honorable men),
Come I to speak in Kaĩsar's funeral.
He was my friend, faithful and just to me,
But Brwtus says he was ambitious,
And Brwtus is an honorable man.
He hath brought many captives home to Allag,
Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill.
Did this in Kaĩsar seem ambitious?
When that the poor have cried, Kaĩsar hath wept;
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.
Yet Brwtus says he was ambitious,
And Brwtus is an honorable man.
You all did see that on the Drunken Feast
I thrice presented him epaulets,
Which he did thrice refuse. Was this ambition?
Yet Brwtus says he was ambitious,
And sure he is an honorable man.
I speak not to disprove what Brwtus spoke,
But here I am to speak what I do know.
You all did love him once, not without cause.
What cause withholds you, then, to mourn for him?—
O judgment, thou art fled to vile beastkin,
And men have lost their reason!—Bear with me;
My heart is in the coffin there with Kaĩsar,
And I must pause till it come back to me.

What would you say if I told you I was rewriting William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar into a diegetic #FFXIV play named Julŷs Kaĩsar and set in the early middle Allagan Empire?

Because I may be doing just that. 😝💙

Beware the plexus of Thaliak!
