Valentione's Day

To everything there is a season, and the time to tell that special someone how you feel is drawing near. Valentione's Day will soon be upon Vana'diel once again!

Valentione's Day commemorates the story of a courageous squire named Valentione, who fell in love with a noblewoman regardless of their gap in social status. He confessed his love in the form of a gift, and succeeded in stealing her heart.

On Valentione's Day, the inhabitants of Vana'diel show their feelings by giving the person they care about a present, such as chocolate.

Still, it can be hard to confess to someone...
Someone you are so used to seeing...
Someone you always enjoy conversing with...
Someone you always adventure with...
That's why that person is special, right? But it takes a lot of courage to take it to the next level!

And that's where the moogles come in to help! They have devised a plan to bring eligible bachelors and bachelorettes of the three major nations together. Not only that, but they even claim that their fantabulous, splenderrific event (the moogle head planner's exact words) will help adventurers come together, too!

If you've ever wanted to try your hand at playing Cupid, you will get your chance soon!

One last word from the Mog House Management Union (M.H.M.U.): "We're waiting for you all with wonderful prizes that will let you show your love forever and ever, kupo!"

Sounds almost exactly like the history of Valentine's day, except that Valentine was a clergyman...and they had an affair, a bit of a no-no for a "man of the cloth", especially since she was also married. Yay for celebrating infidelity!
Sorry, never been much of a fan of the real holiday, I see myself having trouble getting into an ingame mock up of it.

Yay for the Charm wand(it can cast reraise on someone other than you). It will come in Soooo handy for all those CoP missions where the tanks think they're too good to bring a reraise item.

I haven't started it yet, but I wanna try it out. I might look up a quicky guide later, but right now I wanna try it out sans help.

It's about finding your manthra lover while your boyfriend/girlfriend cries about you not celebrating valentines day with him/her because you thought your valentione gift is a nude manthra.

Whats the reward?

A nude manthra.

Aside from the above jokes, is that reraise thingymajig the only reward for this season's quest?

Re: Valentione's Day is Coming!

I'm curious how much does the Romance Potion cure you? Haven't seen anything saying a number amount yet. Probably should again to see, last time I checked all that any site stated was that it heals HP. Not one of them said how much.
