Question about the First. . .

You know those 14 or so hours a day where you can't see those stars normally? Just add another 10 hours onto that.

What's going to happen when a person that's an AST goes to the first? Wouldn't they not exist due to a lack of night time, and thus no stars?

Stars don't cease to exist during the day dude

The stars are still there, you just can't see them.

But you can literally see the stars through the light in the sky.

Oh but the only star that really matters is YOU!

The stars still exist, they just can't be seen. Like daytime on the source.

They don't get their power from night time. They get their power by attunement to six of the seven heavens, each represented by a constellation that itself represents the two gods attuned to those heavens.

Dalamund no longer exists either but they somehow still incorporate it into their fortune telling.

The stars are still there, it's uh, just too bright to see them.

My understanding is that the stars are simply a way to attune to a specific "realm" or whatever it's called and that once attuned you wouldn't need the stars. In the AST story, we've already attuned to all of the realms. Otherwise AST couldn't be used in underground or enclosed areas or during the day. Furthermore, my understanding is that aetherial changes would only affect the shard or source of Hydaelyn, thus the other stars would still exist but simply not be visible.

Pattern of stars help them attune magic same as ACN geometric symbol. You don't need to see the stars if you know the pattern for attune that magic.

TIL there's actually people who think stars don't exist when they can't see them.

I'd love to play "Peak a boo!" with you

I wish they would made certain jobs being affected by First. Like BLM getting weak, until they restore balance, and WHM/PLD being overpowered there, that kind of stuff. Or AST had to learn the First constalations.... However since it is MMO, we would never see this kind of depths happen.
