You very narrowly catch her in the act of selling her son into slavery in exchange for drug money and stop her. Her husband then catches up to you, explaining that she's addicted to Somnus.

The FinalBoss of the expansion is [[spoiler:the Endsinger, the collective amalgamation of the hate and despair of those who tried to find happiness in life, failed, and came to curse existence. Her song of oblivion would [[OmnicidalManiac destroy all life in the universe]] by weaponizing despair through dynamis. By affirming their will to carry on and find meaning in the suffering of life, the Scions of the Seventh Dawn turn the dynamis against the Endsinger and save the universe]].

** ''Shadowbringers'' was heavily beloved, but even it had a few flaws, and there was one thing that shocked and disappointed many fans: the new Gunbreaker and Dancer jobs had little to no awesome-looking gear for anything below level 60, and even then the only level 60 gear you get is the stuff they start with (which are simply recolors of existing gear) and the Shire gear from the very end of ''Heavensward'', so fans couldn't get gunblades who chirp "Kupo!" upon unsheathing or chakrams infused with the power of Nidhogg. At the very least, the PvP gear helps to alleviate this issue somewhat.

* LingeringSocialTensions: “The Dragonsong War” story arc deals with this trope. Following the revelation of what Archbishop Thordan and his Heaven’s Ward had done and the truth about the start of the war, Aymeric and his allies attempt to push Ishgard away from the troubled and antiquated theocratic ruling system and bring peace with the dragons. However, the church wants to retain power and the social order and many of the citizens can’t imagine being friendly with dragons after the war took their loved ones. And, of course, there’s Nidhogg, whose bloodlust has him refusing any sort of peace offering. The storyline deals with putting these problems away.
