Treasures of Aht Urhgan

While perhaps not as epic in scope as CoP, the Treasures of Aht Urhgan expansion presented a significant amount of story. There was definitely something to be desired as far as challenge goes – most of the "missions" were just cutscenes, and of the relatively small number of actual battles, only the last few really presented any difficulty. Still, ToAU gave us many memorable characters. Who will ever forget Naja and her "spiky friend"? Hey, at least she eventually gives back the glory crown.

My thanks go to both of the two statics I was a part of who through twists of fate completed the final mission on the same night:

Forbin, Kaimoria, Nolispe, Jonin, and Deyan
Aresfury, Jakaal, Nuclearmayhem, Zaephyr, and Koe
also to both Sophus and Yukonjack for stepping in to fill open spots in the 2nd group when Koe left

Amazing work. We (The FFXI community) have been wanting this type of thing for years. I'm especially thankful for the ToAU section. I finished all the missions and quit before AU came out, so I never got a chance to see them.

Thank you so much! I've been wanting to see the various stories from FFXI again for a long time.
