I guess the oldest thing was the ongoing inversigation of the Emptiness phenomenon plaguing Vana'diel. It started innocently enough by a few isolated incidents, but it turned out a large, thousand years old ploy was unfolding, and me and the gang got caught right in the middle of it. Since our journey around Vana'diel searching for more information on the impending doom looming at the horizon, I've been thrown in a crescendo of events cumulating to a showdown with what claimed to be a god, no less.

I decided to work on my Blue Mage.
The road was long and arduous... well, maybe not arduous. I took a great liking to those Fields of Valor manuals, providing training regimes for faster improvement of one's skill in a given profession. As it stood out, a Blue Mage can make short work of easy preys, thus making the reward quickly accessible. And since the training can only be taken once every day, that actually gives me a breather in between two regimes. I spend that time reading up on old story books I never got to finish. I've just finished the tales of Jak and Daxter, 2nd chapter. That was a tough read.
Another event that plagued that last period was the departure of Bucer. Sadly, he had to undergo a pilgrimage of sorts that took him to the far eastern lands. During that time, I barely did any missions, whether it is for the account of San d'Oria, the Aht Urghan Empire, or the Crystal War effort. All my energies were clearly focused on picking regimes from Field Manuals and kicking some ass. After a while, seeing the consternation in my friends' eyes about my newfound addiction, I started dubbing those regimes "Fields of Whore". That sure got a laugh from those who know me best, and quite a few raised eyebrows from other Akai-Tenshi linkmates.
Thankfully, Bucer made a comeback recently, and we started getting back into our regular stride of events. Meilin has even taken charge of a dying Dynamis linkshell, and has.... offered me... *coughnajacough* to join her cause. I've had my first run last night, and though we had a small show of hands, we did fare rather well. I do hope we'll be able to pick up the pace as the shell grows in size.
Oh yeah, and I GOT MY FIRST RELIC ARMOR PIECE!!!! KAWAII!!! BLUE MAGE PANTS!!! *^-^*
